Mayor of Leeds . The Lodge having been opened in the various degrees , the Consecrating Officer addressed the brethren on the motive of the meeting , saying that it was a most impottant Masonio occasion and of great interest to all Freemasons . Four years ago he had consecrated the Anglo-American Lodge , that had been established to welcome and extend the right hand of fellowship to any American

brethren who might be in London . Its mission had been amply and successfully carried out , and the present Lodge was founded upon similar lines . H . K . H . the Most Worshipful Grand Master had favourably considered the petition , and had granted a warrant for the Columbia Lodge , which he trnsted would have a prosperous career . He would especially direot the attention of the Officers aud brethren

present to the fact that they should be particulary careful as to whom they admitted into their Lodge ; to seek out tbe character of every candidate for initiation , and to reject him unless they were quite sure he would be a credit to the Craft . He was rather afraid there had been some indiscriminate elections of late years , and therefore urged the necessity of being careful . The Chaplain having

given the prayer , Bro . Matier arranged the Founders of the new Lodge in older , aud then read the petition and the warrant , which was dated 16 th January 1891 , to which tbe brethren signified their approval . Bro . the Rev . R . J . Simpson then delivered an interesting oration upon the extent of Freemasonry among the English-speaking peoples whose territories formed one-quarter of the entire globe .

After an anthem , the first portion of the dedication prayer was recited , and the Consecrating Officer gave the Invocation . The Lodge was then sprinkled with corn , the emblem of plenty , with wine , the sign of joy and happiness , with oil , in token of unity , ahd with salt , the symbol of friendship . The Consecratirg Officer afterwards proceeded to dedicate and constitnte tbe Lodge . Bro . Adolphns Clark , having been selected as the first Master , was

then installed into the chair , according to anoient custom . Bro . J . B . Cumming P . M . was elected Treasurer , and the following Officers were appointed : ~ -Major George Lambeit P . G . S . B . as acting I . P . M ., Col . John T . North S . W ., Alfred Cooke , J . P ., J . W ., W . J . Spratling P . M . Secretary , Henry S . Wellcome S . D ., F . Statham Hobson P . M . J . D ., Elias Jessurnn I . G ., Benj . Crnmplin D . C ., J M . Richards A . D . C ., W . Heney P . M . Organist , F . C . Van Dozer , Chas . Hubbard and Major Frigout Stewards , and T . Bowler Tyler .

Consecration Of The Columbia Lodge, No. 2397.

A Committee to frame the bye-laws was elected , and several propositions for joining and initiation were received . Bro . B . Baker proposed , and Bro . Lambert seconded , that the Grand Officers who bad taken part in the consecration oeremony Bhould be elected honorary members of the Lodge . This was put to the meeting and carried unanimously . On the W . M . rising for the third time ,

Bro . Major Lambert requested the Lodge s acceptance of a handsome box of working tools . It also transpired that all the Lodge furniture had been presented by varions brethren . Bro . Col . North giving a beautiful banner , Bro . Clark the gavels and maul , Bro . Cumming the Bible , Bro . Van Dozer the gauntlets , Bro . Frigout the alms box , Bro . Wedgwood the wands , & c , & o . It was decided

that the names of the donors should be entered on the minutes , together with a vote of thanks . It only remains to add that the excellent musical arrangements , both in the Lodge and at the subsequent banquet , wero under tho direction of Bro . Tom Hill , who was assisted by Bros . Osman , Lester , Stribling and Ward , all of whom kindly volunteered their services . At the termination of a very

tuchercho banquet , the usuul Loyal and Masonio toasts were duly given and received , Bros . Rev . R . J . Simpson and Sir Somers Vine responding for the Grand Officers , and Bro . Brackstone Baker proposed the Sister Grand Lodges of the United States aud Canada , a toast , he said , always given in the Auglo-American Lodge . They had present the Masters of many different States , so that the

traditions of the Craft were well preserved , and he trusted it might ever be so . He bore testimony to the energy and industry of the Amerioan people in Masonio matters , and stated there were now over forty-eight different Grand Lodges in the United States , with 578 Lodges , numbering over 560 , 000 Masons . Thus the two nations were knit together in one bond of fellowship , sinoe one touch ol

Masonry makes the whole world kin . Bro . George Hayes District Grand Master of New York State , in returning thanks , said the idea of having Anglo-American Lodges was a good one , though ; it originated in New York City , for when Americans came to England they would immediately be among friends . He , however , ventured to remark that Freemasonry was becoming too cheap , that not

sufficient care was taken in looking for quality , rather than quantury in candidates , and it must be remembered that . Masonry affords * q excellent cloak for the devil , although they could not help sometimes having bad Masons . With regard to tho advanco of Amerioan Masonry they had now a magnificent building in New York- that had cost a million dollars for maintaining the aged and widowed . They

considered themselves the second largest Masonio jurisdiction , but they would try even to outstrip England , as they would certainly not hide their candle under a bushel . He then described how they held publio installations in order to show the people aa mnoh as possible of the tenets of the Craft , and BO make it popular . It proved to the people that Freemasonry was an associate of the Chnroh , and tended

to promote morality . He might mention that in New York State alone they numbered over eight hundred ministers of the Gospel , so it must be concluded they were a religious body . The speaker ' s remarks were received throughout with loud applause . Bro . Major Lambert proposed the health of the W . M . and success to the Columbia Lodge , and stated that Bro . Adolphus Clark was no tyro ,

but was perfectly capable of filling the Master s ohair , as was proved by the able manner in which he had fufilled his duties aa Master of the Anglo-American Lodge . In wishing success to the Lodge he thought thero was plenty of room for them , and he did not doubt that it wonld prove sucoeasful if they adopted Bro . Hayes' advice , and wore careful whom they admitted iuto their Lodge . Let them

not forget that the Americans are part and parcel of our raoe , they all sprang from the same stock , and should therefore be doubly welcomed to the Lodge . The W . M . having suitably replied , Bro . H . S . Wellcome gave tho Consecrating Officers , and said they were hononred by having so many distinguished Masons to assist iu laying the foundation-stone of their Lodge , which was established to

afford an additional tie and an additional blessing to the Euglishspeaking races . Bro . Shadwell Clerke , in response , said that having bad tbe honour of consecrating the Anglo-American Lodge , he had p ° cnliar pleasure in taking part in the oeremony . The Grand Lodge of England were only too delighted to keep up attachment with brethren on the other side of the ocean , and would bo pleasod to

further any advance between the two countries . The toaBt of the Visitors was proposed by Bro . Alfred Cooke J . W ., and acknowledged by Bro . W . G . Lomon Assist . Grand Dir . of Cere ., and H . W . Turner j and Brrs . Cumming and SpratliDg responded for the Officers of the Lodge . The Tyler's toast , given at a late hour , brought the proceedings to a pleasant termination .

That , to quote the words of H . R . H . the Grand Master , the arrangements were excellent , went without saying , on the occasion of the inauguration of the new and handsome hall and sohool buildings of the Royal Masonic Institution for Girls on Thursday last ; and Brother Edward Letchworth , who , as chairman for the month , led tbe House Committee in making the necessary preparations , may look back on the dav ' s proceedings with entire satisfaction . The

new Alexandra Hall , as it is , by gracious permission of the Grand Patroness , to be henceforth called , is a magnificent Tudo :--Elizabetbau structure , and the stained glas 3 windows given by various Lodges are exceedingly rioh and effective . The advantages of this important addition to tbe school bnildiugs , for calisthenics , prize meetings , and recreation on wet days , cannot be over-estimated . —The World ,
