ORGANIZE K. P. LODGE A number of Silver City’s best known young men visited Deming Saturday last for the pur- pose of organizing a lodge of Knights of Pythias. Twenty-seven members were installed, and the following officers were elected: W. E. Brown, D. C.; Dr. R. H. King, C. C.; Harry Fleishman, N. C.; and Newt Bolich, prelate. L. A. Skelly acted as installation officer, assisted by Ed Hand, J. J. Bell, Herbert Martyr, George Brown, Charles Brakebill, Johnny Fritter, A1 Draper and Chas. Newsted. The boys speak most highly of the hospitable manner in which they were entertained by their brethren in Deming. All had a good time.
