Testimony All in in the Childs Koehler Contest. (Special to the Eagle.) Long Island City, L. February 8 Considerable excitement was occasioned in the vicinity of the city hall tils morning by the appearance of a big black mongrel dog which ran aimlessly around the vicinity snapping at almost everything it came across. Before a bullet from the pistol of Special Officer William Ousing put an eCd to the dog's existence the crazed animal bit several other dogs, tore a horse's nose and burled Its fangs In the left heel of Joseph Kavanagh, the 7 year old son of ex Judge Stephen J. Kavanagh of Pearson street.

The boy was on Jackson avenue, near his home, when he noticed that the dog acted strangely. He jumped upon a box to escape the animal, but the latter leaped after the lad, grabbing him by the heel. The animal's teeth sank through the shoe, cutting the boy's heel on both sides. Young Kavanagh screamed and several men succeeded in chasing the dog away. The injured boy was re moved to St.

John's hospital. The dog's next attack was upon a carriage horse owned by Peter Phillips of Dutch Kills. The horse was outside the city hall when It was pounced upon by the dog. More than a hundred men and boys gathered and tried to run the dog down. The chase was an exciting one and extended for fully a mile before the pursuing party succeeded in corralling the brute.

No one would venture near the dog until Officer Jjuslng arrived, when the brute was killed. SANDBAGGED AND ROBBED. Flushing, L. February 8 William Ordermann, a Flushing baker, was sandbagged and robbed on the road between College Point and Flushing last night. Ordermann drove to College Point early in the afternoon to make his weekly collection and returned home late in the evening about 9 o'clock.

Just as he drove on the causeway, about midway between the two villages, he was stopped by two strangers, one a short, stout man with a black mustache, the other a tall. lanky individual with smooth face. The short man asked Ordermann to change a five dollar bill. After complying with the re quest Ordermann asked the strangers where they were going and he told them they might get into his wagon and ride to Flush ing. The strangers took him at his word and climbed into the back of the wagon.

Just as tney reached Ham ay Dye works Ordermann felt a stinging sensation In his head followed by a terrific 'blow between the eyes. He grappled with his assailant, hut the effect of the blow and what he thinks was a drug of some kind rendered him powerless an'' after a short struggle he lost consciousness and was thrown from the wagon. A half hour later the unconscious man was found near his horse and wagon, which still stood by the road side. When he regained con sckiusnesg he found he had been robbed of all his money, nearly $200. The only thing remaining being the five dollar bill he had changed and which proved 'to be a counterfeit.

Police Captain Allan and Detective Slavln were furnished with descriptions of the highway men. Mr. Ordermann is not seriously hurt, but badly bruised as a result of his rough treatment. THE CHILDS KOBHLER CONTEST. Long Island City, L.

February A few days ago Deputy Sheriff Duryea of Great Neck levied an attachment on the interest of T. W.

Dr KennedyThe Music, Singing, Decorations and Speeches. Last night's welcome to Most Worshipful John Stewart, grand master of masons in this state, given in the Forty seventh regiment armory, Marcy avenue, was an event of unusual importance in the history cf free masonry in Brooklyn.

The reception to the most worshipful grand master was tendered by the lodges of the second masonic district. There are about 3,300 masons in this district and receptions of a like kind have been conducted in halls or lodge rooms where from 300 to 500 members of the craft and their friends found anything but comfortable accommodation. It was this that led the officers of the second district, under the direction of Right Worshipful Matthew C.Carswell, district deputy grand master, to make special preparations for last night's event. It was expected that about 2,500 people would be present, but the number that converged on the armory by 8:30 last night easily doubled that figure. During the entrance hour, after the doors were thrown open there was a jam of masons and their women friends in the corridor of the armory that embarrassed the officers and confused matters a little.

By 8:45, when these who had come were seated, the auditorium, which seats 3,000, was filled, some 1,500 more were in the galleries, while very soon after the aisles and side spaces were crowded with people standing. Some enthusiastic men who figured the accommodations of the armor)" at 8,000 said that there were more than that present, but a conservative estimate placed the audience at 6,000. The congregating of so large a number of people was impressive. Mason3 in regalia of the craft flitted everywhere and they had all the work they could to do. Professor Louis Borjes' Forty seventh regiment band Dlaved a number of airs.

The reception committee comprised Right Worshipfuls John H. Good body, chairman; Horace C. Sawtelle, Charles W. Hubbell. Thomas R.

Le Count, Alonzo Brymer, John H. Bonnington, William S. Duryea, John R. Schlick, Charles W. Carnen ter, Frederick S.

Benson. Eustace H. Wheeler, James Cornelius. William H. Sutton.

James L. Drummond, Elbert Crandall, Charles C. Lincoln, Richard W. L'Hommedieu. It was about 9 o'clock when Right Worshipful Mattehw C.

Carawell, district deputy grand master, ascended the platform and took the chair. The masters of lodges were immediately introduced by Right Worshipful Horace C. Sawtelle and they took seats on the platform as follows: No. 18S. Marsh, Wor.

D. G. M. Then a quartet of male voices sang "The Miserere" from "II Trovatore." Mayor Wurster, on his arrival, was greeted by band music. His honor's fraternal society connections include Hyatt lodge, Aurora Grata Scottish rite bodies andKlsmet temple of theMystic shrine.

It was an impressive sight as the mayor walked up the center aisle in company with P. D. D. G. M.

John H. Goodbody and awaited, in front of the platform, his reception by the district deputy grand master. His honor was in plain evening attire. D. D.

G. M. Carswell said: "Although it has been my custom to receive distinguished masons, in our profession, this is the first time that I have been given the honor to receive such a distinguished citizen as yourself. I regret that I lack the power of speech and eloquence of my predecessors, and therefore cannot extend to you an adequate welcome in words. Yet I can say that the masons of the second district feel the honor that has been conferred on them by your visit and it will never be forgotten by them, and in their name I extend to you a most cordial and fraternal greeting, and most respectfully invite you to a seat on the platform." Several announcements were then made by Grand Marshal James S.

Manning. The next feature of the evening's wcrk was the reception to M. W. John Stewart. The grand master was accompanied by associate grand ledge officers, the party being escorted by the De Witt Clinton commandery Xo.

27, K. which includes many of the prominent men of the eastern district. The chairman said in part: "This is an opportunity I have long sought. The honor you were pleased to confer upon me last June was an honor I thought would never be surpassed, but the privilege it afforded me this evening to welcome you is one that will be engraved on my memory as long as I live. From intimate previous acquaintance many of you need no introduction but some of you have come a great many miles, and we feel deeply grateful to you, and on behalf of over 3,000 masons of the second district, who have ever been true to masonic duty and loyal to the grand lodge, and on behalf of the twenty one lodges of the district.

I extend to you a most cordial and hearty welcome, trusting each of you will find in the enjoyment of the evening as much pleasure as we will enjoy in your presence. The mos.t worshipful, the grand master and the grand officers, invite you to seats on the platform." The brethren were received, when they stepped up, and were accorded the public grand honors of free masonry. The D. D. G.

M. then presented his honor Mayor Wurster. The mayor expressed a feeling of brotherly love for the brethren, and turning toward them addressed them for a few minutes personally. His honor was evidently suffering from a cold, and even had his voice eon good it would have been impossible for him to make himself heard by the multitude present. After a few words of welcome by R.

W. M. C. Carswell, M. W.

John Stewart. the guest of the evening spoke as follows: Right worshipful sirs and brethren of the Second masonic district. I most heartily congratulate you on bringing together this large assemblage of the representative citizens of Brooklyn. It proves that you possess the sympathy and respect of the people with whom you reside and that the gixxl work In which yon are engnged meets with their approval. And gratefully do I acknowledge the compliment that you.

honored sir. pay the otli cers of the grand lodge and through them tho fraternity throughout the stnn anil in their behalf I sincerely return thanks to the chief magistrate of the fourth city of the Union. It Is eminently fitting that this society that represents "Peace gond will toward men" should assemble In the state armory, the home of the National guard. For the teachings of the craft have always led to good citizenship and the patriotic support of the government. Indeed, tho charge to the master before being permitted to assume authority.

1s: He must be a good man and true and strictly obey tho moral law. To be peaceful citizen and render a cheerful obedience to the laws of the country In which he resides. Tie nuu not be concerned in plots or conspiracies against the government, but mtrlently submit to the law and the constituted authorities, pay a proper respect to civil magistrates. Work diligently, act honorably, render to every man His due, promote the general good of society and the welfare of mankind. From the very foundation of jur government and through the most trying period of its history.

It wns loyally supixirted by the brethren of the Mvs tlc tie. Not timidly with doubt or indeclion "No stinted draught or scanty tide" of patriotism but rull and free and generous, whether In the calm dignity of a Washington, the shrewd state munshlp of a Franklin or Hamilton. The sturdy combative heroism of a Jackson, a Putnam or a Wavne or the Tdmplo devotion of a Paul Revere To dav the promoters of charity and respectablll tv and the firm supporters of education are masons So we stand before the people of lirtioklvu as representing what wo are desirous will advance the highest Interests of citizenship in being true to each other ns men and citizens. I thank vou. brethren of the Second district for this welcome given to the grand lodge officers, and will retire by expressing the hope that this good work will not only go on hero, but throughout the civilized world until the human race is bound together In universal brotherhood.

Justice Steers Administers a Eebuka. to Policeman Farrell FOR ARRESTING MRS. FALLON. Through Spite Her Husband Charged Her "With Being Intoxicated and She Was Locked Up Over Night Flat bush Streets in Bad Condition Batli Beach Odd Fellows Entertain Graves end Bay Yachtsmen Elect Officers. Justice Steers, in the Flatbush police court of 800 Dean street, who had been arrested on a charge of drunkenness yesterday, and se i verely lectured Policeman Farrell of the Twenty second precinct for taking the woman away from her little children and causing her to be locked up over night.

Mrs. Fallon I testified that her husband, John, came home last night and. because supper wasn't quite I ready for him, left again in a rage, and, after visiting several saloons, went to the Twentyr second precinct and lodged a complaint againat her for Intoxication. Notwithstanding her protestations that her husband had acted merely from spite and that she had not drank 1 any liquor. Policeman Farrell roughly took her away from her children, whom she was compelled to leave alone in the house.

WANT THEIR STREETS IMPROVED. The condition of the streets In Flatbush after Thursday's storm was so bad that a number of leading citizens, among them Judge Alfred R. Steers. have appealed to the commissioner of public works to give some of thp more important streets and avenues in the Twenty ninth ward his immediate attention. Clarkson street, Lenox road.

East Broadway and portions of Ocean avenue are turned Into lakes after each rain that sometimes cover even the sidewalks to the depth of several inchers, because there is no surface drainage. Clarkson street, because of the heavy traffic that passes ouver it to the county buildings, is the worst of all. and it has been suggested that it could be arice put in a better condition by the location of a basin on each side of it upon the lines of Bedford avenue which Is not yet opened. ODD FELLOWS ENTERTAIN. Schaller's hall, Bath Beach, on Thursday evening was filled with the members of Arbutus lodge, I.

THE GILBERT DEGREE. BURLESQUE INITIATION FOR THE BENEFIT OF FAIR ARCANUM VISITORS. Gilbert council No. 1,343, Royal Arcanum, was visited last night by about one hundred women, the wives, daughters, mothers or sweethearts of the members, who had determined to find out for themselves what it was that kept Gilbertians out so late on the first and third Friday evenings of each month. The women had long talked the matter over among themselves and several meetings were held to discuss the subject of the late hours kept by members of Gilbert council.

Finally the decision was reached by the women that they would attend one of the regular meetings, enjoy the social hour at its close and then see their husbands safe home. Accordingly they assembled last night at Mrs. Rooney's, 333 State sstreet, at Mrs. Dr. B.

E. Mead's, 343 Pacific street, and at Mrs. S. E. Ford's, 598 Fulton street and In three squads descended on the Johnston building, reaching there at 10 o'clock, bringing with them a supply of cakes and cigars.

They were received by a committee cf the Gilberts and were escorted into the council chamber by Past Regent F. P. Mapes, Grand Chaplain W. A. Griffith and Orator James A.

Rooney, where they were welcomed by the regent, Dr. B. E. Mead. Their arrival had been so opportunely timed that their entrance was the signal for the beginning of the social hour with which Gilbert is in the habit of concluding its semi monthly meetings.

Brother C. D. Meade sang a tenor solo, after which Orator Rooney called on Grand Vice Regent James A. Rierdon, who made an address explaining to the women and the throng of visitors the object of the order and its social benefits. He concluded by presenting to Past Regent J.

F. Learey on behalf of the council a past regent's jewel, set with diamonds. He was thoroughly surprised by the gift and responded with "much feeling. Miss Minnie Gallagher, organist of the Church of Our Lady of Angels, Bay Ridge, followed with a soprano solo, and then District Deputy J. H.

Carr, an old friend of Gilbert delivered a brief address. This was followed by a duet by Mrs. H. A. Summers and Brother J.

A. Rooney, after which Brother W. A. Vernam gave several recitations. Brother Joseph Dames of Fort Greene council was warmly applauded for his singing of "The low back car," and then followed the feature of the evening known as "the GTlbert degree.

This was a burlesque initiation ar i ranged by Brother J. A. Rooney and Charles G. Balmanno for the especial benefit of the women visitors, the characters being as follows: Sublime ruler Dr. 11.

K. Mend; assistants, M. Dale. Franklin P. Mapes.

Worthy ruler C. G. iinlmanno; assistants, II, A. Summers, A. L.

Candidate S. C. lirociks. Gilbert's sacred oat W. Klinck.

Electrician F. II. Plump. Master of ceremonies James A. Rooney.

The participants were fearfully and wonderfully robed, Brother Ford In a Trilby costume and Brother Brooks wearing the garb of a broken down actor. Brother Sherman had himself so arranged that ho could make himself from 5 to 14 feet tall at will. Brother Klinck was dressed as a huge goat and the others were robed in many colored grotesque costumes and as the cavalcade entered tho room in a dim light and to funereal music none of the participants wero recognized. The degree was given in three sections, oach being more ridiculous and laughable than the other. The upshot of the work was that tho candidate was made the custodian of the sacred Gilbert goat.

After the degree refreshments were served and the orator on behalf of the council presented each of the fair visitors with a souvenir of the ocoasion in tho shape of a handsome after dinner coffee cup. It was voted by all to have been the most successful entertainment ever given by Gilbert counoll. Wor. Charles O. Grim.

On the invitation of the industrial committee of tho northern branch Brooklyn bureau of charities a largo number of the visitors attended a charity conference held at the residence of Mrs. J. A. Mollenhauer, 156 South Ninth street, yesterday afternoon, at 3:30 o'clock. The subject for the afternoon was a lecture on "Friendly Visiting Among the Poor," by Miss Kate Bond of New York.

Mrs. Bernard Peters, president of the committee, presided. Miss Bond, who was very attentively listened to by the large attendance of women and a few men present, referred to friendly visiting work in New York, which, she indicated, suffered somewhat for lack of volunteers. She then proceeded to deal with the treatment of tho poor, old and young. She instanced the case of Colonel Auchmuty's trade schools as performing good work for young men, pointing out the fact that many poor parents were not aware of the existence of this school and similar institutions where they might be helped.

She instanced the case of a student who had served a short term at the school and soon after earned $4 per day, and thus giving contradiction to the old idea of journeyman service. Miss Bond also commended the work of the Salvation army in some respects. She also favored the cumulative sentence for drunkards as advocated by Prison Superintendent Lawrence Dunphy. In reply to a question as to what the cumulative sentence meant. Miss 'Bend slated in effect that it was the imposing of gradually increased terms of imprisonment on drunkards, with a view to the reformation of character as well as appetite.

A short term might cure the appetite, but not the character. Miss Bond then began to speak of work among the women of the New York tenements in a very interesting way. A committee found only one woman who had the faculty of supporting a family in a healthy, happy way whose husband earned but $1.25 a day. One of the reasons was that this woman made her own children's clothes and there was no recourse to tho store. This woman also attended to everything that could be done in the home, while her husband worked outside, and the family the only one in the whole tenement was a very happy one.

A number of very interesting questions regarding the practical work of visiting were then put to Miss Bond. The Rev. Newell Woolsey Wells moved this resolution: "That a committee of seven be appointed, to be known as the educational committee, to which shall appertain the duty of arranging for public meetings, at which competent speakers or writers shall be invited to discuss such phases of the subject of organized charity as may be most profitable to all concerned, and such as may be especially calculated to bring the community into active interest and co operation with the work of the bureau." The resolution was carried unanimously. The committee appolned were the Rev. Newell Woolsey Wells, Mrs.

Bernard Peters. Mrs. Herbert F. Gunnison. Mrs.

J. A. Mollenhauer, Mrs. Henry J. Vogel.

W. J. Nichols, general secretary of the bureau, and Mrs. S. E.

Ten ney. Tea was afterward served. SIDE DOOR MEETING IN GREENPOINT. The clergy of Greenpolnt have decided to act in concert in the matter of the anti side door crusade. A call was issued early this week to all the ministers of the district, requesting them to attend a meeting to discuss what action should be taken, in the Noble street Presbyterian church last Wednesday evening.

The call was signed by the Rev. Dr. R. D. Sproull, Noble street Presbyterian church, and the Rev.

W. A. Leigbton of the First Methodist Episcopal church. Among those vho, it. is said, received the call were the Reift John Haeger, Independent Congregational church: the Rev.

Lewis Francis, Reformed church, Kent street; the Rev. F. W. Oswald, St. John's Lutheran church: the Rev.

Father F. P. O'Hare, St Anthony's Roman Catholic church: the Rev. Harvey E. Burnes, Tabernacle Methodist Episcopal church; the Rev.

John Finch, Noble street Baptist church: the Rev. J. E. Everingham, Christian Church of the Evangel the 'Rev. A.

B. McLauren. Union avenue Baptist church; the Rev.W. Miller Ma grath. Reformed Episcopal Church of the Redeemer; the Rev.

John J. Arnaud. Orchard Primitive Methodist church: the Rev. A. E.

Wright, Third Unlversalist church; the Rev. Benedict Earth, St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church, and the Rev. R. W.

Cochrane of the Church of the Ascension. A committee was appointed to arrange for a public mass meeting to be held in the Tabernacle church, Manhattan avenue, Greenpoint, Monday night week. Leading pastors rem different city churches will be invited, and it Is hoped that the Rev. Drs. Meredith and Kent will be present and speak.

One of the principal addresses will be made by the Rev. Harvey E. Burnes of the Tabernacle church. A series of resolutions will be presented for adoption, expressing the opinion of the people of the Seventeenth ward on the Sunday side doors. The Rev.

Dr. Sproull, who was seen by a reporter of the Eagle yesterday, had this to say as to the meeting of the clergy: "The meeting was generally of a harmonious character. There was no difference of opinion among us as to the object of the call, but. there was some difference as to how to best attain the objects in view. Some thought it would be best to have a series of educational meeting from week to week, while others thought that the objects in view might best be attained by simultaneous meetings in the different churches and addresses by the pastors.

Finally, however, the resolution in favor of a mass meeting was adopted without a dissenting voice." The meeting promises to be one of the most crowded and interesting in the history of Greenpoint.
