The Masonic Review , recently issued , has a large sheet of portraits of " Masons for the year , " and gives tha honour of second place to W . Bro . J . E . Le Feuvre , of Southampton , Deputy Grand Master of the Province of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight . Tho portrait , which ia a " cameo , " is an " excellent presentment , " and ia supplemented by a brief biographical sketch , which , however , does not
explain why Bro . Le Feuvre is reckoned as one of the " Masons of the year " 1890 , seeing that he was initiated in the Royal Gloucester Lodge 26 years ago , that he wns appointed D . P . G . M . in 1885 , and was Grand Deacon of England in 1886 . Bro . Le Feuvre ' s record in all the branches of tbe Myatic Craft is a high one . Ho has served
eight Stewardships , is a Vice-President of the Girls Sohool , and a member of the Provisional Committee of the Boys' Institution . As a collector of Masonio literature he is able to boast the possession of the only complete set of the Book of Constitntions , dating from 1723 , in tbe hands of one individual , though the Province of Worcester possesses another set . —Hampshire Independent .
Not the least personage who figures in the alarmingly long obituary of the present month is King David Kalakaua , of tbe Sandwich Islands , who might have retained his pristine reputation as a " polished gentleman " if he had not made progresses in Europe , invented divers orders of knighthood , and dabbled deeply in American finance . The last-named operations caused bim to fall very low
indeed , and tbe only practical resnlt of his voyages was that he became for some occult reason the titular Grand Master of Egyptian Freemasons ! He was described in very romantic terms before the Queen recognised bim in 1878 , but eventually turned out to be a thick-set negro of almost as pronounced a type as bis buxom wife , Kapiolani , whose treatment as a Royalty throughout the Jubilee
ceremonies drove Holkar raving mad , and set all the Indian pnncelets by the ears . Society will remember Queen Kapiolani , clad in white satin and wearing white gloves up to her dusky elbows , smiling blandly on the whole Corps Diplomatique at " her own Minister ' s , " Mr . Sydney Hoffnung ' s , or , on another sultry evening of that eventful
Jnne , wedged tightly into one of Lady Goldsmid's throne-like chairs , and bristling with the many-coloured ribbons of the Hawaiian decorations , including one bearing her own name . Her siator-in-law ( another buxom lady of colour ) accompanied her , and she is now Queen Kamakaeha Liliuokalani , a rather difficult name to pronounce , —The World .
A Masonio meeting at which ladies will be invited to be present is an event to cause a flutter in every Masonic home . Many a Brother , even , will be astonished to find that a dispensation could be obtained to sanction such an innovation , but Bro . H . French Bromhead , Worshipful Master for the year of the Lennox-Browno Lodge , has proved that is possible , and , even now , invitations are on their way
to dame and damsel to take part in what we may informally call a Ladies' Day Festival in connection with the Lennox-Browne Lodge , to bo held at the Roebuck Hotel , Buckhurst Hill , on Saint Valentine ' s Day nexfc . The arrangements made are very complete . The visitors will drive to a private entrance , afternoon tea will be served to them in the drawing room , and , after Lodgo is olosed , those ladies who
wish will be taken to visit fche Lodge room and have so mnch of the imposing paraphernalia of tho Craffc explained to them as time and the preservation of the genuine secrets of the Order will permit . From tbe Lodere room the brethren , who will , we presume , have retained their ( Masonic ) clothing , will conduct tbe guests to the Baroneting Hal ' , where tbe ladies will have an opportunity of
judging what in meant by a Masonic" feaft . Thn M . sonic tna-ta will be given , though the presence of " strangers" will proclnde th-ur being received in the nsual manner , and , as might be expected , a programme of excellent musio has been arranged . As it is not intended to restrict participation in tbe Festival to members of tbo Lennox-Browne Lodge , but to make it open to any
Mason who can obtain a recommendation from a member of that Ledge to purchase tickets for himself and lady friend ? , the gathering ought to bo a large and brilliant onr , as it certainly will be one which will bo unique in the Maeonic history of Essex . Bros . Lord Brooke , F . A . Philbriek , Colonel Lockwood , Lpnnox-Browne , and CourtonRy
Warner are among the prominent Masons who will attend , and tho names of Lady Brooke , Lady Lyncha Warner , and ofcber *« have b- > en m-intioued as nofc unlikely to grace the proceedings by thoir presence .
