THE ODD FELLOWS A PARADE. Thousands Participated and it was a Great Success. Baltimore, Sept. 22. —Routine busi ness, which has occupied the past three days of the meeting of the soverigit Graind Lodge 1. O. O. F. today gave way to the spectacular “pm Of Tire program. It was the day of the big parade and it was the most imixring a; well as one of the largest in the his tory of the organization. A conservative estimatt places the number of men in line at nire mil lion TALKING OF A FOOT BALL CLUB Likely that Brunswick Will Have one This Winter. The articles published in the News some days ago relative to the organi zation of ai football team for this year, seemr- to have struck a popular chord with loieal sports generally, and ihe organization of such a club is now being discussed by those interested. A team could very easily he formed if there was anyone in the city who could train the boys. We have plenty of good material here, but it would take someone familiar with the game toi prepare them to meet an opposing team. It is thought that someone will come to the front later who has had some experience in this line. Football, of course, will never ne as popular as baseball, but still, if a team should be organized here and games arranged with clubs of other cities, it is believed that our people would become interested as soon as they understood the game.
