The new singing society of the Danish Brotherhood was baptized "Magneten" (The Magnet) at a meeting in Scandia Hall May 23. The choice was between that name and "Brage" or "Idealet". About six hundred persons were present and over three hundred votes were cast.

Afterwards a play, "En Pokkers Tos," was given by Mrs. Anna Nielsen, Mrs. Anna Johansen, Mrs. V. Lindberg, Mr. Emanuel Johansen, and Mr. Sorensen. Finally there was a short speech by Christian Nielsen.
