   DUGRO, J.

The constitution and by-laws are crude, and express the intention of the parties in quite an unsatisfactory way. It seems that by the use of the term “heirs,” in connection with the $100 referred to in section 14, was meant the person, if any, designated in the book provided for in section 2 of the constitution. The "funeral benefit referred to at the close of section 14 is probably the same as the death benefit of an earlier part of the section. As it appears that the - njaintiff did not show a right to recover, the judgment is reversed, and a new trial ordered; costs to appellant to abide the event.
