informed by two gentlemen that the ap-
pointment had positively been made, 'there
was:no doubt of it." Mr.. Harry Pearson
still retains the position and probably will
for many day. His knowledge of the de-
partment is so great, and so correct, that
few men can equal him in executing the
manifold duties of that important office.
His long experience and his thorough ac'
tivity bit him admirably for the place.
