Mr.. Drummond Hunt, of Lexing-

tends actively TO his farm every day.
Mr.. Hunt IL the fret man In that sec-
tion who employed Senttor James d.
Beck. About forty years ago Mr..
Hunt kept tho old Phoenix livery
stable. One day a brawny young
Scotchman, with bundle swung at
his back, applied to him for work.
Mr.. Hunt was so pleased with HE
straight. .forwardnes that he en-
ployed him, and sent him out to his
iarm. placing him in charge. Here
he stayed sereral years, working all
day and occupying most of the nights
studying law. 1t required two
courses for students attending this
law department of Transy,vsbia
University to get through. Mr.. Beck.
however, by dint of great industry
aud perseverance,, got through in one
course. He then began practice with
Mr., Shy, since which time he has
steadily climbed up tho ladder OF
reputation.

AT the very moment that the Presi-
dent was shot a child was born unto
the wife Of Washington letter car
lcr, and, most naturally, named Jamos
a. Garfield, DO. The singular part
Of the sifair is that the young gentle.
mans physical condition has rose and
fell with that Of the President. On
that dark Saturday, two months ago,
hope almost left tho mothers heart,
no near was Ter little one to death.
Then it rallied, as did the President
and 'has been sleeping sweetly and
doing nicely" as Granny Bliss would
remark. The doctors declared that
the physical condition is caused by
the shock given the mother atnews o.
the ASSASSINATION, which came at 8
critical moment.

Knights Of Pythiaa.

Of the world, consisting of G. j. l..
Foxwcll. of the District Of Coumbi ;.
Gen. " M. Ward, of rk, New
Jersey; h. s. Sanford, Of jackson,
Michigan; w. B. Brayton, Of New

John B. Stumph, s. NJ. Of Il. Mr..
Stumph has charge Of all the funds
oi the Supreme Lodge aud the ell
dowment (Insurancc) rank. and large
sums of money pass through. his
hands. Duiing the last year he re-
cieved from the endowment rank alone.
tho large sum Of $437.3l2 IS, and
paid cut s434,407 SO, Of which s4l6.-
23S was paid directly to the widows
and orphans Of deceased members of
the order. What a glorious record is
this, and how much distress and
want has been averted by the wisdom
Of the members Of this noble order in
making ample provision for all such
contingencies. Nearly half a million
dollars paid in one year for the relief
of the helpless. But more wonderful
still, this large amount Of business
was transacted at an expense Of less
than nsr cent. the exact cost being
1-S per cent. Whist insurance company
can show such economy in the ad-
ministration OF its affairs? What
business can be conducted at 80 little
expense? The committee made
thorough examination Of the books
and papers Of the Office; commencing
at the original report and remittances
from the. subordinates, and carried
their investigation through all the
books and found everything in pe.-
feet order. The members of the or
der con rest assured, that 80 long as
John B. stumph is at the head of its
finances, SO long.will their interests bo
safe.
We learn from Jos. Dowdall, S.
X. R. and H., that there are now over
10000 members Of the order, of
whom $4,000 are members Of the en-
dowment rank. The past year has
been the most prosperous since its in
stitution, and the outlook for the i'm
mediate future, gives promise of even
greater increase. May the good work

REDLICH, HECHT q CO.
A New Firm with unexcelled Factl1tiea
for Meeting the Trade.

Hecht Bros. & Co., of San Francisco have
opened q branch establishment in Port
land, where they will supply the trade
with the best made boot and shoes in the
market. Mr.. s. Redlich, formerly With u
Goldsmith &Co., will assume the manage
ment ofthe branch here, and that in H.
self is sufficient guarantee Of the future
success of the house. The new frm RNI
sell goods at the same prices as does the
is offered by this house, and one that will
be appreciated is the fact that when deal-
ers desire case or more of any desired
size they can be accommodated. Hereto-
fore cases invariably contained varied
sizes, and a buyer was too often compelled
TO purchase what proved dead stock in
order to obtain just what was desired.
Dealers were in consequence compelled to-
carry the sizes for which they had little.
or no call, although it had to be dong in
order to supply saleable sizes. Tbs new
entirely do away with this and the dealer
can purchase just what is needed for his.
trade and not be compelled to carry un-
called for stock. This also has been
great reason for giving orders to drum-
mers for San Francisco houses who took
orders for special sizes although stocks
here were first class and could be bought
to advantage, yet the fact OfnOt being able
to secure just the sizes desired, operated
against trade with this city, and lost to-
its merchants considerable business. In
terror merchants will welcome this accom-
mediation and doubtless shoWa Just ap-
probation for the efforts Of the new house
to meet their wants. ALI goods kept by
the firm are to be packed in this manner.

Denver. Col, Aug. 1.-The opening
Of the d. and r. G.. road to Durango
450 miles from Denver, in southwest,
ern Colorado, was celebrated there to,
day. This is the completion Of one OF
the several extensions of that road now
being constructed in this state. The
extension just finished is 200 miles long,
beginning at Alamosa, on the Rio
Grande river, and terminating in the
Animas valley. In this valley are i'm.
mense coal deposits one hundred miles
wide. 1t is also the natural southern
outlet for the rich mining districts Of
the San Juan, where but little develop
ing has been done owing to the want oil
proper transportation facilities. Other
extensions will tap San Juan on
the east and north, a region covering
an area of the state of Massachusetts,
and intersected by various ranges and
traversed by many rivers. At present
1000 men are employed On these ex.
tensions, and abont three miles Of
track are laid daily. In April, 1880,
1897 miles of road we're operated. On
the first of this month S95 miles were
in operation, showing that during the
last sixteen months ass miles Of road
have been completed. These roads are
being built in a mountainous country,
and will tap sections Of the state rich
in mineral esources. Eight hundred
and fifty miles more Of road are now un-
der contract, and construction Is being
pushed as far as the Utah border. The
extension to Gunnison City will b
complexion Monday next. The othel
extensions to mining camps are being
pressed forward to completion. The
increase Of miles of road operated, and
the great development of the industries
Of the state, have caused a proportions
ate increase in the earnings. In 1880
the gross earnings for seven months
ending July 31st were 81 ,439, AGO. 40;
for the same time in 1881, 49, 04,.

A Sure Cure Found at Last. No One

A sure cure for the Blind, Bleeding,
Itching and liberated Piles has been
discovered by DIR. Williams ian Indian
remedy, called DIR. Williams Indian
Ointment. A single box has cured the
worst chronic cases of twenty-five and
thirty years standing. No one need
suffer live minutes after applying this
wonderful soothing medicine. Lotions,
instruments and electuaries do more
harm than good. Williams Ointment
absorbs the tumors, allays the intense
itching particularly at night after get
ting warm in bed), acts as a poultice,
gives instant and painless ralief, and Is
prepared only for the piles, itching of
the private parts, and nothing else.

comets tails are not material, but per-

Of the cometof 1843. at the distance of

matter would remain a single instant
