Anson Rudd's Anniversary.

Thursday was an anniversary of Anson
Rudd's natal day. We don't know how many
anniversaries he has had Of that day, but
we trust that he will have many more be-
fore he dons the robes of immortality. AL
though his outer form shows the wear and
tear of age, his inner form-the real man
is young and fresh, because his life has
been temperate and pure. Age has not
chilled and soured the generous and sympa-
thetic impulses of his heart, consequently
he is young in spirit. When he lays aside
the natural body his spiritual body will be
the fresh, symmetrical body of youth. With
some the reverse is true. The outer form is
fair to look upon, but the inner man is
wrinkled and decrepit. Selishness, unchar-
itableness, ungoverned passions, and a ma
lignant heart, have set their seal upon the
inner form, and it has become palsied.
There will be n meeting of some of Mr..
Rudd's friends, in his orchard, tomorrow,
for the purpose of eating some of his fruit,
in rememb mbrance of his birthday.

impericctions in original construction, and
is ncgg,, running successfully upon good,
l,aysng basis. 1t 10 turning out $4,000
wOktlrof bullion per day, and is doing it at
n profit, probably of $500, per day.
This enterprise is of vast Importance to
Cahon City in a commercial sense, not only
.,ecause of the money weekly distributed
NrgS our citizens, but also because its
success will in time attract otrer like en-
terprises. Had this enterprise been a failure,
it would have been many years before
another smelter would have been started
here.
To the men who have furnished the
means. pcrsevcred against all obstacles, to
the establishment of this enterprise upon
its present solid basis, all honor is due. They
iabored not alone for their own success, for
their success directly or indirectly benefits
