ACard of Thanks.


The members Of the Catholic Liter
airy Society,who gave a ball at the hall
Of the Knights of Innisfail, on the
evening Of the 10Th ult., desire to re
turn their sincere thanks to all who
contributed to the success and enjoy
ment Of the occasion. This applies to
all who participated, or rendered aid
in any way, and especially to the
charming and jealous ladies, who gave
and served the supper in such adj
mirable style. To their efforts much
of the success and pleasant recollec.
tons of the evening are due. Thanks
are likewise rendered to some who
bought tickets but were unable to at.
tend. Altogether, the aims sought
after were fully realized, in a happy
gathering, pleasant hours, and sub
stantial financial result. The sum of
1915 was realized, which will be
turned to good account in purchasing a
bell, which in the years to come, will
summon the old and the young to
worship at St. Patrick's church.

Death of Faithful EmpIOye.
Richard Taylor, colored drayman
about forty years of age, who had been in
the service of 0rgill Bros. & Co., ten OF
twelve years, died suddenly last night al
his room, on the premises Of Captain inc
I. Williams, on Cynthia street. He had
been i'll several days, but had the best
medical attention at the hands of DR.. Alex
Ersline, and was thought to be doing well
until few hours before he breathed his
last. This quiet, humble man did his
duty faithfully, and enjoyed in an unu-
sual degree the confidence and respect OF
his employers. He was attentive to their
interests, respectful, law abiding and hon
est. He remained at his post of duty
during the trying times of 1873 and 10,
and his fidelity was highly appreciated.
Captain Williams, member Of the firm,
was often called from home on business,
and could always rely upon Taylor to
remain upon the lot of his family resi-
dence as faithful sentinel and guard
against intruders. The death of this
trusty colored man is regretted by all who
knew his worth. The funeral will be an
nounced tomorrow. He belonged TO
Fulton Lodge No. l, and to st. Peter

of his business which is now very exten

A SAD SIGHT.

A touching sight was witnessed by not
a few yesterday afternoon. An old man
and woman the former an old soldier and
a cripple were making their way on foot
from Indianapolis Ind, to Wilton Iowa
where the husband has promise of work.
Both were in destitute condition, their
small amount of money having given out,
and they both said they had eaten moth
ing that day, their luggage consisted of a
bundle Of bed clothing which they used in
camping out nights. Our citizens can
imagine how comfortable that must
have been, with the weather below zero.
They were accompanied by a little yellow
dog, who looked like the last rose of SUM
mer In converse ton they said they
invaria bly, avoided towns or cities as
night approached as thus the wife was
free from insults, the husband not being
able to protect her. He said as they were
near their destination q couple of dollars
would keep them from hunger. This was
quickly raised among these standing
around, md they took their departure; il
was indeed sight to touch the heart of
the strongest, and they were without
doubt worthy of aid.
