How Georgia Senators Became Wealthy.

New ORR Trlbune.
A young Gotham lawyer, a descendant Of
Chief justice Law, of Georgia. was asked by a
reporter how Senator Joe" Brown amassed
his millions. Was it in railroad building?
mo" was the answer, Joe Brown made his
fortune hlockaderunning during the war; He
considered first and last, even before that south
ern Confederacy. Bob Toombs made most of
his money at the bar There was time when
Georgia lawyer received larger fees than
Toombs."

live, and his conscience would not allow him to

a New Rule.

Perhaps, boys, you would like to
know the day Of the week on which you
were born. If there are dozen or so
OF you in the family, your mother can't
remember the day, your father don't
care, your older sister is sorry you were
born at all and don't want to know. YOUR
aunt never knew and your grandmother
is dead, and so you must rely on some
rule as follows: Set down the year of
your birth less 1, divide by 4, throwing
away the remainder, if any, and add to
the date; also add the number Of DAYS
from January 1st to the date Of birth,
divide by 7, and if o remains, Sunday is
your birthday if l, Monday; 2, Tues

The knigh Is of Honor.

In the United States court at Cincinna-
ii OH Tuesday of last week, Judge Baxter
decided case Of much interest to mem
bers Of the Knights Of Honor. Henry
Tower, OF Missouri, made an application
for the appointment Of receiver to take
charge of the money belonging to the
Knights of Honor held by r. j.. Breck-
enridgc, cx-supreme treasurer, Of the
organization, and claimed by Brecken-
ridge to be now on deposit at the peoples
OF the Peoples bank in Louisville.
The evidence showed the Tower was
entitled under the death benefit rule Of
the Knights Of Honor to $4,000, and
Judge Baxter ordered the bank and
breckenridge to pay that amount into
court. He decided that it was not in
his Jurisdiction to appoint a receiver for
all the funds. The trouble dates from
the election of officers; 'at Chicago last
May, and Breckenridge has refused to
recognize tho officer elected in his place.
A proposal to remove the funds Of the
organization, consisting Of $25, 100000 to
st. Louis is opposed by the Peoples
bank, and counsel We're present 20 rep
resent Breckenridge and the bank in
addition to Tower. Similar cases are
said to be pcuding at other points.
Breckenridge's detection has not in the
least crippled the operations Of the or.
der, all assessments having been regu.
larty paid with ,promptness and rcgula-
rity.

showing ''the bright side of things" as
the earnest worker in tho great field of
educational progress in the South saw it
for himself. Before doing this, howcv-
er, we would remark here that it is not
little singular that so sagacious an OBJ

and also that he should have dwclt on

fucturcs Mt such speed as to astonish

dull, there being but little doing outside of the
settlement OF last quarters and the old years
counts. The movement to iuaugurate system
of monthly payments of accounts is making good
progress, it being touHd absolutely necessary b.
many that they should get nearer to a cash basis
an their business transactions.
The falling off in tie demand for goods other
than the purely useful ami necessary has brought
with is SOM emOarr tssments, eliminating in the
suspension of one firm dealing al articles of virtu
aud ornament, and also of a leading dry goods
arm.
There is feeling of retrenchment all around
aud though the operation will be unattended
with present loss, yet the sooner touch firm
ground financially and commercially the better
