OLD HUTCH's EARLY LIFE.
People In Lynn, Msss.. Tell How the Great
Spectator Began His Career.

cP'S1sos~A o~0e~ 40 S0ASSh
Boston Special.
Some Of the old residents about Lynn smile
broadly as they read OF "Old Hutch and the
way be has been making things hum In Chicago.
They know Hutch" Of old, and tell some inter
estine stories relative TO his early days there,
for there it was that the millionaire began his
business career.
Hutchinson made his first start as q clerk for
Edwin Foster, of North Reading. Here he wac
paid $40 q year. His duties were to look after
the store, and, when not so employed he had to
mend children's shoes in the rear Of the store.
Mr.. Foster employed another lad in the store
to whom he gave $50 a year. Ben did not like
this distinction In salaries and he rebelled
against IL. The other boy was paid $40 more q
year because he could ''read writing hand" and
was therefore more valuable to his employer
than Ben The other lad had to get up early in
the morning TO make up the mail, which went
by the ld-fashioned mail-cosch from Reading
to Boston.
Finally Ben became tired Of that sort Of thing
and obtsiaed permission from Mr.. Foster to use
part of an old shed, which he built into O kind
Of store with . patchsd-up door on the side aud
an old window In front, whereuDon was in
scribed: "Ben Huichinson-Boo.s and Shoes"
Here young Ben made boots and shoes on his
own account. Every Saturday he would 60 10
Lynn on foot and buy stock and sell the shoes he
had made. He employed several boys about the
neishborhood 10 assist him. When he returned
from LyLn he always brought eoms ''gimcracks"
Win nun. "nlcn ne Wouio Iraue OF TO We BOYS;
and although he paid them money for their work
on Saturday by Monday. he managed to set IL
all back In trading with them. Ben was q nat
ural trader.
After awhile Ben got tired ct his small BUSH
ness, and decided to 60 into business 10 Lynn
on a larger scale. This the young fellow did.
While In Lynn be discovered that some men In
the commission business were making more
money than he was withous doing any hard
work. So he concluded to give up the manu-
facture Of shoes and 60 into the commission
business. which he did in 1850. in Pearl street,
Boston. After remsinlnR in that Office two
years he gave M business East and went TO Mil
waukss, where he started 10 general business.
What he has done since then Western specu-
lators know only too well.

STONEWALL JACKsONS DEATH
How Private Rankin May Have Killed
the Confederate General


TAUNTON, MASS, Sept. IA correspond
ent of the National Tribune of Washing
ton, writing on the vexed question as 10
whether Gen. Stonewall Jackson fell by
the hands of the federal troops or was shot
in mistake by some of his own mon, under
takes to establish the fact that the confed-
crate leader met his death at the hands of
a private of Company C, Twenty-second
Massachusetts, Volunteers, Daniel Rankin
ii resident of this city. TO learn how far
this claim might accord with the fact, the
Press correspondent sought out Mr.. Ran
kin, and his statement was like this:
1T is a fact that was occupying a posi-
ton in advance of our picket line at the
time jackson is reputed to have been shot
in front of Charlottesville. | had been
doing vidette duty, and lay concealed amid
the brush. Behind me was the company of
sharpshooters to which the Tribune cor
respondent was attached, and Maj. Mason
w. Burt, of this city, had charge of the
picket line. The night was dark, and while
in my position | could distinguish in the
gloom an individual or body Of men
some distance away, 1t was impossible
to identify their rank or who they might
be, assuming that they were known to
me. While in this position / heard a
entity the body emerged from the woods
about twenty yards from where lay. Ono
of the party. whom l a sumed to be the Off
Ger in command, dismounted and advanced
toward the spot where | was, followed by
the general body. Surprising Some surprise
was premeditated against our line, / fired
directly at the advancing troops to give our
pickets the alarm, and my bullet, Ipresume,
hit the dismounted officer TO whom | have
referred, as he fell and was picked up by
his comrades 7fi
las have explained, it was too dark for
me to distinguish his rank, il any he held,
and before | could see or hear moro from
his companions the sharpshooters in my
ear, aroused by my warning shot, opened
fire on the confederate troop, who turned
and fed, taking the man whom my shot had
killed or wounded with ihem II the latter
was Stopewall Jackson | knew nothing OF
it, but ON what | hear it is claimed that
it was near the position occupied by oui
company and under circumstances similar
to those which have related that he met
his death"
