Messrs J. B. Orman and C. B
Griffin, of the firm of Orman, Crool
& Co., well known railroad contractors,
of Pueblo, Colorado. arrived in Albany
on last Friday evening for the purpose
of prosecuting work on their contract
on the eastward extension of the Ore
gon Pacific railroad, says the Her
aid.
Mr.. Orman was seen by reporter:
and in an interview some facts of in
terest were obtained concerning their
work on the road. A portion of their
plant, consisting of seven car loads OF
stock and outfit, including go mules,
tools, etc., was shipped by fast freight.
1t arrived in Portland Saturday and
reached Albany on Monday and was at
once shipped to the front and work
commenced, about 800 men being en-
ployed. The remainder of the plant
will arrive IN short time.
"We will finish the work to the
summit of the Cascade mountains, a
distance of about 40 miles from the
end of the work now done," said Mr.
Orman, ''as soon as possible. This
will depend somewhat on the weather,
but we expect to complete it this fall
and winter
Concerning the report that their
contract would extend to work on the
road east of the Cascade mountains
Mr.. Orman said that it was not un-
likely that after finishing the road to
the summit they would take slice of
the construction toward Boise City.
Messrs. Orman and Griffin are
pleasant and agreeable gentlemen, and
are experienced railroad builders.
The shipment of their extensive plant
from Colorado to engage in work on
the Oregon Pacific road is sufficient
assurance that they are here to do a
large amount of work.

4" McGINTY."

1t is great pity that when McGinty
went "down to the bottom of the sea-"
he didn't stay there. He keeps bobbing
up at the most unreasonable and improper
times. Itisevident that McGinty won'tstay
down. A gentleman who is in every
body's mouth, so to speak, ought to have
his name properly pronounced. Some
people call him McGinty with the sound
Of "gin," as in begin, while others pro-
nounce the syllable ''Gin" like that of the
liquor gin. The former pronunciation is
the common one, but the latter is more
likely 10 be correct, for Nc and gin are
no strangers TO each other, as almost
everybody will testify, and 1t is not re-
markable therefore that they should form
a combination or partnership and call it
McGinty, and the ty suggests the idea Of
being little "tead," which still further
enforces cur theory. And If this is cor
rect, 1t is no wonder that McGinty per-
sists in trying to get out of tho water,
which is unpalatable. McGinty may be
pretty rough sort of a fellow, too, but
there is no excuse for trying to mix up
his name with SO many questionable and
unquestionable transactions. II the fool
killer should come along he might make
1t hot for some Of McGinty's friends.

John s. Thornton, NJ. D., son of Will
liam Thornton and Ellen Price, his wife,
was born in Upper Wakefield township,
Bucks county, Pa, March 90, 1926, and
was raised there, attending the public
schools until nearly grown-up, when he
went to the White Hall Academy, near
Philadelphia. For time he taught the
schools in Wakefield, after which he be-
came student of medicine under DIR.
Edwin Buckman, of Bristol attending
the jefferson Medical College, in Phila-
delphia, where he graduated in 1866. He
then commenced the practice of medicine
at Taylcrsville, Bucks county, Pa, and
continued it there till 1866, when be re-
moved four miles north, TO Brownsburg,
and in 1871 removed to New Hope, where
he followed his practice until within
few weeks of his death. In June, 1856,
he married Miss Eliza Ann Stricken,
daughter Isaac Stricken and Mary Stock
dale, his wife. They had four children
two died in infancy, and Mary S. and
Catharine B. Thornton, with their mother,
live together al. their homestead in New
Hope. DIR. Thornton was not only
faithful practitioner of medicine, but very
successful, and during the thirty-four
years of his professional life did much in
that time in the line of his profession.
He was member of the Bucks County
Medical Society, and was much respected
by his neighboring physicians. He was
not given to politics, consequently held
no official positions, yet be was elected
| and reelected member of the School
Boards where he always took a deep In
terest IN education and ably filled that i'm
portant relation. or his last illness, he
commenced to complain of distress in his
head early in the present year, which
gradually grew worse until In September,
when he was compelled to leave off his
practice and keep indoors but growing
worse, he was soon Frustrated, becoming
helpless and unconscious. He fingered
until Thursday night, December 9th, at
$50 o'clock, when he died. DR.. Frank w.
Larson, of Lambertville, was his attend
ing physician. Other neighboring ply
sicians came in council frequently, and
DIR. Mills, Professor of Diseases of the
Brain 10 the University of Pennsylvania,
in Philadelphia, was called as an expert,
and his diagnosis of the sad case was as
that of the other physicians, hopeless and
helpless, which Il proved to be. The
cause of his death was tumefactlon and
softening of the brain.
