wv thS Beverage is Brewed and Pro-
pared For the Trade.
Book beer is the keynote of history
q beer brewing as it is understood by
the people of this day 1t is generally
supposed that beer is Of distinctively
German origin, whereas it is fact that
beer was brewed by the men of many
nationalities in many parts of the world
centuries before the Christian era The
Egyptians, the Greeks, the Romans,
made beer from corn and barley in those
ancient times. The lager beer of the
Germans was a Bavarian product and
block" beer originated in Bavaria.
We have heard number of stories as
to the origin of the term "bock" been.
and while they all vary as to detail, they
are as a rule correct When beer was
first brewed in Bavaria and for a long
time afterward in that and all other
parts of the world, ice formed no part
IN the manufacture, though it was very
necessary that it should be fermertsd
and stored in cold temperature. AS ive
was not relied upon to make this cold
air and as artificial refrigeration was not
ufcdIucu VI, DroWiuB was uOuo OHly III
sold weather, and the beer was stored in
chill vaults underground. Here it was
left to age until some time in spring,
say the latter part Of April or the begin
ming Of May, when the vaults wwA
thrown open and the thirsty public was
RECALLED with pure, wholesome draft Of
the foamy beverage. And as the G; st
issue from these vaults was stronger and
liable To go to the head, the people were
said to be "bocked;'' hence the name.
Another version Of the story is that
when the vaults were thrown open, q
buck jumped out and that gave rise to
the name and also to the widely adver-
tised william" goat who adorns the
"bock" beer signs Of the present day.
But "bock" beer season is time o,
sentiment to the Germans, and othei
people have imbibed the sentiment with
the dark and heavy drink. They want
"bock" beer at the proper time and
they will drink it then and enjoy 1t.

KILRoY-In this city, Thursday, March 1, 1897, Mrs. P. M. KILRoY.
 flat grim reaper, Death, has des- plated another home in our city, and brought untold anguish to the heart of a loving husband. The victim was the estimable wife of Mir. P. M. Kilroy The lady has long been afflicted with that dreaded malady, consumption. Only a few days ago she returned from San Antonio, Texas, whither she had been in the hope that the climate would benefit her. She returned home, her health grew worse and last evening her gentle spirit quietly and peacefully passed from 5ls earthly tenement to seek home in that fairer and brighter land, where sickness and death is un- known.
 Mrs. Kilroy was a beautiful character Though a constant sui ferer from i'll health, she bore these tribulations without complaint; and by acts only known and understood by a truly good woman, she sought to make those about her and tht world the better for her presence. Words are feeble to express tht deep sympathy we feel for the be reaved husband and relatives. The funeral takes place from tht family residence at No. 314 Wes Fourth avenue, Saturday afternoon l at 220 o'clock.

 c. F. Stiles, or better known in this city as Red Stiles, died at 12:40 o'clock this morning, after Q brief illness.

 Hon. J. " Adams, Editor of Daily Graphic
 Pine Bluff, Ark
 DEAR SIR:-Permit me through the columns of your excellent paper to return my thanks to yourself and Our i.ieails. Hon, Wm. II. Langford, Mayor Atkinson, General King White, Judge Jones, Sheriff Triplett, and Father Lucy and other genial citizens of Pine Bluff, for the many eourtesies and polite attentions shown to our committees during our very pleasant visit to your city, and assure you one and all that we were 10th to leave you. and that we will carry with Us to our several homes up among the Ozark and Boston mountains the most pleasant memories of you all, and will gladly tell our friends of your beautiful city, with the many evil dences of prosperity and wealth; of your elegant churches and other public buildings, and above all those wonderful machine shops, belonging to the Cotton Belt Railroad, wElch we found so extensive and complete that we were amazed having no idea that Ark ansas had within her territory such wonderful works, and of which we would yet be ignorant of but for the kindness of Mayor Atkinson. Gen. White and other genial citizens, who so kindly conveyed us to these shops.
 Pine Bluff or any other city may well feel proud of such enterprises.
 We were also pleased with the schools we visited and glad to see the improvements made by them.
 Pine Bluff looks very different now from what it was when l first saw it, which was June ,, 1889, when the steamer Trident, com handed by Capt. Houston, landed at your landing and discharged a iOb Ol liCiS Il VI HUI SllC heth blOut, II from Cincinnati, Ohio, at which city my father and family took passage on her for Fort Smith. While the boat lay at your landing a party of Indians mounted on ponies rode down the bank out of the pine thicket, and one of them lead q pet bear on the boat and sold it to the mate, who carried it on the bow of the Loat and said that he would take it back to Ohio with him. l was then nine years old and can yet remember how l disliked the idea of coming to q country where the forest was full of Indians and bears. l would very much liked just then to have been back in my old Kentucky homo far away" imagine there are no houses yet standing that were built so long ago as lS39.

 Therefore, be it resolved, by Gayel Lodge No. 532 r. and A. NJ, that while we bow in humble submission to the wilk of that Being whose ways are inscrutibe and doth all things well, we desire to express our deep sense Of the loss sustained in the death of one whose life so fitting ly illustrated the cardinal principles that constitute the foundation upon which the great superstrncture of Free Masonry stands.
 Resolved, that the lodge has lost one of it's faithful members, the county one of it's most charitable citizens, the community it's valued physician, and the family of the be- loved a loving husband, q kind fath- CT, q dutiful son, and an affectionate brother.
 Resolved, that we share deeply in the sorrows of the widow and clil- dren of our departed brother, tender them our heartfelt sympathy, and commend them to the loving care of Him who has promised to be q father to the fatherless and q helper to the widow.
 Resolved, that the alter and masonic lights be draped in mourn ing, and the members of this lodge wear the usual badge of mourning for thirty days. That a copy oi these resolutions be recorded upon the lodge record, q copy transmitted to the family of the deceased brother, q copy to be furnished the Sheridan Headlight, and py to the Pine Bluffff GRAPHIC with request to pub fish the same.
