Left No VIII.

The late Geo. Perryman left no
will and an application will be
made to the court to appoint an
administrator. 1t is understood
that his large estate is heavily
incumbered, but of course this
does not affect the. farm lands.

king to put him IN Damon's place
in chains for four hours as pledge
for his friend, that Damon might
give a last farewell to his wife and
child. The king granted the
strange request. Damon was de-
tanned by an Overlooking slave,
but as Pythias had proclaimed to
the assembled multitude the f.
deity of Damon, and had placed
his head upon the block to suffer
in bis friends stead, Damon ap-
peared. The king, awed at this
splendid exhibition of love. friend
ship and fidelity, extended uncon-
ditional pardon.
The order of Knights OF
Pythias was founded February
10, 1864, in Washington City, by j..
H. Rathbone, who was the first
Chancellor Commander and wrote
the first ritual. The spirit OF war
being then abroad IN the country,
the order was given much of the
panoply OF war.

KILLED BY A HORSE.
Bob Collins, of BIuejacket,
the Victim.

A fatal accident took place at
Bluejacket yesterday morning,
Bob Collins, a young man OF per-
haps 20 or little more, being the
victim. At ten o'clock, as the
people were assembling for Sun
day school, a number of persons,
including Collins. congregated in
front of the postoffice. A man
who was breaking probably five
dollar pony, to ride, had got that
far, where the animal "sulled on
him." Collins stepped up and
struck the beast a couple of times
with a stick, when it kicked him
above the heart. The young man,
with a smile on his face turned
partly round, and making a step
or two backwards and to one side,
fell dead. Collins parents live
south of Alton and his remains
were conveyed to that place this
morning for burial. The young
man has been farming on the
Henry Hill place, near Bluejacket,
for two years or so, and the neigh.
bors have formed a very favorable
opinion of him, and greatly regret
the sad fate which befell him.

Federal Jury Selected.

The jury commissioners of the
federal court completed their work
for the June term OF court when
the list of jurors was drawn in
open court last week. J. F. Mays,
of Fayetteville and Gen. H. B.
Armisted are the commissioners
for this district. These commits.
sioners were appointed by the
judge OF the court, one belonging
to the republican and the other to
the democratic party. Each COM
missioner prepares $50 slips on
each of which is the name of some
eligible juror living in the district.
These slips are placed in box
and taken into court and here each
commissioner draws alternately
until the list of sixty jurors is
drawn. FIT. Smith Times.

NSS4A most popular of all
~| the secret orders,
and in none is the mystic tie that
: binds man to man, and friend 10
friend more rigidly observed. Every
knight of Pythias, If he heeds and
comprehends the ceremonies of
the order, gets new understand
ing of the nobility of friendship.
There is no more glorious trinity
than friendship, charity and be-
nevolence, and the true knight
lives them in the home, and in
his every day life, and exercises
them as cardinal virtues at all
times. And in so doing be is cer-
tainly made better citizen, bet
ter friend and a better husband
and father. In the lodge it is
sought to inculcate the grandest
lessons of life; and they find re-
spcnsive cords in the lives Of
earth's nobility. No true knight
ever forgeis the lessons learned in
the lodgeroom. Here are taught
the lessons of true and perms-
nent friendship; courage born Of
confidence in your fellow man;
the faith that has an enduring
foundation in the brotherly pledge
Of Knights whose chief tenet is
fidelity; lessons which seek to
spread the mantle Of charity over
humanity and point it to higher
things; to cultivate benevolence
which forms bond Of sympathy
with your fellow man in his strug-
giles and sorrows-which carries to
his life the sunshine OF a warm
heart and an open hand.
There are two forces in life--the
creative and the destructive. The
great panacea of human life is
happiness. From the rosy-colored
morning OF the human race, mans
soul has spread its wings toward
the infinite, and sighed for the un-
attainable. Along the pathway of
human history are strewn the
wrecks Of mans ambition, and
towering temples of hope mark his
passage along the centuries. Mans
hope dies never. On the ruins Of
the old he builds the new, and the
spirit of the past is reincarnated.
So it is that the order of knights
of Pythias" has sought to gather
the highest ideals ofhuman broth
erhood of all the past, and hold
them in their very oriental vest
ments as Inspirations to the pres
ent.
The story upon which the order
is founded comes to US from the
darkest night in all human history.
