GEN. \. B. STODDARD HONORED.
Becomes Most Eminent Grand Com,
mander Of the knight Templar
Grand Eneampment.

Louisville, NY, Aug. ~, lHll.
To W. l.. Saunders, Bryan, Tex.
Gen. Stoddard has been elected
most eminent grand commander Of
the grand cncanpmont 81 the United
States. l.. Il. Fuller.
Several hundred thousand peo.
pie from all parts Of the United
States have been attracted to Louis
vile, KY, the past few days by
the knight Templar grand en-
campment. Among all the nota.
bic personages present none have
been more highly honored than
Gen. III. b. Stoddard Of Bryan,
who succeeds to the Office of Most
Eminent Grand Commander. In
attaining this signal distinction,
Gen. Stoddard not only honors his
nome, but all Texas and the South
feels honored and proud of his
achievement. To those who ap-
preciate the high place he has
reached step by step, it is more to
be coveted than wealth, and of
greater honor than political prefer
ment. It is a distinction that will
hardly be accorded to Texas again
within the lifetime Of those now
living. II is with peculiar pleas
ure, therefore, that friends at home
read of Gen. Stoddard's success.

Answer.

Well Is it true that our would
be competitor, The James a. Nc
Candiess Mercantile company
would intentionally and malicious
ly infer that the $50 called cash
store does not do what it says it
wifi doY
Certainly, gentlemen, it is to be
hoped that you have not become so
unmanly and desperate as to sland-
er your competitor in an effort to
obtain trade Now, we will give
you a chance. We defy you or
any of your relations or friends so
inclined. in Florence or elsewhere
to say anything that they may
know regarding the integrity of
any one connected with The Jones
Grocery company.
We make this invitation because
we very much prefer to know our
selves what you may know regard
ing us. Judging from what we
know OF the actions of one of your
force, and from what now appears
to be public, we believe it to be
your desire TO work on those lines.
We will compare past and present
records with any of you, not only
the management but our entire
force of clerks are expected to be
truthful and honorable; let US have
a comparison if you know any
thing to the contrary. Will say
that we are doing a strictly cash
business, and while we have been
quite moderate in cutting prices
thus far (having some respect for
the welfare of the grocery bust
ness will now make it quite warm
in the future for any such un-
principled dealers.
You may do more cash business
than we are doing, we don't know.
We care nothing for this nor for
the source of vour information
Respectfully yours,

for the

In an interview he said, my
proposition is taking like wildfire.
Since my mentioning it two weeks
ago | have received many letters
favoring the idea. We should
nominate straight, old-fashioned
southern democrat for president.
Mr.. Gaines then mentioned
Senators Morgan of Alabama,
Cockrell of Missouri, Culbertson
and Bailey of Texas, Bacon and
Howell of Georgia, and Associate
Justice White of Louisiana, either
of whom he said would make

TERRoRIzED BY CRAZY WOMEN
Three insane women terrorized the
residents of Pittston, Pa, Wednesday.
They appeared on the streets about
the same time, and two Of them fought
the police. Clad in white sheet and
carrying a lighted lantern In her hand,
Mrs. Joseph Whitlock ran up and
down before the City Hall, followed by
four crying children. She fought the
officers, but was fnally locked 10 q
cell. She shrieked that ghosts were
after her, and it required five men to
take her to Danville Asylum. At the
same hour Miss Jane Weeks, % years
old, and member of prominent
family, disappeared from her home,
aud wandered through the streets,
threatening Vengeance against imagi-
nary enemies. She walked ten miles
to Wilkesbarre before she was taken 10
custody by the police. Mrs. Sallie
Gray, OF Cork Lane, who has been in-
sane for the past sixteen years, became
violent on the street, and 1t was neces-
sary to use force to restrain her. Mrs.
Grsy's mind became unbalanced when
her only son was murdered by q
Polander.

A PERFECT MAMMOTH. Through
Nature we learn that on July II the
st. Petersburg Academy Of Sciences re-
Geived telegram from the leader OF
the expedition which is shortly to bring
70 ST. Petersburg the mammoth found
in Siberia. The telegram, which was
dispatched from Yakuisk, reports that
the expedition arrived at that place on
June IA. II is proceeding by steamer
up the river, and will then journey
overland 10 Kolymsk, which Is 5000
yersts of, where 1t expects TO arrive 10
ten weeks. The mammoth found is
uuIque of It's kind. It's hair, skin ana
fiesh are entirely preserved, and there
are remains OF uudigested food 10 its
stomach. This will certainly be one oi
the most important discoveries made
Tor many yesrs. To be sure, remains
of mammoths are not uncommon, but
only their homes and fragments OF their
flesh and skin have 80 far been preserv.
cd. Ia 1899 there was foaDd near the
Lena river, iD Russia, imbedded in the
ice, perfect mammoth, but this was
destroyed almost entirely by the united
attacks OF the peasants, who sold the
ivory, and the dogs, wolves and bears,
which fed upon its flesh. The bones
and fragment of the skin and hair
were at last rescued and preserved.
