A. Gentle Hint.

In our style of climate, with its
sudden changes of temperature
rain, wind and sunshine often inter-
mingled in a single day,-it is no
wonder that our children, friends and
relatives are so frequently taken from
Us by neglected colds, half the deaths
resulting directly from this cause.
A bottle of Boschee's German Syrup
kept about your home for immediate
use will prevent serious sickness, q
large doctors bill, and perhaps death,
by the use of three or four doses.
For curing Consumption, Hemorrh-
ages, Pneumonia, Severe Coughs,
Group, or any disease of the Throat
or Lungs, it's success is simply won
derful, as your druggist will tell you.

Hail, Wind and Rain.

The heaviest hail storm that We
ever remember of seeing fell at this
place last Friday afternoon. It was
accompanied by heavy rain, wind and
thunder. Much damage was done
to garden truck, branches of trees
were broken eff, fruit in large quan-
titles were knocked off and gullies
washed in fields. It certainly was
terrific storm and the timid were for
a time greatly frightened, imagining,
we suppose, that a second deluge
was about to visit the earth.
Our information is that the storm
fell only in spots. On the north side
of Twelve Mile creek no hail fell as
far up as we have heard from and
between this place and the Double
Branches little or no hail fell but
from there to Columbia the storm
was quite severe.

Odd Fellows Celebration.

Last Sunday afternoon Dixie Lodge
No. 50, celebrated the 83rd anniver-
sary Of the organization Of the Or
der of Odd Fellows.
The ceremony took place in the
court house and there was practl-
cally full turn out of the Lodge,
and the ceremonies were of unusual
interest and very impressive.
Captain L. W. Redd gave a very
Interesting and instructive address on
Friendship, one of the cardinal doc
trines of the Order. He went into
detailed history of the order from
it's foundation up to the present time.
In glowing elcquence he depicted
the beauties of friendship and it's
office in contributing to the happi-
ness of suffering humanity. Friend
ship stands on the barren shores of
suffering and throws it's benifcent
rays across the dark chasm Of de-
spair and light up the way to the
fair fields of hope. The hand Of
friendship stretches across the gulf
of sorrow and lightens the heavy
burdens of a weary brother and
pours the oil of consolation upon his
troubled spirits.
Rev. W. D. Quick followed in well
timed address on the subject of
Charity, or as the revised edition of
the Bible has it, Love, the greatest
of all the virtaes. When hope is
gone and friendship fades and pass
away Love sheds its refulgent beams
to warm up the sinking heart and her
gentle ministrations soothes and
binds up the bruises and wounds in
Aicted by a selfish and unfeeling
world. Over all it throws it's mantle
and invites the erring into nobler,
purer and holier walks of life. These
two addresses were we'll received
and gave the unintiated clearer In
sight into the aims and purposes of
Odd Fellows

Many of Lexington's delegation to

Dr.. Joe Vouches for This.

Last week DR.. Blue Mountain Joe
returned a pleasant visit to Mr.. Pat
Buckley, near Hilton, and he says
that Pats crop of wheat and oats are
wonderful ones, the stalks being
larger than CALIFORNIA; famous trees
and each grain will fill four-house
wagon. Pat and Joe must have
made gay old couple as they are
both ''mashers". Que of the amuse-
ments provided for the entertainment
of DR.. Joe was an old fashioned break
down, and the way the Doctor went
through the figures made the young
men turn green with envy.

Free Rural Delivery.

Mr.. T. P. Boushee, special agent
and examiner of the free rural deli7-
ery, was in town this week and
inspected the proposed route leading
from this place in a northwestern
direction. He has gone over the
route and has the matter of it's estab-
lishment under consideration. he
has gone to other points in the
county to examine more proposed
routes. The visit of this official to
the Seventh District is entirely due
to the persistent efforts of Congress-
man Lever. This young statesman
has been remarkably successful in
his work i'll securing preference in
the detail of an agent for his district
when it is remembered that over
thousands of applications are pend
ing. The establishment Of these
routes are Of inealculable value and
convenience to those living in the
rural districts as they put a post
cffice at every mans door.

court house square is making a fine
showing now and in years to come it
will afford beautiful amusement
ground for our people as well as a
delightful shade for our country

ness or pleasure. This grove will
ever be a monument to the public
spiritedress and progressiveness OF
Mr.. S. L. Smith, during whose IN
cumbeDcy of County Supervisor the
trees were planted.

GRANT AND OCHIlTREE.
The Grievance the President Had
Against the Colonel.


"After the war" said a veteran Of
fceholder, "a warm friendship sprang
up between General Grant and Colonel
Tom Ochiltree, although they had
fought on opposite sides. When Grant
appointed a large number Of people
who had been under him to federal
offices, he also appointed Ochiltree.
Tom had been under him in a sense.
Tom was made United States marshal
in Texas.
"Well, you know, in those days Tom
took very deep interest in the ponies
and was a sort Of patron saint Of rae
ing in the new southwest. He was so
much admired by horsemen generally
that it became quite the thing for own
ers to name their horses after him. At
enc time there were not less than
dozen horses running at various tracks
under the name of Tom Ochiltree.
Everything went lovely until Tom
came up to Washington, several months
after assuming his new duties In the
course of his visit he called at the
White House for a conference with
the president. After talking generah-
ties for awhile Tom noticed that the
president seemed to have something on
his mind-didn't appear to be as frank
and cordial as usual. He finally asked
General Grant what the trouble was,
limiting that the chief executive might
not be satisfied with the manner in
which the marshals Office was being
conducted.
"'Well, III tell YOU said the presi-
dent, 4 don't like the way you've been
running about the country, following
the races. | see by the sporting COL
umns Of the papers that first you are
in Louisville. then you're in New York,
next you're in Saratoga and next some
where out west. l would rather you
stayed at home and looked after your
office "-Washington Post.

GIANT POWDER Is STORED
UNDERGROUND.

Never in the history of precious
metal mining in the west was there
mine accident so destructive of human
life as that now being Chronicled, and
during the forty years of progress of
the industry in this state this is the
first time that more than three men
have lost their lives in any one metal
mine disaster.
In the latter part of May, 1891, a cage
broke loose from it's fastenings to the
cable in the shaft at the DAILY mine,
adjoining the Daly-West, and three
men, including Chief Engineer Green
leaf, were dashed to death in the bot
tom. That accident occurred within a
few days after a thorough inspection
of the cage and its connections to the
cable had been made by the engineer
who lost his life. Numbers of acct
dents have, of course, occurred in
various metal mines in different parts
of the state and many close calls and
hair-breadth escapes have happened
in nearly all prominent properties.
Fully realizing the dangers of delv-
ing in the earth for the precious
metals, Utah's mine managers have
been uniformly careful of the health
and lives of the miners and probably
no other feature of the business has
received more attention than the ques-
ton of placing safeguards about the
mysterious explosive known and des-
ignated as giant powder.
In Park City the question has long
been a mooted one as to whether it is
safer to keep powder underground in
quantity or whether it would be bet
ter TO send it into the mines as occa-
sion demanded That the former
method has been generally adopted in
the great mines of that camp is re-
garded as proof that it is considered
the safer of the two. The basis of
this opinion is found in the expression
of James d. Murdoch, formerly chief
engineer at the Ontario, who stated
yesterday that it was considered the
better policy to always handle the
stuff as little as possible The danger
in sending it down on the cages with
the men has always been considered
as most risky business and when the
mines became thoroughly opened the
practice was abandoned in most of the
mines.
& The Ontario and Daily mines each
Keep the bulk of their powder on. the
surface, practice that was inaugural
ed at the time when the former mine
was not connected with tunnel OPEN
ings and when the closing of it's shaft
through any cause would have meant
the inevitable drowning of every man
caught underground These mines
have not since resumed the practice
of storing powder beneath the sur
face, but, generally speaking, it is the
rule all over the state.
