GEN. j. M. HAZLEWOOD
Entertained at Reception Given by U.
R. Companies Knights of Pythias.

Aetna Company No. l, and Eureka
Company No. A, Uniform Rank Knights
of Pythias, gave a very elaborate recep-
ton at 17l2 Curtis street, last Wednes-
day night in honor of General j. NJ
Hazlewood of Charleston, w. Va, who
is guest in our city. The U. r. boys
were out in full-dress uniform to show
their highest respects to the guest of
honor, who ranks high as an officer in
the organization. After an introduction
of General Hazlewood to the Sir Knights
by Sir Knight G. c. Sample, all were
seated at long banquet table which
was very beautifully decorated and
bore very sumpteous menu. The Gen
eral was seated at the head of the table
with Col. VIM. Greenleaf on his right
and Lieut.. G G. Sample on his left
while at the other end of the table was
Grand Chancellor w. r. Hardy of Pueb.
10, who invoked the blessing. Very
witty and pointed toasts were an enjoy
able part of the program.
General Hazlewood spoke at length
on the great strides of progress of Pyth-
ianism. His eulogy of the executive
ability of Supreme Chancellor S. W
Starks was greeted with vigorous ap-
plause: in fact the name "Starks' stands
as sparkling light in Pythian circles.
He also paid high tribute to Major
General r. r. Jackson, who stands at
the head of the military department of
the order and whose wise administra-
ton has increased the membership to
an enormous number.
The Sir Knights were much elated
with the logical advice of the General
when he referred to the help and sue
cess that subordinate branches could
attain by obedience to law and superior
officers. He is a pleasing talker and a
very impressive lesson was left in the
minds of all who heard him. He was
warmly congratulated at the close of
his remarks.
The General speaks in the highest
terms of the hospitable citizens of Den
YER and will always keep warm spot
in his heart for them"

St. Patrick Taught Temperance.

St Patrick was an apostle of tenn
perance. He desired that his dis
ciples should not drink during the day,
but only after vespers. One of them
named Coleman went thirsty all day
in the fielas praying for the hour of
yespers, and when the bells rang he
dropped dead. To-day any one bear
ing the name of Coleman is likely to
have that of "stadhach" attached
in memory of the thirsty one" The
favorite drink of the people, "poteen, "
dates to the name Patrick. And on
his feast day no Irishman need go
hungry or thirsty. as "Patrick's pot
is set out for refreshment in every
inn and every household and the
stranger is made welcome to eat and
drink.
