' For the next 30 days we will slaughter prices in our Gents' Furnishing Department, that we may not be handicapped by any surplus stock when we commence to make the coming change.

Hi. DLiOCHKH. Grateful Tramp Keeps HU Word. Five hundred shares of mining stock in a mine in Grant county, which mav develop into a fortune for the holder, is the reward given to William Guion, a former O. It. & N. lireman, by a tramp for a ride of 75 miles on his engine, says the East Oregonian. About three years ago William Guion, formerly of Cayuee station, at that time a fireman on freight engine No. 140 running between LaUrande and Uma tilla, while in Pendleton one evening on an east-bound train, was approached by a man in rough working clothes, who asked to be allowed to shovel coal for him over the Hlue Mountains as he wanted to get to Baker City as soon as he could, where he had property. Carrying a "coal passer'' on freight engines over the mountains was not an unusual custom at that time, and Guion took the man on his engine with him. The tramp was needed to get coal down from the back end of the tender when it became scarce, toward the top of the mountain.and when the fireman became tired on the long grade between Pendle ton and Kamels. This man was not a regular type of tramp but was an intelligent and indus trious Gorman, who had been in Port land hospital for some time and had been released dead broke, and was working his way back to Baker City from which point he would go into Grant county, where he said he had some mining claims which promised to be rich. He told Guion about his mines and promised to remember him for his kind ness, but every man who was carried by a fireman told a similar. hardluck story, and promised the same remuneration when they should became rich. When the train reached LaGrande, alwut 3 o'clock in the morning, Guion took his newly-found friend to the res taurant and gave him his breakfast, and bid him good bye and then forgot the circumstances before he had reached his home five blocks away. A year afterward Guion received through the mail 500 shares of stock in a Grant county mine, non-assessable, pre ferred stock, and was surprised to find that this miner had kept his word.- The mine is being developed at this time and is in a good district. Guion would not sell the stock t any price now, as he feels that such honesty as that found in this "tramp" Bhould be rewarded by nothing but the best of luck. Do vour eves need attention? If so. call on Clarke, the jeweler and optician.
