PERSONALS. 
Rutherford B. Hayes is really president this 
time—of the Fremont Savings Bank. 
Ex-Governor Stanford, of California, has 
bought the stallion Piedmont for $30,000. 
Mr. Bancroft says that he is almost ready 
to write “ The End 13 to his History of the Uni¬ 
ted States. 
Harry Garfield, the late President’s son, is 
said to be engaged matrimonially to Miss 
Lulu Rockwell, the daughter of Colonel Rock¬ 
well. 
Victor Hugo says that he now lives only 
for his grandchildren. They are constantly 
with him, except in the morning hours, when 
he is at work. 
Queen Victoria’s visit to Mentone has caused 
an influx of English and American visitors to 
that watering place which is eutirely unpre¬ 
cedented in its history. 
Representative Alexander Stevens, in a talk 
with a reporter of an Atlanta paper, confirms 
the report that he will retire altogether from 
politics at the expiration of his present term. 
John W. Dorsey, Star-router, was born at 
Benson, Vt., and worked there as a tinsmith 
till within a few years, when he disappeared 
and was unheard of till the Star-route indict¬ 
ments brought him into notoriety with hia 
brother, Senator Dorsey. 
***“ By asking too much we may lose the 
little that we had before.” Kidney-Wort asks 
nothing but a fail 1 trial. This given, it fears 
no loss of faith in its virtues. A lady writes 
from Oregou: ** For thirty years I have been 
afflicted with kidney complaints. Two pack¬ 
ages of Kidney-Wort have done me more 
good than all the medicine and doctors I have 
had before, I believe it is a sure cure.’’-Adi?.
