ship card of the Knights of Columbus
of tI'ortland,-Oregon. Approaching Fr
T. Redmond, tho presiding officer of
the K. C. council, he stated his condi
tion and requested a loan of four dollars
in order that ha might got to Grand
Island nnd there Join a traveling com
pany. The money, he said, would He re

may have been the Indirect means of
bringing him a fortune Be that as St
muy; the four dollar loan was certainly
bread cast upon tho waters, which re
'turncd two hundred and fifty fold after
