Monument Removed from a Cemetery


DAYTON, June PA difficulty of an
unusual nature has sprung up here which
seems far fram being settled. The late j.
II. Bollmeyer editor of the Dayton Empire,
met with death in street fight. His wife
procured a monument to be erected over
bis grave in Woodland Cemetery, the in
.scription on which contained the words,
"IIe fell by the hands of an assassin
,martyr to the cause of liberty of speech
and of the press" The trustees and lot
owners OF the cemetery. asserting that the
inscription was insulting and offensive to
= majority Of the people of Dayton. refused
.Ahe monument admission to the ceme-
terry. ....
Afterwards, however, it was clandes-
timely. in the night, placed over the grave.
The trustees then respectfully requested
Mrs. Bollmeyer to have the offensive mat
ter erased, which she positively declined to
do. The monument was therefore remov-
ed by the trustees, and held subject to her
order. so the matter stands at present
The trustees avow their readiness to submit
the subject to any court having jurisdiction
The friends Of the deceased, of course ap-
peal to public sympathy by the assump-
,tion that grave had been desccrated.

How to Determine where water Is.

At. q recent meeting of the American
Institute Farmers Club, member related
his experience in this matter, viz: "An
..Irishman in his employment. in order to
ascertain where he ought to dig to obtain
water soonest, got a stone and buried it
over night in the ground, next to the hard
pan. In the morning he found, it quite
moist, but not sufficiently to suit his fancy.
Next night he tried it in another spot and
it was found very wet on the following
morning. There said Patrick. "yol
will fnd water not many feet deep, and
plenty Of it," Sure enough, in few days
digging, Patrick confirmed his prediction,
notwithstanding the jeers of the workmen,
finding vein which filed the well to over
aowing. and rendered it exceedingly diff
cult to bail out the water so as to put stone
in it. The philosophy of the operation
seems to be that, as great evaporation
takes place from the surface of the earth
during the night the water rises up from
the depths below to supply the loss, and
,aecumulates in the vicinity of the stone,
often quite puddle.

GREAT DESTRUCTION OF SHEEP.-The re-
cent severe storm on the lake shore, and
the cold weather succeeding it, have made
sad havoc among the newly sheared sheep
in Northern Ohio. The Cleveland Herald
is informed that three thousand have died
in the townships of Independence and
Bucksyille. A Huron county gentleman
estimates that IL, 900 have died in that
county since the storm. Mr.. Charles
Fitch, living near Olmstead Falls, lost 40,
and his neighbors lost heavily. Several
hundred have died in North Royalston,
Cuyahoga county. Three farmers in
Brunswick, Medina county, lost respec-
lively 100, go and 80.

soda water..-Its Historv.

We will venture to say that very few
of our readers who frequent the soda foun-
itains know the manner in which the bey-
.erage is made. Soda water is simply pure
water impregnated With carbonic acid gas.
III is known BY its agreeable pungent tastc
10y Es slightly exhilarating qualities, and
ats bubbling and scintiliation. The water
to be imPregnated with the gas is placed
IN strong vessel, made of iron or copper,
called fountain. The gas, after being
passed through the water to purify it, is
conducted to the fountain. and, after suf-
hcient agitation in contact with the gas. at
high pressure. the water becomes iul-
pregaable, and is then what il known as
soda water The first experiments were
made by Venal, in France, 1870, and
published in I776; by Priestly. in 1893;
and, later, by Bergam. Black, Van Hell
mot, and others. The first manufactory
ia the world was established at Geneva,
by Goss, an apothecary of that city, whose
annual sales amounted to 40, 600 bottles oI
.'Eau de Selts." In 1900, his partner,
MIR. Paul, founded AN esta ,lishmcnt in
Paris, where wefe compounded not only
: the principal mineral waters of France, bu
. even those Of foreign countries. From
this time onward, Ilaboratoies multiplied
all over Europe, and the manufacture O.
simple agrated water is now conducted or

ithat a yeEy large amount of inventive tai
.ent'has ibeen successfully employed in i'm.
