simple process for obtaining ice. He
pours water into bottle till it is half
full, and then Subjects it to the action
of an air-pump. As the vacuum is
produced, the water loses the air it
contains, and is at length vaporized
The air and steam, drawn off. passes
through cylinder containing sui
phuric acid, which instantly absorbs
all the watery particles as they pass.
The outside Of the bottle is soon COW

Early History Of Cast Iron.

1t is related that about the year
1900 one Abraham Darby, the pro.
prietor Of brass foundry at Bristol,
England, experimental in trying to
substitute cast iron for brass, but
without success, until the following
incident occurred
A Welsh shepherd boy named John
Thomas, to prevent being impressed
as soldier, requested his master to
recommend him as an apprentice to
u relative, who was one Of the part
ner Of Abraham Darby, and he was
accordingly sentinto the brass works.
AS he was looking on while the work
men were trying to cast IRON he said
to Darby he thought he saw how
they had missed it, and begged to
try method of his own. He and
Mr.. Darby remained alone in the
shop that night, and before morning
they had cast an iron pot. He was
at once engaged to remain and keep
the secret, whica he did faithfully,
although double wages were offered
him by tbcr parties. For more than
hundred years after that night, the
process producing iron castings in
mould of fine sand with two wood :,
frames and air holes, was practiced
and kept secret at the factory with
plugged keyholes and barred doors.

A STRANGE CASE.
A Man Attempts to Boat His Wife-Fail-
isg To Do So, He Takes strychains.

The Norwich Comm Bulletin, Aug 21, says:-
"Eleazer Fitch, who carries on the tarm OF
Harvey Chappell, at Lebanon, attempted to
commit suicide on Thursday morning by taking
a dose of strycbnine of thirty or forty grains
The circumstances which led to the act appear
to be in brief as folloWs:-Fitch's wife obtained
divorce from him last spring on account of his
intemperate habits and abuse. About SIX weeks
subsequently he advertised Tor housekeeper,
anO receiving reply nom woman In Hartford
ARRANGEMENTS were made for an Interview at
the depot in Willimantic On meeting her
taere she proposed TO become his house
keeper on condition that she also be-
came his wife. The condition was ac-
cepted and carried into immediate effect.
Their married life ran smoothly until about
week ago last Wednesday, when Fitch, coming
home considerably intoxicated, undertook to
chastise Mrs. Fltch. she repelled, however,
and he attempted 10 intlmldate her with SIX
shooter. She gained possession OF the weapon
being a powerful woman stripped him OF
his cloi hing, gave him sound thrash'ng, and
then presenting the revolver in her turn, drove
| hlm 10 ted. The same night she packed up her
| clio hes, took al the money he had, amounting
| to about $50, put her tr1nk on a wbeelbaIroW v
! and started Tor Il neigbbors, where she re-
departed for Hartford. Her husband ascer
| tanning her whereabouts, started in quest of
| her en- Wednesday last. FINDING that he was
| searching Tor her she came down to Lebanon
| the same day, took the rest OF her goods,
| and leaving a spicy note for him went oack 10
| Hartford. On his return from his iruitless
eTTaud he found the note. The bereavement
weighed too heavily on his mini and he
procured the bottle of stryohnine from which
| he took the enormous dose, as stated. In few
moments after the poison was taken spasms
! came on, and physicians were sent ior In haste.
Remedies were given rendering the poison tenn
porarly insolub BILE, and attempts were made to
| evacuate the stomach by emetics, This failing,
| d stomach-pump was procured. Although the
| pbysic ans were at work upon him from early
morning, it was not until three o'clock in the
afternoon that there were any hopes of his re-
covery. At Line O'Clock In the evening he was
pronounced out of danger Fitch was member
of the TweDtv-siXth regiment and was one of
the most reliable, sober men in the regiment. II
is sad that he viii refuse 10 taste liquor at times
for months and even years. He Is considered
