1t has encountered the natural prejudice of
the people and painters to thing, and the
! innovation of an old established way, and has
been steadily growing in the popular favor, and
the sale of it rapidly increasing year after year
until it is very generally used in large cities, ON
fine residences as we'll as public buildings, and
by frst-class painters.
The Cleveland Chemical Pant is composed of
pure lead, zinc and H,seed oil, most desirable in
gradients of a really good paint. These are
chemically combined so that the oil cannot leave
the lead and go into the wood, as it does in the
old way, and leave it dry, peel and wash off in
a few years, but hardens with the lead and zinc
on the surface, adhering firmly to it, making al
FIRM, ELASTIC, WATER-PRooF Coat that will re-
main unchanged for years! in fact lasting!
three times as long as ordinary paint. Its cost
is less than pure lead and oil (mixed in old
way) which is unmixed and not ready for use
whereas the CLEVELAND CHEMICAL PAINT is all
ready for use, and will cover more surface than
any other paint. 1t is easily and rapidly ap>
piled by any one, and saving of one>third in /
time and labor is made in it's use. These, when
taken into account with it's great durability and
most certainly for the interest of all intending
to paint to use it.
This very desirable paint can be had in any
quantity and in white and any desired color att;

admirably, but it took two doctors to

AS Hattie Eva Murray, of Arlington,
Mass, was making her toilet to be mar
ried, a few evenings since, she was sud
denly taken i'll, and remained in an I'M
conscious state most of the time till
the second day after, when she died. She
was robed for burial in her wedding
dress.
Another explanation has been given
of the recent robbery at Highgate, where
it was stated that burglar tied young
Mrs Ricord to kettle of boiling water
and then stole $75 of her father-in-law's
money. There was no burglar in the
case, and no tying. Mrs. Ricord stole the
money herself and hid it under the carpet
where it has since been found.
The editor of the only paper at Fort
Laramie. Wyoming, has at last learned
that it's well to be accurate in his local
news items. In a recent issue he stated
that Mrs. Pleasant, of that place, had
murdered three husbands. The fact was
she had murdered but two, the third
escaping with couple of broken ribs; so
Mrs. r. called on that editor to see about
the correction, and, before he could jump
out of the window, lodged charge of
squirrel shot in his back.
"A careless coasting accident occurred
at Franklin, N. H., one day recently. As
Frank i. Symonds was walking up hill

was the last he remembered About an
hour and half afterward he was found
bruised, bleeding and insensible. BE was
quickly carried to his home, where with
the most assiduous treatment he remained
unconscious for forty eight hours, when he
partially came to and showed some pros
pect of recovery.

The Supreme Court Of Texas has decided

nv a silver medal, which was very appro-

A horrible accident recently occurred
TO a Young unmarried man, laDorer,
named Murphy, who was at work in the
Isabella Furnace, near Pittsburgh. 1t was
his duty to put the metal into the furnace,
and to do this it was necessary for him to
stand upon platform elevated some dis
lance from the ground floor. While he
and companion were in the act OF put
ting some material into the furnace some
part of the stack gave way, and young
Murphy fell in, and before he could be
rescued was burned to a crisp. When
taken out he was horribly mutilated
corpse.
Says THE Dubuque Herald: "a good
old.fashioned squeeze, hug and smack In
public electrified the audience at the
Atheneum Christmas night A city lady
and her escort were among the audience,
very common occurrence by-the-way, as
the house was crowded. A rustic swain
happened to be also present, and recog-
niZing the female as former near and
dear acquaintance, rushed frantically to-
ward her and there in the presence OF the
multitude, implanted upon her lips one OF
loves sweet kisses, folded her in his arms
and was satisfied. This little scene oc-
Cured before the curtain rose and brought
down the house,"
The fool-killer has not been around
in the neighborhood Of Indianapolis
lately, as evidenced by the following: A
man named Stephen Hendricks, residing
about eight miles south of the city, was
engaged recently in removing cartridge
from breech loader. Not succeeding TO
his satisfaction, he brought an iron rod to
white heat, and then thrust it into the
barrel of the gun, thinking to push the
leaden missile out by way of the breech.
Instead of this, however, it took the regu-
lar chute, forcing the rod into the palm OF
his hand, and up through the muscles and
tendons to the elbow, where it remained
until he wrenched it from its Judgment by
means of wise, himself being his own
surgeon.
Another of those inexpressibly aggra-
waiting murders by fooling with arevolver,
happened at the Terre Haute house, Terre
Haute, Ind, few nights ago. Ihe En-
press gives particulars "Wm. Stevenson,
a boy who has been employed in the bar
Der shop on Main street, next door to the
hotel, was told to go into the wash-room
and light the gas there. James Lowe, a
bell boy at the house, was lighting the
hall gas, and the two met each other in
the wash-room. There they engaged in
friendly conversation, and Stevenson pro-
duced pistol, which ne had been endeav-
oring to sell for some days. They were
both leaning over it, looking at the tube,
in which there was some defect, when it
was in some manner discharged, the bull
let lodging itself in Stevensons abdomen.
He exclaimed, "Oh, I'm shot," turned and
and walked into the shop, and sat down.
He was carried home and surgeons called,
who say that his death is probable. Young
Lowe has been almost wild with grief.
The two boys were playmates and fast
friends"
