EXTREMELY CHEAP.

Two gallons will cover hundred square
feet of shingle roof, while on tin, iron, felt,
matched boards, or any smooth surface, from
two quarts to one gallon are required to 100
square feet of surface, and although the paint
has heavy body, it is easily applied with a
brush.
No Tar is used in this Composition,
therefore it neither cracks in Winter, nor
runs in Summer.
On decayed shingles it fills up the holes and
pores, and gives new substantial roof that
will last for years. Curled or warped shin
giles it bringst to their places, and keeps them
there. 1t fills up all holes in felt roofs, stops
the leaks-and although a slow dryer, rain
does not effect it few hours after applying.
As nearly all paints that are black contain
Tar, be sure you obtain our genuine article,
which (for shingle roofs) is
CHOCOLATE COLOR
when first applied, changing in about month
to uniform Slate color, and is to all intents
and purposes Slate. On
TIN ROOFS
our red color is usually preferred, as one coat
S equal to five of any ordinary paint. For
BRICK WALLS
our bright red is the only reliable Slate Paint
ever introduced that will efectually prevent
dampness from penetrating and discoloring
the plaster.
These paints are also largely used on out
houses and fences, or as printing coat on
fine buildings
Our only colors are Chocolate, Red, Bright
Red and Orange.

murder I'm Dover.

At Dover on Wednesday a negro named
Henry Seymour deliberately shot and mortally
wounded another negro James Brown waiter
at the Capitol Hotel The evidence as obtain
ed before Esquire Dickson was to the effect that
Seymour and some companions went into the
hotel to get drink and on coming out they
stopped and commenced talking to some of the
women of the house using rough language
On this Brown interfered and told them not to
talk to the women in such manner. Sey-
mour thereupon drew pistol and shot him in
the forehead, the ball penetrating to the brain.
The murderer then fed but was pursued and
captured, and after hearing before Esquire
Dickson committed to await the action Of the
Grand Jury. Seymour is said to be sort Of
desperate and was both feared and hated by
the other negroes. He is said to have made
frequent threats against the life of Brown, and
the murder is looked upon as a most deliberate
and cold-blooded one.
