The Improvements in saturating wood
and timber invented by Fl. Sainsbury, Of
Paris, consist in employing a solution
formed in the relative approximate pro,
portions of water, one thousand litres;
alum, sixteen kilos; sulphate of copper,
sixteen kilos; bromide of sodium, one
kilo, and sodide of sodium, one kilo. For
the purpose of the invention he prefers
placing the timber or wood to be treated
in close vessel, from which he draws of
4ll the air, and in which he Immediately
injects the aforementioned liquid with
Il pressure varying from fifteen pounds to
one hundred and fifty pounds to the
inch. 1t is stated that wood thus injected
not only acquires thereby considerable
degree of hardness, whereby it is better
fitted to resist wear and tear, friction, ex-
posure to the atmosphere and detcriorat-
ing causes, but it is also rendered COM

The Roy ana the senator.

United States Senator Grover, of Oregon,
is the subject Of q neat little joke, which is
pointed because it is true. Last summer
he was member of the special Indian Com
mission, and was up in Oregon with that
party. They desired to visit the camp OF
the Nez Perces Indians and had telegrnphed
ahead along the railroad for such transpor-
taton as would convey the whole party.
The assembling teams collected quite a
crowd of people, who thronged the depot
and ga2ed upon tbe celebrities, without any
particular idea of what they meant to do
or who they were.
Senator Grover is extremely dignified,
and seldom speaks unless spoken TO; but is
remarkable for his extreme poIiteness. He
was walking UP and down the platform
when his eye happened TO fall upon little
shock-headed, ragged gamin. He paused
in his walk near the boy, and said:
MY son, may ask you how far it is 10
the camp Of the Ncz Perces?"
Yes sir" promptly answered the boy,
and then came to a full stop.
"How far is it2' asked the Senator.
Blamed if | know answered the boy
with perfect gravity,

GUS. CLARK'S CASE.
Application to take Tally-sheets Of the
Eighth Ward to the U. s. Court.

The U. S. Assistant District Attorney
made application this morning, in the
County District Court, for an order to have
the taliy-sheets of the Eighth Ward taken
to the U. S. Court, to be used as testimony
iii the trial OF Gus. Clark, now on trial in
that Court.
Mr. Baker said that he is one of the at
torneys for Clark in the United States
Court, and was also attorney for L. w.
Irwin in his contest with s. II. Drew, and
in the Irwin case tried in the Common
Pleas. These tally-sheets of the Eighth
Ward were sealed up with the ballots in a
bag, which is now in the custody of this
Court.
He had no objection to have these tally
sheets taken to the District Court by some
party who would be responsible for them,
and after they were used again seal them
up in bag and return them TO this Court
until they were used in the Irwin case.
Anorder was then made for the trans
mission of the tally-sheets to the United
States Court in charge of the Assistant Dis
trict Attorney, of the United States Courts.

Her mother died last summer of hard work
and a broken heart. Not attending school
for several days of late an inquiry was
made, when the girls body was found lying
in the corner of room at home covered
with some dirty rags. She was too proud
to tell the neighbors that she was starving,
and died all alone.
