DEATH OF w. S. CHRIsTY.-On Mon
day night of this week Mr.. Winfield
S. Christy of this place, better known
as Major Christy, met his death
under circumstances most distress
ing. 1t seems that in company with
William Patton, the deceased had
been enjoying the night in cooking
and eating oysters, DC. Late in the
night, some time between twelve and
one o'clock, the deceased went to the
Continental Hotel for the purpose
of procuring some salt pepper. Go
ing around to the rear of the cooking
department he assembled narrow
stairway leading to the room of the
porter Of the house, Scott Jones. BY
some accident he seems to lfave fallen
backward down the stairway to the
ground causing fracture Of the
spine from which death resulted in
two hours. DR.. Brownfieltl was called
in and rendered medical aid, doing
all that was in his power to relieve
the sufferings of the unfortunate man.
Skill and medicine were alike una
valuable; Christys injury was mortal
and he died.
Major Christy in life was a kindly
hearty, generous and well-disposcd
man about thirtyfour years of age.
BY trade he was painter and worked
very industriously. He was the son
of Mr.. Frank Christy, of this place.
He leaves wife and three small chill
dren to mourn his loss. In the death
of the husband and father they have
lost their only support. The funeral
took place froms the NJ. f. Church
Wednesday afternoon at two o'clock
and was largely attended. - Vest

purpose of his interview, the reporter sought
for such other information as the lady had
to spare. ''If you won't say what you are
going to be inaugurated in" he said sudden
ly, evil you tell me what you were married
in?' Certainly was the reply; "a simple
white muslin" This reminded the lndustr1-
Gus young man that she was wearing a dress

would describe that. ssShe wore during the
interview" he says, Ga very stylish dark
gray cloth, made with klit-pleated skirt,
apron front, draped overskirt, and a basque,
doubled breasted, with two rows Of hand
some pearl buttons. This dress the inter-
viewer mentally decided to be new, and just
the thing for a travelling dress. and then his
researches on the dress question came to .

Writing Ink.

There are few chemical preparations, says
The Scientific Ameq5c0n, the use OF which
has become so general as that Of writing ink.
And yet it is rare to find an ink that fulhlls
all the conditions required of it. This is ex-
plainable upon the ground that ink receipts
are not constructed according to any cheml-
cal formula, but that we are compelled to
rely upon empirical experiments, and make
use of the results gathered by practical e1-
perience. a good black ink must flow easily
from the pen, and must yield either immedl-
ate]y or ia a short time q deep black writing.
It must not corrode metallic pens nor destroy
the paper. Further than this, 8 good ink
should contain no considerable sediment
when kept in alright bottles. In ordinary
ink bottles q sediment will always form, and
the more it is exposed to the atmosphere the
faster it will form. an ink that is to be used
for important documents must not be washed
| out with water or absolute alcohol SO as to be
| permanently illegible.
Ink may consist of either q clear solution
of any dystufff, or, as in the case Of common
black ink, q finely divided, insoluble precipi-
tate suspended in water. The chief mater
la1s used for making this ink are gallnuts,
green vitriol, and gum which are employed in
the most varied proportions. The gallnuts
are crushed TO q coarse powder and boiled
in water, or better, digested for several
hours at a temperature near the boiling point,
and the gum and green yitriol added to the
filtered decoction in solution.
The following example will serve as ink
for ordinary use: Twelve parts gals, 5 parts
green %vitriol, 5 parts gum senegal, and 100
parts water.
An exceedingly fine ink is said to be pro-
duced by the following recipe: Eleven parts
gals, 2 parts green yitriol, IL part indigo
solution, and % parts of water. Here the
relatively larger quantity makes the gum IN
necessary, while the indigo solution makes
the brilliant black seem still deeper. Writ
ing executed with this ink may, It's true, be
removed by means Of dilute acids, but it may
be rendered visible again BY chemical means.
There is also an ink id the market in which
the gals are replaced by logwood, but the
writing is less black, and can be totally de-
stroyed by treatment with acids, and can not
be restored by other means.
The so-called alizarin ink flows easily from
the pen, but they mostly suffer from the fact
that the writing appears at first only Of faint
greenish, blush, or reddish color, although
it gets darker afterWard.
The most permanent writing is done with
india ink, because the black coloring matter
Of this ink consists Of finely divided carbon,
which is unaffected by chemical regents.
It's high price seldom permits Of its use.
For ordinary use only such ink is recon-
mended as consists either Of pure gals and
iron or Of some mixture il which these are
the chief ingredients.
A small quantity Of %salicylic acid, one half
gramme to the liter, will prevent it from
holding even when kept in open ink bottles.

been settled from the south line of this
county TO the south of Gabriel, about
