Patent Flour.

Almost everybody knows Of patent
Hour, but not every one understands
what it is. Stripped of technicalities
this is about the story of it's manu-
facture:
The best flour used to be made of
Winter wheat. Spring wheat yielded
either much less in quantity or else
SO much of the bran got into the flour
in its manufacture that its color was
intolerably dark. The wheat would
be ground out and then bolted. In
the refuse-the bran and middlings-
would be included a large portion of
the weight of the Spring wheat, and
this would sell more particularly for
feed for horses. Now the best of
flour, and the most expensive, is made
of this very refuse of the old fashions
cd process. It all came of the dis
covery of q way to draw out the bran.
Under the new process the wheat IS
ground about as before. The first re-
suit is an ordinary -four sold for ex-
portation. Then the remainder is
taken and put upon horizontal selves,
aud while agitation is going on there
an ingenious system of draft is rush
ing up through, and carries off the
bran. What is left is the glutinous
portion of the wheat, the most nutri-
cious and most productive, and cut
of this, purified now by the drawing
off of the bran, we get our e. pro
cess flour. The result Of the discove
cry of the process has been to make
the poor Spring wheat of Minnesota
and upper Wisconsin the most valua-
bic kind of grain

An Operator's story.

"Speaking of curious experiences
chimod i'll another operator who had
been listening to the conversation
speaking Of curious experiences, 1
remember when I was working nights
at a little station on the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy road. About
1 O'Clock one cold sleety morning the
circuit was broken off for a little
while and then I heard the word
Help come over the line several
times. This was repeated at inter-
walls for some minutes. I was decid>
edly frightened, but nothing could be
done till daylight. After the break
had been located. men were sent
along the line to repair the wire, and
as soon as the instrument began to
work we received word that Charley
Adams, the day operator, had been
found there dead, with both his legs
cut off. We afterward learned that
Charley had been to a dance in Il
neighboring town, and had fallen,
unseen, from Il freight train as it 0
sed the bridge, and had been run ov-
er. With his little remaining strength
he had crawled ID the edge Of the
bridge and broken the wire. He had
telegraphed the word help by touch
ing the ends of the wire -

FUNDING under the 1913 act does
not progress very satisfactorily.
Parties holding debt-propor bonds,
which are to be funded at par, come
up very rapidly, and others don't
hesitate to file bonds to he classi7
fed by the funding board, but re-
serve the right to withhold from
funding in the event they are class
fled as bonds subject to funding at
;J0-3. The Board at first insisted on
funding all bonds filed, but have
since receded from that position.
They now hold that even debts
proper bonds funded at 60>6 must
be funded at 50-3, but their position
on this point is untenable from the
fact that they insist upon funding
them at any figure. Manifestly fit IS
proper to fund any part OF them at
1858 because not debt-proper bonds,
it would be just to fund at par such
of them as are undoubtedly debt
oropcr The truth Of the matter is
that the Bate pirates knew from the
beginning that if their proposed
nItn was carried out the 50-3 set
clement would leave the debt at Il
larger figure than it would have
been under the uniform plan offun"
ding at 6O-3-4-5-6. Therefore this
heiging to save Gov. Bate from APP
bearing before the people as the
man whose scheme for repudiating
an honest debt didn't repudiate.

No EIonemtnt III His FaniEy

The stem parent does not usually
figure as one of the actors III an elope-
ment, except in the time-honored
character of arriving just after the
clergyman has pronounced the bless

ulation curse. But in louisville, Ky,
the other day, a young couple had
made all their arrangements to elope
Oh a certain night: and the father of
the girl, getting wind of it, instead of
acting in the usual inconsequential
way, dragged the trembling lovers at
2 o'clock in the morning before a
justice of the peace to be married,
and oficiated himself as master Of
ceremonies. He said that he would
have no coping in his household.

to having ahstraoted the wallet from

had deposited it with a saloon>keeper
who advanced him $50 on it. The
wallet and contents were restored to
Mr.. Taylor Il few hours later, who
smiled quietly, lighted Il fresh cigar
and went out for IL walk. Albany was

THE disbursement for pensions
through the Knoxville agency un-
der the administration of Dr..
BoyntoD amounted to nearly $1,000
900. The magnitude of the sum has
excited the suspicious not only of
the country at large but Of the au-
thorities OF the pension department
as we'll; but without good ground.
East Tennessee alone, of the terrific
~ covered by the agency, furnished
to the Urion ranks 10000 soldiers
magtA-arsa 6ar1ro arc acquainted with
the facanand circumstances sur
rounding them from the day when
they left their mountain homes,
often in the dead of winter and
without time for preparation, poorly
shod and clothed, i'll little squads Of
. three to twenty men, hiding by
daylight in caves and cherries
mountain ~recesses; subsisting on
parched corn, and often OIL the roots
ana herbs around them; travelling
by night, often running the gaunt-
let Of fire from numerous watchful
foes: tearing through dense thick
cts, plunging into icy rivers and
creeks. and lying down in drenched
clothing on the bare ground to
catch a moment Of sleep-those who
know of the hardships and dangers
which these men passed through
before reaching the Union lines in
Kentucky are rather surprised that
the sum is not greater than it is.
Those who survived those perils
and the lesser hardships of regular
warfare all carried TO their homes
in the after years Of peace some in>
jury in the flesh Cor hidden in tho
system which, sooner or later, was
certain to develop q disability: and
the wrong is to day, not that illegal
and undeserved pensions are being
drawn from the Treasury of the
land, but that hundreds of good
men, who lost Lealth in passing to
the Union lines, are not drawing
pensions because Of some technical
disbarment arising from their miss
fortune instead of their fault.
The Northern soldier wholleft his
home without haste, clothed and
fed and housed by the Government;
cared for by watchful officers and
subjected only to the perils of bat
tie and the hardships of the march
a favored man in comparison
with his brother soldier from East
Tennessee, who braved dangers and
privations in getting to the front
far worse than anything to be en-
countered in the subsequent So
called "horrors of war;" and there
is not Il of them to-day who gets
a cent that he is not legally and
morally entitled to. The truth is
that he does not get half what he
deserves, and hundreds with equal
deserts oct nothing at all.

vIRGINIA'S COUPONS.
An Important Decision by Judge Bond
in the United States Circuit Court.


An Important Decision by Judge Bond
in the United States Circuit Court.
A decision OF the utmost impor>
tance has been rendered by Judge
Bond, Of the United States Circuit
Court, concerning the State debt of
Virginia. After a decision was ren>
dered by the United States Supreme
Court last spring in the Virginia
debt case, counsel for foreign bond
holders in London. through their att
torneys William & Royal, of New
York, instituted a number of suits
in the Circuit Court of the United
States here to test the conclusions
which Mr.. Royal insisted that the
decision led to.
Judge Bond has decided these
cases. He holds, first, that a tender
of coupons for taxes Is q legal tender;
that consequences which flow from
any other legal tender flow from this
and that this is the effect of the SUI
preme Court decision; second, that
officers of the State will be enjoined
from levying on a taxpayers proper>
ty after a tender OF coupons has
has been made: third, that as the
questions in these suits depend upon
the constitutionality Of the States
legislation, the suits arise under the
constitution, aud that circuit courts
of the United States have jurisdiction
of them without regard to the citi-
zenship Of the parties. Judge Bonds
jurisdiction extends over the entire
State. If his decision is not reversed
it would seem that the State can col
lect no more revenue until she pro-
vides for the coupons.

Wants them to stand off for a Rise

James e. O'Hara, the North Cars
Dina negro who was elected to
Congress, was in Boston last week.
A dinner vas given him by a nuns
Der of prominent Boston negroes,
at which O'Hara made q speech.
He said that he had had very little
to do with politics in the South, and
his advice to the young men had
been to avoid politics and attend to
business. The colored man has lit
tie to hope for from either the Re-
publican d Democratic parties.
Both make large and generous
promises, which are never kept, so
the difference between them is very
small. In the coming National cleo
ton, if the negroes should stand
aloof from both parties, they would
be called upon by both; in that way
they would make themselves felt,
and eventually become a political
power like Pat or Hans, whom both
parties desire on election day.

End of a Noted Hangmsll.

In the death of William Marwood,
the Queens eKecutioner, England
loses one Of her most prominent if
not one of her most distinguished
citizens. His personal appearance
did not correspond with his office.
He had a benevolent countenance
and pleasing manners, and looked
more like a divine than q hangman.
His benevolence was more than
skin-deep, for according to all ac-
counts his reason for accepting the
profession" of which he was so
bright an ornament was Q desire to
introduce more humane aud scien-
tifc methods into executions and
to lessen the pain of those he was
called upon to deal with. While,
therefore, his country will have
cause to regret the loss of the fore
most representative of a useful but
unpleasant profession, the criminal
classes have reason to mourn as
humane and mild amannered man
as ever tied o knot Or sprung a
trap.

A Bullet in Him for II Years.


William C. Pitts. who resides at

Smiths company, in the 18th Viz
ginia Infantry. Confederate with
Col. Kirk Ota commanding Regis
ment, with Brigadier General Terry
in command Of Brigade, in Maj-Gen-
eral Pockets Division Of Gen. Long
streets Corps, was on the 30th. day
of August, 1862, in the End battle of
Manassas, shot in the right eye, en-
tirely knocking the eye out, and rem
dering him totally blind for two
years; and from that time until the
present suffering at times the most
intense pain. On Wednesday morn
ing last, lacking one day of being 81
years from the time of receiving the
wound, while suffering considerable
pain, about 3 o'clock in the morning,
coughed out a minnie ball weighing
IL ounce. This, no doubt, to many
will seem a rather dubious tale; it 50
seemed to us. But, being well ac-
quainted with Mr.. Pitts, when the
report came to us we went immed-
lately and called upon him. He
showed us the ball, and gave us the
facts as above narrated.
