This has always been thought TO be a
difficult feat, and one to be classed with
chess playing when the board is removed
from sight, as Morphy and others have
done, Yet there are good many proofs
that it has been accomplished, and that
repeatedly. The author of "Typog-
raphier,' printed in Cincinnati more than
twenty five years ago, composed the entire
work without scrap Of copy, except that
part which showed the imposition OF
forms James F. Babcuck, for many
years editor Of The New Haven Palladium,
in his younger days used always to turn
his thoughts into metal, without inter
vening paper; Horace Greeley did the
same thing, and it was a common prac-
tice with ThurlOw Weed.
There is not, when the practice is ex
amined, anything Of inherent difficulty in
it, except how to keep the mind constantly
upon the subject Type-setting, after a
practice of several years, becomes me
chanical there is no effort of thought re-
Quired to punCtuate, capitalize, or divide,
for these problems have been determined
by custom, and the only danger a compo-
sitor labors under is in having outs or
duublets A fluent or verbose writer
usually will see All advantage in adopting
this method, while man whose thoughts
come slowly will have time enough to
turn them and enlarge their expression.
1t is doubtful whether any time is thus
saved, as the compOSitor works more
slowly. In country newspapers, for one
reas b. or another, this IS frequently done,
but in the present day of division of EN-
ployments the editor rarely gets to the
composing room, much less sets type

The average senatorial desk is of mahog-

silver plate with the name upon il of the
senator who sits behind It. Some senators
keep their desks very nice, and the con-

desk is now in litter, and the floor be

Butler is covered with little bits of paper
which some senator has torn up and
thrown down there. Ingalls, desk is piled
high with papers and documents, and
Morgan, Butler, and Logan each have
bookcases in front of their desks filled

This custom is more prevalent in Scot
land than in England. With "goody" peO-
pie grace is said not only before breakfast
and dinner, but even when the slightest
refreshment is taken. Indeed, in the
Highlands, especially in Sutherland and
Ross shire, it is customary when a dram
is taken to ask a blessing" over the
mercy" A story is told Of Highlander
to whom snuff" was offered. The
fragrant mixture was put on the back Of
his hand, and, as it was a something to
take he said It would only be right To ask
blessing over it. The good man closed
his eyes and began slowly to repeat the
blessing or short prayer. A gust Of wind,
however, blew the snuff from of his hand
on which he remarked, 80, it couldna' be
a mercy at all when it wouldna' wait for
Gods blessing to be asked over 't.'-Notes

Wafer Purified by AeratIon.

The results OF experiments made thus
far in the purtication Of water by aera-
tlun have attracted much notice. This
method Is well known TO be based on the
discovery that the action of air in purify
ing water is greatly increased by mixing
the air and water under pressure. A
FaIrmOInt, Philadelphia turbine engine
was converted into an air-pump, which
delivered ~ per cent, by volume, of free
air into the water main this being the
proportion found necessary to surcharge
the water. Analysis showed that the
quantity of free oxygen in the aerated
water was / per cent. greater than before

acid was - per cent. greater, and that Of

Osborn. wanted in Prospect, Ohio,
for forgery, was arrested at Canal
Winchester, ten miles below here
yesterday, and afterwards met his
death in a singular manner. The
officer was on horseback, while the
prisoner, fandcufed, walked in

a farmer was met, who Informed the
Marshal that the prisoner was arm

Marshal thereupon dismounted to

parently, pointed it st the Marshal

The Free Lance says:
"As before remarked, none of the
Senatorial candidates yet suggested
have aroused the least bit of enthu-
siasm, and there is nothing that
can raise such feeling in this State
except gold notes and twenty-dollar
pieces.
In Nevada Senatorial campaign
men count for nothing; coin is
everything"
What have we come to If this
sad state of affairs is really so. Well
if things have reached such pass
as this it seems to us as if it was
really about time to start regular

If these things are inevitable they

TEE ssALEVATED MiE4E III a u q.
How he W as TEl1nbIed Into ShaN's
HO. Springs.

EsO: Springs.
Last week an old salivated miner
named Wilson was brought to the
Hot Springs to die, as the doctors
had given him up. Lately when a
man is past recovery the doctors
send him to Shaw's Hot Springs so
that they can get him off their
hands before he gets corpsey, so to
speak. This man had worked in
mills about Dayton and Silver City
for about twenty-four years and
had became soaked and saliyated
with quicksilver.
When he took off his shoes at
night he would find an ouRce or
so of quicksilver in them that had
ran out of his pores during violent
exercise in the day.
The boys say that when he sneez
ed against window it became a
looking glass at once. But we DO
not vouch for this.
Any how when Shaw saw the
man he began to growl and asked
the friends of the man where they
wanted him buried and who would
pay for the funeral.
| can cure any ordinary case
with nay Springs but pass on some
men; | pass on this one, gentlemen.
The friends of the man insisted
however on leaving him there and
Shaw continued to growl because he
thought funeral would give his
business a hoodo.
One day he heard an alteration
in the back yard and found the old
salivated mill-man licking one of
his hired help.
He had simply cot well and was
around showing off how we'll he
was.
Yesterday he told Shaw that IL
he heard him make any more allu-
sions to his poor health he would
end him up in corner on his head.
