NOTABLE REVOLUTION.
Lime Successfully Burned by Crude
Petroleum and Steam.

RocKLAND, May 20.
The process of lime burning in this vicini-
ty is undergoing revolution. For the past
few years the greater portion of fuel used
has been wood from the Provinces, nccessi-
tating great expense and labor. Substitutes
for wood have been tried but until recently
with little success. But Granville T.. Carle
ton, of Rockport, has perfected Il plan
whereby soft coal is successfully used in
lime manufacture, giving more lime in the
same time and at less expense. In this city
the system is designed by Druecker Bros,
of Druecker, Ohio. The burning of lime
by the use of crude oil has been successfully
tried and many Rockland manufacturers
have ordered the Druecker burners, which
will be operated at once. The Durecker
system consists of two sets of pipes, one
conducting the oil and the other the steam
which meet in the burner and generate gas
and an intense flame is thrown upon any
desired portion of the rock to be burned.
The experiment here was tried under the
most unfavorabe circumstances, yet more
and better lime was turned out in the same
,ime than when using wood. MIR. Carleton,
Of Rockport, claims that 20 per cent, more
lime can be manufactured by his process at
one haif the expense, and it is thought the
Druecker system will give equally favorable
results.

Nomination.

CINcINNATI May 30.
The following is the exact language of
Whitelaw Reid, printed IN the Commercial
Gazette, Tuesday morning, in Relds answer
to the question Would Blaine accept the
nomination.
That's too hard a question. But | can
tell you this he certainly would not accept a
nomination that was sought for. 1t must
come spontaneously. unsought and unani-
nous, or am sure he would not take It, He
does not want it. He might not take it un-
der any circumstances. He certainly would
not take it unless an overwhelming desire
for his candidacy should be so manifest that
he was nominated without opposition in con
vention. or heart burnngs among the friends
of other candidates"
The Commercial Gazette says editorially
this morning: This remark which we bad
carefully verified, is, coming from one SC
close to Blaine, as Reid, of unusual signifi-
canoe.

SHERIDAN.
His Condition Slightly, yet Continually
Improving.
Greater Hopes Entertained OF His Re
covery.


WAsIi1NGToN, May -.
A. M.-The favorable turn i'll Gen. Sher
idan's condition continues. He passed very
comfortable night and Mrs. Sheridan and
the physicians are encouraged though still
apprehensive of sudden change.
The following bulletin was issued at IL
o'clock, the consultation being at $50. Gen
Sheridan passed a quiet night, sleeping most
of the time. He awoke for few moments
at intervals of about half an hour, recogniz-
ing and conversng nationally. The respra-
ton and pulse remain good. On the whole,
the condition noted in las. evenings bulletin
continues, with a slight improvement.
u M.-Sheridan is about in the same con
liton as when the morning bulletin was is
sued There was an air OF cheerfulness
about the members of the household, Tues
day morning, that indicated better than words
that there had been decided change for the
better in the sick soldiers condition.
At 80 L. NJ, the Doctors furnished the
following:
Gen. Sheridan's condition to day is salts
factory. His pulse, respiration, and vigor OF
mind and body is improved. His sleep is
more normal, restful and natural. His func-
tions are nearer the line of health
General Sheridan has changed somewhat
today. He was given beef juice obtained by
pressing steak. He laughed and said at
is pity to spoil that steak for this. | would
rather get the juice out between my teeth.
"Wel, you shall, General, before the
week ends if You climb up like this"
An Intimate friend of Sheridan's said to-
night that the Generals mother, number of
years ago. had an attack very similar in char
acter to that which prostrated the General,
and the progress of the disease was much the
same She recovered and is now alive and
in her ninetieth year.
WAsHINGToN, May 30.
The attendant said tonight that Gen. Sher-
idau is doing splendidly and continued TO i'm
prove. His sleep is natural, no drugs are
administered and the heart is again beating
regularly.

bulletin: Gen Sheridan is sleeping
quietly There is no change to chronicle.
