lie Passed Over the hiNer anu hcsteu
Under the Shade of the Trees"
Historians always stop to describe the
diving of Wolfe and Montcalm, the two
opposing commanders in the battle OF
Quebec. But their deaths were simply
heroic compared with the Christian death
of Stonewall Jackson, says the Philadel-
pima Press.
About / 30 on the day of his death he
was told that he had about two hours to
live and he answered feebly but firmly
"Very good it is all right"
4 few moments before he died he
cried out in his delirium : "Order A..
p. Hill to prepare for action. Pass the
infantry to the front rapidly. Tell Ma
Tor Hawks" -, then stopped, leaving
the sentence unfinished.
Presently smile of ineffable sweet
ness spread itself over his pale face, and
then he said quietly and with an express
sion OF relief: "Let us cross over the
river and rest under the shade OF the
trees"
And then, without pain or the least
struggle, his spirit passed away.

BLACKeNEO CEILINGS.
Incandescent Lamps Not Remedy Tor
This Annoyance.


II is generally supposed that the use OF
the incandescent electric-lamp complete
" obviates the blackening of ceilings,
saws Industries. This is n mistake. how
ever, as incandescent lamps do to some
extent cause blackening.
1t is probable that the blackening from
a gas-lamp is not due to unconsumed
carbon, but TO the deposition Of particles
from current OF hot air.
The incandescent lamp causes cur
rent of hot mir, which also deposits black
particles but unless the lamp is near
the ceiling it is not easily observed, as
the current of air is of course smaller.
1t may be noticed in connection with
this subject that the mica guards and
glass bells ranged over gas-burners do
not themselves blacken and do not APP
preciably lessen the blackening OF the
ceiling.
1t is therefore probable that the de-
post only takes place from hot air to a
cold surface.
