BETTER INK is NEEDED.
WHITING OF OLD DEEDS AND MORTGAGES
FADING OUT.

Lady Transcribing Clerks Do Not Put
Enough Pressure on Their Pens-At-
torneys Complain About Erasures and
Interlineations - How Sharpers Could
Cause Irreparab1e Damage to Records.
While attention is being directed to the
necessity of constructing the forms of deeds
and mortgages so that another Court House
will not become necessity in the life of the
present generation for the safe storage of
such invaluable public records, many
lawyers wish to add that more care is
necessary in the transcrbing of such docu-
ments. Complaint is especially made of
much of the transcrIbing in the Recorders
Office. All the lawyers heard complain
were substantially of the same opinion, but
all except two refused to 60 on record. Har-
vey Henderson, ESQ.,, was one who did not
veto the use of his name, and he said it was
very grave matter, or would be before
many years hence.
Morton Hunter, ESQ.,, said that the ink
used at times had been very inferior, not only
in the Recorders office, but that the record of
some deeds was almost illegible now. He
stated that in the first place the ink had
been OF poor quality, and some lady tran
scribers had not used it as freely as men
would have done, and that the lines, faint
even from the first, soon became quite
indistinct and in a few years more it would
be impossible to decipher them with the
naked eye, and that eventually even mag
nifying glass would not bring them out.
Mr.. Hunter thinks that in a matter so i'm
portant as public records involving title to
realty the fair transcribers should have been
less delicate and should have written heav.
lily, like men, even though elegance were
sacrificed. He advises that only ink of
standard quality be used.
Mr.. Hunter further adverted to the in
competency of some transcribers-those who
make mistakes and then erasures. He
states tina. sharpers, might easily take ad-
vantage of these erasures to interpolate
matter that might work great perhaps ire
parable mischief, and says that were it not that
lawyers are so generally in and about the
records, there would likely have been many
such. He would suggest as a remedy the
employment only of people of known capa-
who would not make mis-
takes, necessitating erasures, and says that
one fully competent never does make them.

DREADFUL EXPERIENCE,

A Young Pittsburger's Narrow Escape From
Death in a Chicago Hospital Graphic
Story Told by Assistant Building Inspec-
tor Brown.
Captain j. A. A. Brown, Assistant Build
ing Inspector, returned yesterday from Chi
cago, where he had hurriedly gone several
days before to sec his brother, Lincoln
Brown, who was for several years a clerk in
the Building Inspectors Office and who went
to Chicago about month ago to complete
his education for the medical profession at
Hahnemanian Institute. Shortly before he
went to Chicago Lincoln Brown found that
a lump was growing in his throat, and when
he had become a student at the institute he
called the attention of the physicians to it.
They decided that it was tumor, the result
of an attack Of diphtheria he had expert
enced about a year ago, and that the only
way To remove it would be by the surgeons
knife and the operation was performed
little over week ago.
He was then placed in the hospital depart
ment, and for couple of days was progress
lug nicely, so that it was decided to remove
him to another room. While the prepara-
tions for removal were being made, the
young man was lett without attendance Tor
a few moments. Just then he was seized
with hemorrhage that caused a complete
stoppage of the throat, and threw himself
into commissions, during which he jumped
from his bed and ran out into the corridor
The noise he made attracted the attention
of DR.. Boucher, who was on the floor below
and who ran upstairs and met the almost
strangled man in the hall. Realizing what
was wrong, the doctor inserted his finger in
Browns throat to open the passage and give
him air, but the patients teeth closed upon
his finger with grip like a vice. Brown
was by this time rigid and almost dead.
The doctor realized that heroic remedies
were necessary, and jerking his penknife
from his pocket, he made one vertical cut on
the young mans throat, penetrating the
windpipe and allowing the air TO enter the
lungs. The immediate effect was to cause
relaxation of the muscles and a return to
lie, but the symptoms were so serious that
the young mans friends were notified by
telegraph to come over.
When Captain Brown arrived, silver
tube had been inserted in the young mans
throat, through which he received the air
which kept him alive, and by the time the
captain left the physicians said his brother
was out of danger.
