LEAD DIscovERED.-While boring
for oil on Buffalo creek, back OF
Red House, the drill passed through
a vein of lead ore at a depth OF
$50 feet. Owing to the pliability OF
the metal, it required thirty six
hours to penetrate the stratum.
Though it is customary to sharpen
the tools about every six hours, the
workmen were not compelled to do
so during the whole time they were
passing through the vein. Without
doubt Putnam county abounds in

But, TO go back How the thing
started doesn't matter especially. Prob
ably in the same way that it ended-in
a saloon quarrel This much Is known:
A Cummins shot "A Morton then the
thing went on with deadly regularity
until some six or seven had been killed
on either side. Finally there were only
two Mortons and one Cummins left
The latter had Just killed one of his
opponents and he liz out for other parts
and kept away for a good many
months.
One day Cummins came back.
Everybody was offering bets that Dan
Morton would shoot him on sight.
Cummins thought so. too, but he had
come back TO try and settle the thing
peaceably IL he could, otherwise II il
had to be. The two met in the natural
course of events, and both started TO
reach for their guns. Cummins said
his say, though, before the other got
the cinch on him

With that the two went into the Red
Front saloon, and in another ten min

on the back, and telling each other

were. They kept feeling better and

a minute all the sworn friendship of
the last half hour went TO the four
winds and forgetfulness, and those two
closed in n deadly struggle Each was
trying TO reach for the others gun.
They surged all over the saloon. No
one interfered for n while.
Then the other Morton, who had not
trusted the newly made reconciliation,
and had kept close by, stepped up TO
the two, and putting his pistol 90 Cum
Minis head, literally shot his head all
TO pieces.
And that ended the feud. The other
Morton was killed shortly afterward in
an ordinary quarrel, and Dan Is now
the only one left.-Chicago Tribune.

liquors they will be discharged. 1t is
also stated that since receiving this no

have organized themselves into a tenn

A Curious Fact About nickel and

Curious Fact About Nickel and Iron.
In the interesting process which has
lately come into vogue Of plating iron
with nickel by pressure betwec.i rolls
at n welding heat, the nickel is ingeni-
ously recovered from the clippin aud
shearings of the plate, simply by the
action of dilute sulphuric acid at n
temperature of IS degs., Cent. that is,
the iron is dissolved, and the nickel is
obtained i'm the form Of thin sheets ms
ii was melted upon the iron, the opera
ton being complete when the evolution
of hydrogen ceases; even fresh acid at
the same temperature has practically
no effect.
But though the separation of the two
metals is thus apparently perfectly
made, curious fact is remarked, name
ly, that when the residual nickel Is
chemically examined 1t Is found 20 diff
fer from its original composition. the
amC4-t of iron present being notably
increased. An example of this Is noted
in the case of a nickle containing origi.
nally 90 per cent. OF iron, per cent.
more being found when 1t was re-
covered from the plate cuttings, and
even by a long continued treatment
with dilute acid the iron could not be
sensibly reduced
This peculiar behavior points, Il Is
believed, TO the possibility Of positive
chemical combination taking place be-
tween the metals, and that alloys Of
iron and nickel are produced IN the
process Of welding, it being a fact
well known to chemists and metal
lurgists that iron, with but even small
proportion of nickel, resists the action
of acids much more than the pure
metal.-New York Sun.
