Mr.. ". ". Crump died at his resi-
dence on Queen street, yesterday after
noon at $40 O'Clock, after combine
ment to his bed of three weeks. He was
born in Richmond, Va, October 10th,
lS43, and was in his 4sth year. When
the war broke out the deceased ran
away from home and cast his fortunes
with the Confederacy, being in the
command Of Gen. VIM. Malone. He
began life as clerk in large whole
sale store in Baltimore, where he man
aged, by thrift and application, today
the foundation of good business edu-
cation, and also saved enough money
to come to Martinsburg and make an
humble venture in the hardware bust
ness. During the many years Of his
location here he, was successful 10 q
marked degree, and at his death was
deservedly recognized as one Of our
best business men. Iii 1878 lie was
married to Miss Jennie, eldest daughter
Of ex-Sheriff John Nv. Pitzer, with
whom lie lived d happy life Of thirteen
years, dying without issue.
Some 16/ years ago deceased was
thrown from buggy near the old
..Kiefer Park and sustained com
pound committed fracture of the right
leg, and, though the best Of medical
skill was applied, the wound never
healed, and blood poisoning setting in,
his death resulted therefrom. Fol
years he has been an invalid, and but
for the tender and careful nursing Of
his devoted wife he would have gone
to 9sthat silent bourne from whence ne
traveller ever returns long ere this
She was kind, attentive and faithful
and mourns his death with sincere an
| guish.
| Mr.. Crump was a quiet and gooC
citizen, and had many warm friend
and acquaintance. His enemies wer,
few, if any, and his departure will b
deplored by the entire community.

The Future Ocean Steamer.

The ocean racer OF the iuture will be
msstless steamer driven by twin screWs, IN
the Judgment of naval experts. The huge
vessels will not look 30 much like ships as
they do now, with their masts, yards and
sails; but they will be more ehip5hspe, to III Q
eome what paradoxical expression.
When the plaos Of the City OF Nav Yo:k
we're uuder consideration the owoers were
strongly urged to build her without masts.
Such strong arguments were presented Ia
favor Of this Innovation that the directors OF
the company we're much inclined to make
It. They feared that the travelling public
might not like the change, however, and out
of Difference to ths feeling had the steam
ship built with masts. II is predicted that
In the near future other directors OF trans
atlantic lines will take different view, and
will begin the work of introducing masilees
racers.
with single-screw stesmer masts are neces-
sary," said Csptsin Sargent, OF the steamship
Ohio, OF the American Line, yesterday, "but with
twin-screw vessels thew are no advantage They
are useful only as derIicks in loading and unload
ing the vessels, and for no other purpose. with
vessel that can mskc nineteen or twenty Knots
the sails are no use in increasing the speed, ana
their effect is mpercsptible. In most OK the
uteamships the yards have already been removed,
and only the fore and aft sails remain. These
count for nothing in helping the vessel to balance
herself, and TO my mind are Of no value.
81 can't say that The masts are any obstacle to
the progress of fast steamship by their resistance
to the atmosphere IS this amounts to nothing IN
a boat of 20, 600 horse power, but my objection
70 them is largely on the ground of expense
They are expensive, and the cost of maintenance
OF spars, sails and coIdage amounts 10 consider
able sum yearly. Nothing is gsined by this e1-
psnditure 1t cannot be said that the mssts are
necessary for the display Of signal lights, for the
flag STAFF does for that.
.Outsde Of their uss as derricks, for which they
are certainly convenient, masts are out OF place
on fast steamship, to my mind. They are very
hesyy, being of iron, aud with the spsrs and sails
constitute dead weight which must be carried.
I have no doubt that the coming fast steamship
will be mastless, and her appearance will be much
improved by being so, Observation-Disclosures Re-
cord.

According to Signor Marcana there is
in the common pineapple ferment
or principle, similar to pepsin, of such
remarkable strength that the juice of
single pinepine will digest ten
pounds of beef. If this proves true a
new and important agent in the treat
ment Of dyspepsia has been discov-
cred.
As nearly all other diseases are di-
rectly influenced by the degree in
which food can be assimilated, and
as millions of people have imperfect
digestion, the possibilities of this
discovery are almost limitless, if it
proves to be as represented. But even
more striking was the further an
nouncement in the same paper,
written by practical chemist, that
the juice of the pineapple is a very
active solvent of the membrane
formed in diphtheria. The pineapple
is a wholesome fruit without regard
to these striking features ascribed to
it, and experiments upon the lines
suggested will be easy and safe.
