WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-Ever on the
alert to kill of unconstitutional raids on
the treasury Col. Kilgore put a quietus on
the bill to buy a relief ship for the Rus
SLAMS that settled its fate forever. Its adj
vocates were temporarily beaten some time
ago, but revived the measure to-day
through motion by Blount of Georgia, TO
reconsider. At that Kilgore moved to lay
the motion to reconsider on the table, which
motion prevailed by tremendous majority.
This settles the question for good and a
large share of the credit for beating it is
due the gentleman from Van Zandt.

The casualties were 81, of which number IA
died of their wounds. At Charlottesville
100 men and officers made brilliant
skirmiSh line charge and recovered a posi-
ton close to the enemy and raked by q
steady fire of musketry. They passed a
night i'll the captured works, and a storm
coming up one of them, Capt Henry
O'Neill, who had volunteered for the en-
terprise and was equipped as private SOL
der, erected shelter tent, lit candle
and passed the time in reading. When
the sharpshooter's bullets made leak holes
in the canvas he plugged them with wads
OF paper. O'Neill was 81 character who
furnished no end of camp iup When he

clared that he was 'joost tired o. marking

the candle in bis tent to charm away the
lightning. Confederate bullets didn't wor-
~ him
O'Ncill was subsequently promoted to
major, and on his first succession to the
command of the regiment was ordered to
hold battalion review "He constituted
himself both commandment and reviewing
officer" writes the historian of the reyi-
mcnt. "He appeared mounted, his trous-
ers hidden beneath his seven league boots
and hissword ut right shoulder shift. The
ceremony of presenting arms, opening
ranks, music, etc, was entirely omitted.

Mysteries OF tho Processes for Making Ink
Ribbons and MnnifoIding Papers.

mysteries OF tho Processes for Making INK
Ribbons and DIanifolding Papers
The manufacture of typewriting supplies
is first class mystery. 1t would seem
that the making of such articles as ink
ribbons, carbon paper and manifold paper
is hcdged around with secrets. The pro.
prictary value of the various brands on the
market consists in the private knowlc:,-c
of processes which are explained to nobody.
Typewriter ribbons of the best sort are
made out of the finest cotton ribbon which
IS bought in large rolls. They vary in
width from iive-siNteenths of IN inch to nm
inch and II half. Some ribbons are cut out
of cotton cloth, but this is an inferior
method. The ribbon is soaked in liquid
ink, being subsequently rubbed very
thoroughly III order to distribute the ink
through all the fibres. Finally it is sub
jected to II process of polishing, which
renders 1t possible to handle the ribbon
without much smut.
The most important point is the compo-
sition of the ink, the ingredients of which
are kept secret. 1t is mixed with oil md
glyccrine to keep it from getting dry. Two
kinds of inks are used for the ribbons
That employed for ordinary ribbons con
tains such insoluble pigments as logwood
or prussian blue or lampblack But the
ink for copying ribbons must be composed
with soluble colors usually aniline dyes.
After being soaked, rubbed and polished
the ribbon is cut into lengths of from five
to eighteen yards, according to the ma
chimes on which they are intended to ht,
used. Lastly each ribbon is wrapped in
silver paper or tin foil and put into paste
board box. However, the newest thing i,
to sell each ribbon wound on n little reel
inside of Il tin box. Durability is the quail
1ty chiefly demanded in typewriter rib
bons. The process of applying the ink IT..
quires great skill. If there is too much il
will smut.
Carbon paper, for manifolding OH the
typewriter, is so difficult to make that it is
exceptional to find any that is first rate. 1t
is manufactured simply by combining
lampblacll and underlying oils with suitable
paper How to accomplish this success
fully is Il problem on which vast amount
of labor and money have been expended
Manifold tissue paper, such MS the press
associations and syndicate correspondents
use for sending out their news and letters,
as many as sixteen good copies being
struck off at IL single touch of the type key,
is made frcn the best cotton and MANILA
stock. Animal oil is distributed over the
paper by machinery specially made for the
purpose. Nut "a TO what kind of animal
the oil is obtained from and how the ma.
chine works nobody outside of the business
knows.-W ashington 5;Hr

When Reptiles Ruled n World.

There was time Gin the wide revolv-
ing shades of centuries past" when orr
globe was wholly in the possession of
walking, swimming and flying reptiles
Being the dominant type they divided
naturally into three great classes. In the
oceans they became gigantic padding
enaliosaurians; on dry land, or rather wet
land (for the whole face of the globe was
doubtless quagmire at that time), they
became monstrous, erect dinosaurians
some of which had legs fifteen feet or
more in length; those which inhabited the
regions of the air were the terrible flying
pterodactyls.
For vast but unknown length of time
these awful creatures literally ruled the
earth. Finally after they had "seen their
day." they began to grow less and less
One by one they died out in the face of the
younger and more vigorous fauna until Mt
the present time only II few miniature ALI
gators and crocodiles and n few toy snakes
remain as reminders of skulking lizards
and Seckos and of the enormous reptilian
types that once crowded land and sea--St.
Louis Republic.
