The war over, Captain Mcclure again
entered the steamboat business, and
continued it for several years, when no
retired. Hehas not since been engaged
actively in business, but was one OF the
prime movers in the building OF the
Pewiky and Ohio River roads, and his
last great undertaking was the building
OF the Wheeling Bridge company's two
fino steel bridges. In that project he
was prime mover and large stock
holder, and his standing in the commu.
nifty and his enthusiasm for the pro.
ject combined were great elements OF
strength.

Miss Elizabeth Campbell, who died in
1881, leaving seven children, all OF
whom survive their father They are
Thomas, OF Taylor, Texas; Harry W.
and McBurnie, the proprietors OF the

That equal parts of Mocha, Java and
Rio will be relished by a good many peo-

That every cannot be suited to a

kinds
That a mild coffee can be made dam
gerously strong and still retain the mild

That he flavor is improved if the
liquid is turned from the dregs as soon
as the proper strength is obtained.
That where the percolation method is
used the coffee should be ground very
fine or the strength will not be extracted.
That if the ground coffee is put into
the water and boiled it should be rather
coarse. otherwise it will invariably be
muddy
That in serving the CUPS and cream
should be warm. The cream should be
put in the cup before the coffee is poured
in. but it is immaterial when the sugar
is added
