An interesting fac: bearing on the Sum

death of Mr.. c. B. Cotsrell. Of Westerly.
X. l.. the printing press manufacturer.
There is a considerable community OF
Seventh Day Bapilsts in Westerly, who
keep the Sabbath" on Saturday and
work on Sunday. Mr.. Co.trell was . de-
vout member Of this religious communion,
and his extensive works were therefore
closed On Saturdays, but in fnll blast on
Sundays. Mr.. Cottre!l was highly re-
spected in his town and state. but he
would doubtless have been consigned to
perdition by the Rev. Joseph Cook if he
had lived to visit the Exposition and had
attended il on SUNDAY.

DELiCACY OF TOUCH.

required to be exerted by hydraulic
press in order to force onto it's shaft an

wheel; measurement in which thor-
sandth part of an inch variation in di-
ameter causes much more variation in
pressure than is permissible. Indeed
on some kinds of work done in the
machine shops thOusandth of an inch
/ has now become the most commonly
employed unit of measurement. a unit
which is divided and subdivided into at
least ten parts in order to express the
degree of refinement arrived at. This.
of course, far surpasses the frequently
mentioned but supposedly supertiuous
hair-splitting operation, since an ordi-
nary human hair is about 90 900 of
an inch in diameter. Considerably
smaller variations of size can be de-
! tected by the trained sense of touch, or
rather by the variations of the resist
ance of a pair of calipers passed over
the work, and it is even possible for
the sense of magnitude and the sensi-
! tiveness of the finger ends in relation
to it to be so highly developed as to
detect, unaided, and by merely rolling

lefty amounting to 1-l256O of an inch,

Silk and wool mixtures are as pop.
ular as ever. One showing a plain

stripes, the plain ground showing
prettily through the knots.
An entirely new fabric is called
wool-satin. In this goods both sides
are beautifully finished, one side hav-
ing the appearance of rich satin, which
is used for the trimming.
Every woman who can afford it is
going to have a silk gown this season.
All the new silks for autumn wear
have high luster like satin, and the
handsomest are in silk and velvet
stripes on a plain ground, always of
the lighter hue. One that was very

of silver grey. There are also some
elegant fower-brocaded satin stripes
on grounds of the very heaviest ben

and elegance of these silks they are
marked at rates that place them with
in re ach of the average woman.

are for trimming. The former is not,
as many suppose. watered silk, but has
q rich silver-lixe bloom in its surface,
beautiful in the extreme.
The velvet most in vogue this fall
will be green and mordore, although
brown and blue have not lost their
standing. In brown there are several
new shades, all of which have n more
or less ycllowish tint There are
enough shades of blue for all and to
spare, but the very dark shades, like

into disfavor. The prettiest are those

Black has lost none of it's popularity,
