A GREAT INvENTI0Nl
ALife- Saving car-CoupIerln
vented by a Clifton Forge
Citizen.
MR.. j. A. MocklEY THE INVENTOR.

An invention that will in all probabil>
! ity take the place of all other similar de-
vices has been recently invented and
| patented by an ingenious mechanic re-
siding in this city, by the name of J. A.
! Mockley, known as the Mockley Twin
Type Car Coupler This gentleman is
now at the Basic City Car Works, super
intending the moulding of this Coupler,
which will be Immediately tested by
number OF railroads. Numerous expert
machinists who have examined the in>
vention declare that its success is al
ready assured, and Mr.. Mockley is re-
ceiving letters daily from various rail
road officials, seeking information as to
the special features of the Coupler.
In order that the invention may be
thoroughly tested, Mr. Mockley has or
ganized a Company, composed of our
well>known citizens, Messrs. j. c. Cars
penter, of the firm of Moody & Carpen-
ter; j. A. Roberts, of the Clifton Forge
Shoe Co., and j. A. Capel, who IN con-
nected with the inventor wi, develop
this enterprise to the fullest extent
From Investigations already made
there seems to be no doubt of the SUI
periority of the Coupler over a" others
now in use, and as it is the purpose of
those in control to manufacture the same
in this city, it can be readily seen that it
will be great help to the business in
terests OF Clifton Forge.
The coupler was recommended bv the
Master Car Builders Convention, held at
Lakewood, N. T., June 18th. 1898, which
includes some of the most eminent rails
road officials in the country.

MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.

"There is stranger in Jail at Fincas-
tie, Botetourt county. under treatment
of the County physician. At Eagle Rock
he stepped from a west bound Chesa-
peake & Ohio train as it pulled into
town, drew long>bladed knife and
plunged it into his stomach, and then
Jumped into the James river, from which
he was rescued by some bystanders.-
He had through ticket to Chicago and
money in his pocket. AS he could not
speak word of English, he is supposed
to be one of carload of Hungarians on
the same train en- route to Chicago"
The subject of the above notice is an
Austrian, and was brought to this city
by Bohemian friend from Chicago, who
had been sent after the wanderer by his
relatives. They remained over night at
Mrs. Writers boarding house, and on
Sunday morning the Austrian disap-
peared and has not been seen since. His
friend has searched diligently but has
been unable to find him, and the suppo-
sition is that has drowned himself in the
Jackson river.

The Lat Of the Msns.ehlko1..

The last representative Of the famous
Russian family Of Mentschikoh died a
a short time ago in Baden Baden. The
founder Of the family was Prince Alex
ander DanilOyitch Mentschikof, who
was the son Of a stableman and the ap-
prentice Of a baker. The boy attracted
the attention Of General Lefort, who in
trOduced him TO Peter the Great. Owing
70 his extraordinary eleverness, he OBJ
tanned great influence over the car and
soon advanced TO the highest places in
the empire. In time he became the most
important and the most feared man Of
Russia
In 1927, however, he fell suddenly into
disfavor and was banished to Siberia,
his immense fortune being cOnfscated
by the crown. He became insane there
broOding over his fall and losses, and
died in 1870. His son was restored 70
favor, however, and the family quickly
regained its prominence. The fortune
