PATENTS.
Notice to Inventors.

There was never a time in the his
tory of our country when the demand
for inventions and improvements in
the arts and sciences generally was so
great as now. The c~onveniences Of
mankind in the factory and workshop,
the household, on the farm, and in Of
actal life, require continual accessions
to the ap%purtenances and implements
OF each in order to save labor, time
and expense. The political change in
! the administration Of government does
not AFFECT the progress Of the Ameri-
can inventor, who being on the alert,
and feadyt to preceive the existing de-
~iciences, does not permit the affairs
OF government to deter him from
quickly conceiving the remedy to over
ceme the existing discrepancies. Too
great care cannot be exercised in
choosing a competent and skillful at
torney to. prepare and prosecute an
application for patent. Valuable in
terests have been lost and destroyed
lin innumerable instances by the en-
ployment of incompetent counsel, and
especially is this advice applicable to
those who adopt the "No patent, no
pay" system. Inventors who intrust
their business to this class OF attorneys
do SO at imminent risk, as the breadth
and strength OF the patent is never
considered in view OF a quick endeavoI
to get an allowance and obtain the fee
then due. THE PRESS CLAIMS

MINING MATTERS.

Reports from Various Camps-Items Of
General Interest to Miners.
Col. Robert Millikin expects soon to
commence shipping ore from the old
American mine at Hachita.
The latest quotations are; Silver,
smelter price, 669; London, 30 SIG d.;
copper, 1850; lead, smelter price, 3.12,
New York open market, 1925 to $3.50.
w. T. Chino, foreman for Childs &
Loberg at Carlisle, was in the city
Wednesday en- route to Carlisle from
Silver City, which place he left Mon
day. While in Silver he hired some
forty Mexlcans to go to Carlisle to
work in the mines.
Last Saturday night the stockhold-
ers OF the bachelor mining and mill
ing company held a meeting for the
purpose of electing a board Of direct
ors. Messrs, r. p. Hart, Harry Clas-
sen, r. w. Williams, J. A. Leahy and
D. II. Kedzie were elected as direct
ors. Ata meeting of the directors R.
P. Hart was elected president and
treasurer, r. w. Williams vice presi-
dent, and Harry Classen secretary.
The company recently let a small con-
tract for work on its mine at STEMS
Pass, which has been completed and
which has developed a fine showing of
ore. A further contract has been let
to continue this work. j. d. Smith
has the contract, and is working Lord
Hussey on the windlass.
There has been more trouble at Pyr'
amid. Saturday n. Stuppe, the CAPT
talistic member of the firm OF Pilz &
Stuppe, who have the lease on the
Pyramid mine and mill, received the
money to pay Off the employees and ex
hihited the roll of bills freely, Sun
day he got a cranky notion into hi
head and concluded to throw up The
lease. He told the men that he haC
nothing more to do with the lease
that he would pay nothing and tina
he was going to I'll Paso. The mel
thought differently ana he was stopped
by the strong hand of the law as al
Ascending debtor. He %immediatel,
proceeded to howl up and since theI
has been enjoying a drunk of maguiG
cent proportions. There is said to b
enough ore ready to mill to pay of al
hands, and the lease is y pro1tabl
one. Stuppc is an ignorant man ant
'Ta 'bull-headedr one. He has no az
probation of the responsibilities of
contract and thinks he can break on
with impunity, and is SO very ignoran
that the situation cannot be explalnel
to him.

nentI, of Reni. Donoho.

Benz. DonOhO, one of our oldest citi-
zens, died at midnight last night, in his
18th year. 1t has been nearly ten
years since he was paralyZed, severe
stroke that disabled him for all bust
ness, and a second stroke six years ago
rendered him helpless except to get
about the house little. For three
months past he has been confined to
his room entirely.
Mr.. DonOhO's active life was largely
in the time of Smyrna's best CONNER
cial days. He grew up in Blackbird
Hundred and learned clerking here,
setting out in business in the early
forties with Washington Crockett, un-
der the firm name of DOnOhO u
Crockett, and merchandised for several
years with good deal of spirit. Dur
ing the war he was postmaster, and
afterwards PrOthOnotary of Kent
county, subsequently farmer, and for
some years before his disqualification
for business, phosphate salesman.
He was popular with his associates
Kindly disposed, witty, lover of fun
it was natural that he should fill 8
large place in the noted cOterie Of prac
tical jOkers of the past generation.
He and his wife have made theil
home with his sOn-in-law, Elijah w
Stevens, since his afilictiOn. The in

The Flower Carnival.

The" Flower Carnival'or Miss Laura
Bells party, as it was Familiarity called,
did not come off Wednesday evening
because of the rain, but did Thursday
evening. The latter day was threaten
ing throughout and the ladies kept in
trepidatiOn, but instead, the evening
proved a most delightful one for such
an outdoor occasion.
The lawn with it's varied trees, close
cut grass and amplitude of space would
have been a charm to the young people
in itself, but when to this was strung
through it from tree to tree innumerable
gaily designed Chinese and Japanese
lanterns casting a mellow light over
the scene, it looked like a Veritable
fairyland. The remark was made by
several that it reminded them of the
"Wooded Island" at the Worlds Fair,
and several expressed surprise at the
largeness of Mr.. Bells grounds. 1t
proved a most delightful evening to
our young people, and of all classes
there were perhaps over 500 visitors.
One of the most pleasing features OF
the evening was the May Pole ever
cses by a number of the children to
the rhythm of time and step of music,
accompanied by viOlins and cOrnet.
The gross receipts were over $50, the
net receipts being $500. The object
of the Christian Endeavor Society
under whose auspices it was held, was
to provide the means to send theiI
delegate, Miss Annie w. Sutton, who
was elected at recent meeting, to the
National Convention to be held at BOs
ton in July. Several of our ladies
otherwise, expect to attend the Boston
meeting, which will be a great occasion

A Remarkable Case.

William Reynolds, resident of
Thoroughfare Neck, died Friday after
noon IN his 4Ith year. A very remark
able incident is connected with his
recent illness. About nineteen years
ago he received an injury of the spine,
seventeen years of which he has been
in a helpless condition confined to his
chair and bed. Through all these wears
he has been confirmed invalid. Two
weeks ago he was taken with severe
case of dysentery, which continued
until his death.
Tuesday of last week he told those
who were attending his bedside, that
God, who had made and preserved him
was going to let him walk again before
he died; that he was going to get up
and that he wanted no assistance, di-
recting at the same time not to notify
his wife for fear that she might be
frightened. Mr.. Reynolds got out of
bed unassisted, walked around the
room and was starting out when his
wife came in. Seeing her he cried 81
want you to be a witness that l have
walked. 1t is not under a fever that
do this, but by the power of God" He
went out of the room downstairs to the
woodpile and sat down, chatting, as il
he had never been an invalid. He re-
| joiced with inexpressible happiness and
at one time shouted, The place being
damp, he was called in the house,
Advancing unassisted he went in the
house, sat down and talked with bis
family over half an hour.
When he went hack to bed it was for
the last time. The dysentery grew
worse and with some attacks of heart
trouble he became at times delerious
and died Friday last,
His case caused considerable interest
from the fact that he had been such an
invalid. suffering throughout the seven
teen years with excruciating pains in
the back, and yet in the endurance O
it all, he would get up, with the pair
apparently gone, and walk a distance
of eighty or ninety feet unassisted.
Mr.. Reynolds was a good man, pos
sessed of a cheerful, happy nature; anC
though he was prevented from attend
ing divine worship, at his church
Friendship-yet he enjoyed having hi
friends meet with him at his home
His was a case where the spirit had
complete triumph over the flesh. In

Farming for Profit.

The country is now in its most at
tractive condition for travelling; es-
pecially is this SO of carriage riding.
The road to Odessa in a ride day or
two ago showed the wheat fields nearly
ready for the reaper, promising fine
results, and luxuriant fields of clover
falling before the mower. The peach
orchards, too, where not devastated by
disease, showed the trees universally
we'll filled with fruit.
The road from Black bird Landing
round the river road TO Odessa was by
and through the fertile farms of the
Corhits, whose fields of heavy wheat
were beautiful to look upon. Between
these farms and Odessa lies the Hang
man" farm, belonging to Jas. P. HOf-
fecker Of this town, the objective point
of the ride. The tenant, Mr.. Lon
Whittock, prides himself on his crops
and well he may. His wheat fields,
20 acres, which he will commence cut
ting Saturday, have an assured yield
of from 25 to 30 bushels per acre, claim
| ing a safe estimate TO be l 800 bushels.
The corn is no less luxuriant, in
fact there was nothing that compared
with it on the road, the corn in both
fields, 60 acres, averaging about two
feet high as il curled in the fields
Mr.. Whittock's method is to till his
corn largely before planting-in reduc.
ing the soil TO a good condition of tilth
This is done by the roller and the har.
row, between which, in the time from
plowing to planting, the ground was
gone over nine times. He expects tt
have, judging by the yield of previOu:
years, sixty bushels of corn per acre
or a crop we'll up between 5000 anC
1000 bushels.
Mr.. Whittock's chief pride, however
is his herd of cattle-nineteen cows o
fine, blooded stock, He sells his mill
to the Odessa creamery. Eight o
these cows are now averaging fortl
pounds or sixteen quarts per day
The advantage of this high grad,
stock is shown by his returns from tn,
creamery, which figures about $l0(
per month. His cows are of the Hol
stein strain. A field of twenty acre
pastures these cows and eight horses
in which they roam at pleasure, wit
clover up to their knees,

The Committee of Seventy, which
figured so largely in the reforms in
New York, disbands today. 1t has
accomplished its work. 1t was never
intended to be permanent organiza-
ton. 1t has brilliant history. 1t led
the campaign against Tammany last
fall. 1t combined all the discOrdant
political elements in opposition to the
ring. 1t succeeded in nominating a
winning ticket. 1t accomplished the
downfall of the Tammany Government.
1t continued in existence just long
enough to daft the legislation needed
to enable the new government to carry
out the promised reforms. 1t forced
the passage of the Power of Removal
bill and the Police Magistrates bill 1t
failed only in its Police bills and School
Reform bill. As result of its labOrs
the city is now officered by men OF
clean records and competent abilities.
Never before has New York had such
a self-respecting government. There
are no representatives of the criminal
classes in the present municipal civil
list. Some of the appointments have
been disappointing. Politics have
entered into most of the selections to q
greaterextent than many people hoped
but Mayor Strong has at least appointed
men whose records will bear examina
tiOu.

Winter Oats.

Winter oats were used in this local.
ity last fall for the first time, as an ex-
pertinent. The hard winter was a
severe test but they seem to have come
through it in a satisfactory manner.
A.. E. Jardine, as an introduction of
this new crop, wrote to the editor of
the Country Gentleman asking where
pure and good seed conld be procured,
and was directed to a gentleman in
Tennessee. He at once entered into
correspondence with this party and
engaged a quantity of seed at certain
price. In the meantime other persons
got hold of winter oats that they could
sell twenty cents a bushel cheaper and
sold to some who had engaged the
former. The result is that instead of
oats they have largely cheat, while
those who sOwed the Tennessee oats
got of Mr.. Jardine have oats simple
and pure, and are well pleased with
their experiment. We hear Of an in
tention on the part of some to SOW the
coming fall a mixture of winter oats
and scarlet clover,

THE opening of the canal which con-
meets the waters of the Baltic with the
German ocean is to be the most splen-
did naval display in history. Fully
hundred great ironclads will gather at
Kiel on the 18th, to-day, a fourth of
them being huge battleships and the
rest armed cruisers. Our own govern
ment will be represented by four of the
latter. 1t is to be hoped that they will
not get in each others way, as has
happened already in such assemblies
and with fatal results. A great inter
est is aroused as to the impression
which each country is going to make
on the others by the character of its
display. 1t is. in effect, an interna-
tional exhibition of warships, and the
interest is all the keener because no
ships of this class have yet encountered
each other in the hands of European
or American sailors. One of the
American ships there is the San Fran
cisco, on which is Roland w. Bell, OF
this town.
