Dictated n Death Poem.

John Pepper of Chicago, young man
of a. lay on his dcathbed the other day.
Calling his sister he asked her to write
down some words he had in his mind.
Then without any hesitation, save that
which weakness imposed upon him, he die
tatcd the following lines:
Will you come to my grave
When my spirit is fled,
And beneath the cola sod
l am laid with the dead,
And the heart that uncc loved you
Is turning to clay,
As in Calvary's cold ground
/ am passing awayS
81 WISH Nancy" he said to his sur
priscd sister, "you would have these lines
published with my death notice do SO
wish to have nv friends come to my grave
after 1 am gone" Six hours later he was
dead.
The surprising thing about the affair is
that he was never known before to attempt
to write or compose verse.

SAFE DEPOSIT BUILDING,
400 Fort Street.


Curious title for soda water talk,
n tit? But its important. Well
tell you something interesting for
you to know.
Experience has shown that the
block-tin lining of soda tanks, the
containers in which the soda is car
donated, don't last but a few years.
When this lining is defective and
the tank is copper, someone is sure
to be poisoned. 1t won't kill you,
but it will produced seasickness
that won't be relieved until the
poisoned soda is up.
Now, steel tanks are absolutely
safe. We use them exclusively.
Should the lining of block-tin be
defective no harm results. There's
no poison in steel. If it leaks, we
know it. 1t won't keep its pres
sure and it is laid aside.
No one has ever been poisoned
by drinking our soda. We have
always taken the best precautions.
We leave nothing to chance, Nc
safety in any other plan.

The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1896-10-07

M!LLvILLE, N. j., Oct. THE flint
glass blowers committee yesterday after
noon notified Whitall, Tatum a. CO. that
tho wOrkmen would not return to work
at the 20 per cent. reduction asked for by
the company. Following upon the notice
came the stoppage of tho workmen's s credit
at the coinpany's stores. 1t has been the
custom for great many of the blowers to
be given credit in the summer, when the
factories are closed, and have it deducted
from their wages in the winter. The COM
pany will now appeal to the blowers di-
rect, disregarding the association, but tits
said that few, If any Of the men, will re-
turn to work at the reduction. 1t is the
intention of the company to employ nom
union mon in the event of their old eln-
ployes refusing to go to work. The union
men say, however, that non-union men
cannot do the skilled work required.

Jones, alias Marsh Marked Jake" Jones
was tried and sentenced in Indiana in 1894
to two years and six months for robbinga

conduct his time will expire in four

upon the application for pardon the pres-
dent says that the detectives who procured
Jones arrest and conviction now repre-
sent that investigation since his convic-
tion and facts that have come to their
knowledge have satisfied them that tho
convict was victim Of mistaken identity.
