six Made From Wood.

Silk is about to be added to the
list of things made from wood. a
Frenchman named Chartionnier
first tried the experiment some
years ago at Bescancon, in France
and set up an elaborate plant in
that town for the manufacture of
silk, or rather an imitation of it
from wood fibre. Some fine speci-
mems were made and exhibited.
But it was found that the wood
silk could not be woven in large
pieces, and the works were finally
abandoned.
Further experiments and dis
coveries have recently been made,
however, and company have
been formed, which has taken the
old Chardonnier plant. 1t is said
they will be able to manufacture a
product which will closely resem-
bic sick, from wood alone, which
will be much cheaper than the real
article, and which can be woven in
large sized pieces. The process of
making is said to be similar of that
of manufacturing paper from wood.
The wood is first ground into n
pulp steamed and chemically pre-
pared. The method of weaving
the pulp is the secret from which
the inventors hope to reap a for
tune New York World

Mr.. w. FL. Howard had been
for some time the Republican
slate candidate for County Clerk,
but recently, we are told, his name
has been erased from the slate,
and that of Judge b. j. Redmond
substituted. The Republican ring
sters seem to be carrying things
with a high hand, and no man is
permitted to become Republican
candidate for office without first
getting it's permission. The head
of the ring is Weyler who cuts off
heads to suit his whims.

PIONEER GONE.
Death OF Capt. William S. Summers
Wednesday Morning.

wednesday Morning.
Capt. William S. Summers,
aged ninety-three, and one of the
pioneer residents of this city, died
at the home Of his son, Capt. JAS
II. Summers on Third street, at A
o'clock this wednesday, morn
ing, May ID. He had been failing
in health for about year and had
been confined to his room for two
weeks with general debility, which
was the ultimate cause of his
death.
He was born in ALTERNATE
county, Va, November 5, 1903,
and emigreted to this city in De
cember, 1910, where he has since
resided. He was steamboat
master and for years commanded
many different boats On the Ohio,
among others being the Inflated
Blue Ridge, that "blew up" near
Raccoon Island on the morning of
January 8, 1913. The last boat he
served as commander was the side
wheel packet Herman. He run
the river constantly for thirty-one
years and was steamboatnan
whose face was familiar at every
port and his name prominent from
Kanawha to Louisville and still
further south.
He went to California in 40
and was in charge of different
crafts on the Sacramento and
Feather rivers, having the distinc-
ton of taking the first steamboat
up the latter stream. The explor-
alton was made in 40 and the
craft that nayigated the river was
the Governor Dana. Capt. Sum
mers was regarded as the oldest
steamboatman along the river. He
possessed n strong personality, and
n lovable and unspoiled character,
and was we'll preserved for man
of his age. He was member of
the M. e. Church and stood firmly
for Christian deeds. He was an
unpretentious gentleman and a
venerable citizen, whose departure
from this life will be missed. Two
children are left to cherish and
maintain the memory of kind
and affectionate parent. They are

4 Sw1ndlc in n New Guise.

The latest swindle is accomplish
ed by means of a double fountain
pen, one end filed with good ink,
the other with ink that fades away
in day or two. The sharper's
plan is to call on farmers or others,
make bargain advantageous to
them that they are willing to agree
to it, write the contract or agree
ment with the ink that fades, then
manage so the victim signs it with
the ink that lasts. Then in few
days they have the name on sheet
of blank paper on which any sort
of note can be written. People
who read the papers are careful
how they sign their names TO any
documents offered by stranger,
Others are caught in this new trap.
To lift up the fallen, we must
take stand beside them.

Some arc Not so Good.

A printing Office is considered by
some folks tough place, and the
newspaper worker a mighty bad
man. Statistics, however, do not
bear out that idea. OF 1880 con-
victs in State Penitentiary of Texas
there is not printer or a news
paper man, while there are minis
ters, doctors, bankers, merchants,
BARRIERS, photographers, barkeepers,
cooks and members of professions
and callings. The printer gets a
bad name because the nature of
his business teaches him to detest
shams, and he scorns the hypocrite,
says an exchange.
