BURIED IN BLOOMFIELD.
FUNERAL OF A CUBAN WOMAN WHO
 DIED IN THIS COUNTRY.

No little excitement and curiosity were
 evinced by those who witnessed on Tues day last, a funeral cortege in the Gen.
 tral cemetery of Brookfield, and heard
 the burial rites in 8 strange tongue. h. quiry revealed the fact that Sonora Dona Josefa Del Castello, lady of dig tinction and wealth, native of Porto Principe, Cuba, recently came to this country to see her lawyer and look after her investments here in houses, bonds, etc. While at her hotel receiving a call from her sister, her lawyer and other friends, she was suddenly stricken with apoplexy, and expired instantly. On account of the war in Cuba it would be difficult to carry her remains there for burial, and it was deemed expedient to inter them here. The sonora being a na- tive of the same city as Mrs Samuel Sherman, whom she visited a few years ago, her friends telegraphed to Under taker Beehler, requesting him to pur- chase lot in the Central cemetery, sub feet to the approval of their friends, MT and Mrs Samuel Sherman, and to make any arrangements for the burial that MT and Mrs Samuel Sherman might suggest. It was done and the body was brought here on Tuesday, accompanied by her friends. On their arrival, knowing that the senior warden of St Paul's church, the Hon Samuel Sherman, in 1871 was the chairman of the committee ap- pointed by the House of Bishops, for the revisement and translation of the prayer book into the Spanish language, they re- quested him to read the service, and he complied, and this accounted for the strange service heard at the grave. The ashes of 8 number of Cubans rest in the Central cemetery, and this may have been one reason for the burial here. CDanbury News.

Hancock. AS the general was PASSING

One night in June, 1862, August
Schaefer heard noise in his barn, on
his farm, in st. Francois county, Mis-
souri,. He got up from his bed, and.
without taking time to dress himself,
went to investigate, He did not return.
and his family and friends never saw
him again. 1t is said that he had made
himself obnoxious to his neighbors,
who were generally southern sympa-
TIMERS in the contest then waged be-
tween the sections. and that he had
caused OF least two of the leading citi-
zens OF the community to be publicly
whipped for their rebel predictions.
On another occasion he had investi-
gated. If he had not actually particle
pated in, an unsuccessful effort to as
sassinate one OF the best citizens Of
the county for the same reason. Under
these circumstances it was readily sur
missed by his family and others that he
had fallen Unto the hands of the Phil
istines'; but nobody seemed to know
anything definite as to his fate. Mrs.
| Schaeter, after few years, married
again, and moved away. The Schaefer
farm was sold to Rev. John Hinze, a
Lutheran minister, who has since occu-
pied the premises. The sudden and
mysterious taking off, of Schaefer had
been forgotten. till few days ago,
when Uncle" Elishee Cartee, an octo-
genarian OF seventy years residence in
the community, on his deathbed told
how the deed was done, and disclosed
the place OF execution and burial, but
refused to say who. besides himself,
were concerned in 1t. Briefly told, the
story, as given by Mr.. Cartee, Is this:
On the night in June, 1862, a party Of
six or eight in number went to Schae-
fer's home on the public road leading
from Dent Station NOV Bismarck) to
Iron Mountain. One Of them caused
commotion among the stock in the
| barn near the road. and when Schaefer
came to see what was the trouble they
marched him on in his robe de mutt to
Mr.. Cartees residence, about a mile
north OF where Bismarck now stands.
where, after an informal but impartial
trial, he was found guilty Of seeking to
compass the death of his neighbors and
sentenced to immediate execution. Ac-
cordingly the prisoner was taken at
once to hickory tree In the forest
about quarter Of a mile west of the
Cartee residence and hanged. AS soon
as life was extinct the body was buried,
without coffin or shroud, under the
| same tree. and the grave was undis-
| covered until its whereabouts were re-

Sunday the relatives OF the unfortunate
man removed the dust OF the remains
to the family graveyard at Doe Run.
And thus time and death have solved
fthe mystery.

Effects of Getting Wet.

Mr.. W. P. Akin, Graham, Texas. was
unfortunate in having some four
months old chicks get wet, the result
being that they have been sick ever
since. He states to the Poultry Keep
er the details In letter below:
II have flock OF fourteen Black MI
norcas about four months old. We had
a rain about one month ago and they
all got wet and stayed wet all nignI

cousy blubber on their nostrils. They

pullets. used peroxide of hydrogen
on them yesterday. Do you think that
good for them?"
The journal mentioned comments as
follows: We do not know of anything
more injurious to four months old
chicks than to become soaking and
remain so. If they had gotten wet dur
ing the day and had the warmth of the
sun, it might have been different, but
to remain wet all night means that
they were chilled through. 1t is sur
prise that they did not die in few
days. The treatment is correct but
labor1ous, and as the climate of Texas
is mild they may recover. II they
make a complete recovery they can be
used for breeding. The best remedy
Is to add a teaspoonful of chlorate Of
potash to each quart Of drinking wa

IRON FROM THE DEEP.

Famous Mine In Quebec Beneath the
Waters OF Luc La rortue.
Lake ores are abundant in northern
Europe, but SO far as the writer's
knowledge extends Luc la Tortue and
a neighboring lake are the only in
stances of the kind in North America.
says Popular Science Monthly. The ore
Is extracted from our lake mine BY
hand and by power. The shallow mar
gin is divided into sections and allotted
to suitable parties who may desire ia
work them and who are paid at a speci-
He'd rate per ton of ore raised. The
men generally work in company. Their
implements are shovel, strong cir
.cular sieve and rough handbarrow.
When work is to begun the workmen
remove shoes and stockings and use
their feet in searching for ore, which
lies imbedded in the soft sand. exceDt
ore cakes, being found in the lax,
Guided by their feet the workmen nut
down their shovels and bring to the
surface a quantity of ore and sand
which they throw into their circular
sieve. This is then held below the sur
face of the water until the soft sand
is washed away from the ore, which
is then thrown on scow provided for
the purpose or carried to shore. When
a sufficient quantity has been collected
1t is carried to the railway near IT
hand and loaded on cars. From the
deeper parts of the lake the ore ia
raised by means of a steam dredge.
The captain Of the dredge moves over
the lake and, putting down a pole and
working 1t about on the bottom, can
easily learn where there is a body Of
ore suitable for dredging. The dredge
is then removed to the desired spot
and work is begun. The ore and sand
are brought up in buckets on an end.

volving screen, adjusted and inclined
SO as to deliver 1t upon scows moored
to the dredge. In its course down the
screen the mixture of ore and mud ia
acted upon by the water, which is
thrown upon it with considerable force.
BY this means the mud and sand are
washed out of the screen and the clean
ore Is deposited on the scows.

Llne0ln's Private Car.

Tha: the sense of reverence for the
relics Of the historic past is not as de-
vcloped as it should be In the rushing
life Of our republic Is finding striking
illustration in the fate now overtaking
one Of the most interesting objects of
the great days Of 1876. says the Gin
cinnati Commercial Tribune. This is
the war car OF President Lincoln. 1t
has come TO light that this historic
railway coach-the one in which Lin
coin made his visits to the army of
the Virginia campaigns, in which he
held consultations with Grant, Sher-
man. Sheridan and other leaders and
in which finally he was borne to his last
resting plaee--is now abandoned and
left to decay in an out-of-the-w way cor
ner in the Union Pacific car shops at
Omaha. The most magnificent car on
the iron rails in its time. it's now
cracked, wea,her-beaten sides. its shat
tered windows, rusty brass ratings and
bare interior offer mournful contrast
to its departed grandeur. The car was
built specially for Mr.. Lincoln in the
military car shops at Alexandria early
In 1864 II was forty-two feet long by
eight ard one-half feet wide and was
divided into three compartments. The
entrance was by door that opened at
one end into narrow corridor extend
ing the entire length of the car. From
this passageway doors opened into the
three compartments. The one at the
and of the car was larger than the 9TH
