maneuvers Of the Baltic squadron the signals
were read at a distance of thirty-four nauti-
cal miles, and the inventor hopes to increase
the distance to sixty miles by means Of re-

weighing about seven pounds. 1t contains
spirit and two powders, one green, the other
red, the composition Of which the inventor
keeps secret. The working parts are two
tubes ending in pear-shaped balls, which
being pressed, send out a brilliant red OF
green flash; by combination Of flashes mes

A New Book by Rev. william e. Barton.
Readers Of the Enterprise will be
glad to learn of a new book entitled
"a Hero in Homespun; A Tale of the
Loyal South" by Rev. William E. Bar
ton, d. d. of Boston, DIR. Barton went
from Wellington to Boston, and his
frequent visits to Wellington since
have always shown the deepest inter-
est in this town where he is well
known. The book is published ny
Lamson, Wolfe & Co. of Boston, and
will be out about October 20 We
shall have an extended review of it as
soon as it appears. Meantime we are
glad to give our readers some advance
information concerning the general
nature of the book.
In this story is set forth for the first
time the civil war as it affected the
Union people Of the South. The theme
is unhackneyed, and of absorbing in
terest. The historical. background is
true to fact, and changes with the pro-
gress of events in the war. The char
acters are sturdy types of mountain
manhood and womanhood. Many Of
the incidents are historical, original
and picturesque. There is constant
human interest, with humor and path
os.
Several generals ( the civil war,
with Parson Brownlow and Andrew
Johnson, are among the characters.

The delineation Of "the fighting par
son" is particularly strong and life
like. The story follows the order Of
events in the war as it touched Ken
lucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, Ohio,
and the ad jacent states, and has no
little historic value. The scenes vary
from those of the home to those Of the
battlefield. Wildcat Mountain, Mill
Spring, and other minor engagements
of the early war are described with
historic. fidelity, and the great battles
of Knoxville, Nashville, Stone River,
and the lighting about Cumberland
Gap, and other events in the exper-
ience Of the Army of the Cumberland
are truthfully depicted and belong to
the life story of the characters
The scouting, bushwhacking, gueril-
la warfare, strained social relations
political affiliations, religious expert
ence, domestic life and love making Of
the time are all touched upon. 1t is
believed that so adequate picture of
the mountain region of the South at
the time of the civil war has never be-
fore appeared in print.
The illustrations are by Dan Beard
whose ability to delineate pioneer and
military life is we'll known, and who
with the author and publisher, has
traversed the grolnd for this especia
purpose, reproducing the scenery ant
Typography with rare felicity, and se
lecting fine types of character for the
personnel of the book. The half-tonel

Mrs. Susan H. Nickles died Friday
evgning at 10 o'clock in Toledo, after a
some what protracted illness Thus
passed from its earthly tenement a
spirit, pure and pndefiled, to its Heav-
eply and everlasting rest.
Mrs. Nickles was a daughter Of the
late Judge Jackson, of Richland county
who was highly honored and respected
by all who knew him. She was born
August 2Sth, 1878, near Bellevllle,
Richland county. and was one of a
large family Of children. Among
them were the late William Jackson,
of Monroeville. Mrs. Caroline Kellogg,
of this city, and Mrs. j. L. Bonar, of

Mrs. Nickles was woman Of unus-
ual intelligence and her life was very
active one. Her hands and heart were
always enlisted in every good work,
actuated as they were by an intense
love for the Devine Master, whom she
loved and served with singleness OF
purpose. Her church and her home
were the objects for which she devoted
her life, but outside of these she found
time to do much labor OF love for those
who where poor and unfortunate. Her
love for others made her ever active
and she was constantly going about do
ing good. The Congregational church
Of which she was for many years a
member, counted on her for much ac-
tive work and she never failed to re.

intellect was ever exercised in the
church, the Sunday school and in the
community which she blessed and
adorned with her presence. For three
