minded of this by a little incident
which occurred the other day. A judge
in this town had returned from trip
to New York. He was relating to a
few of his friends who were sitting IN
his office the other day some of the in
cidents of his trip and Journal man

type setting or rather type casting
before a keyboard. Every time he
touched a key a little brass mould for
a letter dropped down from it's recep-
tacle above and when enough of them
had come down to make a line the hot
type metal was forced against them
and a whole, solid line of type was
cast. Then these little brass moulds
were released and were carried back,
each being distributed automatically to
it's proper resting place ready for duty
again. It was the most wonderful ma
chine 1 ever saw and when 1t gets into
general use must revolutionize the

been in good health. and, about a week
after arrival at Bayville, his condition
became serious, resulting in an opera
ton for an abcess in the bowels. For
time he did nicely, but complications
set in and for week past all hopes of
recovery had been given up.
The remains were brought to this
city on the 715 p. NJ. train, yesterday,
and at once taken to his late residence
at II Spring street, where the funeral
will be held at o'clock, this afternoon
Charles Barton Chick was born in
Augusta, July 4, 1854. He was the son
of Thaddeus A. and Martha A. Chick,
being the second of five children: Mrs
Francis Fuller of Atlanta Ca, Mrs.
Francis w. Sprague Of West Newton
Mass, Leigh c. Chick and Mrs. ]. F.
Young, both of this city, all of whom
survive him. Mr.. Chick received his
education in the Augusta schools and
at the Business college. He acquired
the printers trade and was at one time
foreman in the New Age Office. He
married Sarah P. Owen Of West Gar
diner. whose death occurred about two
years ago. Three children were born
to this union, two of whom survive
their parents: Marion and Morton. aged
respectively about II and 10 years. I'm
der Postmaster Fowler's administra-
ton he was superintendent of mails
and later opened fire insurance Office,
ton to this he was secretary of the
Loan and Building Association. He
was also a member of the Village Dis
trict school committee.
In every position he occupied. public
or private, his work was characterized
by excellent judgment, faithfulness.
efficiency and integrity. Newspaper
men always claimed him as one of them
and he was recognized as one of the
best newspaper correspondents in the
| State. He was for years the Augusta
correspondent of the Boston Globe.
The deceased was a member of Au-
| gusta Lodge, F. & A. NJ; also of the
| Abnaki club. He was past grand
of Asylum Lodge. I. o. O. F. and
member of Augusta Lodge, A. o. U. w.
He was an attendant at the Universe
list church and was deeply interested
in it's work.
| Mr.. Chick was man generously en-
dowed with qualities of mind and heart
that ensured him success in his under
takings and won for him host of
true friends. There are very many who
feel a personal bereavement on ac-
count of his untimely death. He was
kindly and charitable in his dealings
with all men, ever ready to do favor,
seemingly for the pleasure he derived
in doing it, His death is especially
sad, for it removes from the COM
munity a respected and valuable
citizen who was in the prime Of his
powers and usefulness, deprives the
two little children who survive him of a
kind and loving father, their only par
| ent, and an affectionate family of
dearly beloved brother.
Mr. Chick was strongly attached to
Augusta and it's people, where he was
born. made his home and had hoped to
pass all his days.
