Death of Jacob Tome.

Jacob Tome died at 10 O'Clock
Wednesday morning, at his resi-
dence i'll Port Deposit in his SSH
year, after very short illness from
pneumonia. The first intimatior
of Mr.. Tones illness was on last
Saturday evening, when he had
two chills. DR.. r. E. Bromwell
his attending physician, diagnosed
the case as one of grip. Mr.. Tome
did not seem to suffer, although his
temperature rose rapidly to 103.
His condition caused no alarm, but
on Tuesday his family thought it
advisable to have consulting
physician, and DIR. VIM. Osler, of
Baltimore, was sent for, arriving at
half-past two O'Clock Tuesday after,
noon. After an examination DIR.
Osler pronounced Mr.. Tome to be
suffering with pneumonia, but he
did not think there was any i'm
mediate danger. Nevertheless, as
the sequel proved, the race of a
long, active life had been run.
After an easy night Mr.. Tome
commenced to grown worse about 6
O'Clock Wednesday morning. He
sank rapidly, dying at five minutes
after 10 O'Clock. His mind was
clear to the last and he did not
seem to realize that death was
imminent.
His funeral will be in charge of
DR.. Eveland of Tome Institute, and
will take place on Saturday morn
ing at 1:30 from the Tome Memoir
ial Methodist church. The services
will be conducted by Presiding
Elder L. e. Barrett, assisted by
Rev. John 2. Compton, Fl. E. Budd
and others. The honorary pail
bearers will be Elk Mayor Latrobe,
Geo. B. Baker, Jesse Hilles, David
L. Bartlett, J. B. Ramsay, of Balti-
more; Governor Lowndes, of An
napolis; II. II. Brady, Of Chesa
peake City, and DR.. r. e. Brom-
well, of Port Deposit, while the
active bearers have been selected
from the students of the grammer
school. They are Hugh Caldwell,
Roy McClenahan, Milville Arthur,
Reeve Vannaman and Clay Whit
taker. The remains will be inter
red in the family burying ground
at Hopeweil Cemetery.
Mr.. Tome came to this county
when a young man and settled in
Port Deposit, where he has ever
since remained. AS soon as he
had accumulated considerable
means in the lumber and ware
house business he established the
Cecil Bank, and by rigidly sticking
to the legitimate banking business
and refusing to be tempted into
speculation, he accumulated the
millions he is reputed to have
gathered together. An accurate
of his life would prove
an interesting as well as instructive
narrative. He lived in an epoch of
our shifting business and social |
economy when individual effort had
a field for advancement, but has
passed never to return.
The deceased possessed one dis
timguishing virtue that shown out |
as the monday through all his
march of prosperity. He
never attempted to rise above and
ignore his early associates, and
isolate himself in the millionaire
charmed circle, but remained the
same plain, unassuming, ''every
day" man that he was in the

James Lick's Benefactions.

1t will be noticed that James Lick gave
nothing for mere charity. He did not be-
lieve In relieving any human being able to
work from the necessity of earning his
bread. Lick gave to science and educa-
tional improvement, to public necessity
and to art. He did not seek to set up RI
val to any existing state institution. He
did not duplicate anything. What he
sought were new avenues by which man
kind might be benefited without injury
to themselves or posterity. The only elee-
mosynary institution which he founded
was the Home For Old Ladies'. For that
blessings will be showered on his name
through the long centuries.
His great telescope on Mount Hamilton
has already made the retiring miller of the
early days a name and fame as wide as the
civilized world. The human sentiment
appeared in honor of his liberal endow-
ment Of the pioneers. The Academy of
Natural Sciences early attracted his atten-
ton as an institution from which great
things might be expected, and it shared
literally in his benefactions No man
could have given more literally, for he
gave all that he had. The deep love of hui
manity which is apparent in all secures
for him place among the benefactors of
mankind second to none.-San Francisco

Diamonds and Cutlery.

Uncut diamonds are comparatively
cheap when purchased in London, the
great precious stone market of the world,
but by the time the American duty has
been paid on them and they have been
cut to brilliants by three or four days of
work-and it never takes Lesson the
part Of the lapidary they have more than
doubled in value. Occasionally rough
diamonds are split in the wrong direction
In cleaving, and valuable stones are thus
entirely lost. 1t is measure of skill on
the part of the lapidary to be able to tell
by close inspection of the rough stone
just how it will cleave Pieces of dia-
monds which are broken off are ground
into powder with hammer, and the
dust Is poured into an iron receptacle par
TALLY filled with oil.
An expert diamond cutter receives from
$40 to $25 week. but his work is so con-
filming and he Is required to bend his body
SO much that he is usually carried off at a
comparatively early age with consump-
tion.-Chicago Record

A Story of the Rail.

A rural humorist in Screven county tells
this exciting story:
1--WE were coming at a fearful rate of
speed down the hill this side of Waters
station when suddenly, as we rounded
the curve, and just where the hands had
been working that day, the engineer and
fireman discovered a tie lying crosswise
upon the track.
ut was only about so feet away, and as
we were making 60 miles an hour there
was of course no possible chance to avoid
running over it. l was looking out of the
window at the time and saw the danger
just as the engineer and fireman saw it..
In another second we were on to it, and
we all three shut our eyes and listened for
the awful crash.
But much to our surprise the engine
glided smoothly over, the coach followed
in similar manner, and we rolled safely
into the depot
why, how In the world did 1t hap
penn" shouted all his listeners in a breath.
"Oh, simple enough. You see, the tie
that was lying across the track was only a
necktie that one of the young girls had
dropped that ernoonl"-Atlanta Con-
stitution.

a Trolley Telephone.

Passengers riding on the electric rail
way between West Farms and Mount Yer.
non have the privilege of listening to an
acoustic manifestation that in remarka-
bic manner illustrates some of the earlier
experiments in developing the telephone
The track is a single one, and the poten-
tial of the current is high. Its amperage
is also considerable AS a result, when n
car is waiting on switch for one coming
in an opposite direction, the approach of
the latter is audible at the distance of q
mile to the passengers in the waiting car.
The sound vibrations are carried along the
wire, through the trolley, to the wooden
roof of the car. This acts as a diaphragm,
which faithfully reproduces the rumble of
the approaching car. A mile away the
noise of the wheels Is distinctly audible,
and at the distance Of l, 900 feet the sound
becomes lond roar. Outside the car, how
ever, practically nothing is heard until
the moving car Is within q few hundred
feet OF the switch. -Brooklyn Eagle

Tenacity Of Life.

1t Is one of the wonders of everyday life
how long the lower forms of created crea.

conditions Microbes of various sorts, that
seem dependent on moisture for existence

away and kept dry for long period, and
have, under favorable conditions, revived,

degrees F., then kept in vacuum for a
month. Notwithstanding all this, they
revived upon being placed in warm,
moist atmosphere. Even snails may be
deprived of oxygen, water, food and heat,
but will merely curl up and go to sleep,
awakening when conditions are favora BILE.
