proven to be the greatest trot of the year,
was quickly finished after the start was
given. Charley Herr, owned by David Ca

chance to win. acting lifeess. Herr be-
came the favorite and by trotting an
honest mile in almost q dead heat with
Lecco. The latter broke three times, but
at the end closed up yards of distance.
Through the last eighth came the two
horses almost neck ard neck. 1t is cleam-
ed that upwards of 100000 depended on

TWO days soaking, but the sun dried out

The Els trot went to Senator L. after
Pilot Evans each time had come into the
stretch in the lead. Both finishes were in
doubt until the wire was reached and Pilot
Evans only lost by a head. Senator l..

OLD MANUSCRIPT INK.

A Recipe From which an Excellent
Quality Can He Made.
"While examining largo number of
manuscripts Of an old scribe, some rs
years ago." said well known New York
librarian, II was struck with the clear.
ness and legibiiity Of the writing, owing,
in great measure to the permanent
quality of the ink, which had not faded
in the least, although many of the manu-
scripts wore nearly 200 years old. 1t was
marked, too, that the writer must have
been celebrated In his day for his caligra-
ply, for met with a letter or two from
his correspondents in which there was
request for the recipe Of the ink he used
l found this recipe, which copied, and
from one Of them, dated in 1868, have
during the last Is years made all the ink
have used.
ter, gallon; gals, bruised, pound;
green coprcras, one-half pound; gum
arabic, 10 ounces, g drains, scruple. Not
requiring so large quantity at time, I
reduced the proportions to one.eighth,
and the recipe stands thus
"Rainwater. pint; CALLS bruised ~
ounces green copperas, drains; gum
arabic, 10 drains. The gals must be
coarsely powdered and put into bottle
with the other ingredients and water add
cd. The bottle, when securely stoppered,
should be placed in the light (sun If pos
sible), ard its contents occasionally stirred
until the gum and oopporas are dissolved,
after which it is enough to shake the bot
tie daily, and in the course of a month
or six weeks the ink will be fit to use. I
have ventured to add ten drops of carbolic
acid to the contents Of the bottle, as it
etfectually prevents the formation and
growth Of mold without any detriment to
the quality of the ink so far as l know"
