Grave Filling Device.

A device for use in constructing
graves, the invention of Henry D.
Cameron, of Burlington, Iowa, Is de-
signed to fill the grave with earth after
the coffin has been lowered, and to
conceal as far as possible the actual
throwing Of tie dirt upon the coffin,
the most trying termination Of the
grave. ceremony to the bereaved
mourners. It consists OF receptacle,
with detachable sides and bottom, and
q gate in the latter so arranged as to
be capable Of being opened to allow
the contents to fall. The front Is a
flexible curtain, extending from the
top to the gate, and designed to pre-
vent the earth within from being seen.
This receptacle is filed with earth
previous to tie ceremony and carried
to a convenient point. When all Is
over and the grave is to be filled, the
receptacle is placed over 1t, and the
gates opened, thus gently closing the
last sad scene In a much more fitting
manner than the seemingly cold
hearted return Of the earth with a
spade.

Charity hospital al eccentric old Ger
man who once upor q time followed
the queerest trade IN the world. He
was a maker Of coats Of mail. Long
before the war he had a little jewslry
shop on the north side Of Canal street
and the coat Of mail business was q

he made was composed Of small links
of very hard steel. woven together SO
compactly that one could not thrust

It was said that the coats" would turn

fashioned something like sleeveless
undershirt, and were intended to be
worn Immediately beneath the outside
garments. In those days the use Of
such devices was popularity attributed
to fellows who wanted to secure an am

German didn't 60 to any pains to ex-

got the links from Germany, and they
came in long single strand chains,
which he fastened together at the.
edges with small steel rings. thus
building up frbric. like knitting n

A DEPARTED SPIRIT
Attends His Own Funeral and Thanks

Attends His own Funeral and Thanks
His Friends
OF peculiar interest were the funer-
al services OF Gerry Valentine. Mr..
Valentine was one Of the early set
tiers of this place, and was more than
80 years old. He was an ardent Spir-
itualist, and when he died he left d.
rections for. his funeral, which were
intended to be a practical demonstra-
ton Of his belief. The services were
held in the Universalist church. Tho
preacher was Samuel Wheeler, q noted
Spiritualist of Philadelphia, and he
chose THE Rainbow Bridge" as his
subject. Then the meeting was given
over into the hands Of Mrs. Minnie
Brown, a clairvoyant from Philadel-
.phia. Immediately after Mrs. Brown
had taken her position several raps
were heard. Our brother has a mes.
sage for Cyrus F. Osgood," said the
medium. He wishes to thank Mr..
Osgood and the others for their care
in. carrying out his wishes in regard
to his funeral ceremonies" Mrs.
Brown then gave the information that
Mr.. Valentine was not alone, but that
]. O. Ransome, Mr.. Parkhurst and Mr..
Wyatt, former friends of the dead
man, had accompanied him on his lit
tie journey in the world" Several
other shades Of departed Spirtualists
had come with them. They reported
that they had made things homelike
for Mr.. Valentine, and gave messages
to the friends OF the latter which were
intended to cheer and comfort them.
The announcements were hailed BY the
many Spiritualists In the audience with
pleasure, and after few more con-
gratulatory raps Mr.. Valentines spirit
and its companions raped "Adieu."-

O. e.. /
Some Very Exciting balloon Adventures
On Record.
One OF the saddest OF modern bal
loon tragedies was that in which Mr..
Walter Powell Of Malmesbury and q
member Of the house of commons lost
his life. Mr.. Powell, accompanied by
Capt, Templar, assembled from Bath in
the war balloon "Saladin." At Bridg-
port the machine descended suddenly,
and Capt. Templar was thrown out
and severely injured. Before it could
be secured, the 'Saladin" rose swiftly
again, Carrying its unconscious Occu-.
pant-Mr. Powell-with 1t. For many
weeks the fate Of the M. P. was yelled
in mystery, and it was surmised he
had fallen into the sea and was
drowned. Fragments Of a wrecked
balloon were found on the outskirts
Of Spain some months afterwards, but
whether it was the unfortunate SAL
adm" was not proved. =, In 1908 two
Parisians had dispute, and they de-
cided to adjust 1t by duel. Not con-
tent with the ordinary method of set
thing quarrels, a novel idea was ven
tilated and adopted. They obtained
a pairiof large balloons, and each man,
accompanied by his seconds, entered
one of the aerial chariots. When they
had attained height Of 1000 feet
from the ground, and at a signal from
the seconds, the combatants were to
fire at each other with blunderbusses
of formidable dimensions. After two
or three shots had been fired one of
them managed to put hole through
the balloon of his adversary. The silk
en- covering was torn open, and the
duellist, together with his seconds, was
dashed to pieces on the roofs Of the
houses below. The other balloon sailed
on, and came down some hours later
in a field many miles from where 1t
ascended. - & .
