Stereotype Glasses.

From the Huntsville Mercury
 William G. Herz, formerly an employe of the mechanical department of The Mercury, has patented stereotype chase that aims to reduce the time and labor of locking up linotype or type forms in the offices of newspapers and printing plants. The new chase is an improve ment on the latest invention now in gen. eral use and with one turn of a crank firmly locks a form on all sides so that it can be lifted about and not be liable to pie
 MT. Herz's ainvention was tested in the composing room of The Mercury yester- day afternoon and 1t was proved that the chase will lock and firmly hold form of type as well as linotype slugs, proving that the chase can be utilized not only in the metropolitan newspaper plants, but in the smaller plants where the art of stereotyping is unknown.
 MT Herz's invention was tested in the 19. The chase, technically described com prises a rectangular metal frame adapt ed to receive the form, which is clamped tightly against displacement by means of quoins disposed against two mutually adjacent sides of the frame. The mem bers of each of the quoins have their adjacent faces provided with cams so that as one member is slid over the op- posing member the cams will ride one on another and broaden the quoins. This operation is performed by means of a key fitted into a pinion in the corner of the frame, which turns upon rack-bar thus sliding quoins upon one another and locking the form.

Like Mr.. McKinley's Wound.

There is in the Emergency Hospital
at Washington a negro with wound
almost identical to that which caused
the death Of President Mckinley. The
negro underwent an operation perform
ed by DIR. Geo. Il. Vaughan, formerly
Of Farmvile and a son-In-law of our
townsman, Mr.. w. G. Venable. AT
last accounts the patient was doing
well.
In quite lengthy story Of the mans
wound, the Washington Times says:
In a number Of ways the negro's
wound is much more serious than that
received by The late President, but the
operation performed on him by DR..
Vaughan, Of the Marine Hospital Ser
vice, appears to have been highly sue
cessful.
The physicians assert that had they
been able to operate upon the man
within halfan hour, his recovery would
be foregone conclusion. Opening the
abdominal cavity, it was found that
the peritOneum had been lacerated in
several places. The stomach had just
been grazed, but a more serious condi-
ton was found in the punctures Of the
intestines.
There were four of these. The bullet.
as was with the Pres ident. was not To-
Gated. 1t is in the muscles of the
back

The town council Of Farmvile are
conservative in all their acts of appro-
priation for public improvement, and
usually make haste slowly.
The people of Farmville and Of Buck
ingham and Cumberland counties will
appreciate the prompt action taken in
regard to the horrid condition of the
public road leading from the n. d w.
depot to Cumberland bridge. The va
rious plans and specifications for max
ing good road there had been under
serious consideration for some time, and
until Monday night, when contract
was awarded for doing the work salts
factorily.
There were present at the council
meeting Mayor BlantOn, presiding;
Counclmen Anderson, Wall, Farrar,
Erambert and Martin. The specifca-
tions as adopted by the Street Com
mitlee were in some particulars amend
ed and accepted by the bidders for the
work. The bids were then read, one
from Mr. f. &. Buck and another from
Mr.. 5. A. Hooper The latter's bid
did not embrace rolling the dirt and
rock to be used in matchmaking.
Mr.. Bucks bid was 1885, and Mr..
Hooper's $3.50, but on account of Mr..
Hooper's lack of facilities for rolling,
the contract was given Mr.. Buck.
Tie work under contract is to COM
mence at once and be completed with
in forty days, the weather permitting.
One half the money is to be paid the
contractor on completion and the other
half within sixty days thereafter, or so
soon as the council is satisfied that the
JOB has been properly done under the
specifications.
