Print For shins, bottoms.

If there were reliable paint to be had
that would keep foreign growth off the
bottoms of steel ships and also prevent
corrosion or pitting there would not be
any great necessity for copperng the
bottoms, but those who have had expert
ence in the working Of ships trading to
the orient for instance, know that this
is still far from realization In the writ
er's experience il often appeared that the
anticorrosive paint did not prevent cor.
rosion, and the antifouling coat failed to
prevent foulng for any great length of
time at least Hence the necessity for
coppering -Cassier's Magazine.

Big Demand for Ashmeao's " God.

Henry B. Ashmead, a prominent
member of the Philadelphia Union
League, is like Count Tolstoi, in that
he chops wood for exercise. He has in
the cellar of his house a stout saw
horse, a two-handed woodsaw, and an
excellent AK, and for an hour or two
every day he chops wood into neat
fagots that he piles against the walls
with mathematical precision. e. T..
Dobbins, another member of the Union
League, is very anxious to buy some
of Mr.. Ashmead's wood. He offers as
much as $25 cord for It, Have you
got that wood ready for me yet?" he
says to his old friend, whenever he
meets him in the halls of the club
house. What price are you offering
now?" Mr.. Ashmead returns. III give
you $25 a cord" says Mr.. Dobbins.
It's not enough answers the athletic
sawyer, and goes on his way with a
loud laugh This joke between the two
men has become widely known at the
club, and two or three times a day
now some one approaches Mr.. Ash
mead with bid for wood

THE Southern people" says Senator
NcLaurin, .tare becoming tired of the
vagaries of Bryan Democracy They
see in them no promise of party sue
cess, and much that is inimical to the
best interests of the South. They are
restless under the Bryan Democratic
oligarchy, but have submitted to 1t
from necessity. They are ready to make
the Democratic party progressive by
adapting it's principles and policies 10
the new economic conditions. They are
not willing to destroy the party, or to
renounce any of It's cardinal doctrines.
and thus build up a Republican party
in the South. What they want is to
vitalize Southern Democracy by infus-
ing into 1t great American Ideas, which
are rion-partisan and broader than par
ty platforms They would like 1t to be
a party of practical non-sectional ana
Democratic policies. They believe a re-
vision of the political creed of the DEM
ocratic party and the advocacy by 1t
of live issues In a progressive and ag-
gressive way will restore 1t to pubic
confidence and give it victory"

LAS two black men were grading

other.
1.-TWO young men went into the river
at Castle Green, n. Y, to swim, and
at the very moment they leaped into
the water a salute was fired from
some heavy pieces of cannon, which
were contiguous. They remained under
the water for some seconds, and on
rising to the surface We're observed
to act in so fantastic a manner that it
was evident something of an unusual
nature had happened to them. A boat
was, therefore, Immediately procured,
and on their being taken out of the
water and brought to the shore it was
found that both of them had lost their

to be unable to give any explanation
of how they had been affected or what
sensations they felt at the moment"

Scott county, KY, and is now eighty
six years old. Her husband died about

The destruction of the city of Jack

undoubtedly prove in one way an ad-
vantage" observed a Florida man,
now on a northern trip, a day or two
ago. 1T will, or at least ought to, in
sure the construction of modern build
ings there. l was in Jacksonville just
one week ago. The best hotel there
was of wood, and built many years ago
to accommodate tourists who came
South in the winter. 1t was not a f1o-
tel worthy Of these modern times of a
city of that size. From the standpoint
of the material growth of Jacksonville
the sweeping away of so many wooden
structures will mark an era for more
beautiful city,
