h Memoriam.

Again has the grim monster, death, alarmed the inner door of our Sane tuary and spread consternation and dismay among it's votaries. Again we are called upon to mourn the loss of a Sir Knight whose virtues bespeak for him the love 80 justly his due, John Crossman, they say, is dead: what is death but transition?
 It is appointed unto all men once to die-in the grave all men are equal; the good deeds, the lofty thoughts, the heroic sacrifices alone survive and bear fruit in the lives ofthose who strive to emulate them While, there fore, nature will have it's way, and our tears will fall upon the graves of our brethren, let us be comforted in the knowledge that the dead are but sleeping, and their memories will not be forgotten; that they will be loved by those who are soon to follow them; that in onr archives their names are written and that in our hearts there ia still place for them.
 In the death of Broth G. Crossman this Lodge has sustained a heavy loss, his family loving husband and in- dulgent parent; the community, a true gentleman and worthy citizen.' Therefore, be it resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the bereaved family, copy sent to each paper for publication and a copy be spread upon the minutes of the recH ord of this Lodge and that the Lodge be draped for period of 30 days. Brother thou art gone to rest
 And this shall ne our prayer, That, when we reach our journeys end Thy glory we shall share"

' MACHINE-MADE STATUES.
Services of a High-Priced Sculptor UBnecessary

If you want n bust or statue of your- self you need no longer feel obliged to go to a high-priced sculptor and contract for it regardless of expense, You can have the thing done by me chanical process, says the Saturday Evening Post
 The machine-sculptor will place you on a pedestal which revolves, and will turn you'slowly around while he takes series of photographs of you with fixed camera. AS result he will have views of yourself from every standpoint, and then it only remains to convert these pictures into the DOT trait in marble that is desired
 There is no preliminary model in clay. A piece of marble of the neces. sary size is provided, and the outlines of the first photograph, with suitable enlargement. are traced upon the stone. process heinz used that makes accuracy certain, Then the stone is revolved a certain distance. so as tC correspond mathematically with the view taken in the second photograph and the operation is repeated. This is done with all the photographs sue. cessively, the chisel doing it's work meanwhile. until q replica of yourself is produced in the marble.
 Though the process is in the main mechanical. some artistic skill is re. quired. The outlines are well repro. duced in he manner described, but such details aS the ears and the hair must have treatment with the chisel

HORSESHOE IN A LOG.
puaz Saw Ruined by One That Had Been In the Tree Fifty
 Eight Years.

A curiosity was disclosed at local sawmill lately, says the Rayena (N. Y) Republican. A large oak log was put on to be sawed. A slab nearly Is inches in thickness was cut of the butt. Then plank one and one half inches thick wa's severed and the saw started on a trip through the log for another plank of the same thickness. When about four feet from the butt there was a cracking, buzzing and fling of teeth. The saw was choked down so that il stopped the engine. The log was run back and when the saw was free il had been stripped of all it's teeth, 3s in number.
 The obstacle was dug out and found 10 be horses shoe. II was hand turned and in good state of preservation having rusted only little since being covered. The supposition is that the shoe was nailed on the tree for hitch ing purposes and the wood grew over it. Ii is said that the age of tree can be ascertained by counting the number of grain rings each grain re presenting year If this be true. the horseshoe has been covered over half a century. for 5s rings were between if and the bark.

Novel Tests for Conscripts.

The difficulty of classifying con. scripts in the French army according to fitness for service has been in- geniously solved by NJ. Pignet. a French army surgeon. His method IS based on the relations of chest measurement and weight He adds the chest measurement to the weight. and deducts tbe result from the height The smaller the residuum the greater is the endurance of the subJect. Thus. young man of 20 has an average chest measurement or so centimeters and weighs 60 kilogra mmes. The sum of these is l4O. His average height is one me ter 60 centimeters Deducting 40 from l6O gives 20 as the justification. The number ranges from ten, very strong, to 35, very weak An exami- nation of 800 men has fully borne out the conclusion that the higher the residuum the greater is the liability to illness, and vice versa.

Youngstown, Jan. Ex-senator i. e.

We captured many prisoners and
burned hundreds OF houses and destroy

We have lost but one man and he was
killed while cleaning his pistol. The
first time we were under fire was at

Dealers REPORT
DOMESTIC SUPPLY RUNNING Low.
Demand For Dried Fruits In
creasing--.No Change In
Grain Prices.

The past week was very satisfactory
one among dealers. Although there was
no particular rush in any one line, the
general trade was good. There was
good demand for standard groceries as
well as vegetables of all kinds. As the
supplies of potatoes and other vege-
tables laid in last fall are exhausted,
the call for such supplies at the stores
increases, consequently there Is increas-
ing trade.
Butter and eggs continue in fair sup
ply, but there are no changes in quota
tons. There Is steady and increasing
demand for dried fruits and canned
goods are selling rapidly.
In the grain markets no changes are
noted. Wheat, corn and oats are SELL
ing at the prices that have obtained all
winter, and the same may be said of
chop feed, bran and other ground stuff.
The advance in wheat in the general
markets has as yet had no local effect.
nor has It influenced the price of flour,
