 It is with regret that we an nounce the death of Mir. Tayl,r Prewitt, of Tillar, Ark, which occurred on Thursday of last week. Mr. Prewitt was a brother of the late Mrs. Inc. S. Wood. of this city, and died on the same day that she did. An older brother, Mir. Mansfield Prewitt, died only few days before.
 Reports show greatly increas ed death rate from throat and lung troubles, due to the preval ence of croup, pneumonia and grippe. We advise the nso of One Minute Cough Cure iD all of these difficulties. It is the only harmless remedy that gives inn mediate results. Children like it.

 Mir. Polk Miller, of Richmond, Va, the great humorist and ne- gro dialect delineator, appeared at the Opera House in this city last Monday evening, and gave one of his laughable and entertaining per formances. MT. Miller is ,.star in his line, and those who heard him here are more than pleased. Owing to the inclcmency of the weather the audience was small in comparison to what it should have been.

southwark. The air was IS still and
clear as on a quiet, moonlit winter

streamed through in glory of Italian

toll and storm. the strength and poise
OF enduring calm. It was well-nigh
overwhelming. In ill-disguised neces-

sight of heaps of crumpled dead birds
in the boat, and talked of shooting,
and agreed that nowhere in the world
was there promise of better sport than
here. Then silence fell again. In spite
OF us, our eyes were drawn outward;
and through all the peaceful beauty
we felt once more the poignancy of its
awful purity. He would be a man of

About Slate Pencils.

Slate pencils were formerly all cut
from slate just as it is dug from the
earth. Pencils so made were objected
to on account Of the grit which they
contained. To overcome this difficulty
q scientific man devised an ingeniuos
process by which the slate is ground
to a very fine powder, all grit and for
eign substances removed, and the pow
der bolted through silk much in the
same manner as -four is bolted., The
powder is then made into dough and
this dough is subjected to heavy hy-
draulic pressure, which presses the
pencils out in the required shape and
diameter. but in lengths Of about
three feet. While yet soft the pencils
are cut into the desired lengths and
set out to dry in the open air. After
they are thoroughly dry the pencils
are placed in steam baking kilns,
where they receive the proper temper.
