INK THE ROMANS USED.
For Writing Permanent Records-Stylus
and Wooden Tablets

The ancient Romans commonly wrote
with Il metal point (styus) OH wooden
tablets covered with wax (tabulaeJ, but
permanent records were written on
parchment with Il reed pen and liquid
pigment, or ink.
Al Haltem in Westphalia. near the
site of the Abuse fortress erected by
Drusus in the year II B. g.. was recent
ly found a bronze vessel containing
dried black mass. which Prof. kassner
has decided TO be Roman ink. The mass
was found to consist chiefly Of SCOT and
tannate of iron. 1t also contained small
er quantities of terric oxide, copper OK
ide. clay, magnesia, gypsum, phOsphOric
acid, carbonic acid, alkaics and sand.
These ingredients probably represent
chiefly accidental impurities which have
found their way into the old inkstand,
but some OF them may be due to the
chemical action of the ink on the bronze
vessel
The presence Of an aromatic substance
suggests that the ink was imported from
Italy, where the use of perfumed ink
was common.-Scientifc American.

Street Railway Fares Abroad.

In the cities of Great Britain the pop
ulation of which Is 100000 or more the
average rate of fare for street railway
travel is IL cents Il passenger mile IN
the cities of continental Europe the av-
erase rate of fare paid for urban trans
portation is 1 cent Il passenger mile.
On the overhead and underground rail-
way in the city ri Berlin. Germany, the
average rate of fare paid is 1.25 cents

was thought to be needy woman. had
considerable wealth, according to an aft
davit filed in Judge Graham's court by
the public administrator The woman
possessed at least 100000, and yet she
begged upon the streets. The woman re-
ceived much money from Catholic char
liable institutions and from the Red
Cross society, yet she had $4,000 on
deposit in local banks and loaned large
sums, including a loan which she made
to a local Baptist church for rebuilding
purposes. Although it was thought at
the time of her death that she left no
living relatives, the public administrator
declares that many claims to the estate
have arisen and a lively contest is ex-
pected.

His Wife Seeks Aid.
HILLsDALE, Mich, May 17.-Prose-
cutting Attorney Paul Chase Is taking
steps to secure the release OF Joel
Baughman, the father OF the three
children born to Mrs. Sarah Hotch'
kiss. from Ionia reformatory. Mrs.
Hotchkiss and her three-year-old son
are being cared for In the woman =
detention room In the county jail.
Mrs. Hotchkiss was born In AmDoy'
tlhs county, "a years ago. Her par
ents, being very poor and having eign'
children, found II necessary to give
her into the care of others at the age
of 8. Her maiden name was Sarah
Turner.
At Is she was working for family
near Oliyet. She left to visit her
mother near Montpelier. o., and while
passing through Steubenville she be
came acquainted with Roy Hotchkiss.
She married him and they lived to-
gether aoout a wear and a hair. Then
she left him and went to work again,
finally returning 10 Michigan In l5oa'
Here she met Joel Baughman, who
lived near Olivet. He had been mar
ried and never divorced. and Mrs
Hotchkiss was in similar situation.
They were afraid to marry. After a
brief residence In Ohio they returned
to Michigan and settled at Shepherds
Vile. Baughman was unable to sup
mort the woman and their three chill
dren. The circumstances became
known and they were arrested ana
Baughman was sent to the lonia re-
formatory, while the woman was re-
leased, owing to her health.
Mrs. Hotchkiss went to live with a
sister near Olivet, but they failed to
agree. and she started for this county.
Meanwhile her funds gave out. ana
when she arrived here last Saturday
night she was compelled to beg food
from the grocery stores for her boy.
She walked a part of the way to the
city. and carried her child. She was
nearly exhausted when the attention
OF a number of society women was d.
rected TO her.
Il now develops that her husband
secured a divorce In 1907 at Angola,
Ind. and has since married again. II
transpires also that Mrs. Baughman
has secured a divorce. Two OF the
children are being cared for at the
home OF Baughman's father, near Pi-
oneer, ..
