OBITUARY.

Mr.. Clark COFman was born in
Mason Co., W. Va, February aSth,
1898, and departed this life at his
late residence here in Middleport,
December eth, 1909, at the ripe
age of 81 years. 9 months and go
days.
He was veteran of the Civil war,
having served his country as a SER
geant in Company D of the It'll W.
Va. Cavalry, from Sept. /, 1868, to
August lst, 1865, when he was hon
orably discharged by reason of the
close of the war. Captain G. W.
Harms, who commanded the COM
pany, bore record that in his judy
ment a better or drawer soldier than
Sergeant Cofman never rode a horse
into battle. With such a record it
seems eminently fitting that the
beautiful flag of the nation that
draped his casket should be buried
with him.
Several years after the close of the
war, on August Is, 1878, he was
married in Sciota Co., to Miss Ada
line vansky. To bless this Union
there were born two daughters, Julia
NJ. and Leah F., the latter dying in
infancy. The elder daughter, who
is now Mrs. Captain Howder, OF
Elizabeth, Allegheny Co., Pa, sur
wives, with her widowed mother, to
mourn for the dead.
He was member of the G. A. R.
Post No. 1875, of Middleport, Ohio.
Members of that post conducted
the burial services of the order over
the body of a cOmrade who had re-
sponded to that last roll call to which
we all must respond sooner or later.

per cent in horsepower is claimed fol
a device of which an exhibition demon
stratlon was given in Chicago recently
by +. j, DOYLE and witnessed by the

The secret Of the apparent effective.
ness OF the appliance is said 30 lie in
the fact that il causes perfect com
bustion. The coal is transformed into
coke, the gases from the coal being
consumed in the process, and then the
coke is burned.
To equip a locomotive Of the types
now in use would cost about 500. but it
is asserted that the device viii pay for
itself in a few months Should the
railroads decide 10 use the device. how
ever. the new locomotives would be
built accordingly and without any ad-
ditional expense.
In addition 10 preventing smoke and
saving fuel, the appliance is said 10 re
