NEW cHINAwARE MATERIAL

A process has been newly discov-
cred whereby artificial ultramarine
can be made from china clay, from
which all chinaware is made, includ-
ing the most beautiful porcelains.
The main source of supply of the
finest china clay is the county of
Cornwall, in England. The stuff is
not clay, properly speaking. It is
an earth, which, when dug out of
the ground, is found mixed with
coarse white sand. From the latter
it is separated by floating it off in
tanks Of water, the heavy particles
of sand falling quickly to the bot
TOM Then it is spread on pans and
put into kilns to bake. When partly
dried in the kilns it is cut into
blocks suitable for handling. The
blocks thus prepared, being very
friable, are readily pulverized to a
sort of mineral -four, which is the
raw material for chinaware.

ODD IDEA ABOUT LIGHTNING
In oIden Times Death From Stroke
Was Considered a Direct
Favor From Gods.

Although thunderstorms have
been numerous this summer and
lightning severe, the reported num-
Der of persons struck has been COM
paratiyely small. However, deaths
due to lightning are more numerous
than is thought by most persons. In
one recent year, for which reports
were gathered and published by the
United States weather bureau, SOB
persons were killed by sky bolts.
in the olden days, when supersti-
ton held greater sway, it was be-
lieved that death by lightning was
an especial mark of favor from the
gods. In the rare cases when light
ming struck without fatal effects the
survivors were held in high honor
as having been touched directly by
supernatural powers. OF those who
died it was said their bodies we're
preserved forever.
But, naturally, there was no live
ly yearning among the ancients for
such honors, enjoyed in the flesh or
post-humously. Charms against
lightning were in demand, although
it must have puzzled the logical
Greek or Roman to reconcile the
wearing of such fetiches with the
belief that lightning-struck persons
were beloved Of Jupiter and his
lesser lights. Images of the eagle
and the sea calf and pictures of the
laurel were held in high esteem as
preseryatives against lightning.

MECHANICS BANK SITUATION.
Richmond Voice.)


Much has been said, much of il idle
gossip in reference to the Mechanics
Bank situation. A proposition has been
offered the people and this proposition
may open the closed bank. Depositors
are asked to sigh petition waving Il
part of their balance in order that suf
ficient money may be left in the bank
TO guarantee a safe operation OF the
affairs Of the institution. The question
is, are enough people representing a
large enough sum of money willing ~
sign this petition? II these can be
found then the receivership may be
vacated and the bank pay of part of
the depositors money to them.
From the failure of the Reformers s
Bank to the present, depositors have
gained but a little in waiting on re-
ceivers. Better q half loaf than none
at all. The very heart Of the defun,ct
institution is being eaten out now and
unless some group acts quickly moth.
ing will be realized. 1t is the opinion
OF many of the readers OF this paper
that action now may save a great fin
ancfal loss. Act now think now but BY
all means make move.
