She was a most intense sufferer from the pain attendant upon the advances I of the disease. The contracting 1 aud I drawing of the bones and cords of' the body was agoniziDg. To see the j frightfullv distorted and emaciated ; remaius of what was once a beautiful i and perfect woman would give only | a partial idea of what Mrs. Bullock j suffered. The lady was thirty-six years old at the time of her death. When thirteen years of age she was a plump girl, at tendant upon the Washburn street school here. One day, with other playmates, she climbed a tree io the neighborhood of school, and was dared to jump from one of the branehbS. This she did, breaking her collar Done and injuring her right knee. A swelling appear ed on the inside of the knee which troubled her more or less as the years advanced. In 1873 medical aid wa3 first called in to treat her for her knee, the pain from which had grown to be quite severe, she having caught cold iu the membar while skating. She married iu 1874. Some years later her bones begftn to stiffen aud aud trouble her some. Five years ago the joints became hardened and ossified and she was helpless. Her teeth were all drawn out from the upper jaw and both jaws set. Physicians inserted a piece of thin wood between the lower set of teeth and the gums to keep the teeth from injuring them. It was about three months after the first appearance of the rigidity of tie bones before the body was completely affected. Her health was completely undermined, and the last five years she has been tailing gradually from day to day. The effect can he realized when from a strong, health iu! woman weighing 108 pounds she faded away to almost a mere skeleton weighing only thirty pounds when sbi died. Her joints not only hardened but the cords of the body contracted aud drew them into all manner of shapes. The hip joint oil the right side was completely out *>f the socket, and protruded frightfully. The left limb was drawn out ot shape, as were the hand and head. She subsisted on food prepared for her. She fed herself. A tooth in the lower inet being removed to admit the uourisament. Her right, hand was motionless, but her left she was able to guide a little. She was thus ena bled TO write some. She read easily talk'*! readily to the timo of her death. F*jr the past three years Mrs. Bul locfc resided with her father in this city She was patient and never was ka'>wn to complain: The only simi- Jai case, and then i*. was not such a markod degree as this, is that or Jon athan Bass, the ossified man, of Lew iston, this county. Bass is perfectly rigid, but has not the contraction of hisjoints. Mrs. Bullock's disease is called chalky gout and chalky rheum atism, and many other names per taining to diseases of the bone. Children's Eodies Petrified. PITTSBURG, April 27. —Elizabeth, Allegheny County, has a cemetery the ground iu which has peculiar qualities for the petrification of bodies interred in it. During the past few years several disinterments have been made in the cemetery, a»« in every instance the bodies were found in dif ferent stages of petrifaction. Some were entirely turned to solid stone. In others the process was yet incom plete. A few days ago the remains of two children «if A. B. O'Neil were exhum ed for rft uoval to another cemetery. The body of the younger child, who was '£ v«;ars old when he owu or city iu which the wide awake merchant does not prosper and vice versa a town or city with thriving business men and houses must be a prosperous place it self. Hence iu the pawing of a SIOOO soda fountain in oi*n of her drug Btotes. Butler has re isou to congratu late herself and to lay claim to being a thrifty and prosperous town—or city if you please,—with enterprizing business men. Some time ago we noted the opening ot C. X. Boyd's Drug Store and gave a description of it which then was as handsome a store as you coul*l fiuu anywhere, but by continual effect be has been beau tifying it con9 u autly aud the fiual poiut was reached the other day when the new fouutain was put in po sition It was designed under Mr. Boyd's directions and is certainly as handsome a fountain as cau be fouud anywhere. Standir.g over ton feet high, aud weighing over a ton. it is constructed of marbles brought from seven differ ent par.H of the world. The lront is of Genoa Green Marblo, and very handsome it looks with its exquisite finish und elegant tint. Red Tennes see uvirble i 3 what the sides ure and its curiously mottled texture serves well to show off the quieter beauty of the black marble base. The coping is also of black marble aud on it, like the base, ure gilded lines, contrasting with, and bringing out well, the deep and rich tone of the stone. Black marble pillars support a can opy of Bardillo aud Urvotte marble, -—in the centre of which is a plate of Mexican ouyx serving as a base lor the name plate of silver. Below is a large Plate Glass mir ror surro ended by Tennessee marble. At the bane are twelve syrnp faucets aud inside a dozen corresponding jars all of glaas, from which come the fla vors, of Mr. Boyd's own make, which give the agreeable taste to the soda water. Above are three larger fau cets, one for soda water, the others for different kinds of mineral waters. Nearby stands the water fountaiu and tumbler washer. By a neat and very ingenious method the tumblers, revolving on a stand, are subjected to a continual spray from above and below, which results in the tumblers always being sweet and clean. That the fountain is being appreciated is' evinced by the continual crowd of people around it these warm days On last Saturday, it took the uuited attention of Mr. Buyd aud oue of his clerks to attend to the wants of the thirsty It is a matter of satisfaction to ijveryore to know tbat Mr. Boyd makes every thing used in his fouu taiu, from alpha to omega, and all of the verv best and purest materials, resyardless of cost. Mr Boyd belives iu giving nothiug but the best, and we l>elieve that anything purchased at his store is as pure as can be got ten. This tolls on the public, too, as bis trade shows and its a tribute to the intelligence of the people. A man may,as a matter of economy, purchase a cheap suit of clothes, or shoes, but when it comes to drugs and chemi cals he wisely considers that the best policy is to "get the perfectly pure. He naturally goes to the place where he has most reason to expect these and where the testimony of many others insures careful treatment, and reasonable prices. Since everyone must, at some time or other buy drugs we respectfully submit the fact that it would he to your interest to begin dealing at Boyd's right away. If you don't want drugs, and do want a glass of wda water there is the piace to get it, but we would confidently inform you tbat it won't benefit you a parti te, to give the clerk a wiuk before telling him you will take vanilla in yours. April Oil Report. The oil report for April shows that the great shut-down has almost en tirely cut off drilling operations. Onlv fifty wells were completed in the the oil fields of Pennsylvania and J New York, twenty of which were dry j aoles. This is a remarkable showing ' 'or the 9pring time. The production ; >f the new wells is only 519 barrels a lay. For May the showing will he sven less, as many of the wells now 1 killing iu the Washington and i Danonsburg districts will lie shut in )r added to the steadily-growing list )f the Producers' Protective Associa tion. The shutdown will end Novem oer 1, but it will continue by consent )f all parties concerned tor one year rom that date, by which time it is ;xpected thet the great surplus stock >n hand will be wiped out aud the aroductiou will be about equal to the iaily consumption. At the close of the month twenty jeven were standing and fifty line wells were drilling. Many of these wells are drilling for gas and several will be altogether shut down.
