Of Q, our citizens to the propriety of having
their families vaccinated, and thus save
much suffering in the event of the visit of
the smallpox in our midst. This loath
some disease is prevailing to an alarming
extent in Philadelphia, New York and other
cities as an epidemic, and 10 one can tell
how soon it may make US visit in an epi-
demic form. The preventive of this dis
ase-vaccination-is available for every
person in the city, and hence we deem IL
our duty, in just regard for the general
health of the city, to call attention to The
importance Of this sanitary measure.

NOBLE EXCEPTIoNs.-In referring to
the fact, few days after the election, that
Republicans had to be paid for their SER
vices on election day, we, of course, did
not intend to be understood as saying that
there were none who did not demand and
receive pay, for there were exceptions.
Among them, and as efficient workers, we
name the Smith brothers, sons of DR.. E.
IL. Smith, who, with the father, performed
laborious duties during the entire day. We
give these gentlemen credit for their patri-
otisnl, and the energy and devotion display
ed by them on the occasion. They are
generally to be found in the thickest of the
fight.

The Coal Market.

The anthracite coal trade continues ex-
ceedingly dull, and though prices are in the
main unchanged, the tendency is rather to
lower figures, especially for Schuylxill coal.
The supply of coal is falling off considerably
from that particularregion, and is less from
almost all OF the coal regions. The demand
for coal is light, consumers eonlining their
purchases to their current wants. The con-

An Insect Tran.

The American Pathological Society, at
its last meeting, appointed committee to
examine into the merits of trap designed
for the destruction of apple worms, and we
are informed that the verdict was favorable.
Thomas Weir is the inventor of the trap,
and we are not aware that he claims an
exclusive right to the use of his contrivance,
nor that he has attempted to cover it by a
patent. The trap consists simply of two
or more thin strips Of board, twelve to
twenty inches in length, and two to four
inches wide. These are placed together
and a long screw is driven through them
into the trunk of the tree, just below the
branches, on the north side. The screw
holds the boards firmly in position.
When the trap is to be set. put few
bits of straw between the boards so as
to keep them slightly apart.
BY the 10th of June the trap should be set,
for soon after that time the first brood of
worms begin to leave the apples in search
Of a safe place in which to weave their CO.
coons and undergo their trans formation in
to moths. They naturally avail themselves
of the first convenient shelter, and as trap
apparently affords this, they stow them
selves snugly away between the boards
and spin their cocoons. Within two
weeks the trap should be visited. Sepa-
rate the boards by turning them on the
screw so they will radate like the spokes of
wheel, and the cocoons can be scraped
off and destroyed. The operation of turn
ing the boards is not always easily perform
ed, for the cocoons bind them tightly to-
gether. The boards must be turned en-
tirely round, as many worms take shelter
between them and the tree. If the whole
of the frs brood is caught, there will be
no more trouble for the season, but the
traps are to be reset, as they will probably
secure parts of the successive broods, and
save great deal of fruit.

NEW DECALOGUE
was laid down as the second decalogue of
new Judaism:
lst. They believe in an eternal, indivisi-
BILE and immuta5le unity of God, who is
the source Of all, the Father of all man
kind, hearing the prayers Of all His child
rem without any mediator.
ID. Man is gifted with an immortal soul
to be good and to do good, to love men and
God, and thus to be contented in the present
state of life as well as in the next world.
Sd. The Mosaic religion is capable OF an
infinite progress.
4th. The spirit of the sacred Scripture
must be conceived, and all and everything
tnat proves itself as temporary and local
must be discarded from Judaism. Having
acquired perfect knowledge of the SUBJ
ject, a free inquiry and Interpretation may
be exercised and the Scriptural text ex-
pounded by the common rules of grammar.
logic and rhetoric.
9th, 9th, 7th and Sth are nearly the same
as embodied in article 4.
9th. A Messiah who shall lead back the
lsraelites to Palestine, is neither expected
nor wished for. The true lsraelite con.
siders the. country where he was horn, OF
where he gained his citizenship-his Pals
tine.
10Th. The idea of Messan;c destiny o
Israel is to be retained Israel's holy mis-
sion Is to become the redeeming Messiah o
all mankind, teaching and preaching thC
truth.

Improvements on the college grounds, An sx-
perimental garden is to be Kept where students
may receive practical instructions in HorticuI-
