Lost Race OF the Monpngaheia.
The Pittsburg Commercial.


Several years ago considerable excite
ment was created in Paramount, West
Va, by the discovery of traces Of an old
macadamized road extending along the
right bank Of the Monongahcla, opposite
that place. Recently the government
engineering party engaged in the survey
Of the Upper Monongahela River, with
the vie = Of slack watering that stream
from Morgantown to Paramount examined
this old road, aud from the members OF
the party We learn that there can be no
doubt but that TINS road furnishes
another trace of the lost race that once
dominated the Continent long before the
Indians came into possession.
There are traces Of the road for nearly
eleven miles along the narrow strip OF
bottom land between the hills and the
river, though at many points the river.
having shifted it's channel and cut into
the hills. has entirely obiterated every
evidence of it. Generally the road is
covered by from two to five feet Of allu-
vium, either deposited through the course
Of agcs by the river floods. or else by the
slow Washing off the hills skirting it.
rs width is said to be fifteen feet.
The most curious feature about the
| road is that the stone from which it is
formed appears invariably to have been
| burnt. Wherever the road shows itself
ia the cutting banks, it is marked by
| the black substratum Of ashes. In depth
| the broken stone varies from six inches
! 60 eighteen inches, of irregular fragments.
The materials employed appears to have
been largely composed Of boulders of red
sandstone, and the conjecture is that
| they were broken after being made hot
with water thrown over them. There
being few ifany) houlders in the river
or adjacent coantry, the query arises,
where could the material have been OBJ
tanned 10 make this roadl
AZ thc crossings Of the streams there
arvno traces Of bridge abuunentS or piers,
which leads 20 the conclusion that the
streams were crossed o. wooden bridges.
At many points the road is covered with
trees over $50 years old, which makes il
certain that II was constructed long be-
fore the advent Of the white man. and
other circumstances surrounding the case
which leads inevitably to the conclusion
lt was made in those early ages when a
>cmi'ciylized people inhabited North
America. No one acquainted with the
habits Of the American Indians would
give them credit Tor constructing such q
work Of art as this.

Animal Meeting at the American
board Ok Missions.

The first session of the 66th annual
meeting Of the American board of foreign
missions met in Chicago the 9Th. The
years work, like that Of last year, is
characterized as unprosperous aud unia-
vorable. Money has not flowed readily,
as before the panic, and debts have been
somewhat increased. Incomes this year
from donations and legacies is S468,620,
or nearly $1,000 less than last yea.. Dis
bursements have been $450.238. The
total Indebtedness now is $l0,39O.
The report of the foreign secretary
shows that additions to churches in mis-.
sonary fields have been larger than usual
and prospects are bright Twelve mis-.
siOnaries have been released. Only TWEEN
ty new labOrers have gone out, though
calls for worlmen are urgent in the field
Of labor. Native pastors nearly equal
the missionaries in number, and some
of them are developing great power
and having great success. The
report concludes with brief no
tice of the work being done in various
countries, and with a general summary,
Of which The following are the principal
points: Number of missions Is; number
of stations rs; number of outstations 498;
laborers employed by missions 80; pages
printed for distribution 6.l74,7l4; num-
Der Of churches 223; members 1916;
added during the year 1904; number Of
pupils in educational departments D.
543.
The financial report shows that for the
year enGing August 3tst expenditures
largest item in this amount is for western
Turkey mission $S7 $50; the cost of
agencies was $500 of publications
S7,4ll; of administration Sl5, $3.50, making
the total expenditures $3.50. 23S, which
added to the debt of the board makes a
grand total Of about $456,59l. The do
nations have been $349, 1854; legacies $780,
7O2; other assets making a total of R446,-
lS4. The total Indebtedness of the
board is $44,323.

itself. These letters showed atruly mar
velous advance; for whereas a dozen
years ago writer's and speakers were adj
yocating in vain to the most advanced
communities the benefits Incorporation,
here now were thousands OF the old con-
seryatye Pennsylvania Dutch farmers
throwing themselves heartily into the
work of an order, She chief feature OF
which is cooperative buying and selling
by producers.
Ii noticeable that though the long
picnic stories in the Friend dwell mostly
on the crowds that attended this and
that lestivity, and tell rather what they
had to eat than what the speech makers
said, they usually conclude with very
practical statement about the thou.
sands OF dollars worth of
goods bought by the Grange
through It's agents The Pennsylvanans
now have a State purchasing agent, with
a large store in Philadelphia, which is
| filled from top to bottom with samples for
the benefit Of visiting patrons who wish
to buy through the agent at wholesale
rates. The majority of the order in those
parts seem to delight in this arrangement,
and their letters are all aglow with the
fine bargains they have made and the
thousands of dollars they have saved in
this way.
II is Of small use TO present gltteriug
general.es in support Of the statement
that the Grange is really the great rising
power in the land which many patrons
say it is. Fortunately facts and figures
arc not wanting. IL is pretty good sub.
sanitation of the assertion that the
Changers number million and half to
find that the merely nominal sum paid by
tile subordinateS to the National Grange
gave that body in 1874 an income Of
S2lG,3Sl. 1t receipts have so increased
beyond all calculation that some new
means Of using the excess must be decid
ed upon, or else the fees must be reduced.
In yieM OF such prosperity, 1T is almost
! possible to believe what one of the organs
Of the order says about The pecuniary
benefits accruing to members, viz, that
they have saved $2l,000,000 through ITS
machinery already.
