gagged in extensive cattle stealing,

Sojourner Truths Real Age.

Sojourp er Truth has not soionrned
so long in this vale of tears as cur
rent report would make out. HAY
ing heard her spoken of as about
sixty, twenty-five or thirty years
ago, the recent statement that she
is 100 or 108 years old seemed i'm
probable. The Rev. Samuel J. Rog-
ers, in the Christian at Work, of
Oct. 26, has unraveled "the yarn"
by quoting from the narrative of
her life-prepared by a friend at
her direction, when she was in the
prime Of life, and her mind was
clear, and published in Boston in
1s57-the following statement: "The
subject OF this biography
was born as near as she can calcu-
late, between the years OF 1907 and
1900" All the incidents ana details
OF the narrative which Mr.. Rogers
had before him confirm the state
ment. Two or three years before
1910 she was first sold at auction for
800, being then only nine years
old. At her last masters she lived
eighteen years, beginning in 1910,
and had been there several years be-
fore she was married, and in 1928,
when the slaves were emancipated
in New York, her children were
small. She IS probably not more
than eighty-fve years old, or, at the
utmost, eighty-seyen. Mr.. Rogers
says very beautifully: During the
years of the war Sojourner was a
welcome and a frequent visitor to
our home, and it is because of the
high esteem in which we held her
that l would make less Of her age
and more of the real nobility of hel
character -ChTiStiGn Ad0OcGte.

in introducing the Dean of West

Longfellow Memorial Committee,
said they wanted the Deans consent
to allow bust of Longfellow to be
placed in Westminster Abbey, as a
Testimonial to a grateful and tender
poet. The Dean unhesitatingly con-
sented, and after paying a graceful
tribute to LongfelloW, referred
touchingly to Washington Irving,
and to the relations between the
two countries whose ties were as
strong as links of iron.

HO for POrtIaDdi

Is it not fair to presume that it is
the duty of every teacher in Jackson
county to attend the Monthly?
Why is it any more the duty Of a
score Of teachers to visit these meet
ings, than of the seventy-fve who
stay away? | am in favor Of new
order of things, which order Of things
may be established by Boards of Ex-
aminers. Let it be a rule to reject non
participants in teachers meetings.
| know the proposition seems ex-
treme, and for it 1 may be criticized,
but the time is, when simple knowl-
edge Of things to be taught, is not suf-
fcient. The world is moving. Method
is the battle cry. To do, without re-
gard to ho'e or pohy, is not satisfactory.
There are numbers Of teachers in
our county who are never seen in a
teachers meeting, and seem to regard
it as wholly unnecessary that they
should ever be there. They take no
Educational And now comes the
question in sincerity, are these teach
ers living and acting in the spirit of
the times? Are they possessed of
that fraternal feeling and brotherly
sympathy which actuate and enthuse
the members Of all professions and
vocations in life? Do they realize
the sweet satisfaction that comes from
an exchange Of personal experience
and holy endeavor to do our work
we'll? The time is, I say. when ''how
to do" is the paramount question. And
much more than half of this is to be
learned from the experience of others.
But the caption Of this article indi-
Gates visit to Portland. Let US hope
that there will be general turning
out. A conservation of one short day
to the best interests Of our vocation,
and manifestation ON the part of
Jackson county teachers to take ad-
vantage of all the means within their
reach to elevate ;he standard of our
schools.
If perchance, | have offended a
teacher in the course of these few de-
sultory remarks, let him be present at
our meeting on next Saturday, and by
stating his point Of ofense, and show
ing me wherein I have erred in my
assertions, produce argument that
may convince me that | am wrong. ]

ance, he began to kick her, then tear
ing his right arm loose, he raised the
knife again, and was just about to
plunge it in her bosom, when Philip
Hairch, a neighhoring butcher, who
had heard the woman's terrified
screams, dashed in and grasped the
uplifted arm Had he been ten sec
onds later the long, keen blade would
have found a resting place in human
heart. The butcher and the mailman
struggled together, while the wife
escaped. Then Hairch gave up the
contest, leaving Vorndieke in the
room by himself. A moment later
sound as of a heavy body falling was
heard in the room, and when the door
was burst open the body of the shoe
maker was found lying in pool of
blood on the floor. He had evidently
gone to the bureau, opened drawer,
and taking his razor, had stood before
the mirror and cut his throat. The
glass was all stained with the blood
which had spurted forth, as was also
the washstand some little distance
away. The cut was one Of the most
terrible conceivable. The head was
almost severed from the body, the
windpipe, and both the left and right
jugular veins and carotid arteries being
cut. His clothing was all Redeemed
with blood, and as he lay there on the
floor, that horrible cash in his neck
gaping wide open, what wonder his
wife tainted at the sickening sight?

E. w. MITCHELL put up five electric lamps
last week, and has had them in operation every
night since Thursday, and will have them burn
seven nights in ALL
Mr.. Mitchell says the necessary machinery,
in addition to his engine and fixtures, already
in use at his foundry, will cost 5000. He says
he can afford to put up ten lamps, at such
points as the Council may designate, for 81 200
per year. He can also put in small lamps, in
busin ess houses, Offices and residences, at rea-
sonable rates.
The machinery and fixtures are furnished by
the U. S. Electrical Light Co., New York, and
Post & Co. of Cincinnati are their agents.
Our town must be lighted in some way. Some
are in favor Of gas; some of this new light. We
do not pretend to understand this matter, and
hope the Village Council and the people will
give the matter calm, careful investigation,
and decide wisely which light they will adopt;
but let us have some kind of light.

LAST Saturday night, just after dark,
Miss Ida Hanna was going home, and
when near her home, a man struck her
on the back of the head, cutting a cash,
and knocking her down. Miss Hanna
says that she met on Portsmouth Street
Frank Meacham, a neighbor with whom
she is well acquainted, and readily recog-
nized him, as the electric light at the
Gibson House Corner made the street
quite light. She says that after Meacham
passed her he turned and walked on be-
hind her, and that it was he who struck
her. Meacham denies it all. He was
arrested, and will have hearing before
Mayor James at 8 o'clock on Wednesday

THE COAL MINER!
BY DEACON SLASuER.


Away from the glare of the morning light
Hid from the rays of the sunbeams bright,
Close In his darkened room,
In an atmosphere that is dull and damp,
His only companions his pick and lamp,
The miner works in gloom.
From morn till evening his pick-ax swings,
And the crumbling wall of his dark room rings
From the blows of his sturdy arm,
As he tumbles the ebony diamonds down
Meath roof that hangs, with lowering frown--
And he feels not the least alarm.
For he firmly braces his narrow way,
AS he labors onward, day by day,
Through the dark and varying vein,
And he carefully lays the narrow track
And brings the fruits of his labor back
Till he sees the light again.
The mill. the furnace, the parlor grand,
Look to the work of his ready hand
For food for their cheering fires;
And the pleasant knowledge of doing good
While earning his portion of daily food
The miners heart inspires.
Let wealth not sneer-let pride mock not
The humble sphere of the miners lot,
He's the peer of any man;
While wealth is tippling. its vintage old,
The miner tolls in the damp and cold,
And does what good he can.
Oblivious all to the sunbeams bright
The miner tolls in an endless night
By his Pickering lamps dull glare;
With tireless strength and careless song,
Happy, contented, he tolls along,
In the damp and musty air.
All hail to the miner with pick and pail,
And heart that in danger will never fall,
And spirit bold and free!
As he tolls and sings in the mines so damp,
With heart more light than his blazing lamp,
Who so happy as hep

they mean that they are willing to
reap the benefits of others labor, but
are not willing to shoulder any
responsibility themselves. Fellow
Teachers, VIC are all willing to admit
that Teachers Monthly is beneficial,
that it is good organization, and
that it deserves success. Then let US
individually assist by our presence and
cooperation in making it successful.
We can not afford to sli ight any means
that will make our work better, and
if we keep up with the spirit of the
age, we must be willing to instruct
and be instructed. Our work is the
noblest, with but one exception, of all
the labors upon earth, its effects will
be felt through future years, and we,
who occupy the important position Of
instructors of the young, should feel
the weighty responsibility resting
upon us. The Present is an age of
improvement, and if we keep step with
the demands Of the age, we must
awake to the Importance Of our pro-
fession, note our influence, become
willing to be instructed and gladly
adopt those methods which others
have found to be beneficial. [ do not
desire to be understood as saying that
we should follow entirely the work OF
some successful teacher, because
fully believe that the teacher who
makes success in the profession
must be inventive, and devise method:
Of his own, but there are some meth
DDS which we learn at our Monthly
that will richly repay the teacher wht
adopts them. With such vast pow

Teachers Monthly.

For the Standard:
A few months ago, several of the
teachers Of Jackson co., met and Or
ganized what is known as the Teach
ers Monthly
In some respects, this association
has been successful, but it has not yet
achieved the success that such an Or
ganization deserves.
What is most needed to make our
meetings efficient and interesting, is
an increased attend. nee of Teachers.
At the last meeting Of the Monthly,
held at Oak Hill, a committee was ap-
pointed to ''devise ways and means for
increasing the interest and efficiency
of these meetings., and to report the
result Of observations in one Of the
county papers. Owing to a system of
rotation" the undersigned had been
unable to attend the previous meet
ings of the Monthly, and as it was
supposed that he could give some in
formation regarding the non-attend-
ance of teachers, he was chosen a
member of the committee. I have
observed" and beg leave to report OBJ
servations. Some of our teachers did
not learn the time or place Of holding
the last meeting Of the Monthly, until
they were informed that it had ''come
and gone" Others had heard of the
meeting, but were afraid they would
be asked to perform some duty. Still
others did not attend because the top
les discussed at the Monthly are not
"practical.'' and so on, ad infnitum.
Now, Fellow Teachers, is it not our
duty to ascertain when and where the
meetings are held? Is it not our duty
to perform the work assigned II ? Let
US be honest in regard to the matter.
Can we consistently ask our pupils to
perform the work we assign them to
do, if we, ourselves, refuse to assist
in any good and beneficial enterprise?
Our meetings are complained Of be-
cause they are not practical" Well,
Mr.. Practical Teacher, attend the
meetings of the Monthly, and by your
zeal and energy, infuse into the minds
of the struggling Theoretical teach
ers" your practical methods. We need
your advice and judgment if your COM:
plant is true, and will gladly welcome
you. There are few teachers who
are willing to attend the Monthly if
they are ''let alone" By this term

THERE are some things people want
to know, and some things they have
right to know. The Standard was
never more prosperous than it is now.
We have all the advertisements for
which we can find room, and we re-
ject a good many, especially patent
medicine advertisements. Advertisers
have a right to know just what the
circulation of paper is, and the kind
OF persons who take the paper
whether they pay up or not. Our
subscription list is corrected and print
ed every Tuesday, and any one is well
come to call and count the names. and
see who has paid, and who is in ar
rears
We have concluded to publish the
number of papers printed, and the
names and amounts paid each week,
up to Saturday night. We will con-
tinue this for few weeks, at any rate.
+ Now if you want your name in the
paper, send us a dollar or two.

JUDGE BRADBURY, while holding
Court at Pomeroy short time ago,
sent four men to Jail and kept them
there over night, and then fined them
$40 and costs each, and gave them a
free lecture. These smart alecks were
witnesses in liquor case, and tried to
evade the truth, by talking about
having got 'bitters'' from defendant.
