RICHTER.

Jean Paul Richter was born in 1853,
in Bavaria. His father and grandfather
were school teachers, but they achieved
no fame. Why, then, did Richter attain
such towering height? Let us look
into his life, into his views of teaching.
He possessed powerful intellect, far
seeing eye, strong physical cOnstitu-
tiOn, a powerful reasoning faculty, and
a vivid imagination. Note, we do not
say he knew more of the studies his pu-
pills were to pursue than his father or
grandfather. He stopped to think. He
asked himself: What is education? Am
/ educatingP These were questions sell
dom asked, and so we conclude that
Richter was philosopher. He began to
study the work of the teacher as Pesta-
lOZZi did; he tried to ascertain the wants
of his generation, and then having ac-
cOmplished this, to carry on his work in
the school room in accordance with
the light he had received. Richter had
a little primary school, for the Germans
employ no women as teachers, and we
find him rebelling against the idea of
stuffing children's minds with book
knowledge. He fought against forcing
them to learn by heart the usual things
found in books. He filed his own mind
first, then securing attention he awak-
ened love of study by telling them of
the wonderful things in the world. By
continually asking questions he led
them to exert their own powers; he set
them to inquiring, to investigating, to
observing. He often spoke to them of
the beautiful, the good and the grand.
His pupils loved to be with him; they
did not feel that they were in school,
but with one who loved them and lifted
them above themselves. His humOT-filled
cOuDtenance beamed on them and made
them cheerful. His plan of interspers-
ing physical exercise relieved the ennui
and made them happy. Richter soon at
tracted the attention of others; he was
asked to write out his views. His chief
works are "Levana," "Flegeljahre, :"
"Hesperus," and Titan" In ali of these
the falsity of the old method of teaching
and governing children are set torch.
Their need of proper training is con-
stantly exhibited. But he did more than
explain his method of teaching. 1t was
soon apparent that he vas able to in
struct the most gifted men and women
in Germany, as well as the children in
his school. Carlyle says of him: "Rich-
ter stands before us a colossal spirit; a
lofty and original thinker, genuine
poet, a highminded, true and most ami
able man." Let it not be said, then, that
a primary teacher occupies low place
when Richter adorned it."

"Oh, how nice," said Mrs. s. pouring

"Luck2 Why, you lost your coin all

STORED ELECTRICITY.
Successful Experiment on an
Ocean Steamer.

The steamship Labrador, which arriV-
ed in New York last week had on board
145 Faure accumulatOrs charged with
electricity. With these some Maxim,
Swami, and Edison lights were kept
bnrning, which lighted the smoking
room, engine-rOOm and one state-r0Om.
These accumulatOrs were of two sizes,
one weighing 125 pounds and contain
ing an amount of electricity equal to
working force of One-hOrse power given
out during one hour, and the other
weighing forty pounds and containing
One-third that quantity. They are in
the hands of Walter B. Whiting, who, in
company with James R. HOsmer, intends
to organize the "FauTe Light and Force
Company" The accumulatOrS were
charged three weeks ago, and the voy--
age occupied thirteen days. A series of
thirty kept eight lights burning, one or
five, one of sixteen, one of six, and one
of fifty candles power. Ot the SO,OUO
amperes of electricity stored In all the
accumulators only 500 were used. These
accumulatOrs are used in lighting the
Pullman cars running from London to
Brighton, and it is expected that they
will be largely used as sources or lgnt
and other purposes. AS regards their
economy, Mr.. Whiting was asked the
proportion of the number of horsepower
employed in charging a series 10 the
number of horsepower that could be et-
fectively used from it. "We don't estl-
mate it in that way" he said, I'VE use
gas machine to run the dynamO-electric
machine employed in charging the ac-
cumulatOrs. We measured the gas con-
sumed and found that the electricity in
the accumulators would give a much
larger quantity of light than the gas
which was used"

In an interview to-day with prominent
railroad man. who has been identified for
number of wears in several railway pro-
iects. and has kept himself well posted, IN.
forms us that no less than four corps OF
engineers will shortly be pat into the neio

iect, the gentleman informs US, IS 10 get
into the coal fields of eastern ONO, ior
the reason that the coal is oil superior
quality to any that has been found OUTSIDE
of the No. /, or what is generally known
as the Massillon and Brier Hill coal. Inc
interest Of the people all along the line OF
the w. RI. L. railroad, that is now con-
structed, is to have the east end pushed or
ward al once, for fear that some other In,
terests might vet control the trade and
traffic that rightfully belongs to this line.
IL the same effort is now made TO ouilo the
east end, by those who have secured the
road, as those who have projected and done
the work for years, there would be no din

The Souih Penna. Road.

The engineers on the South Penn road
have finished the preliminary survey,
which extends as far as Mowersville, about
seven miles from Shippensburg, and will
now return to the Burnt Cabins to locate
the route permanently from that point
The engineers are instructed TO move
slowly and carefully that they may secure
the best route and the easiest grade
possible Short curves are to be avoided, and
the grade nowhere is to exceed ffty-two
feet to the mile. All this goes to show
that the South Penn intend to build, aud
that first-class road is the object in view.
This being the case, Cumberland valley
will no doubt be the favored route, when it
is likewise considered that the road can be
made 5000 per mile cheaper than the
Marysville.
The foregoing article, clipped from n
Harrisburg paper of a late date, is handed
US by Gen. J. +. Temple, who has just re.
turned from the East, and who is perhaps
better acquainted with the eastern end Of the
South Pennsylvania Railroad than any
of our people here. He assures US that
the Cumberland Valley is. decidedly the
best route for the proposed railroad. and
further says that should it be adopted the
road will be certain to pass through Greene
county by Waynesburg and the route al
ready surveyed, en- its way to Wheeling
This sounds as If there was hope tor Little
Greene yet, in regard TO the South Penn
sylyania railroad. - Wnynesburg Messenger
