We heard some time since that the Board
OF Education for the State would appoint
Captain A. NJ. Pierce as the superintend-
ent OF public schools for Frederick county,
but We treated 1t as Joke. Nevertheless,
by an announcement in the Richmond
Wing, 1t turns out that the rumor was
true. This action on the part Of the State
Board would indicate that the public
school system Is to be made part and par
eel OF the partisan political machinery by
which the State Is to be controlled and run
In the interests Of Malone. We are A
friend OF the public schools, and should
like to see the system so developed as
to be glory to the State; and we
deprecate any action which tends
to impair their usefulness, IL not
destroy them altogether. We have
noted the appointments OF this Ma
hone State Board, and we have come TO the
conclusion that 1t not only fails In conform.
Ing 70 the wishes Of those interested in the
schools, but that It's purpose seems to be de.

How bismarck Overfeeds Himself.

II. James GaZetteJ
Prince Bismarck's health, the public OF
two continents will hear with interest, Is
improving-that Is, the bad attack of indi-
gestion from which the great statesman is
suffering is passing over. AS a matter OF
fact, we believe, the frequent indispositions
OF the Chancellor are mainly due to this
cause. Like many other hard workers,
Prince Bismarck is practically one-meal
man; he does not like parton Solido demere
de die, and eats little till the business of day
is practically got through. Then he dimes
not wisely, but great deal too well. Not

HOW THE PEOPLE OF AN ONO VILLAGE LEAD
LIVES OF CONFINEMENT.
TCleveland Herald.I

TCleveland Herald.l
About eighty miles from Cleveland and
six miles south OF Mineral Point, the ter.
minus OF the Valley road at the Wheeling
junction OF the Wheeling and Lake Erie
railroad, there is quaint little old village
known as Zoar, inhabited by a strange,
frugal, and industrious people, the happi-
est perhaps in the world. They know no
care; nothing worries and troubles them.
A large number OF them never saw the
outside Of their beautiful home. veritable
paradise, and trouble themselves little, II
any, about the turmoil and striies Of the
wicked world. The colony was first
founded in 1917 by Huber and Ackermann,
two Germans, the former a native Of
Wurtemburg and the latter hailing from
Bavaria. Shortly afterwards, in the same
year, they and few followers from the
same country formed community and
named it Zoar, because they looked upon
their home as place OF refuge from the
world, which they termed SOdOm and
Gomorrah. The first two houses which
Huber and Ackermann built in 1871
quaint, antique structures-are still inhab-
tied Ey the descendants OF the two pio-
neers. They are built OF logs and mortar,
and contain but one large room, sparsely
furnished. The windows are small, each
containing nine panes OF glass about six
inches square. The roofs are covered with
tiles, as are those OF all the houses erected
up to 1850, when the art OF tile-making
died out in Zoar.
The inhabitants, who have no desire to
amass wealth, work for one common end
that is, for the good Of the community,
which owns and controls the village, in
GLIDING thousands OF acres of the richest
land in the Buckeye State. The money
goes into one common treasury, the neccs-
saries o; life, includingtfood, provisions,
and garments, are furnished by the village
officials. consisting OF three trustees and a
committee OF five, who are annually elected
by ballot. The village contains about
three hundred inhabitants, which number
has been the same since 1917 and never in
creases or decreases to any noticeable ex-
tent. There are no preachers, but all the
people are devout, whorshiping after the
manner OF the Friends. The marriage VOW
is held sacred and the laws are rarely bro
