ABOUT TRAVELLING.


How times have changed, a few years
ago a Belmont County man in Europe
was heard of only at very rare intervals;
but quick passages and low rates have
changed all that, and now trips to Europe
are by no means infrequent, and are at
tended by little more preparation than
was trip to New York twenty years ago.
A business man of Cleveland has rela-
ted to Leader reporter how cheaply he
made five weeks trip, taking in Liver
pool, London. and Paris. Here is state
ment of his expenditures:
Round trip ticket from Cleveland to London
FSnsnses ana s@ii5 in London two weeks..-.. 80
Expenses in Paris two weeks s.-.---..---...- Il 80
EXPENSES in Liverpool one week k..--.....-- 20
Expenses between Cleveland and New York 90
He took second cabin on the City of
Paris, the greyhound of the ocean, and
expresses himself well satisfied with the
sleeping accommodations and table ser
vice He wore business suit, and took
no luggage except what he could carry in
a gripSack -underclothing, shirts, and the
like. He spent two weeks in Paris, walk
ing a great deal, and paying but little for
cabs. Admission to the Exposition costs
but 20 cents, and once in it is best to spend
the day there. Good meals can be OBJ
tanned without going out, for II cents.
The gentleman explains that he deter
mined tn see how cheanly the trip could
be decently made.

TUESDAY is entitled to the belt. Just
how high the mercury reached we are not
prepared to state, but this we do know:
At Pattersons' store door at o'clock P.
NJ it marked 9O0, and there was but little
letting up until nearly midnight.
1T will be an everlasting mistake to un-
dertake to heat the school building with
furnaces. OF course, that system will be
cheaper than steam, but it will be a source
of regret if adopted. Cheap things are
not always the most economical.

Whale in the Canal,

The following account is given of the
Whale IN the canal last week near ST.
Georges: ''''
ms mammoth animal was caught
on cape Cod on June 5th, 1888. and
placed on board a scow 75x25 it.. mann
iacIured IN Bath, Maine. From there
IL was taken to Boston, Mass. where II
was embalmed by the Chemical En-
Dalmlng Company, of Boston. at a coet
oI S3OOO, thirty-ive barrels of embaIm-
ing nuld being consumed in this opera-
alIoh' Being now ready for exhibition
a start was made, when it was found
UhaC tAe scoW was too wide to enter a
number of locks in their nronoead
route, hence it was transferred tn a
barge at an immense cost, and the scow
was sold at a great sacrifice. Since
mat time 1t has been on exhibition in
SIX states, and witnessed bv a miIIion
people, who pronounce it the most
WONDERFUL curiosity on record. A few
cdys ago II entered the canal en- route
I0r Baltimore and Washington. When
ABOUT a mile above here the boat snrano
a leak, and in an attempt to move her
she was broken amidship. All attempts
TO raise the craft proved futile and
Sne S1,i now lies half covered in water.
Ihls ocean monster is sixty-five feet
long, and weighed when caught seven
ty'hVe tons. Its mouth is fitted nm az
d reception room with carpet and six
chairs: The jaws are ten feet long and
eight feet wide, and six feet in diam
eter. The tongue alone weighed $500
pounds and neary $500 worth of com
merclal bone was removed from its nm
per Jaw, while a quantity yet remains.
such a mountain of flesh was never be-
lore on exhibition, and the fact that If
Is gradually petrifying, and will in
years become a solid mass makes it one
OF the most valuable ofcuriosities. II
mas since been put on another barge.

The proposition to raise our Ministers
to England, France, Germany and Rus
sia to the rank of Ambassadors is a
thoroughly sensible one, and it is to be
hoped that it will have larger major
lty in the House than in the Senate.
There is no valid objection to the
change, aud there is the strong argu-
mument in its favor that it will serve to
give representatives in those countries
the dignity to which they are entitled.
No patriotic American would enjoy see
ing an American envoy uniformly pass
ed by in the anti-r0Om OF a Minister OF
Foreign Affairs abroad by the repre-
sentative Ofsome tuppeny State, sim
ply because the latter has the title of
Ambassador. This big country need
not swaggeer, but it should exhibit a
proper degree ofself-respect.

Keep Step Ever.

Would you gain the best in life?

Hold your place through troubles rife

Know the world is watching YOU;
BE sincere in all you do:
With the good, the pure and true.
Ever firm keep step.
Life is more than idle play;
It will quickly pass away;
Use Alright each golden day;
r, With the good keep step.
There are earnest, pressing needs.
Fllled alone by purest deeds;
Happy he the call who heeds-
With the true keep step.
Look beyond the present hour:
Never yield to Satan's power;
Though above the clouds NAV lower
With the truth keep step
onward press, nor, on the way,
Loiter once or waste the dav;

Strong in faith Keep step.

Judge Balls heroic method of deal

an excellent effect in Kidding Whining

LEGISLATURES ONCE MET IN SMYRNA

LEGISLATURE ONCE MET IN SMYRNA.
The present State House was origi-
nally the Kent County Court House.
and in the early days of the State
there are many interesting stories con-
nected with it. The State originally
was to pay portion of the cost of its
erection, but failed to do so. When
the General Assembly went to assem-
BILE there in 1897 they were met by
Sheriff Clayton, of Kent county, who
with sword in hand expelled them.
An adjournment was taken to Duck
Creek Cross Roads, now Smyrna.
Here the sessions were held for the re-
mainder of the year. An effort was
made to have Smyrna made the capi-
tai of the State, but il failed and the
next year the matter was fixed up
with the Kent County officials and the
sessions have been held in the present
building ever since.
The building in Smyrna where the
sessions were held is still standing and
Is now as then used as a hotel and is
now known as the Smyrna House.

Encouraging Indications.

While the life of our country ia
threatened by a score of such demor-
"llZihS influences as no other nation
ever encountered, there are encourage
ing elements at work among the fac
tors CT our civilization. The Character
OF the republic of the future will he
determined, not by the soldier. nor the
millionaire, nor the politician, but bv
the thinker. The world is to be ruled
hereafter, not by force, nor money. nor
policy, but by thought. A constantly
increasing proportion of the educated
ana thinking men of the country are
Christians. Archdeacon M'Kav Smith
IN Harper's Magazine for January
says: -
The colleges never had SO many
church members in them as at present.
\ ale College in 1895, had but four or
ilve students who were church mem
oers; TO day about one-half hold such
membership. Princeton in 1913 had
put Two or three openly protesting the
CHRISTIAN faith to-day about one-half
and among them the best scholars
In Williams College 147 out of 248. and
IN Amherst 233 out of 352, are mem.
bers of churches"
Other colleges would make a still
peter showing for the Christian faith.
IL Is not true that scholars are forsak-
ing Christ. A larger proportion of
men OF brain aud culture and broad
scholarship are cOnfessing and follow
ing Christ to-day than ever before
ana these shall lead the nation.

The protest of $4,000 intelligent citi-
zen of Utah against its admission as a

Is New Mexico, where no movement to-

than ten years, until it was recently
stimulated by underground wire from
the East.
