they say it is actually cheaper to let
it burn continuously than to buy
matches to light it every evening. In
CRATES and stoves it makes gentle
blaze or roaring fire just as you want
it-all by the simple turn of a valve.
1t is inoffensive, convenient, cheap.
1t makes no smoke or dust. Indeed,
in one CRATE we were shown fire that
had been burning continuously for a
month, and the whitewashed back of
the fireplace was not even discolored.
Natural gas is a great thing, and we
wish Shepherdstown was provided
with it.
At the University we heard good re-
ports of the students from this sec

Mr.. f. III. Vickers, a Jefferson county
boy, who we learned is doing good
work there.
Returning to Fairmont we met
Judge Fleming, who was up to his
ears in work relating to the guberna-
torial contest. He was pushing his
cases with vigor and intelligence
that are assurances that when he
takes his seat as Governor he will
make an energetic and business-like
executive.
The Fairmont Normal School, of
which Prof. G. A. Sipe is principal, is
an institution that deserves more
than a passing notice. With an en-
rollment of about 300 pupils, nearly
all of whom are young ladies and gen
tlemen engaged in advanced branches
of learning, well disciplined and ad-
mirably managed-this institution is

A good many people have not heard
of the way in which tribe of monkeys
prepare to rob corniield. Let US de-
scribe il, says writer in P0putdr
Science Monthly. When they get ready
to start on their expedition an old
monkey, the leader of the tribe, with n
staff in his hand, SO as to stand up
right more easily, marches ahead on
two legs, thus being moro elevated
than the other, so as to see signs of
danger more readily. The rest follow
him on all-fours. The leader advances
slowly and cautiously. carefully re-
connoitering in all directions, till the
party arrives at the cornfeld. He
then assigns the sentinels to their re-
spective posts. All being now in
readiness, the rest Of the tribe ravage
and eat to their hearts content When
they retire each one carries two or
three ears of corn along, and from
this provision the sentinels are RECALLED
on arrival at their lair.
Here we see ability to rule and a
willingness to submit to rule; a thought
full preparation of means to the end in
view. and recognition of the sentinels
to be suitably rewarded at the close of
the expedition. Wherein does all this
differ from similar foray of tribe of

that really exists is in degree, other

Our Boys.

Investigation shows that American boys
seem to be attracted to only two trades the
printers and the machinists. Other me-
chanical work is mostly done by foreigners
who make good wages and slowly accu-
mulate moderate competence. but have no
prospect of rising above their present bust
ness. The routine work is the same day
after day. and does not suit the more rest
less of Americans, who are hopeful and
ambitious and not satisfied with small
things. but wish to go from ObScurity and
poverty to fame and wealth at a single
hound. and do not know how to get enjoy
ment out of life as they go along. Ameri-
can boys do not fancy working for others all
their lives. and when they choose trade;
look forward for the time when they will
become partners or proprietOrs and employ
instead of serve. In the trade of the printer
there is room for promotion. and the con-
slant and necessary knowledge of the
worlds work brightens and develops even
dull boy. while in machine shop, there is
field for that ingenuity and inventive
genius for which Americans are famous.
And yet in neither of these callings is there
possibility of that independence which is

DeSerters To BE PardOned.

1t is probable that the president will issue

Senator Plumb has urged this action Oh him

army alone have deserted. and only about
5000 of these have been captured. The
