A Novel Enterprise.

1t is nothing unusual for newspa-
pers TO print very full reports of ex
traordinary events, but they seldom
publish elegant books. The Harris
burg, Pa, Telegram, however, has
in preparation an elaborate history
of the great disaster at Johnstown,
to appear shortly in sumptuous
volume. The work will be written
by the editor of the paper, from
personal knowledge and thorough
acquaintance with the subject and
the district. 1t will embody various
features necessarily omitted by ear
lier publications and be the only ac-
curate description of the terrible
calamity that destroyed thousands
of human lives. Many portraits and
views, engraved by the most emi-
nent artists from original drawings
and photographs, will be a special
feature. Nothing will be spared tc
ensure the highest literary and ar,
tistic elegance. Then the net pro
ceeds from the sales Of the worklwil
be applied for the benefit of the
Printers, Orphan Children and AGED
Men and Women who suffered b,
the flood We heartily commend
the project to the public, aud be
speak an immense demand for th'
book. 1t will be well for local can
vassers to secure an agency at once
as the book will be sold by subscrip
ton.

The Ocean Depths.

The greatest known depth of the
sea is in the South Atlantic Ocean,
midway between the island of Iris
tan d'Acunha and the mouth of the
Rio de la Plata. The bottom was
there reached at depth of 1926
feet, or eight and three-quarter
miles, exceeding by more than H.
600 feet the height of Mount Everest,
the loftiest mountain i'll the world.
In the North Atlantic Ocean, south
Of Newfoundland, soundings have
been made to n depth of 1850 faith
oms, or 1880 feet, while depths,
equalling 1000 feet, or six and n
half miles, are reported south of the
Bermuda islands. The average
depth of the Pacific Ocean between
Japan and California is little over
9, 600 fathoms between Chill and
the Sandwich Islands, 500 fathoms
and between Chila and New Zeal
and, 1900 fathoms. The average
depth of all the oceans is from 1900
to $500 fathoms.

The First M. Z. Church was crowded last
night to hear the address OF the Rev.
Vaughn 8. Collins OF Wilmington, Del,
by the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion of st. Sohn's College. The speaker
begun by saying after finding himself 10 a
christian church and before q christian
congregation, be did not know whether
he should deliver lecture 10 the Young
Mems Christian Association or preach q
sermon. His subject viewer,
would be the Work of the Y M. 9. A.
Ia College" His text was from the Book
OF Proverbs, 18th chapter, 2Sth verse
Behold, the. fear of the Lord, that Is
wisdom; and to depart from evil Is under
standing. His theme was based on
.'One Sided Education" and what col
leges should furnish 1. Physical edu.
cation; 2. Mental education; 8 Spiritual
education. He showed how far q man
could be educated Ia these and what
great powers for good and evil they be-
come, and in order 10 keep them on the
right track 1t required spiritual training.
The Rcriptural training. be said, is the
highest Of education. rSeek We first the
kingdom of God and His righteousness
