A NEW INDUSTRY IN MICHIGAN.

One who travels much, with OBJ
servant eyes, may find many curious
ways of making money; but one of
the most curious is a skunkery at
Homer, Mich. There are five
hundred of these little animals IN an
Enclosure of which the surface is
covered with cement and fitted with
drain tiles, into which they go for
short maps in summer and a long
sleep in winter. Their furs are worth
from four to eight dollars per Pelt,
and their flesh yields great deal OF
oil for medicinal purposes. Their
owner knows their habits, and IS
able to escape the danger of disagree
able experiences which prompt peo-
pie generally to give them a wide
berth. From some of the young
ones the sacs are removed which
contain their one offensive and
defensive weapon, and they become
harmless and interesting pets. 1t
costs little to keep them, and in
winter, when they hibernate, almost
| nothing. The business is said to be
quite profitable, and is likely to in
crease Perhaps it will lead to good
results in more ways than one; for
if the skunks should all get penned
up, the hens nests would be safer

ART IN THE WHITE MEETING
HOUSE.

President Buckham of the Univer
sity of Vermont has taken occasion
to express the opinion that our
Puritan fathers were not so destitute
of the artistic faculty as some sup
pose, and he stands up for the old
meeting house as proof of this. He
closed with the following allusion to
what Frederick Billings is doing in
his native town: Il commend to
architects of country churches the
attempt now being made by noble
son of Vermont to construct with
finest art, but with fidelity to the
original idea, the meeting house of
the country village in which he re-
sides, and l should not wonder if
hereafter artists and lovers of the
beautiful should make pilgrimages to
Woodstock to see how beautiful
an old New England Westinghouse
can bemade. | venture the assertion
that the typical white Westinghouse
standing on the hill top, its splre in
sight of almost every farm in town,
constant reminder of Gods presence
in daily life, deserves to be ranked as
as true artistic conception, fitting
embodiment of the simple piety of
which it was born. Gothic architec-
ture belongs to a ceremonial religion
and needs a civic environment.
Romanesque architecture is the
tribute to Christianity ofan advanced
and luxurious civilization. l submit
that Gothic or Romanesque church
for the Congregational form of wor-
ship in rural community is strik-
ing incongruity, whereas the meet
ing-house of the old type is a natural
and pathetic expression of the old
fashioned piety out of which it

VERMONT NEWS.
State Militia of Vermont.

The report of Lieut.. Leary of the
4th United States cavalry concerning
the condition of the Vermont state
militia as he saw them at their annu-
al encampment, has been given tothe
secretary of war and speaks in the
highest terms of the troops. Lieut..
Learv found the routine OF duty,
which had been arranged for the
camp, was such as to make the best
of the brief time given for practice,
and the Improvement from day to
dav was clear, but he finds the time
is too short for the best results and
advises that the time of the encamp-
ment be extended to two weeks. The
troops were dressed in servlceable
and fairly well fitting uniforms, some
of which were new and also had new
overcoats. Considerable progress in
target practice was noted as result
of previous recommendations, but III
the ordinary movements the compa-
nies were only fairly proficient and
had not improved since a year ago.
This is due to the many unlnstructed
men taken just before the opening of
the encampment. Lieut.. Leary COM
plimented Fuller's battery of Brattle-
boro, which he found had made much
progress during the year. Attention
to the matter of salutes from 1nferl-
ors had been much quickened. The
tent equipment was in good order,
and the field hospital and other sanl-
tary arrangements were the best he
had ever seen In his recommends
tons Lieut.. Leary advises that the
Legislature appropriate $4,000 for
permanent buildings and other equip
ments on the new camp-ground. The
whole force of the militia can be CEN
tralized within - hours.
The Congregational church at
Hinesburg has just completed its

thirty newspaper men who were IN
Johnstown, but two, it is stated, es-
capped without serious illness. Three
have since died from the effects OF the
work done there.
Jennings Crute was the first man
from Philadelphia to reach the place
His reports of its condition were
masterpieces of description-v1v1d,
simple, terse, without word OF at
tempted fine writing. The powerful
black strokes of his pictures were
drawn in the presence of death itself,
fora waiting people, dumb with hor-
ror, to look upon.
The exposure, the severe work and
the malignant poison of the air were
too much for his strength; but he
would not give up. One reporter at
ter another was ordered home on
furlough, i'll but Crute remained.
81 knew l had my death blow" he
said afterwards; but there was so
much to do therel"
After his return home he had brief
rest, and rallied, going back to work.
He was assigned to report an en-
campment at Mt. Gertner; and, with
the hand of death upon him, rose be-
fore day to march with the troops
instead of following leisurely with
the other reporters, because he knew
that he could describe more accurate
" the thing which he had actually
seen.
He was brought home to die; but
in the weeks which passed before the
end, be fought death inch by inch,
planning with indomitable energy
work for the future. Even when
he was actually dying he made his
nurses dress him and wheel him into
the sunshine, ITO gain strength so
that he could go to the office next
week"
The weak, girIish-looking body is
| -
at work somewhere, eager, strong,
hopeful with the Chief whom he
trusted and served so faithfully here
The ambition of this man and OF
his class may seem petty to you-tC
get the first news for his paper, TIC
tell it to the world in strong, exact
words-anonymou too; for the
reporter has no name nor credit.
The favorite heroes of the world
are still the gallant crusader or the
soldier; yet to my commonplace
modern mind this weak lad, who
never spared himself, who was zeal
Gus and faithful unto death to the
obscure work to which he haC
pledged himself, is the hero we neeC
today.
There was room, too, in that oh
scure work for great triumphs. HI
closed the doors into which, as open
ines to hell, thousands of children
had been lured to the ruin of bod,
and soul; and he gave his life at las
in the work of bringing help to Johns
town.
There are thousands of other am
bilious lads, poor, friendless anC
alone in our cities. It seems to m
that the story of this dead DO,
should come to them with no uncer
tain meaning.
1t seems to me, too, that it is tim
