Its makers believe in the

REGENT advices from SoEora are to the effect that the coal measures of that state are much larger than was at first anticipated. In several places the finest classes of anthracite coal have been un- covered and the belief is perevelent that grea ger depth will give evidence of lar ger bodies of coal than have heretofore been known to exist. The company now engaged in exploiting the fields have a diamond Grill in place and important re- suits may Oe looked for soon. If half the expectations indulged in are realized the business of the entire Pacific coast will be revolutionized and manufactures will spring up all over the country where such things are now impossible on account of the scarcity and high price of fuel.

In the pioneer days of the country the Methodist circuit rider followed close on the pioneers ax. But it is different in our time. The railroad is the pioneer of civilization. Wherever it goes, the set tier follows its t-.Ick. There are towns and facilities for travel before churches are built. Neither do the pioneers meet for worship at one another's private houses. The meetings at the private houses of settlers are now usually of very different character. Aware that the railroad precedes the church in the new order of civilization, Bishop Walker. of North Dakota, has had special car con- structed in which he may travel from one part of his district to another.

Responsibilities of Rich Men.

Notable in our day IS the drift of pub lie sentiment in regard to rich men. It
 is clear sign of the time that when elan has great wealth and uses no part
 . it to benefit the public, he comes to be looked upon with general dislike. There is in the community a just sense of wrong, an instinct that he is defrauding his fel- low man. if he keeps the favors that for tune has heaped upon him all to himself, or selfishly hoards his weath. Men who have vast wealth must do something for their fellow men, is the verdict of so- ciety. There may be hundred men, all equally industrious and energetic, yet only one born with the money getting faculty.
 This is a curious change from the sen timent of former times, when all belong ed to a man that he could get, and it was nobody's business what he did with it. The change is evidence of the increasing belief that no man can or ought to be happy xhile his fellow men are suffering or in want. It is a step towards that human brotherhood which is the basis of the ideal civilization.
 Rich men themselves begin to under stand this too, and to feel what is due from them to the community. They leave sums of money to educational or benev Oient enterprises at their death, and some of them have sense enough to spend the money for the public during their lives One of these is Andrew Carnegie. The gift he offers to Pitts5urS of free libra " and scientific school is princely. The =hole sum he gives. it is said. will mount to S2.000.0CO.

II. Albert Nodon, of Paris, has per formed most interesting and success tul experiment. He subjected insulated conductors to the suns rays between it's rising and setting. The conductor was of metal or carbon. He found that the rays communicated to the conductor a positive electric charge, which increased with increased heat and light of the sun. The amount was greatest at p. m. But clouds about the sun take away the cleo tricity. Thus it appeared that the sun is also the source of electricity as we'll as of heat and light.
