touched to the extent that eyes
were filed with tears-thus openly
showing to the contestants that the
seed sown had taken root. The
future will show whether it is last
ing or not. The contestants proved
themselves worthy of the work as
signed them inasmuch rs they did
credit to all their different pieces
The judges, Rev. DIR. Born, Rev
lands and II. j. Mitchell, were al
most unable to decide to whom the
medal belonged, as the constituents
so ably performed their parts, and
their manner of address, elocution,
gestures, etc, We're TO II great extent
nearly perfect and produced the
same good impression upon the au-
dience-several of them having tied.
1t resulted however in comforting
the honor upon Miss No. s, who was
greatly surprised upon receiving the
medal. We are sorry that not all
could get it-only one out of the
eight. The remarks by Rev. DR.,
Born upon the presentation of the
medal were very impressive and we
trust have made lasting impress
sion upon all present. Time and
space will not permit to enter into
detail, but will add that this was
one of the most successful and in.
structive entertainments yet held
in Adamsburg. A LISTENER

Mr.. PLEASANT MmLs.-Two of our
boss coon hunters, both armed with
guns and dog, were out for gen
ernl coon hunt one evening last week.
The dog struck II trail which they
thought was monster coon. They
tracked it for several miles across
the mountain, when they found it
perched on lofty tree. The senior
member of the party shot and killed
ii on the first shot. The junior
member picked it up and remarked,
"es is ovver en- grosser Yusht

coon hunter got hold of it he found
it to be a monster tom cat

AN OLD DEED AND 4 BROKEN
MIRROR.


Charles Eoll. OF Newark, \. j.,
broke his graudtather's mirror the
other day and out dropped q deed @0o
years old, 10y which certain Indians
gave Jacob Roll a clear title to land
along the Mohawk river for four
miles, and nine mics deep, begin
ming in Schenectady and including
all the village Of Amsterdam. Con-
seQuentlv he and OVER loo Roll heirs
have subscribed money to ret back
what they consider their property.
Chauncey NJ. Depew, whose opinion
on this matter was asked because
property of the New York Central
railroad is involved, says there IS
law in New York state under which
twenty years Undisturhed possession
give a clear title, and, therefore, he
does not think the Roll heirs will
make much out Of the discovery. Why,
it may be asked, should they, hy the
discovery OF an old parchment, he ell
titled to dspOssess hundreds or thOus-
ands Of small landowners or house
holders in the village OF Amsterdam,
who have paid for their places! Ii an
ancestor of theirs bought wild land Of
wild Indians for trihe, what justice

siters, Statemeyers. ManninTS and

American civilization has put upon

There are special silk fabrics for races, show

with very severe penalties. The former the
cadets seldom if ever attempt to carry into their
rooms externally, but tobacco frequently finds
hiding place within easy reach, and there are
many infractions of this rule. The occupants of
a room find it exceedingly difficult to conceal
any of the latter in place free from the danger
of detection. Many eXpedents are tried.
There are very few books allowed in the quarters,
but in one case about two years since a cadet
made very novel use of a large Bible sent to
him from home. By the aid of a sharp knife
from its middle square cavity was followed
out large enough to contain supply of both
chewing and smoking tobacco. The cOnsola-
ton derived from the book, and the frequency
with which reference was afterward made
thereto, would probably have satisfied the most
devout of grandmothers
For communication with one another during
study hours, at night or during the day. the
cadets formerly made use of a code of signals
similar to the Morse alphabet, conductor for
which was found in the steampipes used in
heating the barracks This, however, was soon
detected and stopped.
Occasionally few of them will openly rebel
against authority by such acts as rolling can
non balls and grapeshot along the corridors,
or by firing fre-crackers in the building. In
cases of this kind inspections are Immediately
taken, and if the offender is caught severe pun
ishment is awarded him. If such outbreaks
occur after taps at night the whole number
of students are liable to receive orders to turn
out Immediately for formation, where they are
kept until the guilty party owns up, or until
the authorities consider lesson of sufficient
severity has been administered.
When the cadets fall out among themselves,
as is natural they occasionally should, the re-
sort is usually to a test of superiority with bare
fists. Seconds are chosen, and if it is an off
night all in the secret repair to the rear of the
gas works, where, with pickets posted to keep
lookout for the guards, and ring of men
around them, the disputants hammer each other
until their honor has been mutually vindicated.
In the summer months, when discipline is com
paratively lax, such encounters are of frequent
occurrence, and several such may occur in one
evening.
Other violations than those mentioned may
and do occur, but they are none of them calcu-
lated in the least to overthrow or cast discredit
upon the system of authority governing the in
stituton The entire course OF training in the
Academy tends to the formation of men of the
highest order of physical and intellectual ex-
cellence, and more manly, straightforward set
of boys than the naval cadets it would be hard
to find. OIL Y.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
OR OLD PEOPLE
Their Feed.

Their Feed.
We find from DR. Humphreys Report that
80 per cent Of aged persons are either
moderate" or small eaters, and such
moderation is quite in accord with the
teachings Of physiology. In old age the
changes in the bodily tissues gradually be-
come less and less active, and less food is
required to make up for the daily waste.
The appetite and the power Of digestion
are correspondingly diminished, and al
though for the attainment Of great age
considerable amount of digestive power is
absolutely necessary its perfection, when
exercised upon proper articles Of diet, is
the most important characteristic. lndul-
gence in the pleasures of the table is one of
the common errors of advanced life, and is
not infrequent in persons who, up to that
time, were moderate or even small eaters.
Hence arise many of the evils and troubles
of old age, and notably indigestion ard
equity symptoms in various forms, besides
mental discomfort No hard and fast rules
can be laid down, but strict moderation
should be the guiding maxim. The diet
suitable for most aged persons is that which
contains much nutritve material in a small
bulk, and its quantity should be in proper
tion to the appetite and power Of digestion
Animal food, well cooked, should be taken
sparingly and not more than twice day,
except under special circumstances DR..
Parker advocates rice as a partial substi
tute for meat when the latter is found to
disagree with old persons Its starch
grains are very digestible and it supplies
nitrogen in moderate amount, well fitted to
the worn and slowly repaired tissues of the
aged" Its bulk, however, is sometimes a
disadvantage in small quantities it is a
valuable addition to milk and to stewed
fruits
The amount of food taken should be di-
vided between three or four meals, at fair.
ly regular intervals. sense of fullness
or oppression after eating ought not to be
disregarded 1t indicates that the food
taken has been either too abundant or of
improper quality For many elderly peo.
pie the most suitable time for the principal
meal is between and P NJ As the day
advances the digestive powers become less
and even a moderately substantial meal
taken in the evening may seriously overtask
them. Undigested food is potent cause
Of disturbed sleep, an evil often very
troublesome to old people, and one which
ought to be carefully guarded against.
