The Heart of The Alleghanies

Writing of recent trip across the
mountains of West Virginia, a gifted
journalist says:
Twilight on the grade is grand. The
mountain SUBMITS look like the bushy
tops of trees. The sun has disappeared
in ball of fire at his jumping off
place." but the vivid lightning of the
western sky by the still upturned H.
luming face below the hOrisOn is in
marked contrast to the gathering
shades behind the rushing train. From
shelf to shelf, from crag to crag, from
brink to brink, we almost fly. Like a
flashing transformation, rendering
almost past belief the fact that the
scene is in the midst of the Allegha-
nies, comes a bit of landscape garden
ing with all the beauties of walks and
hedges and bright hued flowers, a
mountain brOOklet tumbling through
the centre-BuckhOrn Wall, the most
noted and most admired view that can
be had from any known point in the
Allegheny range. To enable the road
to span the tremendous gorges, a mas
siVe wall of cut stone was erected for a
distance of several hundred feet, and
more than one hundred feet above the
foundation rock. AS the river makes
an abrupt turn at right angles, deeI
canyon is opened up for miles. Range
after range of mountains disappear be.
hind each other. The shadOwy out
lines of single peaks steal out through
! the haze"
This beautiful scene is on the Balti
more and Ohio r. r. near Grafton, w
Va. The entire line from the Poto
mac to the Ohio is majestic panora
ma of the grandest views ON the con
tinent and all endowed with historic
! interest,

March of Progress.

The beautiful and spacious quarters
for A. Z. Yates q Co., at the southeast
corner of Thirteenth and Chestnut
streets, which were formally opened
on Saturday last, attracted general at
tentiOn by its bright and cheerful ap-
pearance. Increasing trade in mems
clothing caused the removal from No.
1910 Chestnut Street. Besides their
large store in the Ledger Building at
Sixth and Chestnut Streets, the firm
now occupy this entire building, four
stories in height, having a frontage on
Chestnut street of thirty-seven feet,
and a depth on Thirteenth street of
I0S feet. Abundant light has been
secured by the many windows on the
three sides.
An electric plant has been intro
duced. so that, besides the numerous
means for light by gas, there will be
ample electric illumination. Also an
elevator, by which the four floors can
be easily reached without incurring
fatigue in ascending. The interior has
been attractively finished and fur
nished, the walls having been painted
in delicate and subdued cOlors. Every
thing suggests elegance, comfort and
convenience.
Considerable change was made to
the first floor in adapting it to the re-
quirements of Yates & Co.'S business.
The entrance at the corner of Thir-
teenth and Chestnut streets has been
closed up. and the door is now to the
western side of the Chestnut street
front.
The second floor has been reserved
for spring and summer outfits, the
third for black goods, and the fourth
for general stock.

Periodicals..

General Wesley Merritt, U. S. A,
will contribute to the April number of
HGcper's Magazine an article entitled
"Three Indian Campaigns" accompa.
MED with maps and illustrated from
drawings by Il. F. Zogbaum. The ar
ticle gives memorable incidents illus
trating the different phases of Indian
warfare in the West. The campaigns
referred to are those against the Chey-
enne, Apache, and Ute Indians. Gen
eral Merritt quotes and confirm the
portion of a report by General Sheri-
dan, declaring that it would have been
actually less expensive for our gov.
ernment if an army of 10000 or TO-
600 had been maintained for the pros
ecutiOn of these Indian wars; land,
moreover, the blood of gallant officers,
soldiers, and citizens would not have
rested on our hands,"

Resignation of Bismark.

The eyes of nations are now attrac-
ted to the Old World to see what will
be the outcome of the resignation of
Bismarck, the Grand Premier of the
King of Prussia and Emperor of Ger
many. The iron prince has been a
power in Europe for the last thirty
years. He has moulded governments
and controlled them with a strong will,
and he has created mighty Empire
out of the scattered German provinces
of the realm. No man of the age has
more delibly stamped the impress of
his power upon the world than Bis
marck. He has sOlifed Germany,
but antagOnized France in tho West,
and Russia in the East. Europe is an
armed camp, ready for battle at the
first signal gun.
What will be the results ? Modern
ideas of government have progressed
to such an extent that it looks now as
if monarchy would receive a fatal blow
in the contest. The masses are gain
ing confidence in themselves, and are
demanding republics instead of mon
arches, and it is not improbable that
before the disarmament of the nations
takes place, the fatal blow may be
struck that will raise the flag of a re-
public where now hes the imperial
flag of HohenzOllern.

The Next Census.

The taking of the next census Of the
population, wealth and industry of tho
United States will begin on Monday.
June2d, and will be closed SO far as t6e
! process of enumeration is concerned
"ithin 10 days IN cities and towns and
WITHIN ~ days in rural communities.
The country has been divided into
TO districts, for each of which a su.
pervisor has been appointed, who in
turn has subdivided his district into
sections, each of which contains. as
nearly as possible, 1000 inhabitants.
according to the figures of the last
census. For each OF these an enumer-
ator Is appointed, and there will prob-
ably be 10000 of these assigned TO as
many subdivisions.
The first census of the United
States, taken in 1890, is contained in a
volume OF 52 pages, and its cost was
! only $25 900. Congress has appropri-
ated Sc, 100000 for the expense of tax
ing this census, exclusive of the coat
! OF printing. The total population
enumerated 100 years ago hv not very
exact methods was something less
Ihan 4,OOO,OOO. The tenth census of
the United States, taken in 1880.
showed population of over sc, 900, 900.
IL has been estimated by competent
authority that the present enumera-
tion would indicate a gain of some-
thing more than $1,000, 900 within the
last ten years.
The work by the enumerator is bv
no means an easy one, and anv one
who has undertaken it under the i'm.
preston that he will have an easv
time next June, will find that he has
been mistaken. Many men ten years
ago committed this error and were 40
! appalled, when they received their
books OF instruction that 5000 of them
resigned. Under the present law any
enumerator who has accepted an ap-
pointment is compelled to finish his
work, and If he refuses 30 to do with
out giving reason satisfactory to the
superintendent he may be fined and
| imprisoned
Inc enumeratOr as Il rule comes into
direct contact with only about one in
seven of the population. He carries
with him schedules of population of
| agriculture, of manufacture. of NOR
tality and vital statistics, and sched-
ules relating to the deaf, blind, the
| insane and criminal. At the close of
every days labor he must, as has been
said, report by postal card to the su-
pervisor and to Superintendent Por-
ter. He will meet with many curious
experiences, and his most useful fac
ulty will be tact. Every citizen is
compelled to answer his question or
pay fine of $780, An Improvement
this year over the former methods of
taking the census has been the distri-
button, in advance, of several millions
of family schedules, so that the emu.
merator at many points will find it
already filled out, and so will be
greatly facilitated in his work.
1t is curious fact as shown bv the
last census, and in fact by all, that
while there are perhaps, 1,5OO,O 900
women of the age Of 90 or 80, or 49,
there will only be about 10000 of the
age of 80 or 40 or 80. The inference
irresistible; they do not like to ac-
knowledge having turned the corner
of a decade. 1t would of course be
unreasonable to presume that once in
every ten years there is such an
alarming decrease in the birth of girl
babies.-CecI Democrat.

The Time For Robins.

"Seen any robbins yet ?" he inquir-
ed as they met in the corridor of the
post Office.
The other looked at him with iniur-
ed dignity for half a minute and then
beckOned him out of the crowd and
said:
"What about robins ~
"Wby, rObbins-birds."
"Yes, know that there is a bird
called q robin. What of it ?"
II asked if you had seen any this
spring"
"Suppose ] had"
"Why, nothing, only robins come in
the spring.
"Yes, / believe they do. Did you
want them to wait and come in the
fall?"
"Well, IL"
''See hers, my friend" said the
other as he laid hand on his shoul-
der, let all birds alone, robins included.
They are all right Let spring alone.
1t Is all right. Just keen right on ct
tending to your own business and let
other things attend tO theirs. Good
! day sir!'--DetrOit Free ESess.

Epicopal Church Becoming
Evangelized.

The religious features in New York
recently were the MONDAY ser
mons of Phillips Brooks in old Trinity
and the Bible talks of D. L. Moody in
the Collegiate Church. Doubtless the
Fame of these to great religious lead
ers would have attracted many to hear
them in any case. But the popularity
of these men does not explain the rapt
attention, the eager interest and the
restrained enthusiasm of the great
crowds who went to hear them. The
fact is-and it cannot be ignOred-there
is in the community to-day profound
interest that IS far from being confined
to protesting church members. 1t is felt
even by those who do not believe the
formal dOgmas of christianity, and
shows itself in a multitude of ways.
Books on religious questions that have
any meat in them find ready sale
The magazines and reviews are con-
stantly printing articles on religious
topics, the editors knowing that such
articles are eagerly read and widely
discussed. And no Influential news
paper nowadays can afford to ignore
the religious news of the day and the
many questions and problems that now
confront the churches. There is in
deed some truth in the assertion sc
frequently made, that large number:
of intelligent men and women have
ceased to be churchgoers. But even
the nOn-churchgOers of to-day have
not lost their interest in fundamental
religion. IfyOu talk with any one oi
them you will 6nd that they distin.
guish sharply between religion and
ecclesiasticism. Aud it is because they
believe, whether rightly or wrongly,
that ecclesiasticism is opposed TO true
religion that they have lost their inter
est in it. And just here l would drOT
this hint to the churches The more
they make it possible for men to satisfy
their religious aspiFaDts outside the
churches the worse it will be for organ
ized Christianity. .ANeiO York Tribune
