When Queen Annes war broke out the French

eolated settlements Of Maine. The country

defence they had consisted in blockhouses, built
mainly as places Of refuge during Indian attacks.
These rude forts were simply palisaded enclosures.
with wooden towers or "fiankcrs" at the four
corners Within the enclosure were one or more
houses. and here, upon an alarm, the people Of
he neighborhood assembled. Mr. Parkman has
some impressive descriptions of the French and
Indian raids in Maine. The outrages committed
were bad enough, but in one respect less horri-
bic than those Of the Plains Indians and the
Apacbcs in our own time. For the French did

their fate was grim enough. Arrived in Can

case of the Rev. John Williams, given in the

this very clearly.
The reverend gentleman, his wife and
large family were captured and taken to Mon

Then the children were taken away from the

The swing, so lear to children. can
be traced back to the festivals which
took place in Pagan days in honor OF
Bacchus, when little figures were hung
on trees, and were supposed TO bring
blessings on the ground as they swayed
to and fro rocked by the wind. The
reason of this custom is explained by
the fable of Icarius receiving Bacchus
in Attica, and the god was so grateful
to him that he taught him the art of
making wine. Icarius then rave some
of the wine to his peasants, and, as they
became intoxicated, their friends, think
ing that Icarius had poisoned them.
killed him in their fury. Icarius' daugh-
ter, Erigone, went in search of 1carius,
and his body was found by means of his
faithful dog Moera, who kept watch
over the spot where the body was
buried. Erigone in her despair hanged
herself on a tree, and was changed into
the constellation Virgo. 1carius was
changed into the star Bootes, and the
dog into the star CAMS. Yankee Blade.

AN AssertlOr That IL was Not Unanimous

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Dec. 9.-The
strike Of telegraphers on the Chicago,

inauguratcd yesterday with the unan-
unity and force which Chief Ramsey exc
pected when he SEN the telegram or
dering the men out Wednesday night.
The strike order was effective at 10
o'clock yesterday morning, but reports
indicate that 1t fell far short of general
observance, even among the members
of the Order Of Railway T~elegraphers
which is strong on the entire system.
On the lines from the Missouri river to
Denver a small per cent. of men left their
eys and in many instances their places
were promptly filled, the company hav-

within reach. On the Iowa divisions
the order was more generally observed.
The company declares that it has suf-

Do You Wish
the Finest Bread
and Cake?

1t is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder is
the purest and strongest Of all the baking powders.
The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweet.
est, most delicious food. The strongest baking pow
der makes the lightest food.
That baking powder which is both purest and
strongest makes the most d~igestible and wholesome
food.
Why should not every housekeeper avail herself
of the baking powder which will give her the best
food with the least trouble?
Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift
or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal,
as they invariably contain alum, lime or sui
phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.
Certain protection from alum baking powders can
be had by declining to accept any substitute for the
Royal, which is absolutely pure.

Third Popular Excursion to the National
Capital via. Il. d D. X. X.

ington, via. b. & o. R. H., from Pitts
burg, Wheeling, Parkersburg, Lexing-
ton and intermediate stations to Wash
ington Junction, Nd, is announced for
Thursday, February 18th. The popu-
larity OF these winter trips to the
National Capital via. B. & o., is due to
the exceedingly low rates, the excellence
OF the train service, with Pullman ac-
commodations, and to the fact that the
B. & o. is the shortest route
The journey is delightful as well as
instructive, while in Washington are
more interesting sights than in any
other American city. The museums,
the art galleries, the White House, the
public buildings-to all of which admis-
sion is free-are attractions at all times
appreciated.
Tickets from Pittsburg, Wheeling,
and intermediate points TO Martins
burg are valid to Baltimore, and as
they are good for ten days ample time
is afforded for side trips to Mt. Vernon,
Old Point Comfort, and other adjacent
points.
Trains leave Wheeling at 6:10 a. m,
and $40 p. m, and for these two trains
only will tickets be sold. Pullman Sleep
| ing cars On evening train.

Manual Training.


To the Editor of the Register:
SIR:-During the past few months
very little has been said about the i'm
portance OF introducing manual train
ing in our schools. II all could only
consider the matter in the same light,
we might be able to push the project
through.
The reason for my suggesting that it
be introduced in the schools at this
time Is to get the new art in working
order by the time the High School will
be opened, and then Wheeling can boast
of having both. But il we wait until
the High School is completed and all
settled comfortably, we will have a
long wait and many will have left the
school without ever getting a chance at
this excellent feature.
Those who have never been in a
school where manual training is taught
do not really know how successful 1t has
been. Some time ago l happened to
visit one Of 0hio's flourishing towns,
and while there paid the school visit
and got an excellent chance to see how
the manual training department was
conducted.
l was very much astonished to see
what an interest each scholar took in
his respective work. First the little
ones, then on up until at last the older
scholars were at work on various arti-
cles which would have done credit to
one we'll skilled in that particular class
of work l asked the instructor IL the
scholars were assigned certain kinds OF
work. He said they generally chose
their own work on entering the school,
but il they did not show any inclination
toward anything they were assigned
the work.
1t is only great patience and perse-
verance on the part OF the various
teachers in charge that such kind OF
work is success when connected with
education. II all would join together
and say educate the hand as well as
the mind" | think before '92 expires
we would find manual training working
to perfection in every department OF
our public schools.
