How Can a Watch Give the Points of the
Compass When the Sun Shines.

The earth revolves beneath the sun from
west to east i'm "a hours, "a circuit of 360o-l5o
an hour, giving the sun an apparent motion in
the opposite direction of $50 an hour. The
circle of the watch is divided INTO IL equal
parts or hour divisions of 800 each. We may
say the hour hand moves 300 while the sun
moves Is degrees, or two circles to the suns
one.
Now suppose it noon at your place, the sun
is south there, and if your watch is giving cor
rect local time mot 18th meridian time, unless
you live on that line,) if your watch be held
level and the hour hand directed to IL point ex-
actly beneath the sun the hour hand will lie
north and south, or in your meridian. AT one
o'clock the hour hand will have moved 30
degrees, and the sun $50. Hence il the watch
be held level and the hour hand be now held to
n point beneath the sun, the line of half past
IL or 15o degrees back, will be the north and
south line, the line where the sun an
hour before. At 2 L. NJ. the line of one o'clock
will be the true north and south line At q 7.
NJ. the o'clock hour line, or half way back to
IL, will give the true meridian. In hours the
sun will have made right angle or 300.
Note.-Alowance must also be made for the
suns fast and SLOW" as found in the almil-
nae for every day in the year.

HON. MURRAY HANDIVER FOR
COLLECTOR OFREVENTE.

Hon. Murray Vandiver, of Hartford
county, was appointed by President
Cleveland, on Thursday, to be Col
lector of Internal Revenue for Mary
land and Delaware. This appoint
ment, it is understood, is a compro-
mise which is acceptable to the con-
gressional delegation, but it upsets
many previous calculations and we'll
laid plans. He had the active sup
port of Senator German.
Mr.. Vandiver was announced as a
candidate fer denomination to the
House of Delegates, but in card in
this weeks Agis he notifies voters of
his withdrawal from the field. His
acceptance of the collectorship will
give better chance for nomination
to the remaining candidates for the
same position.
Mr.. Vandiver is well known through
out the State. He is AZ years of age
ana is son of the late Robert r. Van
diver, of Havre de Grace, a sterling
Democrat and an influential citizen
of Hartford county. He has been Sec
rotary of the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee for many years and
has performed his duties with untir-
ing energy, zeal and fidelity. He re-
presented Hartford county with
credit in the Legislatures of 1875, 1877,
1879 and 1892. He was made Speaker
in 1892, position for which he was
admirably qualified by his complete
knowledge of parliamentary law. His
dignified discharge of duty as Speaker
and his strict impartiality gained for
him the respect of the entire body.

AN EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS

Tariff reform and the financial prob
lem are the two subjects now of
greatest Importance to the people of
the United States. Both demand the
most careful consideration and treat
ment, and upon the action oil Con-
gress will largely depend the future
of the Democratic party The party
is committed, by decisive vote of
the people, to reform in both these
particulars, and it is a cause for con-
graduation that there is at the head
OF affairs man who has shown that
he can rise above personal and even
party considerations when the well
fare of the country is involved. The
people have not lost their confidence
in Grover Cleveland and a majority of
them will be likely to conclude that
what he may advise will be the best
thing to be done under the circum-
stances. The financial condition of
the country, under the working of
the silver law, has created feeling of
uneasiness and distrust which is de-
pressing to business. In order to allay
this feeling and to restore confidence
President Cleveland has decided to
call Congress together at some date be-
tween the first and the fifteenth of
next September, to consider, especial
ly, the financial situation and provide
a remedy. The following statement
from President Cleveland on this sub
ject was made to a reporter of the
United Press, on Monday:
"While there has been no mystery nor secre-
ey In regard to my intention in this matter
think 1t not amiss that our people should
be informed authoritatively that the time is at
hand when the Representatives in Congress
Will be called upon to deal with q financial
condition which is the only menace to the
eountry's welfare and prosperity.
III Is well for the people to take up the
subject for themselves and arrive at their
own conclusions as to the merits of financial
policy which obliges us to purchase idle sill
yer bullion with gold taken from our reserve
One does not need the eye of a financier to
see that this gold thus subtracted from the
governments stock is eagerly seized by other
nations for the purpose Of strengthening
their credit at our expense
Ut does not need the art of craftsmanship
to detect the danger that awaits upon the
continuance of this operation. Already the
timidity OF capital is painfully apparent, and
none OF us can fail to see that fear and appre-
hension In monetary matters will ultimately
bring suffering to every humble home in our
land.
81 think that between now and the meet
ing OF Congress much depends upon the ac-
ton OF those engaged in financial operations
and business enterprises. Our vast national
resources and credit are abundantly sufficient
to justify them in the utmost faith and conf
dence. If instead of being frightened they
are conservative, and If instead of gloomily
anticipating immediate disaster they contrf-
butte their share of hope and steadiness, they
Will perform patriotic duty and at the same
time protect their own interests. The things
Just now needed are GOODNESS and calmness in
financial circles and study and reflection
among nnr nennla .,

: No Pensions to Bountv .Junpers


General H. w. Slocum, gallant
soldier in the late war, has published
letter in opposition to the indiscri
inmate granting of pensions. He de-
clares himself strongly in favor of pay
ing pensions to the real soldiers of
the civil war who are now disabled or
in want, but emphatically objects to
any payments to bountyjumpers or
men who enlisted in the closing days
of the war and who never heard a
hostile shot. The General is very
bitter in his denunciation of the boun-
ty jumpers, three of whom, he says,
she had the pleasure of seeing shot
in one day" These same men, who
risked death and disgrace during the
war to secure the bounty of the gov
erment, do not hesitate to seek that
bounty now in time of peace, when
they really risk nothing.

Comment was made in letter from
Chicago to The Agis, last. week upon
the meagreness Of the Maryland ex-
hibit at the Worlds Fair. 1t was
pronounced disgrace to the State and
it was advised that it better be remov-
ed altogether At recent meeting of
the Maryland Commissioners, upon
motion of Hon. Murray Vandiver,
the exhibit, which the Easton Ledger
says could be removed in a wheel
barrow, was ordered to be wheeled
away This seems to be an unsatis-
factory outcome for the amount,the
Legislature appropriated for dis
play of Maryland's resources.

The General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church, which closed
its session at Washington on the list
instant, suspended Prof. Charles A.
Briggs from the ministry of that
church for teaching and propagating
doctrines contrary to the Holy Scrip
lures and the standard of the Pres
byterian Church. The assembly also
dissolved its relation with the Union
Theological Seminary of New York,
in which Prof. Briggs is professor,
and withheld its approval of Lane
Theological Seminary, at Cincinnati,
until it, trustees accepted the resigna-
ton of Rev. DIR. Henry Preserved
Smith, a member of the faculty, who
was suspended by the Cincinnati
Presbytery for unsound teaching
The Assembly also reafhrmed its be-
lief in the inspiration of the Holy
Scriptures.
