TERMONT METHODIST SEMINIRP.
Successful and Enjoyable Commencement
The Baccalaureate. Music Recital and
Prize Speaking.


The annual commencement exercises at
this tlourishing institution began last Sum
day morning with the baccalaurate sermon
before the graduating class by Professor +.
A. Bishop. The class was seated in front
of the pulpit, and every available seat in
the house was filled. Professor Bishop
preached on the power and presence of the
Son of God, from words found in Matthew
xviii: Is 20, "All power is given unto me
in heaven and in earth, and 10, am with you
alway, even unto the end OF the world"
Briefly epitomized, the discourse pointed
out: First, the power aud presence of
Christ in point of knowledge and lofty pur-
pose, as seen in the temptation in the will
derness; second, in his control over evil
spirits, as when he cast out devils; third,
his power 10 forgive sin and heal the body;
fourth, his power to control the elements :
tifth, his power to raise the dead, and lastly
his power TO conquer the grave and hell.
In addressing the graduates he said: "The
theme presented this morning, like that on
similar occasions, is intended for kind of
watchword. Most that | have said | ex-
pect you will soon forget but is it too much
TO hope that the theme will remain in mind
long after we are separated? II so, the
hour will not be in vain. l charge you to
remember who it is that has promised to go
with you in all your walks of life, and, so
long as you desire him above all else, will
never leave you or forsake you. This pres
ence will be to you conscious fact. Then
live always with the consciousness that
Jesus walks and talks with you. can give
you no adequate idea of the comfort and
help that conscious presence and power
will afford you. He will save you from the
snares OF the tempter he will create within
you holy desires and aspirations, and in

"Have you ever noticed" said o st
Louisan yesterday, "those massive iror
pillars now standing erect in the base
ment of the new Planters House? Well
did you ever stop to think of the i'm
mense weight they will be compelled t.
support steadily for many, many years.
Oh, You have. But 1 suppose you have
thought the manufacturer Just made
those pillars and sold them withou,
knowing anything about how much
weight they would bear or how long
they would bear it. Let me tell you
about that.
"Those pillars are cast in the SAINT
manner as cast iron stoves-by running
The liquid metal into sand molds, bui
alonside of each pillar is cast an iron ba,
from the same metal. The bar is pre-.
cisely an inch square and 81 feet in
length. When cold, it is subjected to a
very simple test. Each end Of the bar
IS placed upon table and weights are
suspended from the center by u rope. II
must bear tensile strength Of SOC
pounds to the square inch. The test may
begin with 400 pounds and be gradually
increased until the bar is found to be
perfectly supporting the required weight.
Il it breaks. for instance, at $50 or 400
pounds. then the pillar cast from the pot
Of metal which cast the bar is discarded,
broken up and put into tho pot again.
With more pig iron added. The pillars.
you know. are largely made from scrap
ron. and the manufacturers cannot know
the strength of the cast until it is tested.
The addition of pig iron in the event Of
failure brings the cast up to the stand.

An event which should have been seen
by packed house at the Opera house last
evening was the performance of the Crust
of Society by john b. Stetson's company
of players. 1t was charming per-
Torrance in every way, and the thr, e
hours nsed to produce the piece were
most pleasantly passed by the good sized
audience. The Crust of Society is unlike
anything ever seen in Bangor before. The
scene of the play is London, and the play
itself represents phase of life not uncom-
mon in European and American cities. 1t
is play intended to point moral and
adorn tale"
The company is company of artists
every member being fitted for his or her
part. Miss Tilbury as Mrs. Eastlake
Chapel and Mr.. Lewis as Oliver ST. Aubyn
were given pleasing reception, they being
old favorites in Bangor. Both gave strong
Interpretation of their roles.
Mss Tilbury was particularly
effective in the scene of confession
to Capt Northcote. Mr.. John Flood who
assumes the Latter role shared the honors
with Mr. Lewis and Miss Tilbury. Miss
Charlotte Nelson gave fine Interpretation
of Mrs. Ernestine Echo. All of the other
parts were admirably handled.-Bangor

The word zero" Is from the Spanish and
means nothing. Here is one story about its
first use for thermometer in 1875 by a
Prussian merchant named Fahrenheit.
From a boy Fahrenheit was y close OBJ.
server of nature, and when only 10 years
old, in the remarkably cold winter Of 17O9,
he experimental by putting snow and salt
together and noticed that it produced a
degree Of cold equal to the coolest day OF
the year. And that day being the coolest
day that the oldest inhabitant could re-
member, Fahrenheit was the more struck
with the coincidence of his little scientific
discovery and hastily concluded that he
had found the lowest degree of tempera-
ture known in the world, either natural or
artificial.
He called the degree zero and construct
ed thermometer, a rude weather glass,
with a scale graduating up from zero to
boiling point, which he numbered 2f2, and
freezing point SO. because, as he thought,
mercury contracted the thirtyeecond Of its
volume on being cooled down from the tenn
pcrature Of 'ezing water to zero and ex-
banded the one hundred and eightieth on
being heated from the freezing to the boil
ing point.
