HEAT UNITS or DIxIg's COAL.
The Cost of Fuel in the south to b,
Figured Down Fine.


Washington. Feb. "a. E. Brinckerhoff.
of the Fuel Economizer Company Of Mat
tawan, ~ Y, has requested the depart
ment of the Interior to inform him as to
the price of coal generally used in the
power plants in the south and the num-
Der of heat units, as northern men are
talking of going south on account of the
cheapness of fuel. He thought the coal
used In the south was Of Inferior quality
to that Of the north and wanted to make
a comparison of the cost Of coal per heat
unit Ia the various localities.
Mr.. Sims, assistant secretary Of the in
terror, to-day sent Mr.. Brinckcrhon a let
ter stating that there, We're no statistics
compiled, concerning the number of heat
units per pound in the different varieties
of coal. Mr.. Sims says, however, that cen
sus reports show that an analysis of
coal obtained from the Pocahontas fiat
top coal fields Of Virginia and West Vir-
ginia, as compared with that Of the Con
nellsville coal fields of Pennsylvania.
shows the desirability of the coal for the
manufacture Of coke and other purposes.
The proportion of the total cost of man.
facture expended for coal varies with the
character of the industry and Of the fin
lshed product. 1t appears from the reports
made covering the operations Of textile
manufacture during the year 1890 that
in cotton goods I'm the southern states
the cost of coal constituted las per cent,
and the cost Of other fuel, II per cent. OF
the total cost Of the materials, and in the
New England states the cost Of coal was
BOP per cent. and Of other fuel, .0G per cent.
Of the total cost Of materials. In wool man
ufacture coal formed 138 per cent and
other fuel So per cent. Of the total cost OF
flnn
coal 2.16 per cent, and other fuel II per
cent. in the New England states.

question uppermost in mind, Where

This was soon decided, for the Mayor
recognized the familiar sign of \. VIII

his intention of stopping there, for
books. as he wisely said, are among
the most useful and acceptable pres
ents one can give. Not only did they
find books to delight them, but so

popular grocery establishment few

of the existence Of so many prosperous
stores as met his astonished gaze.

Gay. | see my young friend Jesse Bal
has one of the handsomest grocery
stores on this square, and we must &C

mutual qualification of seeing each
other detained them for such time
that the Major declared that it was
time for them to go TO the hotel fo1
dinner.
AS they were going to dinner the
Major stated that he and Jim wished
to do a little trading by themselves. 81
leaving the ladies and children at the
hotel, they proceeded up to the .ailoI'
ing establishment of &. \. Walters
where the abundant display of pat
terms for suits made it pleasantly diff
fcult matter to make a selection. How
ever an order was soon given for suits
for both gentlemen, and their pur
chases were apparently at an end.
The old gentleman, however. had
something on his mind, and soor

that he had been thinking about what

THE PREPARATORY DEPARTMENT

After this introduction, Prof Wilson
presented his discussion of the text.
We have space for only in imperfect
outline of that discussion.
Very appropriately the text comes
from the writings Of Paul, the noble
apostle versed in earth's wisdom and
endowed with heavenly wisdom,
the scholar of the New Testment,
and the one who could sympathize
with students. The context was then
explained, and the text shown to be
Pauls general desire for the Roman
Christians. These Christians were
living in the center of civilization and
culture, where good and evil were
taught. The Christian College is a
center of civiliztion, but even there
good and evil exist. The text is ap-
plicable to college life and duty.
Christian scholarship should seek to
be as wise as is possible, to secure
the highest wisdom attainable. Wis

cal Christendom, but you have agreed
admirably in practising the good old
doctrine of the perseverance of the
saints: and We are persuaded that you
will continue steadfast in the race
until you reach the stadium that
marks for you the las: Of life.
While in college you have been at
work. There is not a lazy person
among you. In the literary society,
in the Christian Associations, in all
the varied life of TIE College, you
have had an honorable and busy
share. You will be sadly missed, and
were it not for our experience of the
self-recuperative power of college,
and our appreciation of the necessity
of such separations, We should de.
plore your loss.

ted out the result of being wise unto
good and simple concerning evil; 1t is
that "God will bruise Satan under
your feet" Some Romans needed
Paul's words and were saved. Most
Romans later on rejected his counsel,
and Romanism was the result. But
Paul needed his own counsel, and
triumphed gloriously, even in his
martyrdom. The closing words Of the
sermon were as follows:
Young people of the class of9s, |
have esteemed it a privilege to be al
lowed to address you to-day in behalf
of the College and of our absent
President. One Of the most interes-
ting sights imaginable is presented by
the unending processian of young
people filing into college and down
through the long course of scholastic
training to reach, at last, the position
you this morning occupy. Many that
join the procession, drop out by the

dom is three fold: it comprises knowl-
edge, insight, and utilization of
knowledge. Christian colleges en-
phasize the third element, utility.
The wisdom sought is to be limited to
''the good, the whole good, and
nothing but the good" We are to
be wise unto salvation.
Christian scholarship should seek to
be simple unto evil" We are not to
be unsophisticated; but knowledge of
evil is not to stain the life. Christian
education endeavors to keep students
simple concerning knowing evil. 1t
tries to save the young from evil in
structors, bad companions, bad books
bad habits, bad principles, and bad
doctrines. Christian education strives
to prevent its proteges from doing
evil, either physical, intellectual
or spiritual.
