First English Settlement.

RALEIGH, Nov. 29.-To-day me-
mortal was erected on the site of old
Fort Raleigh, in Dare county, to COM
memorate the first English settlement
in America. 1t was erected under the
auspices of the Roanoke Colony Me-
mortal Association. The base is of
North Carolina granite and the tablet
Of the Virginia granite. The tablet
bears the following inscription "On
this site, in August, 1885, the colon
lists sent from England by Sir Walter
Raleigh, built the fort called the new
fort in Virginia.
The colonists were the first settlers
of the English race in America. They
returned to England in July, 1886,
with Sir Francis Drake. Here was
born on the 18th of August, 1887
Virginia Dare, the first child Of Eng
land parents born in America, the
daughter of Ananias Dare and Eleanor
White, his wafe, members Of another
body of colnnists sent out by Sir Wal
ter Raleigh in 1887. Two days after
her birth baptized. Manteo, friend
ly chief of the Hatteras Island had been
baptized on the Sunday preceding.
These baptisms were the first celebra-
tions of the Christian sacrament in
the territory of the thirteen original
United States. The monument was
dedicated with appropriate religious
exercises and an address was delivered
by Graham Davis, President Of the
association. The outlines of Fort
Raleigh are distinctly visible and the
angles are now permanently marked
by granite pillars.

This Bible 800 Years Old.

The Rev. Jared Fritzinger, residing
at gil Hamilton street, is the owner of
q Bible printed in Germany in 1886
making its present age 300 years:
With the exception that few leaves
are imperfect in form it is in good
condition. The print is plain, the let
ters we'll formed and the paper of a
coarse but substantial quality. 1t is
printed in chapters and has large
number of illustrations. The volume,
however, looks awkward by comparing
it with modern publications, and
plainly sets forth the progress and ex-
tension in the art Of printing since
the venerable work came from the
press. It came to the Rev. Fritzinger
from German-born, aged widow lady
at Liberty, Tioga County, Pa, in 1851,
where he served his first charge, soon
after admission to the reformed min
istry. Very naturally the ancient sa-
cred volume is priced very highly,
and no money could induce him to part
with it.
The first printed edition of the Bi-
BILE was commenced in 14444 and finish
ed in 1860. The first edition of the
whole Bible, strictly speaking, was,
however, the Comprehension Polyglot
of Cardinal Ximentes, issued in 1917,
SO that the Fritzinger's volume is a
very early edition. The next oldest
Bibles in the county the Morning
Call knows of are a collection Of six
owned by DR.. Daniel Yoder, of Cata-
sauqua, they bearing the dates of 1880,
TIA, 1874, 1885, 1875 and 1853. One
of these Bibles was used for many
years in the pulpit by Rev. John Con
rad Yeager, who was pastor Of the Lu-
theran Congregations in Allentown,
Friedenville, Shoenersville and Dry
land until 1882, when he was succeed
ed by his son, the late Rev. Joshua
Yeager, of this city. The oldest Bi-
BILE now known of in Pennsylvania is
in the possession of DR.. Charles 81.
Haesler, Of PottsVille, and was hand
ed down in the family from father to
son for period Of 341 years, it hav-
ing been printed and purchased in
1856. Several years ago Gutenberg
Bible, printed in 1856, was sold at
public in the city Of New York for

Certainly, it is right to do good ontheA

works of necessity may be done. But
all other works must be stopped. Tt
is not enough, however, merely to-
stop working. Suppose man stops;

ing the Sabbath? No. Suppose he
stays at home and reads newspapers
is that keeping the Sabbath? ? No. If
a company Of boys go out and romp in
the woods, or fly their kites, or play3
marbles; or, if company Of girls get
their dolls out, and dress and undress
them, they are not working, butSare:
they keeping the Sabbath Not at
all. 1t is not enough simply to stop
work. In the second place, we must;
spend the day worshipping Goo, and

produced some wonderful results
through the artificial stimulation of
the arc lamp. Prof. f. ". Rane, of
the West Virginia experiment station,
has accomplished almost as much with
the incandescent lamp, which he
claims to be more available. Prof.
Bailey hung 1000 candle-power arc
lamp in his greenhouse, and kept a
current on all night. He found that
termination proceeded much quicker,
some Of the plants running to seed, in
fact, before the edible leaves were
formed.
The plants even bent or were at
tracted toward the lamp to an angle Of
IS degrees, but Strengthened up again
during the day. In three weeks let
tuce which had received the benefit Of
the arc light was double the size Of
that which had not, although both had
been planted at the same time. Diff
ferent plants are variously affected,
and all plants are affected more hig hly
when the arc Ii ght is covered with a
globe than when it is bare.
Prof. G. D. Warren, of the Amherst
experiment station, has experimental
with electric currents sent through
the earth. Several inches below the
surface of the earth he caused large
number Of wires to be strung. They
extended from side to side of the gar
den, and, in fact, before burial looked
like the strings of an immense piano.
Seeds were planted in the earth
above the wire, and the current was
constantly exerted from nearby
power house. Strange results were
obtained. Many seeds sprouted before
their time. Roots of vegetables were
found to be greatly enlarged. Iu
another garden, side by side with the
electric garden, the same kind of seeds
were planted of course, nothing ex-
traordinary was observed.
All of these investigations are part
of our natural progression, and the
scattered elements of electric farming
are sure to be rounded up and reduced
to well-moulded and practical basis
before very long.

Starting q Balky Horse.

A skinny, ill-fed, discontented and
anarchistic horse had come to the con-
clusion that it had hauled its load far
enough and that it would defy the
overbearing master and 60 no further.
The result was a blockade of the
street, caused by balky horse. As
is usual in such cases a crowd gather
ed to discuss the situation. Every
one took hand at trying to lead the
horse, but it planted its fore feet
firmly and refused to be budged.
Various suggestions were offered to
assist its locomotion, but few of them
were tried. The comedian of the
crowd offered the time.worn sugges-
tion that fire be built under it, but
it fell fiat and no cne even smiled.
In the crowd was a well-dressed
man in silk hat and natty over
coat. He had observed in silence all
the ways and means for moving the
obstinate horse. At length he step
ped forward and said
"Let me try. Who's got a piece Of
string ?" A small boy went into his
pockets and produced the desired arti-
Gle, good, stout lenghth Of packing
twine. "Now get me a short stick
and well soon get this horse out of
the way" said the man. The small
boy also produced a stick. The
crowd gazed stupidity and wonderingly
at the preparations, although those
whose suggestions had been rejected
smiled satirically.
The man in the silk hat had tied
one end of the string to the stick and
then began to wind the other end
around the horses ear. The horse
hung his head and looked obstinate.
AS the string began to tighten the
horse woke up and tried to jerk his
head away. The further the string
was wound the uneasier the horse
grew. After the last wind had been
taken the stick was thrust through
the brow band of the bride. The
horse wriggled his ear vigorously,
shook his head impatiently, then his
eye grew wild and Ac began to move.
His will was beginning to weaken.
Suddenly he started off wagging his
ear briskly and the crowd cheercd.
'That's the way We used to start
balky horses and mules when | was
freightipg down in Mexico a good
many years ago. A horse can only
think of one thing at time and the
string on his ear takes his attention
