IGNORANCE is BLISS"

The first and only human imprint ever
found in anthracite coal was uncovered
by Michael Sincavage, miner at the
Eagle Hill colliery, near Pottsville, Pa,
the imprint OF a mans foot Fossils OF
snakes, ferns, etc, have been plentiful,
but this is the first evidence that pre-.
historic man was in existence in this
country during the formation of the
coal beds. The imprint, it is estimated,
must have been made 10000 years ago
Sincavage, not appreciating the value
of his find, dumped it in an ordinary
coal wagon after he had shown it to
his fellow miners.

Town REORGANIZATION.
IPoultney Journal

The change from town representation
in the legislature to a more safe and sane
method is one that certainly needs cor
rection, and our neighbors of The Hard
wick Gazette and Ludlow Tribune are do
ing good work in agitating 1t. The town
system was all right years ago, but is
relic of the antique now. The idea Of the
state of Vermont with less population
than the city of Buffalo, n. Y, sending
243 men to compose the lower house is as
laughable as 1t is unique. or course there
are those who want it. The hotel pro-
prietors, the saloon keepers, and the bed
bugs in Montpelier will oppose a change;
1t would shut off such a source of supplies.
Many of the smaller towns will also oppose
1t as they can now have a few Hons"
in their midst who might not possibly
arrive at that dignity were representation
to be based upon population. But would
the state really miss them? There are
other honors to which they might aspire
and which they could easily attain. There
are poormaster, highway commissioners,
and several others on their native heath
that would exhaust their political energy
and satisfy their ambition. But candidly,
a house consisting of between 10 and 80
members apportioned among the several
counties on the basis of their population
would be far superior to the present con-
glomerate mass. The salary of a member
could then be say 5000 for the season.
This would cost less than the present
method Men of brains might be at
tracted to it, The several counties could
send representatives selected from a large
circle instead of being limited as is too
often the case now to a pocket borough Of
dozen voters or So nine of whom are
possibly fit for the position. We are glad
to see our contemporaries stir up the
animals along this line. Keep on,
brothers

Progress Of the Negro.

Booker T. Washington thinks that the
black race has much to be thankful for
The negro in 40 years saved more than
$500, 900, 900 worth of property. In IL
southern states he owns 1885 farms
He has a constantly increasing number
of public and private schools in session
several months in the year. and he has
organized and is supporting $4,000
churches, says the Boston Globe.
But as the negro increases in import
ance as a racial factor his increased in
fiuence among the other races is be-
coming more and more manifest. The
almost total disappearance OF lynching
during the last four months is due large
ly to race cooperation in creating public
sentiment in favor of law and order
There are certain elements of progress
so fundamental that We cannot refrain
from observing them, such as buying
land, discarding one-room cabins, diversi-
flying crops, giving increased attention
to stock, poultry and fruit raising, steer
ing clear of crop mortgages and avoiding
the contracting of useless expenses.
In all these matters the negro is max
ing rapid advances. They are all out
growths of his Industrial institutions.
All he has to do is to keep in close touch
with the school officers, pay the poll taxes,
build schoolhouses and lengthen the
school terms.
Morally the negro should strive to re-
duce the number of idlers among his
people, especially in the cities, and strive
to put a premium on right living in every
way Patience, forbearance, co-opera-
ton and hard work are bound to insure
success.

Life More AbundantIy.

If there Is any man here who is resting
complacently in the thought Of his own
sufficiency, let me remind him of the
old truth that no man is sufficient unto
himself. You may boast of your indie
pendence as much as you like, but no such
boasting can ever obliterate the fact OF
human dependence. It is always easy
wind and sunny skies But there will
come a time when you are brought face
to face with some great crisis,-the de-
cline of health, the loss OF property, the
death of a friend,-and then you will
realize your dependence upon a power
that is not yourself and upon a strength
that is not your own. And / ask, where
will you turn for strength in your hour
of trial II you have not accustomed your
self to walk with God in your days OF
prosperity? In what language are you
going to call upon him If you have never
accustomed yourself to talk with him
and to make known your aspirations and
your needs?
Oh, how l wish could make you realize
how unselfshly the church yearns to as
sist you in your search for God and to
prepare you for just such crises as thesel
1t yearns to so open your spiritual vision
that you may become conscious Of that
great world of spiritual reality which Is
all around us, and which is just as real
as the world Of physical force. And then
you will see for yourselves what we
preachers are all the time trying to tell
you, that the life that is Of the highest
order and finest quality, the life which,
as Jesus would say, Is more abundant"
is the life that is most keenly aware OF
this spiritual environment, most sensitive
to its every influence, and most complete
ly resro--'-'- ~ its demands.-[Rev. A.
