most invariably speak of the uphill work
caused largely by the worldliness, the
spirit of greed, and the pleasure seeking
spirit everywhere present.
On the whole marked as may be some
advantages of the newer portions of our
country, one comes to appreciate through
such trip, the high worth of conditions
more settled and stable as found in New
England over those of inordinate rivalry,
boastfulness and uncertainty west of the
Mississippi. The strongest impression of
all is that of the value of ones own home
and state. The advice to "go west" still
applies far more to the young, than to
those of middle life or the aged. The
same amount of hard work and personal
sacrifice in the East would, in most
instances, produce as large results as in
the West
Mr.. Simms returns much improved in
health prepared to take up the work
which his responsible position imposes
upon him. He will occupy his pulpit
for the first time next Sunday morning.

The Cornwall Free Library will be
opened to residents of the town Mon
day afternoon, Sept. 4. and on subse-
quent weeks Monday and Thursday
afternoons.
1t is located at the house of II. j..
Manchester and the librarian is Frank
Manchester. Each applicant for books
will sign a promise to obey the rules
of the library and will be given card.
One book may be drawn at time and
may be kept two weeks, or renewed
for another fortnight. The State has
presented one hundred and two new
books. The Lane Library has been
given in trust to the town. Four hum
dred and seventy-four of its books are
catalogued with the new ones. Many
of these are valuable and interesting.
The remainder, being out of date or
unattractive, have been laid aside but
can be drawn on application. Three
volumes belonging to sets are missing.
viz, Marshall's Life of Washington, +"
Vol. l, Scotts "Tales of Grandfather"
Vol. /, and Prescott's History of
Mexico" Vol. 1. The recovery of these
books would be appreciated.
1t is probable that catalogues will be
issued soon and scattered about the
town. The trustees hope that new
books may be purchased every year and
the library be live thing.
Any who have books which they do
not care to keep longer, and which are
in good condition and desirable for
circulation, are invited to donate them
to the library. A large amount of good
reading is now available to our citizens.
and the trustees hope that the library
will be well patronized.

THE INCLINED ELEVATOR.
Moving Stairway Has
Been Put.

The latest application of the inclined
elevator, more commonly known as
the moving stairway, is found in a
freight elevator for carrying trunks,
mail bags and boxes between steamers
and wharves. This elevator, which is
practically a gangplank and can be
shifted about, contains within itself
the entire apparatus, including the
electric motor.
Its floor, instead of being composed
of planks, is movable platform.
There are only four such elevators
now in use in the world, and these are
all at Dover, England. Steamship men
at this port are considering its use
here.
Another use of the inclined elevator
is in stores, from basement to side
walk. On it men with hand trucks and
with rolling boxes or baskets are car
ried, as well as merchandise.
Another novel use for the inclined
elevator has been found in England,
at seaside resorts on it's southern
coast. Here, in many places, the beach
runs from high bluffs, from which Wis
itors must descend by stairs to reach
the shore. At number of these places
inclined elevators have been installed

GIFT FROM DYING ENEMY.
Moving Episode That Took Place on
the Field After the Battle
of Mukden.

A Japanese officer, writing of the
scenes after the battle of Mukden, gives
the following incident: among the
wounded Russians upon the field was a
boy of scarcely 16 or II, drummer boy,
shot through both legs. He held a ros-
airy in his hand, praying. Poor mite,
the pity of it! He was Pole, believe,
as he spoke German. He was so thirsty
that my bottle was not enough for him,
SO another half of the bearers bottle
was given to him, too, and he had some
biscuits. l had strong yearning to ask
him about his home, but he was weak,
and his spirit needed keeping up. Your
wound is nothing said. The Japanese
hospital attendant will be here soon and
take you away. And soon you will be
able to go home to your parents
Covering him up with blankets and
coats taken from the Russian dead, l
was just walking away, when he cried
out after me: "A moment, officer, mo-
ment. Kind officer, l have something
to give youths book. 1t was given
to me by my father when was leaving
home for the front. have nothing more
valuable to offer you, sir. 1t is the most
precious thing possess. And he kissed
my hand repeatedly, crying bitterly.
II accepted the book, and without a
word turned away to find another suf-
ferer. I would not have broken down
for colonelcy before those bearers
and my own men. The book was entitled
Himmelsbrod; or Elm Gebetbuch fur
Jugend' Dread of Heaven; or A Pray
erbook for the Young).

AN ANCIENT OBSERVATORY
The Famous Jautra Of India Built
by the Founder of
Jeypore.

At Jeypore, the pleasant, healthy
capital of one of the most prosperous
independent states of Rajputana In
dia, is the famous Jautra or observa-
tory, the largest of the five built by the
celebrated royal astronomer, icy Sing,
the founder of Jeypore, who succeeded
the rajas of Amber in 1893.
Chosen by Muham1nad Shah to reform
the calendar, his astronomical obser-
vations were formulated in tables
which corrected those CT De la Hire.
He built five observatories-at Delhi.
Benares, Muttra, UJjain and Jeypore.
1t is not under cover, says the Sci
entific American, but is an open court
yard, full of curious and fantastic in
struments invented and designed by
him. They have been allowed to go
out of repair, and many of them are
now quite useless, Il being impossible
even to guess what purpose they served
in the wonderfully accurate calcula-
tions and observations of their inven-
tor, but the dial. gnomons, quadrants,
etc.. still remain of great interest to
astronomers.

Western Impressions of an East
ern vacationist,

The Rev. Thomas Simms reached home
Wednesday after five weeks absence
during which he has travelled over 700(
miles. In the course of his travels Mr.
Simms sailed through the great lakes, 6
distance of 100 miles, spent a week il
the Yellowstone Park, visited the Lewis
and Clark exposition at Portland, Ore.
and passed one or more days in Buffalo
Duluth, st. Paul, Minneapolis, Spokane
Portland, Salt Lake, Colorado Springs
Denver and Des Moines.
Among the impressions made upon
him are the great beauty of the lakes,
the indescribable wonders of the Yellow.
stone Park and the stupendous natural
marvels of Colorado. AS to the cities
those most attractive of the great ones
are Spokane, Denver and Portland, and
among the smaller ones, Colorado Springs
and Livingstone are unsurpassed. He
says that one cannot but be sensibly i'm
country, the great fertility of the middle
west and the western part of Oregon
and Washington, between which lies a
great belt of arid, barren land fully SOC
miles wide, extending from the north to
the south, that awaits the development
long promised by champions of irriga-
ton. Concerning the Portland Expo
sition Mr.. Simms says that it is gem of
beauty, with an excellent governmental
exhibition, not an inferior showing of
foreign goods, especially from central
Europe and Japan, and remarkable ex-
hibit of farm and garden products from
states bordering upon the Pacific. He
was surprised at the high valuation
placed upon farm lands everywhere, in
central Iowa the prices range at from
sixty to one hundred and fifty dollars an
acre, in Montana, forty miles from the
railroad, at fifteen dollars per acre, in
Colorado, five miles out of Denver, five
hundred dollars an acre and in Lewiston,
Montana and Grand Junction, Colorado
fruit farms are valued at from one
thousand to fourteen hundred dollars an
acre. 1t is the opinion of many that
land everywhere throughout the west is
too high to warrant just returns to the
purchasing farmer, and unsafe as an
investment.
AS to moral, civic and religious work
the problems that confront the worker
are far more difficult of solution than
those of New England. In Spokane and
other cities the saloon is open all day
Sunday. In Iowa the state fair, with
paid admissions, was in progress on
Sunday; Portland, after trying the open
gates with the closed "Trail" for few
Sundays, finally yielded to the pressure
of perverted public opinion and then
opened side shows upon the Sabbath
which are of too demoralizing anature to
be open to the public any day of the week

Race Prejudice.

From Public Opinion.
 Race prejudice is really stronger north than south Nothing else so injures nor thern residence districts as the entrance of colored tenants? The recent street fighting in the San Juan Hill' district of New York City is evidence that race riots are not peculiar to one section Of the country. The Independent d'scloses the fact that there is an Ohio town In which negroes are not permitted to re- side. The average northerner treats the negro as an inferior to whose existence he is indifferent until he recognizes a colored enc roachment on his own boun- daries. Then the northerner "gets mad" The average southerner treats the negro as an inferior who is a real and very difri- cult problem, and be treats him as kind ly as he can. The north, free from most of the perplexities of the southern situ- ation, lays down lofty postulates found ed on the constitution of the United States.
