origin of Gunnowder-

The Chimes? were long credited with
the invention Of eunpowder, but not
long. ago evidence was adduced to in
dicate that the Arabians did not, as
commonly Supposed, introduce gunpow-
der into Europe during the Eighth and
Ninth centuries. 1t is believed by the
most competent authorities now that
the manufacture of the first gunpow
der was based upon the Fire Book"
Of Marcust Graecus, which appeared
in Constantinople about the middle of
the Thirteenth century This was the
source from which Robert Bacon. Al.
hertuS ,Magnus and Thomas Aqlnas
derived their knowledge Of gunpowder.
The first use Of gunpOWder TO drive
projectiles is aScribed to a monk. Ber-
thold Schwartz. whose discovery was
made accidentally while preparing the
mixture for medicinal purposes.

Possible Trend of Opposition
Waterbury Record)

A forecast of possible trend of opposi.
ton to the candidacy of the Hon. Frank
L. Greene for the Senate appeared recent
ly in the Rutland Herald and seems to be
authoritative enough to cause more or less
comment. Although couched in terms
that arerather vague, some definite sources
are given add references to the Legion, the
suffrasists end prohibitiouists are made.
We do not pretend to bold b1ief for
Congressman Greene and do not think one
is necessary, but it seems to be the gener-
al conclusion OF many good observers OF
this gentleman's career, ever Since he en-
tered public life, that the experience he
has acquired, together with keen, natural
talent for grasping the problems of Civil
governments makes him, not only the
leading candidate, but the logical candi-
date for the seat in the United States SEN
ate soon to become vacant.
1t has been said OF Congressman Gre ne.
that has he nevar had contest on his
hands.
This is a significant fact. 1t can hardly
be attributed to his good fellowship or
special astuteness as politician, but rath
er to his good fortune to have for con-
stitutency people who believe, all other
things being equal, that if value is given
for value received, even in politics, it is
better to continue than try an experiment.
1t is doubtful if the people in any other
state follow up the work of their rep;e5en'
tatives in Congress more closely than the
Vermonters and they have not been slow
to render a verdict,
His work in the lower House should act
as a trainining Of great value upon enter
ing the Senate. He certainly comes with
in easonable,expectations as to his regu-
larity as party man. He is not in any
sense a rubl er lamp as he has sncwn ny
his independence on many OCCASIONS. All
in all, we believe Mr.. Greene fully reflects
the dominant qualities, for which this Old
Commonwealth has long been notet, and
that no mistake will be made in retaining
him at Washington in higher capacity
