met with a very unfortunate accident, on
Thursday last, while engaged in repairing a
wire fence, the wire suddenly snapped, and
one end struck him in the eye completely
destroying its sight. 4
Quite a number of studentsare now here
visiting home during vacation. Among the
number I observe I. V. Royer, of Dickinson
College, Carlisle, Pa.; a daughterof T. M.
Gramley, of Irvin College, Chambersburg, Pa;
also L. 0. Packer, of Hiram College, Ohio. be-
sides several others.
Danier Barrees Deap.—After an illness of
several months Daniel Bartges, a highly res-
pected citizen of Spring Mills, died on the
21st inst. and was interred in the cemetery at
Rebersburg, this county, on the 24th inst. His
remains were followed to the grave by a large
concourse of relatives and friends. The de-
ceased was for many years avery prominent
and influential farmer of Pennsvalley, but of
late years, owing to increasing infirmities and
advancing age, has lived a very retired life.
Four children survive him, two sons and two
daughters, His wife died twelve or fif-
teen years since.
Our Sunday school entertainments were very
successful, the interior of the churches being
beautifully decorated with spruce and ever-
green. The exercises consisted of recitations,
singing, dialogues, etc. The singing was ex-
cellent. Some of the recitations were render-
ed in a very able manner, and the speakers
did themselves considerable credit. The in-
fant department was remarkably good. The
little folks rattled off their pieces in first class
style. The Union Christian Endeavor Society,
held a service prayer meeting in the Reformed
church on Christmas morning at 7 o'clock.
The attendance was quite large. Brothers
Hock and Illingsworth officiating.
The viewers appointed by the court to
consider the advisability of a new road from
the Granger hall to the R. R. station, which
would also be a continuation ef the “kings
highway” from George's Valley and Penn
Hall, met here on the 22nd inst. The
viewers were unanimous in the opinion that
the road was a necessity, as at present those-
residing south east of Spring Mills proper, and
the rail road—a town almost in itself, for it
has almost as many inhabitants as Spring
Mills, must make a long circuitous drive to
and from the station. But with this new road
opened it would be a perfectly lavel thorough-
fare direct, besides open about one hundred
building lots. 'L'he opposition is very trifling,
one or two persons claiming a small damage.
The new road would be to their advantage
and benefit entirely. As now they have no
outlet, whatever, and can only reach their
land by trespassing on the property of others.
Books, Magazines, Etc.
Prof. Chauncey M. Cady, of Chicago, will
write for the January Century a paper entitled
“Responsibility Among the Chinese,” which
has a particular timeliness. Mr. Cady de-
scribes a unique feature in Chinese govern-
ment, which for instance, holds all the resi-
dents of a street responsibility for a crime com.
mitted within its boundaries.
St. Nicholas Magazine recently oftered
prizes for the best correction of a misspelled
poem. More than ten thousand answers were
received, and the committee has been over-
whelmed with work, the results of which and
the names of the prize-winners will appear in
the January St. Nicholas. Answers came
from Turkey, from Egypt and from Europe—
from a litttle countess in Vienna and from the
grandchildren of Emerson and Hawthorne in
America. The committee reluctantly make
the admission that the penmanship of the
English and Canadian children excels that of
Uncle S8am’s boys and girls.

Tae CoLumpra® CALENDAR—The Columbia
pad calendar for 1895 has made its appear-
ance, representing the eleventh annual issue,
and handy and convenient as it has been here
ed a decidedly friendly feeling fbr the Colum-
bia calendar, and its annual advent is looked
forward to with interest and pleasure. The
new calendar contains a much better ar-
rabgement than in previous years, more space
having been allowed for memoranda, while a
greater charm has been added by liberal illus-
tration and a unique and convenient grouping
of dates, calculated to meet the hurried needs
of business men. :
THE JANUARY Forum.—Following M. Leroy-
Beaulieu’s notable article in the December
Forum, the January number of The Forum
opens with a practical article entitled “Some
Suggestions on Currency and Banking,” by
Mr. Adolf Ladenburg, of the firm of Laden-
burg, Thalmann & Co.,—one of the largest and
most important international banking firms
in New York city. Asa cure for our financial
ils Mr. Ladenburg suggests that the banks in
every city or small district combine and form
a sort of clearinghouse bank, that these
clearing house banks combine and form a
state clearing-house bank, and that these
state clearing-hcuse banks eventually form a
national clearing-house bank which would
act as a great central reservoir from which
would indirectly, every liitle bank in the Uni-
ted States would derive strength and be able
to supply their customers with currency.
Such a combination, he thinks, would produce
“more money” than any of the “more money”
prescriptions, and give a permanent stability
to our finances. Vice-Admiral Sir Edmund
R. Fremantle, of the Royal Navy, who was in
command ofthe English fleet on the China
station during the war inthe East, contrib-
utes avery interesting paper on “Some Naval
Aspects of the Japan-China War.” Rev. Wil-
liam Bayard Hale, whose discussions of the re-
igious condition of several New England
towns in The Forum, a year ago attracted so
much attention, contributes an interesting
and suggestive paper entitled ‘A Study of
Church Entertainments.” Dr.Henry J. Gar-
rigues, an eminent obstetrician of New York,
writes about the bicycle with especial refer-
ence (ofits use by women, His opinion is that
bicycling, when not indulged in to excess, is
one of the most healthful forms of recreation
that we have. Mr. Frederic William Holls, a
lawyer of New York, in a very striking article
entitled “The ‘German Vote’ and the Republi-
can Party,” discusses the attitude of German-
Americans toward the great political parties,
especiglly their attitude on the questions
which have lately agitated New York—such
as the enforcement of the Sunday excise
laws. Mr. Holls asserts that the German.
Americans hold the balance of power between
the two contending political parties, that the
inclination is clearly toward the Republican
party, and that the success of that party de-
pends only on its being true to itself and its
early ideals—liberty, honesty, and the eff.
ciency of the government.
The illustrated articles in The Monthly Il-
lustrator aud Home and Country, for January,
are numerous and very fine. They include:
“My Pet Subject,” by Arthur Hceber vs,
Dresden Painter,” by C. Sandvoss; “Recol-

Meat. Every ounce of material in it is sound, clean and of the finest quality,
equal to it has ever been obtainable.
