But how glad we will be to wel- come the approaching emancipation of vege- table life. Dr. John Feltwell, of Altoona, a practicing physician, and an ordained man of God, is with the people of this place. He is giving illustrated talks from God’s word, and they are free to all.

Jacob Leathers, an old resident near this place, has moved with his family to Mt. Eagle. Mr. Leathers was born and raised in this neighborhood, and it is altogether likely he bids adieu to the old home with regret, as many tender memories are connected with events occurring while living so long in one place. He is now nearly eighty years of age. The closing exercises of our school were witnessed by quite a large gathering on Fri- day afternoon the 18th. Many recitations, songs, and solos were listened to attentively. 'The **Amulet’”’ a well gotten up paper was a marked feature in the exercises. It was well read. The pupils acquitted themselves creditably, and much is due the teacher, Mr. Zeigler, for his labor in so large a school. Addresses were made by Mr. Hancock, a teacher in the township ; Mr. Waite, teacher from Blair county; director Swartz and others. A beautiful handkerchief case was a gift from the scholars to their teacher, the presentation speech being made in a lady like manner by Velta Williams. An ad- dress by the teacher, closed the exrecises. Books, Magazines Etc. The April number of The Century will have an important group of papers devoted to the Penn- sylvania coal-fields. Henry Edward Rood, in “A Polyglot Community,” describes the coming of the Italians, Slovaks, and Polacks, who have so largely taken the places of the English-speaking miners. He also takes up the sociological side of the question, and tells of the mode of life of the foreign colliery operatives, of their festivals and merry-makings, and finally considers what has been said for and against the ‘‘company store.” Jay Hambidge gives “An Artist's Impressions of the Colliery Region.” Mr. Hambidge visited the Lattimer region and has drawn a numbes of illus- trations for his own and Mr. Rood’sarticle. There are several pictures of Lattimer and its surround- ings, as well as typical portraits of the miners and their families, illustrating the peculiarities of the different races. Mr. Hambidge’s article de- scribes in a graphic way the picturesque phases of life in the foreign quarters. Idward Atkinson, the noted economist, writes of “The Advantage of England and the United States in the World's Commerce” —England from its manufacturing power, and the United States from its vast de- posits of coal and iron, Edward W. Parker, statistician of the United States Geological Sur- vey, gives figures showing “The Supply of An- thracite Coal in Pennsylvania.” ——Subscribe for the WATCHMAN. Announcement.
