Township Bonrds of Health,
Something that has escaped the aves
of township politicians hereabouts is
the passage by the Senate of a bill that
was (utroduced in the House and
which now goes to the governor for
his signature, repealing the act of 1809
giving township school boards power
to act as Boards of Health, If Govern-
or Btuart signs the repealer it will
place the administration of health
aflairs in the hands of etate agents and
township health officers will be a
thing of the past after the expiration
of the terms of those now holding
office. This repealer was fathered by
the Btate Health department and the
desire to do away with the towuship
board’s health officers was because
there were in some parts of the state
frequent clashes of authority between
the state agents and. the township
health cfficers.

Concern'ng Presbyterians,
The statement recently printed in
The Centre Reporter that the Supreme
court of Tennessee has decided that
the Cumberland Presbyterian church
still exists and is entitled to the
property, taken by itself, may mislead.
Thuis decision applies only to property
held by the local churches in the above
state aud not tothe property of the
denomipations ss a whole, some of
which is situated in the state. The
“ug reme courts of four other states:
Ilinole, Texas, Georgiaand Kentucky,
have given an opposite decision, viz:
that the union of the Cumberland
church with the Presbyterian church
was legally effected and that the
property b longs to the Unionists,
Many think that if the matter should
be appealed to the Federal courts the
Tennessee decision would not stand.
Steps have been taken for an amiable
division of the property between the
Unionists and Auti-Unionlsts. The
latter are greatly in the mino ity but
hitherto seemed unwilling to listen to
sny proposition for a compromise
Now that they have the comfort of
one state court decision in their favor
haps they will be more willing to eu-
ter into a friendly settlement, and the
whole matter brought to a conclusion
honorable to all.

delegate from the Trinity Reformed
church, in Altoona. His talks abou!
the convention are both interesting
snd instructive. Every delegate was
wae the recipient of a Chinese coin as
8 memento of that great gathering of
men. These coins will be carried as
pocket pieces. The cash is a round
coin, about the size of a silver half
dollar, with 8 square opening in the
centre. When the small value of the
coin is known the reason for the hole
in it is easily understood, but why it
should be square instead of round is a
mystery. It takes eleven of these to
equal in value one cent of our money.
When the Chinaman goes marketing
or shopping he mast take & great many
of these coins with Lim if he wishes to
make extensive purchases, ro he strings
his mor e; and hangs it over his shoul-
der. Bowetimes a donkey is used to
carry the money when a great amount
is needed. Bome of these coins bear a
very ancient date, but it is not stamp-
ed on in figures. The age can be told
by the dynasty whose mark is on the
money.

A Curious Story.
The queen of Hanover, wife of King
Ernest Augustus of Hanover (better
known as the Duke of Cumberland.
son of George II11), died at Hanover
about 1842 of an illness which baffled
the skill of her doctors as to its real
cause. During her {liness a clalrvoy-
ant was consulted, who wrote certain
curious signs and words on the door
of her bedroom; but, although these
mystic words were repeated over and
over again, the queen died. The king
of Hanover after his wife's death gave
that her bedroom should al-
be kept as though the queen
would sleep there at night. The bed
was turned down, the pillows re
shaken, hot water brought and the
daintiest slippers laid In readiness for
her.—~Home Notes,
