NOTES AKOUND THE TOWN. TBOUSbU Suggested by Might Stroll Voice Beard med HighU Seen. IL It has beenaid that there arc "voices of the night," and it is equally true that there are sights also, even in Colombia. We recently made a midnight tenr of the town, jast te learn whether any bights were te ba seen. We discovered that there were, of an interesting, if net a startling character. On Locust street but little was seen. The night watchmen and the distant flielcering of several railroad men's lamps (it is strange but these lamps can be seen burning even en moonlight nights) were the only sights. In Mt. Bethel cemetery the bright moonlight was thrown back from the white stones which mark the last resting place of the dead, and dark shad ews from the trees, which steed like se many sentinels doing guard duty, were thrown in fantastic stretches along the ground. New we are net particularly fend of cemeteries and graveyards at night, but en an alley whieh sheets off from Bethel street and extends down te the Lancaster turnpike fronts a graveyard, and this, we had learned, was the camp ing ground of a gang of tramps, whom we desired te inspact. Se thegravo thegrave yard was visited. We poked our head through an opening left by an absent part of the fence and glanced around. Net a living soul could be seen, but a dreary sight presented itself. Tlie aged tomb stones steed leaning at all angles, and seemed inclined te seek the mother earth, like these whose graves they marked. The paths were overgrown with weeds, and everything ovinced decay and neglect. At this interesting moment a sound was heard whieh caused the goeseilesh te creep rapidly along our spinal column, and made our hat sit loosely en the ends of the risen hair. A sigh of relief escaped us, however, when a solitary Themas cat was discovered te be the cause of the alarm. lie had been calling en his " Mariar." Tew Hill next 1 And what numerous small alleys and lanes here abound ; places of evil smell, mauy of them. The jarring voices and oaths which issued from a Leuse in one of these lanes testiQed plainly that all Columbia was net asleep What ugly, bitter oaths they were, and new many souls consigned te perdition by words ! Suddenly rounding the cerner of an alley we stumbled ever something a human body. A red streak en the up turned face leeks like bleed, is bleed, and visions of a murder rise before our herri fled imagination. We muster up courage te feel the pulse, and learn that it has still a strong beat. Steeping te get a closer view of the wound, a strong smell of whisky comes from the supposed victim, and the wound only proves te be a small cut, produced by a hard knuckle, doubt less. After.considerable shaking, the bo be BOttcd wretch is awakened and told te go home, but the only thanks received for kind advice is a volley of oaths. The last words heard as we march iudignautly down the alley, is a request te go te a place where people don't require coats te keep them warm. During the stay en the " Hill " we had stirred up packs of hun gry looking curs, and these wretched looking creatures dogged our steps until we departed, barking furiously the while. Strychnine would release the white resi dents of the neighborhood from the tor tures of these pests. Maner street is en a height, and its long straight stretch, with the houses plainly outlined against the sky, presented a peaceful appearance. The music of an accordion was heard somewhere in the dis tance, but as we were after locals and net music, we did uet hunt up the midnight or rather very early morn musician. Frem Maner street down ever hills and the steep embankment of the Pennsylva nia railroad, and the Susquehanna rolling mill is reached. Hew the Arcs in the etberwise dark mill shine forth. Every thing leeks larger than it really is, and the sons of Yulcau seem te be rushing backward and feiward carrying out the orders of the old king, in the persons of the brawny men se busily engaged at their hard work. If any person tbinks a rolling mill man tee highly paid for his labor let him stand for ten minutes in front of a het puddle furnace ; he will change his mind en the subject very quickly. The Pennsylvania railroad roundhouse is next visited. The sound of hammers indicate that night work is going en. The business of this great read gees en in all its departments at night, as well as dur ing the day. The shifting engines in the yards give their head lights the appearance of great eyes look ing about for dangerous places. The sky has become overcast, meanwhile, and a storm threatens, and the distant rolling of heaven's artillery warns us homeward, A peep is taken into the bridge which spans the river. I; leeks like a great tunnel, and a light in the dis tance only makes mere visible the dark ness. A glimpse at the dark waters of the new angry looking Susquehanna, at the few dimly seen lights of Wrights ville, en the Yerk county shore, and the night inspection of Columbia is ever. bumevehmkiwul kicatukkh. Columbia a a Lumber anil Ceal Market. .III. Fifteen years age Columbia was the great lumber market of the lower Susque hanna as Marietta was of timber. Her lumber dealers bandied from forty te sixty million feet of lumber per year in these days, but de net new handle one fourth of that amount. Abram Bruner, ' 8r., Geerge Begle, Baehman, Themas & Martin, Jeshua Vaughen & bres., and F. S. Bletz were then the heavy local dealers. The wharves and shores of the river at this place were lined with raftF, whieh often formed platforms reaching far out into the river. The decline of the business began a few years after the war, when railroads began branohingeut all ever the country from the great lumber markets of the upper Susquehanna, and better facilities were thus afforded for the transportation of lumber, than by the risky system of rafting. Colombia, from being agreat marfcet whence lumber was distributed all ever the ceuntiy, has new become but a supply market for the smaller towns of this immediate section of the country. The prominent dealers of the present are Abram Bruner & Bre., Bachman & Ferry, E. N. Smith and F. S. Bletz. The saw mill and lumber yard of Abram Bruner & Bre. are located between the river and the Columbia & Pert Deposit railroad, and have a frontage en the river of about 900 feet. The saw mill has a capacity for pre ducing upwards of 5,000,000 feet of manu factured lumber annually, though the present condition of the lumbar market does net require that amount of lumber being produced new. The shipping facili ties of the Arm are very superior, a rail road siding connecting directly with the mill and lumber yard. They have new in stock about 100,000 cubie feet of timber, which will produce nearly 1,000,000 feet of manufactured material, and about 2, 000,000 feet of lumber. Bachman & Ferry's extensive lumber yard aud planing mill are located en the river shere adjoining the Reading & Cel" lumbia railroad coal shutes. Over 3,000, 000 feet of timber and lumber is annually handled by the firm, which has between $00,000 and $80,000 invested in their busi ness. The planing mill is frame, and is 100x75 feet and two stories high. The mill shed in its rear is 75x25 feet, and le,500 square feet of shedding is provided for sheltering lumber. E. N. Smith's lumber yard and planing mill is located between the lumber yards of tlie above firms. The mill is a two -story brick structure 75x18 loot. Twe ether large frame buildings are used for storage purpeses. Mr. Smith handles an nually for himself and ethors about 1,500 000 feet of timber and lumber. Half a million feet aloue are consumed iu the manufacture of tobacco cases. The saw mill and lumber yard of F. S. Bletz are located en the river shere at the south cud of town, and his lumber and timber operations will probably ame'unt te 1,000,000 feet annually. The Ceal Tratllc. What Columbia has lest in tlie lumber business, is partly compensated for by its immense coal traffic. Tlie Philadelphia & Heading railroad company is justly entitled te head the list, as it has lecated here ene of its great receiving aud shipping coal depots. The coal shutes, basins aud wharves are situa ted at the feet of Locust street, iu the rear of the depet, aud fronting en the river. Hore ware received last year 130, 000 teus of authracite coal, of prepared sizes, which were shipped te peiuts aleug the Tidewater canal and te Baltimore and Havre de Grace. In addition te this, 10, 000 tens were received for supplying Col umbia aud ether places. Fer transporta tion purpeses thore aie in the service of the cempauy ever forty canal beats. Over one hundred Columbia men receive em ployment in counection with the business. Frem 104 te 120 beats are leaded and shipped every month during the sepeu, which continues generally nine nientbs T.ie business here transacted represents a capital of half a million dollars. The Sus quehauna coal company's great coal yards are lecated north of the river bridge, and cover about two blocks of ground Mr. II. F. Bruner is the company's agent here, and has successfully managed the immense business for a number of years, having succeeded A. S. Green, deceased. The business is of a wbolcsale and retail character. During the time that the beating season continues 100,000 tens of eal are unleaded Iretn the beats in which it is brought from the mines, and from this placa it is distributed by cars all ever the country. Fifteen great derrick", five stationery engines aud fifty workmen are required for the opera tion of these yards. At what are kuewn as the Pennsylvania railroad coal wharves, 00,000 tens of bituminous coal are annually received for use en that railroad, the market value of which, wholesale, is about $210,000. 5,000 tens of 03.il are generally kept in s tool-. Filbert & Sen's retail coal yard covers about two acres of laud aud is located at Mill street. They de an annual business of ever 4,000 tens. Klair & Fasig clese the list with an an nual business of 1,200 of coal. Their, yards are located en the river shere, op posite the Pennsylvania railroad depot. KDUUATIOJNAI.. The I'ubllc Schools r Celumulii Under I'rer Amen. IV. Prof. B. G. Ames was elected superin tendent of the public schools of this place en the 4th of May, 1875, aud consequently has served in that capacity eight j cars. At the time of his election he resided at Bridgeteu, N. J., but immediately there after removed te this place and entered upon the duties of his new position. He found the schools without any or ganization and without any system of promotions, pupils oftenbeing promoted te relieve the pressure of overcrowded rooms. A reformation of the prevailing disorder was at once commenced and seen effected, and a cemplete and rigid system of pro motions was adopted and maintained. On account of the character of the gov ernment previously maintained ever the schools, there existed very generally a feeling of nutagenisin en the part of par ents toward teachers. Under Prof. Ames' administration this state of things has gradually changed, until there is new, almost universally, the fullest cooperation en the part of parents with teachers in the work. The government of the schools has been changed from a government of ferce te one of conscience. The red that terror te evil-doers has very generally given place te penalties, which are the natural reactions el conduct, and te appeals te th.- consciousness of right and wrong, and the results attained Cave demonstrated the feasibility of the plan. Such rules, and only such, have been adopted, as were found necessary te main tain the rights of pupils under the condi tions of school life. Teachers have sought te make justice or equity their guiding principle in all the requirements made upon their pupils in the regulation of their conduct towards each ether. The right of every pupil te his time for study has been recegaized, and no trespassing upon that right has been allowed. Under this system of government the morals of its pupils, as well as the attitude of of parent toward teachers, has very greatly changed. Insubordination te the authority of teachers is rare, and fights among pupils, which were formerly of almost daily occurrence, new seldom occur. Prof. Ames has adopted no method of teaching, without first understanding the psychological law underlying it, aud the methods tried have invariably been suc cessful. With regard te spelling, he believes that the ability te spell well depends upon the formation of the habit of noticing the form of new words, and has abandoned the old practice of requiring pupils te memorize columns of words from the spelling book, and has Bought te compel the formation of the above habit, by mak ing the correct spelling of every word one of the tests of a proper knowledge of each lessen. The word method has been adopted in reading, pupils being taught te recegnize words as objects. The results prove that this method is based upon true psycholog ical principles, pupils learning te read much quicker and becoming much mere fluent and natural readers than under the old alphabet method. In arithmetic the object has been te avoid all purely mechanical work, and te give the pupils a rational conception of its relation of numbers. The great object of instruction, which is development of mind and the imparting of knowledge, is ren dered imperfect when the pupil merely gees through a study in a mechanical manner. The motto of the public schools new is " net hew much, but hew well," and the object aimed at is the development of the power of thought and the power of ex pression. Thought power is developed by avoiding all rote and mechanical work, aud compelling pupils te think, and the power of expression by constant practice from the beginning, in the expression of thought, both orally and with the pencil or pen. The superintendent has deveted almost his entire time te primary instruction iu the schools as the basis of the entire system, and has sought, first of all, te socure absolute thoroughness in the elementary branches. He belicvcs that pupils new graduating from the department are better prepared te grapple with the problems of life than theso who graduated from the secondary department ten years age were. They think better and express themselves with greater facility. During the eight years that Prof. Ames has been connected with the public schools of this place perfect harmony has characterized the relations of school beard, superintendent aud teachers. By the adoption of a strict system of economy, the incidental expenses of the schools have been reduced ever 50 per cent, per term, these expenses including the provisieu et books for indigent pupils, crayons and blackboard erasers. The cur riculum which was adepted for the high school has been attacked several times through the town papers, but the superin. tendeut believes that it is entirely suitable for a high schoeol, and that the studies there taught are neither tee numerous nor of a useless character. IIe thinks the adoption of a lower standard would be the virtual abolition of a high school in its truest sense. Toe many schools are called high schools, when they are ically only secondary schools. He is well satisfied with the curriculum of the Columbia high school, with its undoubted excellent con (lit inn, and with the teachers in charge of it. In conclusion, it may be safely said that the public schools of Columbia have never been iu a better or mere flourishing condi tion than they are at present, and these results may be attributed te the untiriug and constant devotion of Prof. Ames in eharge, assisted by a faithful and efficient corps of teachers. Tlie Bliad Fisheries at Columbia. V. The shad fisheries of Columbia are all located below the dam. which spans the river at this place, and are composed of ever 35 batteries (a natural or artificial island or islet) and numerous temporary stands built of timber. The batteries are operated by from 3 te 7 men, the seines ued being from 70 te 100 yards iu length. One end of a soine is always attached te the shere of the battery when a "cast" is being made, while the ether is can ied out in a beat and then swept aieund in a semi-circle te another point of the battery. The ontire length of the scine is then closed up clese te the shere, and the captive shad there secured. The large meshes of jjhe seine generally allow the smaller fish te escape through them. Frem the temporary stands above re ferred te, the shad arc caught by processes kuewn as "dipping" and "scooping." JJy the former, an outstretched net en two bone and ciessed poles, which are in turn attached te a long, heavy pole, are used, while by the latter process a large bag like net attached te a long pole, furnishes all the tackle required for the work. The life is a hard one, the fishermen generally working from 3 o'clock a. m., until 7 p.m. As the season usually opens in the early part of April and closes June 25th, he is, during most of the season, compelled te work in cold water. The effects en the constitution can easily ba imagined. The prices paid by dealers te the fisher men for shad, range from $13 te $35 per hundred, everything depending, of course, upon the quality of the fish and the de mand of the market, coupled with the quantities being caught. It is a plain fact that the supply each year is growing less. Probably the most productive of the batteries is that belong ing te the Read Brethers, and located en the Yerk county Bide of the river. As many as 17,000 j-had have been caught in a season, years age, while new only 4,000 and 5,000 fish reward the same amount of toil and labor. The expense incurred in keeping the batteries, fishing stands and fishing tackle in geed repair is very considerable, and when all these facts are considered, it will easily be seen that shad fishing is net the lucrative busi ness it was ten years age.
