FOR COCNTY SURVEYOR. FRANK E. McQUISTION. Early American Coinage. Vermont was the fint State to issue a coinage oe its own authority. Copper coins were issued in 1785. The fint Maryland coins were minted in 1®62, and war* put in circulation by Council ordering every householder to bring in sixty pounds of tobaooo and re ceira 10 shillings of the new money in ex ehange for it. In 1634 tha Massachusetts General As sembly mad# bullet* a legal tender by the following enactment. "It is like-wise or dered that musket bulletta of a full bo are shall past ourrently lor a farthing apiece. Provided that noe man be compelled to take above XII att a tyme in them. 7 ' IK response to an inquiry when, by whom and under what circumstance! was the ratio between gold and silver established, the New Tork Evening Poet givee this bit of information: "The ratio was not es tablished by any government. It grew. The historian Mommaen tells us that gold waa the first metallio money in Greece and silver Uxe first in Asia Minor. The neceeeitiee of trade required that there should be some ratio between the two, but it was fixed by the custom of mer chants, not by governments. Both kinds of money drifted into Italy with the Greek migration, bat there tbe earliest money was copper, and there was a ratio between silver and copper, a ratio established by custom, which was liable to frequent change. The modern conception of a ratio between silver and gold started with the first ooining of gold alter the middle ages in the thirteenth century." GBOORAFHY still has some wonders to nofold aooording to several able papers read before the International Geographi cal Congress in London. One of these,from a distinguished Norwegian geographer, re lated to tbe antarotio oontinent, which is as yet unvisited. —The size of this un knewn region is estimated at 8,000,000 square milea, or more than twice the area of Australia. So many strsnge animals and plants were discovered in Australia th.t the exist en oe of carious forms of life in the anthartic continent may be reason ably taken for granted, and primitive tribes of men should exist there also, Judging from the past history of geograph ical exploration. Several antarctic expe ditions are propoeed, and before 1900 is uhered in some later Columbus may bring amasing news from the Southern polsr latitudes. Mu. P. T. BAB* CM, widow of the great showmen, was married on Wednesday of last week, in New York, to Dimitri Cairas, a Greek general. lira. Barnum is 43 yeari old. She was lormerly MUs Fish, of Nottingham. She was Mr. Barnum'* •aoond wife, and was 23 years old at the time of her marriage. By the terms of hit will Mr. Barnatn, who died in 1801, left hie widow SIOO,OOO in cash and an annuity of $40,000 for life. Mrs. Barnum was also made residusry legatee of the $20,000,000 estate, with no instructions as to her marrying again. THI news from China is far from reaasaring to the friends of tbe mission aries and other Americans in that country. Reports of massacres multiply. The Chinese government is weak and lacks any great inoentivs to proteot foreigners. This comes largely from the fact that Bnseie has led tbe Chinese to believe that they need not fear outside interference. If the other civilised nations do not now teach China a lesson that will once for all end these hideous maasacres a great mis take will be made. Tmm Colima volcano at Guadalajara, Msxioo, is again active, and tbe inhabi tants at the foot of tbe mountain are flee lng for safety, aa tbe lava is pouring down its sides and threatens to completely de ■troy all the orops and the houses in the risk valley below. This volcano has been unusually active during the last two months, and tbe eruptions have been ac eoropanied with severe seismic disturb ances. J a Pi* ordered 30,00$ tons of iron pipe from United States manufacturers, the order having been secured by an Alabama pipe and foundry company.—lt is said to be the largest contract for Iron for foreign shipment on reeord, and was secured in competition with the leading i:on manu facturers of the world. This is certainly a notable trinmph for onr iron men, and especially for the South. Caahier's Crime Recalled. X year ago. Harry A. Gardner, cashier of the Second National bank of Altoona, defaulted and left for parts unknown with $190,000 of the bank's fends. That event waa followed bv the most sensational dis closures, including the temporarv closing of the bank and the suicide of Bank Ex aminer Miller, whe blew out bis brains when he began, to realise in his investi einn of the bank books how completely bad been duped by his trusted Iriend, Cashier Gardner. Oardner has not oeen heard ot since bis disappearance. Recently bia wife and family, wbo had keen residing in Hollidaysburg, visited friends in the oountry, one Sunday after noon. They were driven from their friend's home in a closed oarriage to Huntingdon, where they boarded an east bound train. It is thought that they took an ocean liner from New York to Join the fugitive cash ier in South America. Tbe detective* were dnmfounded when they learned of their mysterious leaving. Gardner was a man or means, and sti:i owns a fine mansion borne and estate in Hollidaysburg. Suits brought by the hank to take Ibis property in satisfaction of a portion of its losses, aie new pending beloie tbe state supreme court on legal technicalities. Tbe bank also attached a large block of stock owned by Oardner in a local building and loan association, but tbe cashier's lawyers claim tbe stock for their fees. The opinion prevails that the missing cashier will never sufler either in person or estate by reason ot bis defal cations. The He Idlers' Orphans' Schools. It is said that the Soldiers' Orphan 8 ckool Commission will be compelled to rejeot many applications for the admission ul children of soldiers into tbe Soldiers' orphsn srbools, because of insufficient room to accomodate them. The aggre gate capacity of the fonr schools under tbe supervision of the commission Is about 1,000. This is owing to tbs failurs of the Legis lature to appropriatee $225,000, the amount a sked to provide additional room to the Industrial Sohool at ScotlsDd. snd thus abandon tbe other orphan schools. Tbe appropriation should not have been with held, and was lest simply btcause there was no one en the eppropriatiou commit tee sufficiently interested to insist upon it. Tbe schools at Unlontown, Harford and Chester Springs will, therefore, have to be continued at least two years more.

Eight meu met frightful death* and as many more were terribly burned at the Edgar Thomson steel works at Braddock Tuesday morning. Six were killed outright and two died, | one on the way to Mercy Hospital, and the other just after being taken there. The accident happened through a blow j oat at Furnace H, and was the worst since | the disastrous one which happened in the j tall of ISB9. i The blowout or explosion occurred at I the top of the furnace In dumping the I ore into the huge bell the barrow, weigh ing fome 1 500 pounds, wa« accidentally allowed to topple over into the receptable I for the ore. and was bearing its weight on I the I,ell, which it was impossible to raise. In the meantime the pas was accumu lating rapidly betwe°n tbe bell an I ', what is known ss a "hang" in the furnace. It w*s to t»k* this load from the bell that a gang of 14 laborers under the lore manship of James Harriscn were called to the top of the furnace. They were all supplied with btigc iron crowbars and * are in tbe act of raising the heavy weight from the bell when the "bang" gave way. The e Ifect was horrible. Without a moment's warning immense volumes of burning Java and nas surrounded tbe un fortunate victims The flimes of the burn ing gas belched from the top of the furnace >. a height of fully 300 feet. The igneous mailer from tbe "furnace was hurled a thousand feet away, and the furna<-e fori the time being took on the appearance of I a volcano in ei option. The me.n on top of the furnace were uken so unaw-ires that they had no time whatever to make any attempt to escape to the shelter, which is provided lor tbe feeders of the furnace. One man was iifted high into the air a distance of fully 100 feet snd dropped down the elevator sbalt. lie struck on a car on one of the .sidings, and his body was literally cut in two. several of '.be remaining ones were so completely overoome that tbey dropped unconsciouel" to the iron floor and were quicklv enveloped in the fierce flames, which burned their boiiies to a charred and lifeless mass.

Tli» train plunged forward with lightning like rapid ity uulil the morn ug hour was proclaim ed to be 0:30 and the exposition groupds were reached. The party then wended their way to a secluded spot in which were a large num ber of seats and tallies. Some or.e an uounoed that an early dinner would be >erved, and each one was to take care of number one and remain within call of this centre of attraction. The gentlemen of the company procured t*o large water melons and the ladies hastened in their preparations for the meal. Alter dinner they boarded the steamer to make a tour of the lake. They made one stop at. a sin*ll town; a few explored the town and tested the ice cream, others gazed with eagerness over tbe wide ex panse ol water and enjoyed tbe refreshing breezes that were waited over the lake. The other stop was at the picturesque place—Oakland Beach —a ride on the rol ler coaster was anticipated, but imagi.ie the disappointment when the pl»ce was reached, ■> it no roller coaster in motion. Some took strolls over the bills a*i(l vales and some found a comfortable seat and conversed on the beauties ol nature and otheis wandered along the shore in search of pebbles and shells as relics. Alter a short -taj they went ou board and soon tbe starting place was reached. Tbe party thou continued to enjoy them selves; at ft P.M. a luucl: was prepared. After supper the crowd was arranged for their pictures to be taken. A bout 0 o'clock the time for returning found each one ready for a journey to "home, sweet home." About 0:30 a cry of "Oneida" Hounded in the air. which interested every one. Ila-ty farewells were made and the party wended their homeward war concluding it was a day long to be remembered with pleasure, and worthy ol a place in the au nals of their history.

The spectacle of energy and vigorous growth which the garden and field afford at the present tiae should till every thoughtful mind with reverent wonder. Man, when he projects some complicated building filled with apparatus and con veniences for varied purposes, plans it ali out with skillfull care, and then by the aid of innumberable workmen, all skilled in their various departments, fashions and shapes the needful materials, and by building the fabric tip piece by piece, finally triumphs in his completed work j If, however, he wants to duplicate or en- large it, precisely the same process ha« to be gone through strain, and the first work only aids him as a pattern. In Nature, however, we find fie ir ost complicated fabrics apparently making themselves; and having one of these in our possession, we many, as it were, pu'l a brick out of the factory wall, stick it in the middle ot a suitable site, and lo! it will begin splitting itself up and spreading around until we begin to see the plan of another factory developing; everything be adjusted to a nicety as the performance roes on, until finally all is complete and in lull working order. Can anything be more marvelous than thisf and yet it is going on all the time, and if any reader tails to grasp the fact, let him gel a mirror and see such a factory in himself. These wonderful bricks are the cells; and of course in man himself the marvel is the greater that some of the cells which ° or " tribute to build him up, i. e., his brain cells, are the fathers ot the iaorganic ru brics which dot the world with cities and towns, and seam it all over with the bene ficent mycelium of rail and road which at once engedders and fosters their exten -1 In the vegetable kingdom this power of self-construction in the cell is easily stud ied in some of its lower forms by means ot a microscope; some of the translucent wat er weeds especially display very clearly the delicate network of ceils which con si itute their comparatively simple struct ure Valisneria spiralis does so to perfec tion, and the circulation ot the sap from cell to cell is shown very clearly. A very simple object, showing not only how the oils multiply, bat also in a small degree that iscratable wonder of building to plan, is the protballus of a fern, the little green scale produced by the spore. A periodi cal examination of one of these from the time it is a tiny dot up f> that of the full size scale, will show distinctly all the stages of self-shaping, and also the differ entiation into root hairs, and the J e P ro ductive organs, which may be regarded as the machinery above alluded to. A few spores scattered on a piece of damp clay are easily tandled and examined f rora time to time without detriment. rrom 1 such a simple manifestation it becomes easier to carry the mind to the more com plex cases where plants not merely build themselves up iato stems, leaves and charming flowers, but more marvslous yet, constitute themselvss subtile chemi cal laboratories in addition, in which the deadliest poisons, beneficent medicines, or r nutritrous food and stimulants are all t alike formed from the same soil constitu ents by Nature's own alchemy. The self • same family, indeed, may emurace both extremes, the deadly nightshade and the tomato to wit, or, more wunderlul yet, one and the same truit. such as a peac.h, may yield a store of delicious food in its flesh, while hiding the deadliest of poisons prussic acid itself, in the kernel. Truly, when we consider these things the spec tacle of a plant in full growth is one ol overwhelming interest, as active evidence of the creative power of which we know so little though we see so much. —The Gard eners' Magazine.
