As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertisiug Mediam ft hus no competitor. ———— When an American corporation starts out to abruptly northward, flows its ugly way straight down into the “valley of death.” At that point the destruction is at its worst. A trackway has been hacked through the thick pines, the mas- sive boulders behind which the combatants at times songht shelter have been blown into fragments, so that rails might be laid and trol- ley poles erected. From Hancock station to the Taneytown road all beauty had been anni- hilated; close to the spot where “the superb” fell wounded and on along the edge of the Memorial Association's grounds and the stone wall of the Bloody Angle runs the railway. Even the wooded crests of Seminary Ridge, where Pick- ett's division formed for that as eault; the fields over which the valiant Vir- ginians moved so magnificently, and the heights where the tidal wave of rebellion @isgrace to the people of Gettysburg, the state of Pennsylvania and the United States. At its next session Congress will be appealed to for legislation which will rescue and protect the soil which drank in the blood of heroic thousands, bat surely the keystone state need not wait for national interference. Pennsyl- ‘vania’s legislature is now in session; why can it not do something for the salvation of that greed-dishonored region which it should proudly and uncompromisingly cherish? ——————— A project for interesting the people in sani- tary science and hygiene is now being discussed im Pennsylvania. A committee of the State Board of Health has taken up s suggestion ade in, but not acted upon by the legislature, and recommended that a day ia the spring be ‘fet apart as s holiday and known as Sanitary Day. On this day it is proposed that the atten- tion of the people shall be called in some special manner to the importance of « familiarity with senitary rales. It is suggested that pamphlets on hygiene be prepared for circulation, that popular addresses on sanitary subjects be ar- ranged for smd that other means be adopted for diffusing sanitary knowledge among the people. Any movement for arousing interest in the homes of the people on subjects of such vital importance is to be commenied. In one sense, however, every day should be sanitary day, and to be devoted to doing good in assaitery way. Some may think there is danger if a special day is set apart, lest people may consider that their duty is done if they Msten to the addresses then made snd dutifully read the pamphlets then placed in their hands. ‘The teaching given on such days must be fol- lowed by an active and constan! tion in the homes of the people of the knowledge im- parted. The Sanitary League of Washington has planned a similar diffusion of knowledge, but its scheme contemplates a constant cam- paign in the interest of cleanliness and health. ——_++2___. Secretary Lamont made no mistake when he revoked the order requiring Lieut. Henry R. Lemly, Third United States artillery, to rejoin his battery immediately. In a general way the Secretary is doing some creditable work as a re- former, but he was misled in the Lemly matter. Lieut. Lemly was not, in the eyes of the law, in the country. Congress specifically loaned him to the Colomt ian government for five years, and it would bave been a serious breach of that courtesy which prevails among friendly nations to have abrogated the contract because the offi- cer was here, at the request of the Colombian government, to see that its world’s fair ex- hibits were properly sheltered and arranged. ‘The order to rejoin was an error; it was very properiy revoked. es The World's terday in Chicago—first of a series of con- gresses that will occupy Columbus and Wash- ington Hajls until the exposition closes. About seventy distinct organizations are directly in- terested in the sessions of this particular con- gress, and it is understood that more than five thousand women will participate in the pro- ceedings. All civilized lands will be repre- sented in the discussions, and out of so much counsel good must surely come. Woman's in- fluence is the most potent of all regenerative forces, and if the diverse elements now gathered -in the Art Institute can only work harmoniously ‘their labor will not be in vain. +02 ‘Tue Sax has no improper interest in the re- tention or removal of public officials, but it has no hesitation in saying that if Secretary Gresham refrains from nominating a new chief of the bureau of American fepublics until he finds » man as well qualified as is Mr. Willsam Eleroy Curtis (whose resignation was yesterday accepted) be will bequeath the duty of filling that office to the Secretary who will take,| charge of the State Department early in March, 1397. ———_+++—___ And now there is to be an ocean liner eight hundred feet long. In the course of a few years ft may be that passengers will embark on a steamers bow in New Yérk, be transported along the deck in trolley cars and drop off the stern on to a dock at Southampton. a The Brooklyn handicap is over and the race for spoils will now resume its place in attention’ | ——— ‘The meeting of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, which opens in this city on Thursday, will quicken public interest in one of the greatest of religious bodies. The theological questions to be discussed are of interest and importance not only to Presby- terians, but to allother Christians. The same quiry—whether the passing years throw a} clearer light on Christian trath and whether | there are actual, existing modifications of be- liet which demand a corresponding modifica- | tion of the words in which beliefs are ex- pressed—arises toagreater or less dogree in every church, Whatever may be the ultimate decision in respect to the flexibility or un- changeability of Presbyterianism as a faith there have been notable changes in the methods of procedure at services which tend to render the latter more popularly attractive, For example, the length of service has under- gone great modification. Baillie writing in 1645 describes one service in which there were three prayers of two hours each, two sermons ‘f one hour cach, two short prayers, a short address and two pealms. In his quaint way he says: “So we spent nine to five very gracious- lie, After Dr. Twisse had begun with a briefe two houres, then psalme. After, Mr. Hender- sone brought them to a short sweet conference of the heart confessed in the Assemblie, and closed with a short prayer and blessing.” Per- haps Iatterday religion is less deep than that which ago, but it is certain that only » very select snd very small congregation could now be secured for » nine hours session. —___ + +2 _____ ‘The escape of a circus gorilla st Binghamp- ton, N.Y., will make the civilized world sigh for the return of Professor Garner. This par- ticular gorilla did no harm in particular, but nothing but threats of force would reduce him tos proper condition of docility. The great ‘trouble seems to be the absence of any means by which moral suasion may be brought to bear. When Professor Garner comes back he can organize a class in monkey talk, provide each zoological establishment with «man who can say soothing things n the Simian tongue and bring about conditions where arbitration can be intelligently conducted. It is to be hoped that Professor Garner will not find his surroundings so that he will be tempted to postpone his stay beyond # neces- sary point. + ‘Two brothers who wanted to invest in s swindling outfit in New York shot the man who agreed to sell them counterfeit moneyand then robbed them. The green goods man is likely to have much trouble with the wound. The two men will probably suffer a great deal of annoyance at the hands of the law, and the ill-feeling on both sides will not subside for » good while to come. Altogether it looks like » case where if there is any virtue in proverbs a few honest men might be expected to get their dues. There is a prospect that a number of Sunday schools will lose some of their most interesting pupils when the ranks of Chinsmen in this country begin to thinout. This may rob home missionary work of some of its picturesque- ness, but it may also give the benighted people. of our own kind » rather better chance. —___ + +s The Princess Eulalie can have no doubt as to her being welcomed. ‘The welcome may be s little deficient in the ornate qualities that char- acterize similar affairs in Spain, but it will be first-class in quatity, none the less, — 0 A Boston woman who has put on bloomers says that she bas not been put to any aanoy- ance by her costume beyond being stared at. ‘This may be; but as to the possible annoyance of the people who stared there is nothing said. + «= The world’s fair has earned the proud repu- charged in connection with it. ———_+2____ Australsa has no world’s fair, but she can furnish a very extensive bank failure exhibit, none the less. —_—__+++____ The question now is: Shall American society walk Spanish or shall it not, ——_+-____ SHOOTING STARS.

Among » number of young men who were re- cently visiting the city was one who has a liyely sense of humor and an impediment in his speech. A german was given in their honor, and the hostess observed that this particular young man did not dance. “I am surprised not to see you dancing,” she said. “Don't you care for it?” “Oh, y-yes,” he replied. “Then why haven't you gotten ® partner and joined in the amusement.” ““W-w-well,” he explained, “it’s th-this way.
