July "STILL they those auony- mous communications, and "still they go" into the waste basket. THE new schedule on the Y. P. B. is working nicely.

The trains connect with the morning train for Baltimore. Passengers leaving Philadelphia on the early morning train, will reach Delta by II a. m. and Peach Bottom at 11:20. A NUMBER of persons were literally "left" by the early up train on the Y.

P. B. R. W. the morning the new schedule went into effect.

The HERALD has been severely criticised for not publishing the changes last week. But at the company did not put out their schedule till Saturday, we could not publish it in Friday's paper. -REV. D. M.

DAVENPORT gave his hearers a forcible and timely sermon, last Sunday on the third Commandment The habit of sweating is disgustingly prevalent. It should be enough that no gentleman swears. Swearing is hateful even to swearers themselves, TMhe prartice is not only abominable to all rightminded people. but is desperately wicked in the sight of God. Two Cincinnati Judges are stumping Ohio for the Governorship, Hoadley on the Democratic ticket and Foraker on the Republican.

The fight will likely be a hot one, in which the liquor quest ion will occupy a prominent place. The Republicans declare for the Scott Law and the submission to the people of a constitutional amendment prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors. The Democrats "take the THE students of Lafayette College at the close of the last school year, held an indignation meeting over that branch of mathematics called Calculus. We scarcely know which most to students, or their instructors in mathematics. Calculus is a most charming branch of science, and to one whose previous training has fitted him for it, its study is not more difficult than common arithmetic.

We therefore see no reason why it should be made the subject of such an imposing burlesque. THERE are a great many people who imagine that elementary teaching might be properly carried out by teachers provided with only elementary knowledge. Let me assure you that that is the profoundest mistake in the world. There is notliiugso difficult to do as to write a good elementary book, and there is nobody so hard to tench properly and well as people who know nothing about a subject; and I will tell you why. If I address an audience of persons who are occupied in the same line of work as myself I can assume that they know a vast deal, and that they can find out the blunders I make.

If they don't it is their fault and not mine; but when I appear before a body of people who know nothing about the matter, who take for gospel whatever I say, surely it becomes needful that I consider what I say, make sure that it will bear examination, and that I do not impose upon the credulity of those who have faith in me. In the second place, it involves that difficult process of knowing what you know so well that you can talk about it as you can talk about your ordinary business. Aman can always talk about his own business. He can always make it plain; but if his knowledge is hearsay he is afraid to go beyond what he has recollected and put it before those that are ignorant in such a shape that they shall comprehend it That is why, to be a good elementary teacher, to teach the elements of any subject requires most carelul consideration if you are a master of the subject, and if you are not a master of it, it is needful you should familiarize yourself with so much as you are called upon to teach--soak yourself in it, so to you know itas part of your daily life and daily knowledge, and then you will be able to teach anybody. That is what I mean by practical teachers, and although the deficiency is beiog remedied to a large extent, I think it is one which has long existed, and which has existed from no fault of those who undertook to teach, but because until within the last score of years it absolutely was not possible for any one in a great many branches ol science, whatever his desire might be, to get instruction which would enable him to be a good teacher of elementary things All that 18 being rapidly altered and I hope it will soon become a thing of the past--Prof.

BILL FOB RECEIVER DISMISSED A Mortgage for on the Maryland Central R. W. Filed. In the United States Circuit Court, Judge Bond presiding, the bill of Cyrus Diller vs. the Maryland Central Railroad Company, for the appointment of a receiver of the Company was ou Saturday, by order of the court, at the instance of ex-Judge Grason, counsel for complainant, dismissed.

The ex-judge said he would proceed against the company in another way. The counsel for the company ex-judge Gilmore, Charles E. Fendall, Henry W. Archer and R. R.

Boarman, who were present, were taken somewhat with surprise at the dismissal. There was filed on Saturday, in the Superior Court for record, a mortgage deed from the Maryland Central Railroad Company to George S. Brown and William W. Spence as trustees, of its whole line of railway and road to Delta, forty-four miles in length, with all its property, to secure the payment of coupon bonds to the amount of or before the 1st of July, The bonds, three hundred in number, are for the sum of $1,000 each, bearing interest at six per payable semi-aunually in January and July of each year. The money to be received from the sale of the bonds is to be expended in completing the construction and equipment of the road from Baltimore to Delta.

William W. Waters, president, signed the deed on the part of the company and Messrs. Brown and Spence on their own behalf as trustees. The sum of 120,000 was received by this transaction and the work of building the unfinished part of the road will be rapidly pushed forward. A locomotive wiil be shipped to Delta, by way of the Northern Central and Peach Bottom, to facilitate work at this end of the line.

The Baltimore Sun of says "Mr. Wm. H. Waters, president, and other officials yesterday, on behalf of the Maryland Central Company, contracted with the McCabe Bros, for the construction of the road from Belair to Delta. Work will be pushed vigorously from both ends.

The company have ordered two new passenger engines, which will be placed upon the road as soon as the Baldwin works can furnish them." From Fort NIobrara.

EDITOK commencement exer- of liic cidbs ui' 63 ol Lafayette College began with the baccalaureate address on Sun- clay morning by president Caltell. His text was "Christ and him Crucified." After the earnest sermon he delirered his parting address to the young men of the graduating class. In these last words to "his he announced his determination to withdraw from the presidency of the College. It was feared that he would take the step, for hist January in his annual report to the board of trustees he had intimated such a purpose. Almost breathless attention was accorded him last Sunday and few eyes were barren of tears, for Dr.

Cattcll has wrought his life into Laiayeite College and shattered health now compels him to take complete and continued rest. Who tan succeed him At 4 p. m. on Sunday Ret. L.

Shearer of New York, delivered the scim-ccntennial address before the Brainerd Missionary Society. At 7:30 p. Rev. Chas. Mills addressed the Christian Brotherhood upon Chinese missions.

Mr. Mills has been a missionary to China for the last 90 years. As soon as the clock struck twelve on San. duy night, the loud and prolonged ringing of the great college bell forbade continued sleep. The mysterious movements and queer apparel of Sophomores gave abundant reason to con.

elude that eome hideous deed of darkness was about to illumine the history of Lafayette. Hastening to the campus, I found that Calculus, the ancient and seemingly indestructible enemy of Sops, was about to suffer the penalty of causing the class of so uneasi. ness and inconvenience. The programme of the several proceedings of annihilat'on through which poor Calculus was about to pass, had the following title trial and burning of ye foule Wizarde Kalkulus by ye Sophomores in ye College Poor Calculus was put into a common wagon which was drawn by a horse in the midst of a procession through the principal streets of KaBton. "Ye order of Ye Solemnu Progresse to Ye Place of Execution" was (1) Ye Knight of Baton; (2) Ye players upon Yc horns Ye cymbals, Ye drums, and alle manner of worldlie instruments (3) Ye Acolyte (4) His Holiness, Cardinal Porteriu De La Stan, hope (5) Ye Fathers of Church, Ye Holie Freres of Orders Grave, Who sojourne in Bast Holley Abbaye.

Af. tcr Calculus had undergone the disgrace of this procession a trial was instituted upon the plan of the Spanish Inquisition. He was slandered, vilified, maligned, tortured, behead.

ed, burned and his ashes scattered to "Yc wings of Calculus is again dead but i doubt not he will terrorize the class of '86, for already his "spook is stalking Calculus had solemn warning of his latest cremation, for on Saturday night two hundred bills were posted here and there over Easton containing 'these night, Calculus, thy Soul shall be required of thee." An old lady finding one of these bills upon her doorstep took it to be the announcement of the coming of a destroying angel and began to think of besprinkling her door-post with blood. Although much terrified for a time, she has listened to friendly explanation. On Monday afternoon we were treated to the Class Day proceedings. I will mention only the memorial and presentation speeches. The class of has taken a.

new departure in the matter of memorials Usually a tree is planted, a stone erected, or something is given to the equipments or adornments of the college. But the class of'83 remembering that trees decay and fall, and that marble crumbles to dust, have established a prize for proficiency in the slndv of "French on Words." As your readers doubtless presentation oration is an exercise in which the peculiar habits and whims of some or all mem. bers of the class are made the ground of an appropriate present. This speech was dcliv. creel by Mr.

has a philosophic sense of the redicu. lous and his presents to his classmates were accompanied by remarks the reasons for which were told by the articles given. To a young man whose usual excuse for absence from chapel was a cradle was given. "The infant of the class" received a nursing bottle. "The fat a small corsel and a bottle of anti-fat; the noisy man, a tin horn six feet long; the deacon, a large white tie the grandmother, a night cap, a pair of spectacles and a knitting.

To a young man from Albany, a stick of taffy was given for evident reasons. To a young man from Ohio, Mr. Phipps felt obliged to give a potato- masher, expressing the hope that the object of his depredations in future would be different from what it had been at college. To a young man from West who had been less successful in the "mashing" line than his Buckeye copartner, a large mitten was given. A number of the class entered college during the senior year.

He was supposed to possess a considerable amount of the ingredients and characteristics which graduates had, three years before leaving college, kid aside. Of course, ho left the stage carrying a bag ol salt. Many other suggestive presents were given, but I have already taken too much of your space At p. of the same began the promenade concert under the auspices of the senior class. The evening was delightful and at least thousand people were on the campus.

The music furnished by the (Jcr- mania orchestra of Philadelphia. The pro- gramme was made up of selections from such noted authors as Strauss, Leutner, Waldten. fel, Wagner, Sullivan and Wcingarten. The immense audience was delighted, for the music rendered ft'jth that dashing brilliancy for which the Gcrmania is noted. It was o'clock before the ending of the programme allowed the great throng to descend the hill.
