February 3, for the bemifit of Timothy. Kenfield. .The procee is hare to be used to send Kenfleld to his relatives m Ohio. This ™ght bea proper case for the county commis- sioners to deal with.

Box 564, DOINGS IN DISTRICT COURT Judge McC rented adjourned court | yesterday afternoon and this morning he left for Brainerd. One of the important cases at- tracted considerable attention was in the matter of Spear, couuty attorney. | against James A. Stuart. “This was a similar case to that of Spear against, the Herald-Review. The board of county commissioners had allowed a billin the sum of $200 in favor of Mr. Stuart for the printing of primary ballots. Spear was a political enemy of Mr. Stuart and filed a protest against the payment of the clam. ‘The jury gave a verdict in favor of $185 with interest trom September and costs of the case. It cost Itasca couuty about two hundred and fifty dollars to satisfy Spear’s spite. The case ot Gordon vs. Sheriff Hoolhhan resulted 1a a verdict for the defendant, In the divorce case of Walsh vs" Walsh there was no appearance by, the plaintiff and the action was dis- missed. . In the Everton and MeWilliains appeal ‘cases there were stipulations entered into. In the first it was agreed that Everton and, Magnuson would do some further work on the road for constructing whieh they sought to recover from the couuty. ‘The stipulation in the McWilhams case provided that the county would dismiss the appeal as soon as a cer- tain road contract had been furnished, thus givihg the county a right of way.

A device for suppressing sound and smoke has been provided for the ordi- | nary rifle by a French soidier. It con- | sists essentially of a steel tube about thirty inches long, with several parti- ; tions having orifices slightly larger, than the bore of a gun, and this tube’ is attached ia the front of the muzzle of a bayonet clasp whenever its-use is desired. On firing the gun the gases are retarded by each pantition in turn, finally escaping without sound or smoke. With a knife at the end the xuxiliary tube can be made to serve as a Bayonet. Chinese Fish Hatcheries. Those ever-ingenious people, the Chi- nese, are great at fish farming, and one of their little uw.dges for hatching young fish is most ingenious. Taking a fresh egg they suck the contents through a tiny hole and refill the egg with the tiny eggs of the fish they want-to hatch. The hole is then sealed up and the egg placed under a sitting hen. In a very few days the fish ova are so ‘far advanced that one has only to break the shell into mod- erately warm water and the little fish spring to life at once. - Historic House to Be Sold. York house, Twickenham, England, is now in the market, and will be sold at auction soon. It was named after James Il., when duke uf York, and in it were born two princesses, Mary and Anne, who béth afterward became queens of England. The house, standing in beautiful grounds on the banks of the Thames, has many his- torical association and, according to tradition, Lord Clarendon wrote some ‘of his essays in the garden walks. Italy’s Macaroni Industry. Italy has some 5,5€0 macaroni fac tories employing nearly 25,000. A number of these factories are large, using improved machinery and steam power. The total annual output of macaroni exceeds 215,000 tons. It is &@ growing industry. The local con- sumption, as well as the exports, in- crease steadily. The exports of maca- roni in 18$9 were 7,719 tons; in 1900, 8,898 tns; in’ 1901, 9,673 tons; in 1902, 11,322 tons; and in 1903 (eight months), 13,126 tons. Nearly ov per cent of the above experts went to the United States. \ . ss “There is a cause the drink hab- ‘tt which even good Christian Parents | do not understand,” says a writer in| ‘What to Hat. “They cannot realize why their children, with beautiful sur- .roundings and- daily Christian influ- ences, sometimes, go far astray, be- coming sadly immoral, and in many instances drunkards. When they, as well as many of the physicians, shalt haxe exhausted all other efforts to lo ate the cause of the trouble, let them look to the stomach—the poor, abused stomach—and they will, in all proba- bility, find the source of the evil. From infancy many of the little ones aré given faod beyond the capacity of their digestive organs. AS soon as several teeth have appeared, meats are frequently a part of thé bill. of fare, hese, as well as the other ar- ticles of food, are necessarily swal- lowed without proper mastication. Pepper, mustard, sauce, vinegar and highly seasoned salads also find their way into these young and tender stomachs until, as the result of such a diet, fermentation sets in and a little distillery is created in these youthful. temples. Under such conditions a child becomes irri- table, quick tempered, untruthful, and it-would be surprising if it grew up to noble manhood. PREPARE FOR LONG FASTS. Nature Takes-Good Care of Animats That Hibernate. A large number of species of ani- mals undergo more or less prolonged and continuous fasts during the pe- riod of their winter or summer sleep. During such slumbers the more active functions of the body are to a great extent suspended, while those that are carried on act slowly and entail com- paratively little waste of tissue and energy. of the winter torpor or hibernation takes place, many animals, such as bears, accumulate large stores of fat on various parts of the body, which suffice to supply all the waste entailed by the respiratory function during the period in question. Fat is also ac eumulated by the mouselemurs of Madagascar previous to the summer sleep, or aestivation, and is used up in a similar manner, their summer sieeps being undertaken fcr the pur- pose Of avoiding the season of great heat and drought, when food is dif- ficult or impossible to procure. “An Sin, Esquire.” By way of corroborating my view that the title “Esquire” is utterly de void of. meaning, one of my readers mentions that in Singapore, where ke has resided for n years, it is not only universally bestowed en every white man, but also upon. the wealthier Chinese and Asiatics. “Ah Sin, Esq.,” looks and sounds well. It will surely lend an additional attrac- tion to life in a Rand mine or com- pound when the Celestial knows that the wealth he amasses out cf kis “av- erage minimum” wage will entitle him to such a designation. He could not get a peacock’s feather or a, yellow jacket at home for anything like +he price.—Londgn Truth. Grouse Has Many Defénses. The grouse has a hundred tricks c! defense: It will lie still until the hunter is within a yard of it, then soar straight upward in his front, towering like a woodcock; again,’ it will rise forty yards away, and the sound of its wings is his only notice of its pres- ence. It will cower upon a branch under which be passes, ‘and hés cap will not be more than a foet below it as he goes, and though it has seen him approaching it will remain quies- cent in fear until his back is turned. It will rush then, and when he has slewed himself hurriedly around he will catch only a glimpse of a brown, broad wing far away. One of Corea’s Superstitions. Near the city of Seoul, the capital of Corea, is a hill called Pouk Han, which was formerly covered with trees. The legend runs that so'long as a tree remained on the hill so long will Corea maintain its independence, and therefore no one is allowed to cut or touch a tree. But the natural consequence of this want of forestry has been that the trees have gradually died off, until now only one is left. On this one tree it is believed that the fate of the country rests, and when it goes Corea as an independent state will go with it. My Queen, I did not know I had a friend : So near, by chance to save; It seemed my fortune here must end, Just plundered by a knave. Her back was turned, I knew her not In my perplexity. Yet she was there to spoil the plot Of my arch enemy. And when I saw her regal face Appear upon the scene. ~ Victorious champion of my case, I hailed her as my queen. - “There may be those of higher rank, yf greater worth than she, t now the queen of trumps I thank— She took the trick for me. —New Yorker. Counted His Grandmother. When some surprise was expressed that a small boy should prefer to go for a summer outing to the sleepy yil- lage where Nis mother lived as a little girl, instead of to the seashore with its “attractions,” the little fellow re plied: “I count my grandmother.” Jn the plans of many families at this season of the year “counting ‘the grandmother” plays an important part, Her welcome arms form for the child “the first line of reserves,” to yse.a piilitary phrase.—Youth’s Comnsazign.
