Wednesday ning, Nov. 20th, The circle was pected, and she was glad to find the members loyal freshments were served at the close of of the meeting and the visit was en- joyed by all.

Fire destroyed the passenger station of the Duluth, Missabe & Northern, used by the citizens of Coleraine and Bovey, shortly before midnight last night. The fire started in the freight end of the station and was burning rapidly when discovered. Much baggage and express wes destroyed and the station is nearly a total. loss. The damage is estimated at about $3,000. The ongin of the fire is unknown. There was no stove near its inception and officials do not know what cause to ascribe for the confla- gration. The Mesaba had planned to build a new station for Coleraine nearer town and it is hkely that. the destruction of the old building will hasten the construction of the new. and true. Re-| Thief Remembered Companions. Aimerigos Tetenoire, an old French thief, had a band of 500 men under him and owned two castles in Limou- sin and Auvergne and bequeathed a fortune in the following terms: “I give.and bequeath 1,500 francs ($300) to St. George’s chapel for such repairs as it may need; ‘to my ‘sweet girl, who has so loyally loved me, 2,500 francs ($500), amd the surplus I give to my companions. Let them/scramble for it and may the devil seize the hind- most!” . Too Late With His Offer. Mrs. White, a widow who lives in Natick, Mass., tells of an old deacon || who had recently lost his wife. Com- ing to her one day, he said: “Han- nah, something told me to come here and ask you to be my wife. I think it must have been the Lord.” “Oh, no,” the widow replied quickly, “it couldn’t have been the Lord, deacon, for he got here before you, ard told me not to have you.” Royal Ornithologist. _ Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria is a distinguished ornithologist and his knowledge of the science of birds is equaled by very few in Europe. He devotes a good deal of time to the subject and is a member of the Ornt thological Society of Vienna. “pst 30, 1906 the. Italian. government issued 148,008 passports for emigrants to the Uni- ted States, buy we received 221,749 in the fiscal year 1905 and more in 1906. All of these did not come from Italy. Deposits in Italian banks show that $8,000,000 a year is sent to Italy by emigrants, many of whom intend to return to their native country. Con- sul Panl Nash of Venive says that | when it seemed probable that illiter- ates would be denied entrance to the United States night schools were opened in Italy for the benefit of emi- grants, but when the prospect of such legislation vanished the schools were closed. . Valuable Eggs. The enormous value attaching to | the eggs of birds which have become dent that has befallen the specimen of the great auk, which constitutes one of the treasures of the Scarbor- ough museum.

It was a peculiarity of the late Balduin Mollhausen that in nearly al: his novels the scene is placed partly fm Germany, partly in America. He ‘was extremely prolific, his stories and travel sketches making up nearly two huudred volumes. He spent man) years in the western prairies and th< Rocky mountains before he became librarian at Potsdam. To the last he kept his enthusiasm for the west. He left to a Berlin museum four albums containing pictures of America, “as one who will ever again see it.” extinct has been recalled by the acci- | By some meanis or ; { 'GRAND RAPIDS” - ‘Dr. costELLo It is flattering to our self-esteem to find that we are paying ¢ tuition an aggregate sum nearly equal to half the ecst of the national gcvernment, but | when this is reducei to an average it will be found that our generosity gives less than labore.s’ wages to the instructors of our children.

Whence the Name “Tiger.” It is reported that when the prince of Wales shot a tiger in India awhile ago, the beast charged him at full speed. In so doing ‘the tiger was de ing its best to live up to the name or its kind. Tigers are so called because of the swiftness of their movement, especially in springs, pon pres. “tighri” being the oid Persian word for an arrow. Hence it comes about that the beast and thw River Tigrts have the same nama ‘There is ne direct connection between them, but in both cases their swiftness was the characteristic that impressed the early me givers. The tiger’s name is thas. perhaps, nearly as superior in nobility to the hyena’s, as the one beast is to the other, since fra ge © is merely Gre-":. for “sow.” to $16.50, “Princeton’’ our shelves.
