On the Island of Jersey, when a man
in the possession of land begins to make
any alterations thereon which do not
suit THE owner, or any other person
whose interest is affected thereby, the
aggrieved one enters the premises,
kneels. and cries aloud: ''HdrO, Hare,
q l'aide, noa prince; on me fit tort!!''
Thereupon, as required by law, all the
workmen are bound to quit the place
and stay away until the dispute may be
settled i'm court.

In II part of the country there are
some people awfully mystified by the
occurrence of a shower of hay, and
some hundreds of miles distant the
people are grumbling terribly that the
whirlwind should come just as their hay
was cut.

NEWSPAPERS IL SCHOOLS.

Just before the close Of the last

troduced the Chicago Inter
Ocean" as sort of tcxt book In
his school. and went into raptures
over the result. The scholars in
becoming acquainted with the news
Of the day.. interested themselves
in al the appurtenances, and geo.
Uraphy and history were eagerly
studied in order to throw light on
what the newspaper told them.
And the one aided the other. A
dull fact of geography as to the
location Of, for instance, the island
OF Formosa became pregnant with
ideas, when the telegraph reported
the danger of Japan and China
going into war on its account,
while the account of Carlist sue
cess or defeat involved the history
II the Spanish peninsula for half
century past to be rightly compre-
hended. We expect to see the day
when school visitors will find the
pupils diligently discussing the
news of the day derived from
newspapers left by carriers at the
doors OF our institutions of learn
ing.-[ Owyhse Avalanche.
This regulation. or one very sim
liar, was some three years ago in
troduced into the public schools Of
the higher grades in the State Of
New York, and has proven Of
almost incalculable benefit to the
scholars. In those schools, each
scholar is required to write out and
present to the Principal of the
school, each Friday, a summary of
the most important foreign and
domestic news Of the week, with
editorial" remarks upon the most
prominent topics of the press. By
this method, not only is greater
interest in geography and history
manifested by the scholars, but
they are kept thoroughly CONVEX
SAINT with the political and financial
stains Of the country, the. changes
in State administration, and the
many demonstrations of the Pres
idential Cabinet. The writer was
not little astonished, while con-
versing with 16-year old school
girl in New York, two years ago,
to ind the young lady as thorough
~ conversant with political, finan-
cial and general topics Of the New
York press, as if she was then
taking an active part in educative
journalism. The young lady in
formed us that the perusal and
summarizing Of the important
news of the day was considered
her pleasantest and most interest
ing study. A general adoption of
the system in Nevada would. we
believe, be very desirable, and
prove Of much benefit to the older
scholars in our public schools.

Nor A BAD IDEA.-An English
journal says that a decidedly novel
invention has been suggested during
the last few days. 1t is to afiix lamps
to the telegraph poles by the side Of
the railways, and enable the telegraph
operators at the nearest station to
light them by electricity whenever
there is danger on the road, the idea
being that as soon rs the driver OF a
train saw these lights burning he
would bring his engine to a stand
still and remain standing until he
received instructions to proceed. How
would it work on the c. P. and V. &

LATE NEWS SUMMARY.

Gen. Custer is to lead another column
of thousand men into the Black Hills and
beyend this summer, to make sure about the
gold, stir up the Indians, and drive out the
miners.
Two vessels loaded with wheat, after
trying a week to find or force an entrance into
Buffalo harbor through the ice, have returned
to Chicago. 1t is said the ice is closely packed
ten miles out from the former port, and it may
be June before any water craft can enter.
The muskets furnished to the Indians
in trade by the Hudson Bay company are of
the old flint lock pattern, the barrels being SO
thin that the owners are often seen straight
ening them across their knees. Perhaps this
is one reason why the company which rules
the greater area Of British America has no
trouble with its Indians.
Some months ago DR.. Cole, of Van
Wort, o., was put off a train between Perrys-
burgh and Toledo, on the Dayton and Michi-
gan road, because he refused to pay more
than the legal fare, three cents per mile. He
brought suit against the company for $5, 900
damages, which resulted in his favor last
week, the jury awarding him So, 500.
The Kansas City Times has informa-
ton that grasshoppers are doing great damage
in Western Missouri. Many fields Of wheat are
totally destroyed, as well as Of corn, the
grasshOppers going down to the roots.
About Kansas City they are bIackening the
fences and eating up grass and garden plants
They are moving in northwestern direction.
and as they cannot fly, many suppose they
will destroy themselves by hopping into the

more so than at any time since the panic.

An article has appeared in the Figaro
suggesting that the revenge Of France be

it.
The Roman Catholic bishops of Rus
sia, who addressed petition to the emperor
| received a reply last month from the minister
OF state, have made the rejoinder that, to re-

formity with all proper decisions of the state
! government.
