Circuit Court.
of Chippewa Falls.

The Circuit Court, Judge Bar
ron presiding, convened on Tuesday
at the Court House for the October
term, and on Thursday adjourned
sine die. There was but little bust
ness before the Court, the most OF
which was disposed of on Tuesday,
so that little need existed for further
prolonglng the term, which was
only done at the request of the
District Attorney, who wished to
give the county officers against
whom complaints had been brought.
an opportunity to settle amicably,
which request was very consider
ately granted by the Court. BY
Thursday the accused county Off
GERS had settled their matters salts
tactorily to the Board of Superyis-
ors and the District Attorney, and
the latter officer accordingly entered
a nOAe prOSequi in the suits against
County-Treasurer Bardon, County
Clerk Cournoyer and James 5.

That Bardon, the Treasurer, on
Oct. Sd paid one creditor $63I.25
and others $3.50; and that Cour

Complaint for wrongful issue of

tion granted.
State against James 5. Richie.
Complaint for wrongful acts as
Chairman Of the Board Of Super

Discipline mt Annapolis.

Several young men have been expelled
from the Academy at Annapolis because
.they will not tell who did it." In the
theory of discipline their act is an offence;
in the theory of schoolboys the world over
their act is one Of generous devotion and
lofty virtue. Is there any theory or any
line of conduct on which these two con be
reconciled? Evidently not. 1t is not pos
sible ut school any more than elsewhere in
the world to run with the hare and hunt
with the hounds at the same time Persons
responsible for the good order and discipline
of colleges of every grade have pretty we'll
made up their minds that some old-fash-
ioned but one-sided and rufiianly sports of
the students must be stopped and that
resolution is SO evidently just that oil rea-
sonable steps which may be deemed neces-
sary to give it effect must be regarded rs
good. The supremacy of order in an institu-
ton of learning is of more consequence
than the fate of half dozen students and
if practical jokes of q bnrbarous nature can
be stopped anywhere they may be certainly
in school where the relation of pedagogue
and pupil is assimilated by the nature of
the case to that of officer and soldier. But
we would simply call attention to peculiar,
practical result in this case. Here are some
scores of gentlemen who may be called upon
in the future to serve the country in battle,
and we should stimulate in them the gen.
erous and gallant qualities of human ma
ture But what do we do? There are two
groups, tho-e who are found out and those
who are not. To defend those who
are not found out, and who are COM

The weather.

Yesterdays biting cold and early morning
snow took New York fairly by surprise. The
genial warmth of Saturday gave promise of
continuance of the delightful Indian summer
weather which paints the landscape with such
o variety of glorious colors and renders the
atmosphere clear and bracing for out door
sports. But as we announced some weeks
ago, the winter was striding toward us from
his home in the bleak North, and already
the left wing of his army of frost and snow
sprites covered the regions northward into
Canada. Yesterdays cold and snow are but
his advanced guard, giving us warning of
his dread approach; for winter is, unhappily,
always dreadful to vast number of our
people. The rain and snow area extended
from Washington, D. c., northeastwardly
over the Middle and Eastern States and the
British provinces, also embracing the lower
lake region. The sheltered position Of New
York protects us in large degree from the
influences of the area of high pressure
now moving enthusiastically over the Mis-
sissippi and Ohio valleys; but, while we es-
capped much of the rain and snow, tho cold
winds reached US in the shape of thirty
two mile gale. The pressure to the west-
ward, although still high, is diminishing.
and is followed by q low area and higher
temperature. These changes will now sue
ceed each other rapidly. To-day the weather
in New York will be cold, followed by On in
crease of temperature and partial cloudi-
ness, with westerly to southwesterly and
southerly winds.

EnglisA Novelists In America.

Travel has become so easy that travellers
have nothing new to tell, and even books on
African regions which only few years ago
were marked elephants" on the maps are
becoming commonplace since Speke, Liv-
ingstone, Gordon and Stanley have revealed
their mysteries. The exploration of this
little planet is almost completed, and
travellers give less attention to geog-
raphy than to other branches Of
science. 1t is necessary now to describe the
fora and fauna and geology of country as
we'll MS its superficial features But the
novelist who visits strange countries is not
expected to enter profoundly into such sub
jects, for his special province of study is
mankind. We look in his works for char
acter and picturesque descriptions of society.
He does not visit America, for ex-
ample, to investigate its political in
stitutions in few weeks, as the
Count Smorltork did in England; but
if he reports at all it is upon manners and
national characteristics. We have had the
of crooked mirrors held up by such English
travellers as Trollope and Dickens; but the
reflection did not always seem .correct.
Whether Mr.. William Black, the cele-
brated novelist whose impressions of
American society and the Western
Territories are elsewhere given, in
tends to write a book about us we are not
informed, but it is to be hoped he will. The
author of "a Princess of Thule has
shown in all his books great perceptive
powers, discriminative humor, knowledge
of human nature, appreciation of character
and rare faculty of description. 1t is true
that his visit to the United States has been
too short to qualify him to judge of
our geology or our political condition,
and he is too sensible, we think, to touch
upon these profound subjects; but he has
the eye of novelist, and there are many
phases of American life which he might illus
tratc with freshness and truth. Let Mr..
Black put Boston and the prairies into his
next novel. We assure him that the Ameri-
con public, which has learned to admire his
works, will be glad to study itself in his un-
prejudiced descriptions.
