Soon it will be time to send out blanks
for the report of every Treasurer and
Secretary of the several school districts.
Have all the Secretaries of the districts
reported the officers of the school
boards, as the law directs, since the
March elections? If any Secretary has
neglected this, the blanks for his dis
trict may be sent to the wrong persons,
and delay in the work be occasioned
by such neglect. Any changes that may
have occurred in the officers of the
board, should be reported. If any one
has neglected to make the reports, it is
not too late, if attended to Immediately.

An educated people have the art of
working both with their hands and with
their brains, and they may be trusted
to take care of themselves. It will be
found that, as . rule, education never

THE other Sunday our neighbor
Pease's little three years old daughter
learned at Sunday school the text, Il
am the bread of life." The next day
she surprised her mother, and showed
her idea Of tense by reciting it, II was a
loaf of bread"

We are very sorry that Miss De Sell
lem, who was to conduct model pri-
mary department in connection with the
Normal, finds herself unable to come,
and at so late an hour that Supt. Parker
is unable to find a substitute. Very
many of the teachers regret that this
department has to be given up.

"What is the difference" asked the
teacher in arithmetic, between one yard
and two yards?" "A fence" said Tom
my Gray. Then Tommy sat on the ruler
seven times.

A Thrillin g Tale

Chance placed a copy of one the East
ern sensation story papers in Our hand
the other day We are not in the
habit of reading such trash, as gen
eral thing. but somehow or another
our eyes lit on the beading Of a new
story and curiosity prompted us TO read
a portion of the opening chapter, which
ran thus:
"Tallida stood in vault beneah the
house, with a blazing torch in her
fair hand. Abnve her. in the splendid
chambers of the noble caravansary, 9
thousand INSCRIPTIONS human beings
were wrapped in slumber. Around her
lay a score of barrels Of gunpowder.
Should she embrace this opportunity
to revenge the wrong Of her race upon
the hated Giaour: She did not long
hesitate. Touching the flaming torch
to slow match, she retired. There
was silence for moment; dull thud;
then a CHASTITY light lit the midnight
sky, and all the sleepers slept the sleep
Of death"
We do not profess to be much OF q
Judge Of stories; but this one seems to
open pretty well. We cannot recon-
mend it cordially to Sunday schools, OF
course; but for simple little tale to
cheerahe family circle. and scare q
superstitious hired girls hair up on
end, we think it might do. We fore
see no difficulty, however. II the story
continues many chapters, and the auth
or has slaughter Of this kind in
every paragraph or two, he will have
killed off the population of the whole
earth before he concludes. This. 1t
seems to ms, is to be guarded against.
Some few people must be left alive, or
everybody will know that the tale
has 10 foundation III fact.

The vote was greeted with applause
on the democratic side of the house.
Mr.. Butler, Of Massachusetts,, voted
in the affirmative with the democrats.
The following democrats voted with
the republicans in the negative: Messrs.
Cutler, Hartridge, Herbert, Henry,
Potter, Rca, Stenger, Walsh and Will
liams, (Dell Gambler, democrat, who
would haye voted in the negative, was
absent and paired Jones, Of Alabama,
who yesterday voted in favor Of seating
Field, said he did SO because he
thought that according to Massachusetts
laws he was entitled to the seat, but the
house having decided against that view
of the law on this resolution seating
Dean, he would vote aye. Mr.. Dean was
then sworn in, taking the iron-clad oath.
Mr.. Harrison desired to call up the
report of the committee on civil service

lord Beaconsfeld) would disappear
from the scene, while Derby would re-
main to take the leading part in public
affairs. He was sustained at the pres
ent moment by the confidence that the
policy of the government, recommend
ei to her ma; 2sty, would tend to the
maintenance Of her empire, of the
freedom Of Europe and the security Of
the country. The opposition, in the all.
sence of definite information, abstained
from raising any discussion for the
present.
THE PERILoUs SITUATION.
A Londo"s correspondent telegraphs
under date OF March 2Sth, that no hope
of the meeting of the congress is now
left, and there seems to be no means of
estimating what will be the outcome
from the present diplomatic muddle.
Gen. Ignatiefl's visit to Vienna shows
the evident intention of Russia
to conciiate Austria, but it is
questionable whether Hungary can
be induced to recognize the treaty of
San Stefano until important alterations
have been made in its provisions.
Your Vienna correspondent states that
Ignatief has failed to secure Count
Andrassy's consent TO the plan proposed
by Russia, and that there are rumors
there that Andrassy is about to
yield to Hungarian influence, and
openly oppose Russia. Ru-
mors, however, are numberless,
not only in Vienna, but in every other
great capital, and it is impossible to
obtain any certain information as to
what will be the next direction which
affairs will take. 1t is certain that Eng
land and Russia have now reached the
most critical part of their intercourse,
and there is more probability of war
than peace. Russia is making every
effort to isolate England from the other
Powers, and, if she can obtain the nell-
trality of Austria and Hungary, it is
not likely that England can get any
other ally. Even Turkey is likely to
be more favorable toward Russia than
towards England, and the Grand Duke
Nicholas is paying frequent visits to
the Sultan. AS soon as Gen.
Ignatieff arrives III Constantinople
direct negotiations for il be-
nevolent neutrality, if not an actual al
lance, will begin. Of course, this is
not the first time that Russia ana Eng
land have been nearly involved i'll war,
and, as heretofore, peaceful solution
of the difficulties may yet be found.
But the present crisis is decidedly worse
than any of its predecessors, and it is
quite probable that both nations may
find war less intolerable than continual
uncertainty and alarm.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1878-04-05

Poor kato Chxton, who has had her
full share Of misfortuncs, is now
charged with Nh attempt to dcfraud her
creditors, who met to prove their
claims and appoint IN assignee recent
ly. AT the meeting Mr.. G. ID. Rust, the
attorney for the creditors, objected to
the claim of Spencer III. Cone for 81
900, on the alleged ground that the
claim was wholly fictitious and was con-
eocted between Miss Cnxton and Mr..
Cone, in view of her intended COM
mencement of proceedings in bank
ruptcy Owing to the lady's profession
nj engagements, she was not present to
defend her good name, and the argu-
mcnt in the ease will be deferred until
shc can be examined.
