Hennepin COUNTY Public Schools.

The GLOBE has unfeigned pleasure in
quoting the following we'll merited compli-
ment to the schools of this county from the
Minnesota Journal Of Education, publish
ed at st. Paul, whose editor has been en-
gagged in institute work in various counties
of the state during the past three months
and is eminently qualified to Judge: "The
schools of Hennepin county are justly en-
titled to the high place generally accorded
them. 1t is notlderogstory to other coun.
ties to say that they have the best teachers
in the state. Supt. G. W Smith is live
and enthusiastic worker, and has succeed
ed in creating just pride and spirit of
progress in the schools of the county.
The system of grading is carried to the
best perfection possible and is Efficient -
1t may be said in addition to this that Mr.
Smith is the first western educator to in
augurate system of grading and organ
ization in the county schools and that the
experiment has proved so successful that
the state teachers association in conven-
ton assembled endorsed the plan and rec
commended it for adoption throughout the
state.

Too Mach Compassion.

Speaking of ex-senator Conkling's
quickness of mind during debate, John
F. Smyth said recently: ''Mr. Conkling
was equally swift of mind in replying to
those who were rash enough to question
him in political meetings. I remember
that when he was young man he was once
interrupted during speech at Utica by a
fellow who bawled out: ''Do you want me
to marry black wench?" Conkling pre-
tended not to hear the remark distinctly,
and said with great politeness of manner:
evil the gentleman who asked me ques-
ton have the kindness to come forward
and repeat it?" The Republicans who
were present cried out: "Turn him out,
turn him out" ''Oh, no, don't turn him
out; I'm sure the gentleman asked some
question which deserves a reply; let him
come forward" said Conkling. So they
pushed the fellow forward to the middle of
the hall, where he pulled out his chest and
said defantly: "Do you want me to marry
a black woman?" Conkling looked the
man over carefully for about three min
Ites. II was so silent that you could have
heard a pin drop. Then he said with a
drawl: ''Do I want you to marry black
woman? No, can't say that dol have
too much compassion for the black wom-

a Singular. Phenomenon


Our attention has been called to a very
singular phenomenon connected with the
residence of Mrs. D. S. Sigler. The house
itself is one of the finest and most COM
modlous In Southwest Iowa, having cost
$4,000, and has every modern conven-
lence attached to it. The roof is composed
OF slate, the structure of brick. It is
warmed by Paige heater and lighted by
gas. 1t will be remembered by our read
ers that Mrs. Sigler had been quite sick
for the past six weeks. It was during one
OF the visits OF the family physician, DR.,
Newell, OF this city, in attempt to give
his patient medicine from a spoon, that
sparks OF tire were emitted. This led to a
further examination, and finger pointed
at or near the chandeliers would produce
the same result; in short, it was discovered
that the entire house, in all parts, was a
| complete galvanic or electric battery.
The effect was felt in all the rooms, and
the same result could be accomplished
upon the person of any one.
1t is explained upon no known scientific
principle as yet, but is supposed to be
| caused by the generation of electricity
through the heating apparatus, which ex-
tends from the basement to all parts of
the house. 1t is supposed that this cleo
| trio condition of affairs has in great
measure contributed to the 2rostration OF
Mrs. Sigler, and measures will be taken at
once to have scientific examination made
of the difficulty, and if found in the sup
posed heating apparatus, the same will be
removed and steam substituted. There is
certainly nothing in the location of the
property that produces such result; un-
less it be that the house is situated upon
some kind of bed of metal or iron ore
