when conscience breaks down liquor

The Rev. T. B. Craig cited D. R. Locke

The resolution "that in the sense Of

THE HALEY SCHOOL FIND.
1t Will be In Worse Condition This Year
Than It was Last,

There is already some inquiry among
parents as to when the public school
will open in HALEY. This will prob
ably depend upon the revenue or
money apportioned to the district
fund. There is little or nothing in
that fund at present; but during the
next two months it will get the bulk
of its yearly income. And on this it
is possible to speculate.
Last year, with 3O1 children of
school age reported, the sum of g..
190.67 was apportioned to the Haley
school fund during October and No.
vember. This year, there being but
1913 children reported lowing to the
creation of other districts in this
neiyhborhood, and to the misunder-
standing about our limits), the appro-
priation will be one-third less, or
about $3.50. The monthly apportion.
ments from fines, gambling licenses,
etc, will probably swell this sum up
TO 81, 200 or 81, 300.
This amount, then ISL ,3o0), is about
all that can be depended on by the
HALEY trustees to conduct the school
for the current year until next sum-
mer). By judicious management, and
a couple of school entertainments, this
may suffice to keep the school open,
with two teachers, for just about seven
months. If longer term is desired,
Il special tax will have to be levied.
Some taxpayers may hold to the
opinion that, as there is an increase
in the valuation of the taxable
property, there will be greater rev.
enue to the school fund this year,
than there was last year. But it
should be borne in mind that there has
been corresponding increase in the
number of children of school age IN
the county. Last year there were
l ,l56 of these, while this year there
are 1885. The increased valuation
will therefore hardly be felt by the
school fund.

Changes that Are Taking Place.

A gentleman gave beggar ten
cents for the express purpose of buying
u drink of whisky. A little later he
saw the beggar emerging from bake
shop with loaf of bread under his arm.
"You told me you wanted that
money for whisky" SAID the gentle
man.

"lf | had told you wanted it for
bread you wouldn't have given it to
me. The sympathy dodge is played
out and 'frankness' has taken its
place. People admire frankness.
Could you give me ten cents more?"

alley between Main street aud First
avenue, near Bullion street. Night
Waterman Connolly, ever on the alert,
fastened to the scene, where he met
Mrs. Cunningham with a revolver in
her hand, running toward Main street.
He escorted her to the county Jail,
where General Cunningham and AL.
Harris arrived, and explanations fol-

grew out OF political discussion over
the nominees for Sheriff

Harris with using ungentlemanly Ian.

General Cunningham called him

an hour later Cunningham and Harris
met in Oldham 4 Co.'S saloon, when
the former called the latter "a

Cunningham a blow in the face, when
the bystanders interfered and sepa.
rated them. Three hours later the
two men were seen drinking together;
so the difficulty is probably over.
Another and more reliable account
Of the rumpus in Oldham & Co.'S sa-
loon is as follows:
"Cunningham called Harris a foul
name, and said 1t was a cowardly act.
He added: Are you heeled p Harris

This afternoon General Cunning

Parsons said that, in consideration of
the plea, he would impose fine and
costs, for this time.

A Big Rotary Engine.

a contributor to the Glasgow Herald
declares that he has san idea" which
he thus elucidates: 1t is well known
Especially in the straits of Sunda) that
the earth is full of volcanic fires; that
fires viii drive steam-engines; and that
steam-engines will dig and excaYate.
My idea is to make use of these vol
canic fires to excavate. and mine the
whole earth at about 100 feet below
the surface, and so detach the crust
from the solid body. This feat ac-
complished, the engines could then be
used to set the crust rotating relatively
TO the earth in an opposite direction.
The daily revolution of the earth upon
its axis could then, as far as mortals
are concerned, be quite neutralized,
and, by judlcious management, we
could always face the sun, and thus
produce perpetual noon-day. The
economy in lighting would more than
compensate for any possible damage
we might have to pay the New Zealand
ers, who would never see the sun, and
we should have the increased growth
of cabbage and other vegetables to the
good. The moon and stars could not
be so well observed in this part of the
world, but that would be more than
compensated for by the continuous
observations which New Zealanders
could make.

Striking Expressions.

From the disenchantments men are
constantly meeting, it might be ex-
pected that ideality would die out of
the world; but fortunately for the race
OF mortals, fancy, no less than hope,
springs eternal in the human breast,
and we 60 on constructing unreal i'm
ages as persistently as if we had not
witnessed the demolition of myriads of
their predecessors. Perhaps in nothing
are our fancies more unlike the reality
than in the feelings we imagine to arise
in the minds of men in supreme mo-
mentS, the words we suppose heroes to
utter, the lofty sentiments we believe
inspired by those crises which try
men 5 souls. As a matter of prosaic
fact, the truth probably is that these
times which try mems souls find men
much the same that they are upon or
dinary occasions.
w. Clark Russell relates a converse
tion with a sailor who was wrecked on
the Godwins, in which, among other
things, he inquired:
'Did you encourage each other in
this awful situation?"
'Wel,n the tar replied, s'the cook at

striking or noble sentiment, "when the

Yca don't mean to say you imagine we

''What else can | imagine?n
'What grounds have you for imag-

Sir George laughed. ''Deuced affec-
tionate! Why, thought she was mad!
Don't be absurd. What else?"
why didn't you say what time you
were arrivingp What did you mean to
do before you came home?"
Not meet her, | assure you. Who
is she?"
'.Frank Valery's wife,
''Then take me over, and introduce
me to her and apologize And another
time don't choose lady to insult when
you are jealous.
Lady Lynx stood irresolute. She
knew Sir George was in the right and
she felt he was speaking the truth.
AND as she looked at Mrs. Valery and
the Russian IS they stood talking to-
gether she saw that she had made
mistake amateur detectives are apt to
fall into. She had too readily con-
cluded that Mrs. Valery was telling a
made-up story She saw that there
was nothing TO be done but apologize.
But she could not bring herself to doit.
At that moment Mrs. Valery turned
round, and meeting Lady Lynx's look
OF mingled emotions, she smiled. Her
sense of humor had come uppernost.
After al she could afford to forgive
Lady Lynx; her enemy was SO very
plain.
'You must both come and dine with
us, she said by way of answer.
Frank will be delighted to see Sir
George; | know they are old friends.
You must-the count is coming"
Sir George made haste to accept this
invitation. After dinner Mrs. Valery
told the story of the scheme in the cof-
fee room, making but one change in it
she left out Lady Lynx's unfortunate
speech. Everybody laughed, even Lady
Lynx herself.
And so Mrs. Valery disarmed bit
ter enemy aud made new ally. For
Sir George became one of her faithful
admirers and Lady Lynx had to put up
with it, whether she liked it or not
