NICHE.
The sensation of the week in Neche
was the gathering for the prize fight on
Tuesday. There were about 200 present
to witness the fight which was to come
of ut o'clock. McKeown had been in
training for three weeks, Goldsmith was
on hand and everything was in readi-
ness The affair had created considerable
discussion in the town, many severely
deprecating the whole thing and regard
ing it us rcproacll to tho town. How
ever, there was good sized crowd OIL
hand early, when 10! Sheriff Dick APP
pcarcd on the scene with look of deter.
mination in his face that boded i'll for the
sluggen. The sheriff kept that game leg
OF his on lively gait as he made circuit
of the town, posting notices of warning
headed Eight Prohibited" Meeting
McKeown lie handed him notice, say
ing ;" Read aud Learn" Some of the
promoters of the affair urged the sheriff
to allow soft glove contest, but Dick
declared that he was Gas hard as iron /"
and would listen to nothing of the kind.
Then a good many of them, one after
another, wanted the sheriff to "take q
little 81 few glasses might be beneficial
after his cool ride from Pembina. But
he wasn't there for his health, and pro-
ceeded to let all understand that nothing
in the nature of a smuggling match would
be tolerated in Pembina county while he
was sheriff and that in future lie would
proceed against oil who in any way ell
couraged, aided or allotted such practices.
The fight was therefore abandoned.
Most of our citizens entirely approve of
Mr.. Dicks course in the premises.
Later.-Those of the party assembled
who remained over night, persuaded the
pugilists to have their combat next
morning, Sheriff Dick having returned
home. Accordingly the fight came off,
with soft gloves, however, and was wit
messed by about thirty. Mr.. Dick relied
upon the assurance of several prominent
citizens that the fight would not take
place, and he did not deem it necessary
to remain.

SANTA CLAUS'S LETTER TO CHILDREN.

I've travelled DER all Christendom,
And stopped at many cheerful home,
Where laughing youth and tottering age
In pleasant sports and songs engage.
I drove my chariot through the storm
Off1eecy snow, to make you warm.
And spread your lips with sunny smiles
Your happiness repays my tolls.
I bear upon my brawny back
A pannier-or a haversack-
Filled with all sorts of sweets and toys
For pretty girls and we'll bred boys.
For those who've caused their parents grief
And who to Reasons voice are deaf.
I've rods to teach them right from wrong
And make them sing a diserent song.
Oh, such heap of funny things!
Tin trumpets. coaches, finger-rings,
Monkeys, horses, cattle. dogs,
Cats and Kittens sheep and hogs;
Sweet things. such as kisses, candies.
French CONNECTIONS, sugar dandies,
Jumping Jacks and grinning apes,
Raisins, oranges. and grapes.
All these freely give to you
Who good instead of evil do.
Dear little ones, sweet buds of life,
You've just commenced your day of strife.
Your journeys onwa-d-broad the way
That leads TO realms of endless day.
There are temptations-turn from them
And watch the Star of Bethlehem.
Jesus loved children-so do +
Love Him while living, and when you die
He'll take you to His arms and bless
His chosen ones with His caress.
And now happy time 10 all,
Both old and young, both great and small;
My pleasant works not yet begun,
But soon Ill up and hurry on.
Laugh while You may, be glad and sing,
For gray beard Time is on the wing,
And cares that children never know
Come with old ages crown of snow.

State Superintendent of Public instruction.

DR.. John L.. Buchanan, the newly elect.
ed State Superintendent of Public Instrue-
ton, is native of Smyth county and is fifty
four years of age. He graduated with the
highest honors from Emory and Henry Col
lege in 1856 and during the two years fol-
lowing his graduation he took charge of the
department of ancient languages in his
Alma Mater, filling the vacancy occasioned
by the absence of Col. WE Peters, who was
attending universities in Europe. In 1878
he was elected to the chair of Latin in the
Vanderbilt University, and that institution
conferred upon him the title of LII. D.
He was president ofthe Virginia Agricultur-
al and Mechanical College, at Blacksburg,
Va, at one time, having been removed by
the Malone Legislature in 1882.
DR.. Buchanan is recognised as one of the
most distinguished educators in Virginia,
and his election to the Office of Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction is but recognition
of the talents and abilities of one eminently
qualified for the place.

There is now, and has been for some
weeks past. good deal of talk about the
s'young democracy of Virginia turning
down the moss backs" If by the latter
term is meant the men whose hair has
grown grey in their protracted struggles
against the enemies of their State, and
whose uainral and acquired wisdom has
been, and always is, at her disposal, it will
be a sorry day for Virginia when she de-
pTives herself Of the benefit of their expert
ence. Tba longer wise man lives the
more disposed he is to adopt the advice of
those whssse experience is greater than his
own, and it is seldom that such advice does
not profit him.-A lerdndrid Gazette.
