short visit to England this Fall. and
will then come back to this country
with her children for the purpose Of

educated. Besides this. Mrs. Sartoris
is anxious to be with her mother for
some time at least. Mrs. Grant wishes
to have her children about her.

The Flight of Humming.Birds.

The humming-birds are small (the
largest species attaining to about the
size of a swallow, the smallest not
much larger than a bumb.e-bee) and
of delicate structure. They are famed
for their magnificent plunlage, which
almost always displays metallic tints.
Their flight does not resemble that of
any of our native birds, being main
tanned by rapid vibrations OF the
wings, which enables them to remain
apparently motionlcss in one spot tor
a considerable time. Their passage
from place 10 place is effected Wy a SER
les Of rapid darts, almost too swift for
the eye 10 follow. Their flight might
perhaps be best compared to that o, a
moth. Like these insects. the hum
ming-birds hover for long over Il flow
or, slipping the honey with their long,
thln bill, and IN other particulars also
in color and form, Tor example
hummingg-birds and moths offer some
remarkable parallels. Representatives
OF each may be found, to distinguish
between which needs q close scrutiny,
and which, when on tho wing, might
perplex the best observer. To all out
ward appearance the humming-birds
are birds when at rest, insects when in
motion.-P0iular essence Momthly 10,

No Man for President of vassar,

] have opened a canvass for the
Presidency of Vassar College, and in
case of. success my time will be fully
occupied by tho duties Of the position.
The place is nov vacant. They talk of
putting u man into it. N%onsensei
Nothing masculine ought to be permit
ted within the walls which inclose the
educational facilities of 1900 girls.
My claims are varied, and, l may say.
multifarious; but principally l urge MY
idea that especial attention should be
given to the culture of maidens in their
knowledge of man. Why are there SO
many unhappy marriagesp Because of
the lack of Judgment on the part of the
girls. They select from outward APP
pearances, or rather they submit blind
ly to being selected by any fairly pre-
sentable fellow vino gets at them. That
is all wrong. When | am in the Vas
sar Presidency l shall establish a chair
of matrimony, with the most co,npe-
tent person possible to lecture on the
qualities of man with reference to his
desirability as a husband. The matter
of matching certain dispositions and
temperaments should receive special
study; and l would try to make the
students experts in discerning tho good
and true in q suitor's attentions from
the bad and the false. How does that
programme strike ~you?-Clara Belle,

The Land Laws.

There are several millions of acres Of public land
yet remaining in this district. subject to entry. Much
Of this land Ia the very best quality for agricultural
purposes, while there Is a vast area that experience
has shown to he the very best grazing land in tho
west. A party intending to locate q claim should
either make personal inspection of the land he intends
to enter, or have the report Of some trusted friend who
has made personal inspection Of the land. After an
entry has once been made, even If it il found to he
worthless, 1t Is very difficult and In most instances i'm.
possible to obtain the privilege of making another
entry.
The public lands in this Territory are subject to
| entry under the homestead, presumption and timber
| culture laws. One hundred and sixty acres can be en-.
tered under each law. A party can make a homestead
and timber culture entry, or a presumption and ti.aber
culture entry, ut the same time but he cannot take a
homestead and prescription claim at the same time.
A party who is twenty one years of age, or who Is at
the head Of a family can make an entry Of puplic land.
A woman who is the head Of q family, OF q single
woman who IL over twenty-one years of age can make
entry Of public land.
Only those persons who are native born citizens OF
the United States, or who have declared their intention
to become citizens can avail thems lives Of the privilege
Of the land laws. No person Of foreign birth can Oh.
tain any right to land by actual ettlement before he
has declared his intention to become a citizen: hence
the first thing that a person Of foreign birth, who in.
tends to enter public lands, should do upon his arrival
is to 60 before the Clerk of the court and declare his in
Of 800 acres Of land in any State or Territory can take
a presumption claim; neither can any person who leaves
land of his own in this Territory to 20 upon the public
land obtain any p%re.emption right by settlement
Ownership to land is no bar to making a homestead
entry. To make a legal presumption claim, a party
should first make actual settlement upon the land, and
then within ninety days from such settlement, he
should file his declaratory statement in the local land
office. A filing made without prior settlement Is null
and void and ccnfers no right upon the settler, and even
ifhe has valuable improvements and has been an actual
resident upon the land his claim IL subject to forfeiture
in the presence ofan adverse claim, or even when there
is no adverse claim. Hence, no party should file q de.
clsratory statement for land until after he has made an
actual settlement upon the same. The law allow
ninety days from settlement in which to file. and the
party's right dates from the time of settlement and moi
