Last Wednesday evening We made
the acquaintance of Hon. S. Il. Beyans,
the newly appointed special Agent Of the
Watertosn land district. In q long con-
versation with his we found that he not
only had a clear idea Of his duty but also
in discharging it he is the warm friend
Of every honest settler. He suggests a
new idea with reference to final proofs.
His proposition is that all the proofs in
the county be set for hearing at n specifi-
ed date o. dates in the month, at which
time he will be present and see that the
claimant has complied with the law and
10 point out any defect aud tell him how
TO correct it. In a word, to see that the
honest man obtained all his rights and
that the dishonest one is punished. His
method meets the hearty approval Of all,
since 1t would result in aiding and help
ing .he settler to get his proof on file in
a shape that will insure its acceptance
by the government. Personally Mr..
Beyans is a jolly, social, whole souled
gentleman-quick witted, ready nj repair
tee, keen as . brier, an excellent Judge of
human nature. and as full of fun as an
egg is Of meat. We enjoyed his visit to
our sanctum Immensely, and want him
to understand that our latch string is al
ways out.

"a correspondent wants 10 know what
Halloween means. II Is called All-Saints
Day, which the American encyclopedia
says is a festival in honor Of all the saints
and angels of Heaven, observed in the
Roman Catholic church on Nov. lat, and
also i'm the Protestant Episcopal and Lu-
theraI churches. In the oriental or cas-
tern church the same festival has been
observed since the 4th century. In the
west il was instituted by Pope Boniface
Nv, in the early part Of the 9TH century,
on the occasion Of the dedication of
the Pantheon, a temple built by Marcus
Agrippa, rs years before Christ, in honor
of Jupiter and all the Gods, 10 the wor-
ship Of the true God, under the invoca.
ton Of the Virgin Mary and all the
saints. The feast became general in the
ninth century. Since the beginning Of
the tenth century, customs peculiar to
the people of different nationalities have
prevailed all over the civilized world
In Germany, the people both Catholic
and Protestant, visit the cemeteries on
this day and strew flowers ON the graves
Of their dead. In England it is made
the occasion OF great rejoicing, aud the
most ridiculous games are INDUCED in
In France dancing and ball mosques Of
the most grotesque description are indul-
ged IN. In Spain, high mass is celeba-
ted and the day isdeyoted to solemn anil
stately RELIGIOUS ceremonies. In the Uni
ted States, the custom Of religious seryi.
