Georges Ernest Jean Marie Bou-
LANCER, Deputy of Paris, was born at
Rennee. April 20, 1887. In 1856 he
issued from the military school at
St. Cyr as Second Lieutenant, Lieu
tenant in 1860, Captain in 1862, Ma
jor in July, 1870, Lieutenant-Colone
in November, 1870, Colonel in 1874,
Brigadier-Genera in 1880, General
of Division in 1884 and Minister of
War on the 7th of January, 1886.
He was wounded at Turbigo in the
Italian campaign of 1859; at the
battle of Trai- Dram, in Cochin China,
in 1862, and at the sortie of Cham
pigny in 1870.
He was Minister of War in two
Cabinets, and his administration as
such led to apprehension of renewed
trouble with Germany. With the adj
vent Of the Rouvier ministry to power
Boulanger was semitic command at
Clermont Ferrand. Dissatisfied with
the humber role thus assigned to
him, the General began to conspire
for his own advancement in a sur
reptitious manner. His attempts at
secresy, if genuine, YER not successful
and he was placed under arrest for
breaches of discipline. He persisted
in his attitude Of characterization,
and his name was stricken off the
active list ofthe French army. Bou-
LANCER at once awaited himself of this
freedom to get access to the Chamber.
Addressing the Legislature without
delay he cut q very sorry figure and
resigned his seat; and later ON, after
provoking M. -Floquet, the President
of the Council, into fighting a duel,
he was placed hors de combat for
several weeks. The duel took place
July 13, 1888, and on August 19 he
was elected to the Departments OF
the Somme, Charente-lnferieure and
Nord. Neglected to sitfor the latter.
After his triumphant electionin Paris,
his decline was rapid whether his
sun will rise again, or whether it has
set forever, is a question only to be
answered by time.

Grains Of Gold,

Oaths are vulgar, senseless, offen-
sive, impious, Like obscene words,
they leave a noisome trail upon the
lips and the stamp of odium upon
the soul. They crafty no sense,

must toll for it. Toll is the law.
Pleasure comes through toll, and not

There is only one thing worse than

Female Farmers.

Will the coming young woman be
o farmer?
Scattered all over the broad prairies
of the Northwest are hundreds ofself-
reliant, true blue young heroines, liv-
ing in small, isolated cabins called
shacks, proving up claims, entering
homesteads and making money.
1t is lonesome, dreary business, this
living alone on a wild, unsettled
prairie, without a face or humantorm
to welcome one or cheer ones solitude,
but there seem to be a good many
young women who have the grit to
hang to this solitary life long enough
to prove up a claim atleast.
-Four young ladies in Dakota last
year put their heads together and hit
upon an ingenious plan, whereby
they could each ecure a claim and
yet all live comfortably together in
one house and each be upon her own
land. Instead of building four
shacks with one each,
they constructed one shack with
four rooms, but so nicely plan
ned that each room of the square
building was on a different quarter
section. Each had her own bed in
her own room and in that way, each
claimant at night slept upon her own
land.

MEN OF THE HOUR.
B%OCLANGER.
The IDOL Of Disafected French People

The IDOL Of Disafrected French People.
General Boulanger, lately of
France, has become o conspicuous
figure in the history of the day, and
his name continues to occupy prom
inent place in all theleading journals
of the world. With no generally con-
coded military genius, with no grasp
of intellect that is required in the
first ranks of European statesman
ship, and with no recognized admins
trative ability to WELD the absolute
power that he covets in his nation
Boulanger nevertheless became the
idol of the disaffected French people.
His more recent history and move
ments are familiar to every news
paper reader. When he a. elected
by a prodigious majority in Paris to
the national assembly, it was regard
ed as a triumph of French disaffec-
ton with the republic. AS suchit was
regarded by the government and the
conservative people as extremely
dangerous. 1t was, moreover-and
this was significant of danger-a
victory of militarism, and of those
thoughtless people who regarded
the time as favorable for a renewal
of the war with Germany. Whether
Boulanger formally encouraged
these ideas among the people, or
not, is not certain, but it is asserted
that he did, and upon these grounds,
he has been charged with treason,
and preparations were in progress
for his trial for this crime, when he
and his followers fled from France
and took refuge in Belgium. The
latter nation could not retain him
and at the same time retain the
friendship of France and so he was
expelled from Belgium, and he
is now an exile in England. Boulan-
ger is o%stensibly at the head OF the
disaffection which rallies it's forces
around him, but there is nothing
in the man or his career to suggest
great leadership. He is snowy and
the popular idol, and is cleverly
served by men of various political
parties who expect to profit by the
success of the schemes of which he is
the figure-head.

Rich. But Silly American Girls

The American girl in search of O
title continues to exist. She is not a
myth. Disclosures, exposures, warn
ings, sensations and observations
have been in vain, and any one of
the titled atoms who infest continent
tai Europe may confidently assume
that the American maiden is his law
full prey.
One very pretty little creature set
foot upon her native soil not more
than 10 days ago, and has sedulous-
ly avoided her friends ever since her
arrival. She left a most dreadful
experience behind her. 1t was a
German baron, young and good
looking, with the ruddy complexion
and the form of q whale-bone Apollo.
1t was love at first sight. The
lady had gold galore-the baron
had debts. OF course they became
engaged. She is a swcet-tempered,
gentle-natured girl; it distressed her
TO see her baron oppressed by the
load of care which his creditors con-
stantly reminded him of. So she
paid his debts.
A few days later she received a
note from him. He was disconso-
late that fate compelled him to SUBJ
init to her generosity. She had
whelmed him by her thoughtful
kindness, but to be obliged to meet
again q woman whose presence
would always remind him of his I'M
worthiness and his humiliation was
impossible. She did not see him
again, and 40 size came home. In
her heart of hearts she inquiries:
"What is the matter with the Anglo
Saxon?"

GENERAL LEGITlME.

The seizure Of the American steam
er Haytien Republic by authority of
the government Of Hayti, and the
prompt action of the United States
in rending a naval force to demand
it's restoration, has attracted agood
deal of attention to that little island,
and to it's dusky president whose like
ness we present herewith.
When Presidents Solomon, ofHayti,
had fallen from power a few months
before the revolutionary committee
appointed seven men MS a provisional
Government. General Thelemaque
was still at Port-au-Prince when the
Government assumed office, with at
least five thousand of the troops
that had come with him from the
north. At that time General
Anselme Prophete held the palace,
with orders from the tenn
porary government to deliver
the keys only to whoever
might be duly elected President to
succeed Solomon. On the night Of.

And General Debility. Doctors disagree as
to the relative value of Cod Liver Oil and
Hypophosphites; the one supplying strength
and flesh, the other giving nerve power, and
acting as q tonic to the digestive and entire
system. But in SCoTT's EMULSION OF Cod
Liver Oil with Hypophosphites the two are
combined, and the effect is wonderful.
Thousands who have derived no permanent
benefit for other preparations have been
cured by this. Scott's Emulsion is perfectly
palatable and is easily digested by those
who cannot tolerate plain Cod Liver Oil.

Land Decisions,

WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, May Ga
decision by Assistant Secretary Chandler, of
the interior department., in the appeal of the
Security Mortgage Investment company rel
alive to the calm of Elmer Brodes. in Sully
county, s D., places a more liberal con-
struction on the six months residence
clause than the late talented Sparks would
give. Brodes was absent from his claim
twlce-once for three weeks and once for
four Weeks-to secure means of liv-
ing, he stated in his affidavit The
commissioner held that this would
not do, blu the secre tary o%verrules him IN
Brodes' claim is m"de good. The invest
ment company had a mortgage on the farm.
A similar decision is reached in the case of
Cornelius Hagen of Grand Forks county, N.
D.. Hagen was absent only at brief periods.
He worked for his brother and occasionally
took his meals and remained over night in
his brothers. house. The claim was con-
tested under the Sparks rulings. but the pres
ant administration places q more liberal con-
,truction on the actual residence classes.
Secretary Noble to-day rendered an
important decision, irving con-
which he reverses the policy OF the depart
ment that has prevailed for the past few
years ant defines the policy which will gov
txn on this question IN the future. The Ques-
ton came up on the claim of James Hair,
who bought q REIMBURSEMENT Of a timber
culture claim. Tn law was complied with
In all respects and the question involved was
whether the land was devoid of timber. SO
chat 1t could originally have been entered
under the timber culture law. 1t was shown
that there were q few small trees or bushes
on the claim. Heretofore the. interior de-
rartment IA held that one or two trees en-
u claim constituted timber in sufficient guam
titles to preclude an entry under the timber
culture act. Secretary Noble rayerses this
rule. He says:
No arbitrary rule can be established for the
sire Of the department. to ascertain what the In
tent and purpose OF congress was In the passage
II the act, CT arly 1t was to encourage the arti-
fetal growth Of timber in a prairie country. It
is within the. experience of all mankind living in
prairie regiona that In drains and rayines q few
not seem that congress- intended to exclude
every tract Of that kind from the timber culture
act. It stands to reason that 1t was not the pur.
pose to deprive the lccupants OF the vast prai-
ries of the West OF. the benefits OK the acts II
here happened to be q single tree upon the sec
land devoid Of timber" within the spirit Of the
act, mean land practically 90.
Referring to two prior decisions on this
| subject. in which it was held thata few trees
unon a tract defeated the entry under the
timber culture law, Secretary Noble says that
a fair construction of them would prevent an
entry Of any prairie land that had timber OF
any character upon It, standing. fallen Or
otherwise.
