Benefits of Schools for the insane.

As durable cases and those most likely to
recover are the ones who generally attend
school, the direct curative influences can.
not be accurately estimated; but, as might
be expected, the most encouraging results
are met with in the young and in those
whose insanity has been of comparatively
short duration. I can recall two cases
where the patient could not read or write
before becoming insane, but became fairly
proficient in both before returning home.
Three others also occur to me who ap-
peared to be in the depths of dementia, but
were, after several days of patient trial,
made to feel an interest in 'puzzle map"
and each went on uninterruptedly to re-
covery and home.
Another patient is the terror of the ward,
in which she stays until 10 o'clock in the
morning, when she goes quietly to school
and remains for two hours one Of the most
interested of them all After leaving the
school she again becomes ugly and irri-
table, and it is only the fear of being kept
away from it that makes her at all con-
trollable. Surely these scattered instances
show results sufficient to justify the efforts
made; but am sure that, even where the
results are not so marked, the school is at
least an important adjunct TO employment,
games, out of door exercise and amuse-
ments.-C. w. Pilgrim, NJ. D., in Popular
Science Monthly.

Forests In Sweden.

The forests of Sweden cover nearly half
of the whole surface of the country. These
forests, which are chiefly of pine and fir, are
found in nearly all parts of the kingdom;
but many of the finest tracts, extending in
some cases continuously for eighty miles,
occur in the southern districts of Norrland,
the greater part of the forest lands being
situated below "a dogs. Of latitude. The
government owns some 1900 square miles
of forest land, and sets an excellent ex-
ample to other owners in the management
Of this property.
On many estates quantities of young
trees are planted every year to fill up the
ever widening gaps among the mature
trees. But sad inroads upon the forests
have been made in the iron and copper dis
tricts of Dalecarlia and Dannemora, where
the trees have been remorselessly cut down
to provide charcoal for the smelling fur
naces; and in these localities no effort has
been made to continue the supply by re-
planting. Journal

An Anecdotn of GreeIer.

A call was once made by dozen noted
artists of the Academy of Design, in 1870,
on Horace Greeley. Mr.. Clarence Cook,
then the art critic of The Tribune, had
been saying things about the academy ex-
hibition which caused the venerable
chiefs of that establishment to boil with
Indignation. One day committee went
down to The Tribune to complain. Mr..
Greeley, having listened in silence to what
these gentlemen had to say, looked up
from his desk, twinkle in his eye, and
said, with his peculiar nasal falsetto:
Gentlemen, judge from your remarks
that Mr.. Cooks articles are widely read.
They will, therefore, continue to be print
ed in The Tribune Good morning. San

The pointed bands of these aprons add
greatly to the style and fit of the garments.

building, where it has been left for public
The subject is The Rain Bow
Falls of the Missouri, and the artist is John
Haerst of this city. Competent judges of
fine art who have examined it unhestating-
ly pronouncS it the most artistic produc-
ton of Montana scenery that has yet been
depicted on canvas. Mr.. Haerst has de-
voted several months of diligent work to
this undertaking, but the result fully justi
ies the expenditure it has cost. The IAN
vas is a large one, being nine feet long and
five feet wide. and is framed in IA style at
once novel and effective. The painting
represents the falls and their surroundings
rs they appear in autumn, the neighboring
hills and bluffs and the stretch of country
in the perspective being clad in the colors
of fall. To the left of the falls

foam and vupor, in varied hues of green
and white, broken and DETECTED by project
ing rocks aud distractions, and in the fore
ground are seen hurrying away on their
path to the sea. Every feature of the Rain
bow Falls is brought out in this fine work
and with an absolute artistic faithfulness
to detail. and so life-like is the scene that
one can almost hear the roar of the water
rs it plunges and leaps into mist and vapor.
Everyone who appreciates a fine painting
viewing this noble picture. To those who
have visited the Rainbow Falls it will recall
the enjoyment of their visit, and those who
have not will learn what Montana can

OF THE COURTS.
John W. Plummer Asks Damages
From the Granite Mountain
Mining Company.
Charges We're Made Against Him
by the Directors About
q Contract.
Soideman In Released From His Bond to
Support the Child-It II
Dead.

John W.. Plummer commenced an action
yesterday in the United States circuit court
against the Granite Mountain Mining COM
pany to recover $37, 600 with interest. Mr..
Plummer was formerly in the employ of the
company which owns the famous dividend
producing mine at Granite, known as the
Granite Mountain. His position was that
of superintendent and general manager.
In his complaint filed yesterday Mr.. Plum
lner states that for some length Of time
prior to tho month of September, 1888, he
had been the manager superintendent and
attorney in fact of tho company, in which
positions he had control of all the business
operations of the corporation at Granite.
subject to the supervision of the board of
directors. During this period A. Warren,
Gus Ewing, Il. M. Rumsey and Panl Fuz
were the directors. As manager Mr.. Plum
mer, about this time, advertised for bids
for a quantity of cordwoo1 to be used
in the operations of the mine. The sue
cessful bidder was John Hall. whose bid
was slightly in excess of $1,000. Charges
were afterward made that Hall was IN col
fusion with Plummer and that he was de-
livering wood in excess Of his contract.
The board Of directors came from St. Louis,
the headquarters of the company, and Wis
tied Plummer at the mine. Here they had
q lengthy interview with Plummer concern
ing the charges made. Plummer denied
that there was anything wrong in his nd
ministration of the affairs of tho company.
The directors insisted that the contract
should be Immediately %rescinded. Plum
mer vent to Hall and explained the matter
to him. but could not get the contractor to
throw up his agreement. The manager
then told the directors that it was impossi-
BILE to break the contract but in
order to save the company from
any loss and to satisfy them
that everything was all right he would pay
over to the company $4,000. Under this
arrangement, Mr.. Plummer says, there was
to be an investigation of his administra-
ton, and if everything was found to be cor
rect the $50, 600 was to be returned to him.
He waited some time for the investigation,
but none was had, meanwhile the charge
resting upon him, he says, caused him much
modification. Finally he resigned and
went to Idaho. where he is now engaged in
! the mining business. In his complaint he
| says that he has demanded a return of the
money paid to the company, but that it is
withheld from him by a vexatious delay.
He asks judgment for $4,000, with interest
from September, 1888.

MAIN STREET PAVING.

Tho Matter Expected tn Iss Definitely Set

Tho city council will meet tonight and
Mayor Kleinsohmidt Ia determined TO do all
in his power to have the Main street paving
question disposed OF. The committee APP
pointed to confer with tho city engineer in
perfecting plans are divided on the question
OF using 4 two-inch plank as part of tho
foundation for the blocks to rest on. Some
Of the committee favor tho plank founda-
tion on account of tho evennea II gives tho
pavement. The others and the city en-
ginesr oppose using tho plank. ns when the
street il torn up for any purpose they claim
II cannot be relaid as evenly as the original.
II tho committees do not reach any conclu-
sion on that matter by tonight the council
will be asked to settle IL. There Ia a
disposition manifested to have every
thing relating to the pavement
disposed of to. night. 1t will take about a
month to advertise and give put the con-
tract, 40 that there will be only about two
or at the most three months left this year in
which work can DO lone on the pavement.
The work will be started at Cutler street,
and 1t is not expected that the pavement
will be finished any further than Broadway
this year. There is some talk of putting a
clause in the proposals and contract by
which the minimum scale of wages will be
fixed.

What Helena Must no to Make Sure
Of the Teachers Convention
Next Year.
Barnard Brown Says the Work
Must Be Done Thoroughly
and Rapidly.
Facts in Connection with the Selection Of
H~olena-The Part tho Railroads
Played In It.

Within thirty days members of the exec
utivs committee of the National Teachers'
nasociation will be in Helena. While 1t has
been decided that Hclena has tho frat call
on the convention for 1892, it is yet in the
power of the executive committee to have
the convention meet at Saratoga, which il
tho second choice. The final decision in
the matter rests entirely with the people Of
this city. barnard Brown. who was one of
the committee appointed by the Board of
Trade to secure the convention for Helena
in 1892, has returned, and while he lie natu-
rally elated over the victory gained, he
wants it distinctly understood that the
fight is not by any means over. ALI
the advantage is now on the side of Helena,
still such a presentation must be made to
tho executive committee as will convince
each member that Helena can take care of
the association next year.
1t is Mr.. Browne expectation that but
three members of the executive committee
will visit Helena next month-President
Cook, of New York. Secretary Stevenson.
of Kansas, and Treasurer Greenwood, OF
Missouri. The citizens must be able to
prove to these gentlemen that they can take
care Of the teachers, and to do this an
scvlvs and close canvass Of the city must
be made for the purpose of settling just
how many people are patriotic enough and
generous enough to help in the task Of
lodging and feeding the visitors. He has
already received from a number of gentle
men cordial assurances in this direction.
Among those who have agreed to entertain
all the teachers they possibly can in their
homes are W.. A. Chessman, 8. Il. Hauser,
Mayor Kleinschmidt; II. NJ. Parchen, A. M.
Esler, A.. NJ. Hotter and A. j. Seligman.
The teachers will not accept free accommo
dations. but insist on paying for all they
get. Mr.. Browns idea is that a wide awake
committee be appointed, with a responsible
head, the latter to have sole charge of the
matter, but acting in conjunction with the
committee as an advisory board. A sub
scription paper should be drawn up and
tho canvass made as rapidly as possible.
Ills idea of the subscription paper is some
thing like this:
I hereby agree to provide for the following
number of persons during the session Of the
teachers convention in Helena in 1892:
