The reader of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease, re-
quires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken intern
ally, acting directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces OF the system, there
by destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing
it's work. The proprietors have SO
much faith in it's curative powers,
that they offer one hundred dollars
for any case that it fails to cure.

SALARY FOR CHEF.
The Council Will be asked to
Pay the Chief Fire Warden
a Reasonable Salary.

At the annual mass meeting of the
members Of the Little Falls fire de-
partment last May a resolution was
passed unanimously asking the city
council to fix a reasonable salary for
the chief of the department. whose
duties are also those of a fire warden.
To do his work properly, and for the
benefit of the city, requires consider
ably time, and in all cities salary
is paid for the services. Few cities
pay less than $25 per month. 1t
would be OF great benefit to property
owners if the danger from fires was
reduced by a careful inspection of the
city by the chief, and premises kept
in a more safe condition. There is
no doubt but the present chief, c. N.
Lafond, would perform his duties
faithfully, and the council should
consider favorably the application OF
the department that will he present
ed to them this evening.

There will be no graduating class
in the high school this year, Prof.
Thatcher informs the Transcript. It
has been decided after an inyestiga-
ton that the class would be unable
tn thoroughly complete the course.
The high school catalogue is also to
be revised and the course changed
Somewhat. Greek will be eliminated
from the course and thus no prepar-
alton will be made to enter q regular
college course, that is, not the CLASH
cal course, but only the scientific or
literary courses. More attention,
Prof. Tha tcher says, will be paid to
bookkeeping, civil government and
other English branches. He states
also that it is the desire of the par
ents of the members of the ga" class
that they not graduate this year.
One change has been made in the
assignment of teachers as published
in Mondays Transcript. Miss Cary
has been changed from the gram
mar department to assistant in the
primary and Miss Meyers has been
assigned to the former. 1t is not
known just how many pupils are
now in attendance but it is thought
about 900, an Increase of about 20
per cent over last year. The depart
ments are all crowded, particularly
the primary department. There are
SO many pupils in both the Central
and Columbia primary departments
that half sessions for pupils have
to be held, one section attending in
the forenoon and the other
in the afternoon. These de-
partments are in charge of Mrs. Bax-
ter and Miss Leroy. The primary
department at the Lincoln school
has increased from 36 to 20 pupils.
The attendance at the Little Falls !
schools is much larger relatively
than at st. Cloud, since the latter
city has two parochial schools in
session with an attendance of about
700, while Little Falls has no paro-
chial schools. Prof. Thatcher thinks |
that perhaps another room and
teacher will have to be engaged for
the primary departments of the Cen
trail and Columbia schools.

Worlds Fair Letter.

DEAR EDITOR:
have not got quite through talk
ing about Chicago and the great
Worlds Fair. I went out and spent
Sunday, the 9th OF August, with my
friend Long, at Bowmanville. He
showed me about LIST the nursery OF
Mr.. Peterson, consisting of several
hundred acres of fruit and forest
trees Of all kinds. The largest trees
in the forest are some times taken
up and transplanted. The largest
one that he knew of being trans
planted was an elm feet across at
the butt and 200 feet high. 1t was
taken up in the winter time, the roll
OF dirt being left on the roots was so
feet across and was moved several
miles on rollers. The tree lived and
did well, after being transplanted.
Cemeteries are plentiful after leaving
Lincoln Park north along the lake
shore. One of the most popular is
the Rose Hill cemetery which we
drove through. It contains over 700
acres, about 400 acres Of which is
now occupied. I noticed that the
lots and drive ways were very irreg
ular and that it contained two arti-
fetal lakes. One man owned the
land and put it into lots as they
were wanted, which are no M ore uni
form in size and shape than the
pieces in a crazy quilt and there is no
uniformity observed in digging the
graves. All the heads are not laid
to the west, but in every direction
that best fits the irregular shaped
lot in which they may be buried.
John Wentworth, who many years
ago was several times mayor OF Chi
cago, being very wealth man and
was generally spoken OF as Long
John, is buried in this cemetery. He
occupies a small block by himself,
has a fine monument, I should Judge
the shaft to be Is feet high. The
noted character and millionaire Smell.
who was smisteriously murdered in
Chicago a few years ago is. buried
here, but does not occupy as much
space and has not as costly monu.

son and daughter. The SOL
charges his sisters husband with
being the murtlererof his father, but
it is changed to mysterious char
acter named Tascott, that has beer

On Monday, thes28th,sI went into

looked at that interested me mucl
