IT WOULD seem that very nearly all OF
the prisoners in the p~enitentiary at
Deer Lodge want pardons. and think
they have a pull some place. h
other day the governor had nine appli-
cations in one day, principally restora-
ton to the rights Of citizenshipupon the

ual. named Doc Lornick. a Helena

his hair and wliskers TO grow, so that he
may make a good appearance among his
friends wher his term expires IN Sep

that officers from New York are anxious

him back - that state and try him

Two Hundred Inches Of Rainfall,

Cherra Punji, in the Khasi hills, AS
sam, British India, is the ''pole Of the
greatest known rainfall" In other words.
it is the wettes. region on the face of the
earth. Mr.. Blandford. at a meeting Of the
London Meteorological society. read a
paper entitled Rainfall at Cherr Punji,"
in which he presented incontestable proof
Of the extreme moisture Of the country
in question. The records go back for
nearly 65 years, but prior to 1872 are
rather incomplete, there being several
whole years in which no record was kept.
Carefully compiled data from these
weather journals. however incomplete
as they are, prove that quite frequently
during the summer, say from May to
September, the rainfall for a single month
ranges from 100 to gig inches. Think OF
it! Nearly Is feet Of precipitation in 30
days. Colonel Sir Henry Yule's register
for the a 1S4l shows that there were
284 inches Of rainfall during the month
of August. That was something phenom-
email sven for Assam, however, and ia
not taken into account in the deductions
made above.-St. Louis Republic.

Many wise mothers think that the
theater should be reserved for adult life.
They regard it as a stimulant and to be
unnecessary for the growing mind. 1t
may be compared to those drugs which
relieve headache by affecting the heart.
Still the mother who would make Of
her girl "a woman holy and WISE will
not exclude the theater. But outside of
some special representations of Shake
speare she will select only simple plays,
such as rip Van Wrinkle" 'Sweet Law
ender," wholesome comedy where the
deep passions Of life are not exhibited,
where the sinful follies OF youth are not
presented for sympathy and for commits
GRAFTON.
There is one other class of plays which
she may some time allow for the same
reason that she cheerfully provides ro-
nance in books, and that is the real, old
fashioned melodrama in which the hero
is triumphant, the villain is brought to
Justice and all comes out right in the
end. Such q treat is like the ''frolics"
at surprise parties and straw rides, which
were enjoyable because of their rarity

Mourning PAPER.

Mourning paper is satire in itself. 1t
wears the deepest possible black margin
for the first six months, say. Then it
grows a little narrower. Is that a sign
that you are not mourning 80 much as
you were during the first half year:
Next year it is narrower still. The grief
is greatly mitigated. The third year it
is a mere streak. Your sorrow does not
amount to much nov! The next year
the black border has entirely disap-
peared. Does that mean that you have
forgotten your bereavement: That would
be the logical Interpretation, and yet in
the case Of how many whose stationery
has gone through this diminishing per.
spective t. the vanishing point the sor.
row has been even more bitter after
year perhaps than it was at first.-Bos.

A New Car Fare Register.

In a new fare register the main regis
tering train Is returned to zero at the
end of each trip by pulling out a knob
and turning il nee. around, when it
springs back into position. The number
and the direction of the trip are changed
al the same time. The register is said
TO be absolutely accurate in action, MAX
ing it impossible to ring without regis
tering or register without ringing. 1t
has a locking device, which prevents
fares from being rung up during the alb
sence of passengers, and a 4-tumbler
lock with special key. The register is
thoroughly tested at 1S5 fares before leav-
ing the factory.-New York Telegram.

One of the most pleasant events of
the season occurred at the residence of
Mr.. Geo. Baker, southeast of town, on
Wednesday evening of last week, in
honor of Mr.. Bakers 3Sth, birthday.
In spite of the mud and wind, the
friends and neighbors of Mr.. and Mrs.
Baker began to arrive at an early
hour and the house was soon filled
with happy guests. The table was
soon spread and fairly groaned under
its burden. But the greatest surprise
was when Mrs. Baker presented the
already heavily laden table with
three large roasted pea fowls. We
need not say that all did ample justice
to the feast of good things. After
wishing May happy returns of the
day which had been so we'll spent, all
departed in the best of spirits.

Allen County Teachers Association.

Allen County Teachers Association.
The meeting of the Teachers Asso-
citation at lola March 4th was quite
well attended, and an interesting pro-
gram rendered, consisting of the LIES
son in History of Education taught
by Prof. Estey, which proved to be
very instructive.
The president of our Association,
Mr.. Remsberg, informs US that he ex-
poets to go out of the profession of
teaching. We are very sorry indeed
to lose Mr.. Remsberg from our ranks.
He has been very faithful worker
and proved himself efficient for any
thing he undertakes. AS president of
the Association he has never missed a
single meeting. for which he deserves
great commentator, considering the
bad weather.
At - NJ. a motion was made to ad-
journ for dinner. TWAS heartily sus-
tanned.
The afternoon session opened with
the lesson in Physics, taught by Prof.
Picken. The review of the last lesson
was given in a very able and instruct
i've manner by Mrs. Picken. The les
son closed with every one feeling that
he was somewhat if not greatly bene-
fitted.
The program was interspersed with
some very well rendered musical Sc
lections by the Harpers of the city,
which was perhaps appreciated as
much as any other part of the program.
The Association adjourned to meet
at Humboldt April Sth, at 1880 o'clock.
