Weather.CrOp Bulletin.

The weather-crop bulletin of the
Minnesota Weather service. Edward
A. Beals, director, Minneapolis, I'M
der date of May 81, has the following
general summary:
The crop conditions during the
week were on the whole rather un-
favorable, except for the grasses and
wheat, owing to cool, cloudy wealth
CT with a rainfall about normal, but
falling upon soil already containing
ample moisture caused an excess in
this element which retarded germin-
alton and rapid growth. Wheat. is
stooling nicely and a few warm days
now reasonably to be looked for will
place this crop in perfect shape for a
large yield. Grasses are growing
luXuriantly being benefited by the
excess in moisture and uninjured by
the deficiency in temperature. Cat
tie have been turned out in the
Southern. portion Of the State and
except in very few places the past
urage is ample. The wheat is pract-
ically all sOwn except in the county
of Marshall along the Red River Val
ley where it is reported that seeding
will not be finished before the second
week in June. Elsewhere the farm
ers are busy blowing and sowing
barley and flax. These two crops
have received the greater attention
during the week, owing to cool
weather being unfavorable for corn
planting which has practically been
at standstilI and fears are enter
tanned in some localities in the Cen
trail and Southern portions of the
State that the cCrn has not germin-
ated and that the land will have to
be resOwn with flax: these fears arc,
however, exceptional and the corn
that is up looks well, but is growing
very slowly. There were numerous
,frosts during the week which injured
|corn, vegetables and fruit, but it is
believed this damage was only slight
and the reports state that the frOsts
occurred in scattered patches and in
no case were they general in local
tiles where the vegetables were sui
ficiently matured to be greatly in
jured. Potato planting is general
and in the Southern District fruit
trees and Strawberries are beginning
to bloom and the blossoms are very
full.

The Priest Hit Him.

A sensational case will probably
be tried within the next few days
before Justice S. n. Wsight OF Sank
Rapids. 1t is Il case in which Father
Pfeiffer, the priest at Duclm, in that
county, will act as defendant in a
suit for assault and battery per-
formed Oh TIE person of Jacob
kampa, one of his parishoncrs
The truth Of the affair, so far as
can be ascertained, is that one week
ago last Sunday kampa attended
services at the Catholic church at
Duelm and stay ed within until Just
after the priest had made an ex-
hOrtatiOn for some money for some
special purpose, ard Just before the
reverend father had begun to nasa
the contribution plate in his direction,
kampa sat down with Joseph
Abfaltcr and another companion on
the door step, lighted his pipe, and
out here the persistent priest followed
him and demanded an explanation
kampa replied somewhat imper-
tiently and the priest struck him in
the face with his fist, knocking his
pipe cut and breaking it. High
words naturally followed this out
break and kampa in his complaint
alleges that Pfieffcr then broke a
board from the fence and assaulted
him severely with it, striking him
over the head several TINES. gatur-
day he made q complaint before
Justice Wright and the warrant for
Pfeiffer's arrest was placed with
constable Geo. Homun of Sank
Rapids, who went after him yester-
day. He returncd last night without
the reverend gentleman however as
he was in Gear Lake. He will make

He says 1.-THE church is older than

word OF God as spoken by Christ
and his apostles is older than the
church organized at Jerusalem, or

God is older ana superior to any

Epistlcs, together with the Old
Testament lis the written word OF

Tales OF a Misery, Eccentric Old Scotch
Surgeon.

Tales OF Misery, Eccentric Old Scotch
Surgeon.
In the border counties stories are
going the round regarding the habits
Of surgeon who died the other day
after practicing for the long period
of sixty-one years. Eccentric, close
listed, and with reputation for odd
:ayings, the doctor dressed like a
tramp and was widely known over the
borderland for his peculiar habits.
Cuffs and collars were unknown to
him and his ordinary garb consisted
of pair of trousers and an overcoat
buttened tightly at the throat In
his waistcoat pocket he carried a pair
Of rusty forceps to extract teeth and
also a quantity of powders. These
we're OF two kinds, white and black,
and were almost the only medicines
he dispensed.
When he attended church he al.
ways left before the elders went round
with the ladle, and with his saving
habits is said to have left 100000.
The deceased used to pay Is I'd a
week for his room, and it is said he
used to watch if any Of his landlady's
family coughed, so that he could say:
''That BARN OF yours has cold; give
her hot Cruel and put her to he'd.
When the next Saturday came round
he deducted shilling for his pro.
tessional advice!
Once he was called to case where
a woman had dislocated her jaw. He
very soon put her right. The woman
asked how much was to pay. The
doctor named his fee. The patient
thought it was too much. He, how.
ever, would not take less, and, az
the woman refused to give him the
zee, he began to yawn. Yawning, as
every one knows, is infectious. The
Toung woman in turn yawned. Her
aw again went out of joint, and the
loctor triumphantly said: "Now,
until you hand me over my fee, your
aw can remain as it is" Needless
20 say the money wa, promptly paid.
The doctors pony was known for
is leanness. 1t is said he tried to
feed it as he fed himself-entirely at
other peoples expense. The only
thing he was ever known to buy for
It were some peas bannocks from a
baker. AS far as possible he kept the
pony walking on the grass to save it's
shoes, and he had keen eye for bits
Of hOrseshoes which might be lying
On the roads. and which he got the
blacksmith to weld together. He
mad a whip for his pony with crook
at one'end. This he used to gather
tufts of wool as he rode through the
mOOrs. The wool he put in his
pocket, and when he had a quantity
gave it to an old woman who might

SPANISH VS.. English.

Among many foreigners, especi-
ally those of the Latin races, the
English language because of its
''harshness and roughness," is re-
garded as i'll adapted to the soft and
delicate shades OF polite intercourse
a striking illustration of this
theory was obsel we'd lately by pas
scnger on a steamer loading at New
Orleans for Mexico.
Several Spaniards and a few Eng.
lishmen were among the bystanders
watching the process of loading AS
the porters crowded through the mar
row gangway, laden with large bales
of goods, their passage was OCCASION
ally obstructed by these lookers-on.
AS often as this happened the por-
ter would dart swift glance at the
face of the man against whom he
joStled, and if it was one whose
swarthy complexion indicated Span
ish origin, he would murmur softly
and deferentially, "Con permisso,
Senor," - by your leave, sir. If,
however, the 'ubstructionist" bore
the unmistakable features of an
Anglo-Saxon, the porter merely
growled in cultural voice, 'Uut
the way thar boss"
He gained his object in either case
but the observant traveller was com.
PEELED to admit that the mellow,
sibilant tones of the Spanish phrase
Jared less unpleasantly upon his
feelings, as we'll as upon his auditory
nerve, than the harsher accent of
his mother tongue.
1t would not be impossible, how
ever, to frame even the 'uncouth
English" into a similar phrase, which
would be at once polished and forci-
