There is a current newspaper story
about an Ohio cow that gives black
milk. 1t is an unlikely story on its face,
but not so inherently impossible as the
n from the east that alleges a desire OH
the part Of the people of Boston to run
electric street cars across their common.
It is much easier to believe that an Ohio
COW would give black milk, or even rum
punch. than that Boston should seriously
mediate allowing her common and the
children therean to be run over by the
cars.
Such a proposition is not what we have
a right to expect Of Boston. Of Chicago
CIR Seattle OF Duluth or some other town
that is in a desperate hurry it might be
credible, because those towns have to
hurry or else they get passed by. But
with Boston it is different, or at least it
ought to be. No rival threatens to pass
her on her road. l cannot think Of any
reason why her citizens should be in
such driving haste that the street cars
may not continue to skirt the common
instead of crossing it. -Harper's Weekly.

A H~umiliating Lesson.

An amusing little incident occurred at
a fashionable wedding the other day,
where many of the gifts presented to the
bride were given from a sense Of duty.
One woman guest, who determined to
save her money and credit at the same
time. took a broken earring to Tiffany's
and ordered the little stone set as a scarf
pin for the groom. As she sagely re-
marked. 1T does me no good. and COM
ing from such a famous establishment
they are sure to prize it and think l paid
a lot of money"
When the package was returned from
the shop. the wedding guest failed to ex-
anime her proposed present and merely
dispatched it with her card and compli-
ments. Imagine her disgust when stroll
ing through the rooms where the bridal
gifts were displayed to find a dozen peo-
pie standing about her offering, and ev-
cry face stretched into a wide smile of
amusement. For an instant she hest
tated. then pressed forward. and loi

Criminals.

A problem for those who are seek
ing the best means of dealing with
children of criminal tendencies is found
in the case Of Denver's ~11-year-old
boy who has just been convicted of
murder. He killed a man for the
possession of his watch, and had no
other excuse for the deed than that he
wanted his watch. In the state of
New York, not long since, a young lad
murdered his grandfather in cold blood
and with the utmos. d~eliberation, lying
in wait for him in the dark with a
pistnl. His excuse was that his grand
father had scolded him. Is it possible
to reform such children? There are
people who believe that it is.

There was some talk in connection

about the question whether a president

shows that this vas never done The

A little more spring like at this
writing and seeding is again resumed.
Neighbor Hoyt has added a new
press drill to his list of farming utensils
We notice the Palmer farm has
changed hands again; this is a fine piece.
and well improved.
Mr.. Simeon Love has moved OF to
his place and will improve as fast as
the season will permit.
Lewis Fauss has purchased a very
ingenious grinder for grinding feed and
also can be arranged for reasonable
fine work for house use.
Cora butcher is about once more
we'll and hearty. We understand that
this was not a case of diphtherIa but
more the nat ure Of quinsy.
A Mr.. Springer Of Thayer county
spent a day or two with G. S. Ferris
family. MIR. S. will locate 0 o but is
undecided as to the exact location.
Supt. Bayston called on our school
recently. Mr.. Bayston as we all know
is an old time teacher and has been in
educational work so long that his very
presence is cheering to all.
That exhibit in THE TRIBUNE in re-
gard to the annual shrinking Of values
about assessing time vas to the point
and contained a mint of truth. 1t
seems that our taxing system all over
the union is a rather bungling affair.
For instance Cook Co., the home of
Chicago, had so little silver plate at a
recent assessment as to fairly startIe
themselves. We sometimes think Mr..
Editor that this Office might more prop
erly be filled by appointment for a term
of years. In fact one county treasurer
recently told US the only remedy was in
a complete change of procedure and a
change of laws modelled upon the best
systems in practrice in some few states
Of our union; also that property could
not be reached unless an assessor insist
ed on seeing every thing assessable in
the most arbitrary manner and in that
case he would have no need to consider
reelection. We would like more space
on this subject some future time. I'm
doubtedly this much will do for the pres
ent. RALPH.

An OAK Tree In Full Leaf In Winter.

In the Goyt valley, about two miles
from Whaley bridge, there is an old oak
tree which has not yet lost last years
leaves. Every twig and branch is still
densely covered, comparatively very few
having fallen since the summer Even
the late intense frost does not seem to
have affected them or lessened them in
the least, They are of course quite brown
and crisp, but the stalks are yet quite
elastic and pliable and adhere very tena-
ciously to the stems. 1t requires a good
pull to detach them. The tree presents
a remarkable appearance, which is
heightened by contrast with those sur
rounding it, all bare and leahess. Lon

The petri6ed man, recently on exhibi.
ton in McCook, is SAID to have broken
a leg in trying to get away from an edi-

beat the newspapers should die of re-
morse and petrify the country would be
