Davies, Peter Jackson tonight delivered his
u'Gmatum to James J. Corbett. He wants

agreement within the next ten days to fight
Jackson at any specified future time. I am
tired Of hearing Corbett's conditional and

cles can be signed. but Jackson is willing

1t is a source of qualification on =:

It is a source of qualification on all
sides to know that the summer train
ing school has been allotted to Prince
ton again for this year. We have the
very best inducements to offer teachers
in our fine school building also in the
way of hotels, boarding houses, rooms,
and all other conveniences to make
their months sojourn as cheap and at
the same time as pleasant as can be OBJ
tanned anywhere in the State. County
Supt. Barker, as ever, is on the alert
and doing everything that may con-
duce in any way to make the school a
greater success than that of 1892. The
justly popular instructor, Miss .Patter-
son, is coming again this year, but, if
report has it right, in a much broader
capacity than that of last year. She
will superintend the work this sum-
mer, and this one fact alone will be a
drawing card and very materially en-
nance the interest among the small
army of teachers in this and the adj
joining counties. Remember the date
July 10th. Let every teacher be on

REFERRING to an interview with
Secretary Smith, the Washington
correspondent Of the Pioneer
Press says: The conversation
was started upon the subject Of
the settlement Of the Chippewa
difficulties in Minnesota. The
pine land sales and examinations
were alluded to, and the secretary
was informed that another matter
of considerable Importance to
quite large section Of the State
was the removal and settlement of
the Mile Laos Indians at White
Earth and the general disposition
of Chippewa Indians in homes
where they could receive all the
attention the government had to
bestow upon them and would not
interfere with white settlers or be
interfered with by the settlers.
The secretary said this was mat
ter he had not reached vet III his
work, but that it should receive
his attention. ~
