II Is reported that opposite Fairfield

work could prevent such contingency.
Corvallis Ia liable to be without river.

Insane Again.

John Amascher, who was tried be-
fsre the county court two weeks ago
Friday for insanity, and was then dis
charged, broke the trammels of reason
again and was today complained of by
Frank DurbiD. There is no doubt but
that his insanity is now fully developed.
He is on Durbin's ranch on Drift creek.
One Of the Elost patent signs of insanity
when examined before was that at the
close of bis trial he refused to take bis
own purse containing considerable
money. Yesterday he smashed his
furniture and burned some valuable
shingles. He said today he would
smash his stove, kill his horse and
burn his house. 1t was thought best
to arrest him today and the sheriff
went after him.

A PRIEST on THE PUCLIC SCHOOLS.

In an address recently delivered be
fore the Hennepin County Teachers
Association at Minneapolis, Rev. J.
M. Cleary, the distinguished Catholic
apostle of total abstinence, spoke of the
public school and its relation to the
church. On this point he said:
sour impartial system cannot foster
any religion or prefer any religion be.
fore others. All sects and creeds stand
on a footing of perfect equality in the
American common school, Under ouI
peculiar conditions, in harmony with
our regard for the inalienable rights Of
our Heterogeneous population, candidly
confess that our impartial system is the
very best the American state could de-
wise. No teacher has any claim to
position or preferment on account of
religious convictions. All classes of
our people have perfectly equal rights,
both as teachers and pupils, in the
American common school.
"rhe necessity of silence concerning
religion does not imply that the Amer.
lean state is hostile to religion or ire.
ligious, or that our public school system
is a Goddess system. The public school
room is not the proper avenue for the
discussion of divergent opinions.
THE public school is maintained by
all for the impartial benefit of all. 1t
must not be diverted from its purpose
for the benefit of few. Under our
constitution msjorities have neither the
right nor power to ignore the inalien-
able rights of minorities. The teacher
is In duty bound to respect the religious
differences and religious observance of
both parents and pupils among whom
his lot Is cast. He must not imagine
that by thus respecting the rights of all,
he Ia entitled to the credit OF generous
msgnanimity. His business is not to
tolerate some aud respect Others, but
all have equal rights under the consti-
tuition and at the bar of public opinion.
rhe establishing and supporting of pri.
vate or parochial schools on the part of
parents who believe in the necessity of
religious instructions in the school
room, is no more an evidence of hosti'-
lty TO the common school system than
is the exclusion of religion from the
public school an evidence Of enmity to
religion on the part of the state. Our

ARCTIC EXPLORATION.

Judging from the experiences of per-
sons who have staid at home this sum-
mer, and especially Of those who have
staid in town, the season just past
ought to have been an ideal one for
arctic exploration 1t has not proved
so. None of the expeditions that start
ed north has had any success. Well
man was promptly routed by the mis-
adventures he met with; even the mod
crate northing that DR.. Cooks party
attempted on the Miranda was denied
them. And now the Falcon brings the
story of Lieutenant Peary's complete
discontinue, and the upsetting of his
plans for the season as long ago as
last March by fierce storm that Grip
pied half his party, and "a disease that
demoralized his dogs. The lieutenant,
with two companions, has remained in
North Greenland to finish his work
the rest of the party the Falcon brings
back, including Mrs. and Miss Peary,
and all in health and such spirits as
arctic explorers may enjoy. Lieu
tenant Peary has indOmitable perse-
verance, and seems to thrive on arctic
weather. No one who is trying to
reach the upper end of the earth seems
more likely TO attain it than he. 1t
seems a curiously attractive quest,
that holds it's devOtees as long as
strength remains to then. to prosecute
it, and is ever Turing new victims into
it's line as fast as old ones drop out.
A sportsman who was assured of the
merits Of golf said, rather incredulous-
ly, "Well, it beats you, and, after all,
that's all any game doesr' That must
be the charm of polar exploration. 1t
certainly beats you, and as long as it
does there will continue to be men to
attempt it.-Harper's Weekly.

TWO CLEVER BOYS.
They Are Fond of Pets and Have
Many of Them

AS a rule all boys are fond of ami
mails, and especially of dogs, but not
all boys treat them kindly. I know
quite a number who delight in teasing
and even tOrmenting poor animals.
and consider it fun. Not so the two
little boys whose portraits you see
here.
The two boys are Walter and Al
fred Pach: their father is Il noted pho
tographer and has taken their picture
in many positions, especially at Long
Branch. where they spend the summer.
The boys. who are well-known for
their gentlemanly behavior, go to DIR.
Felix Alder'S school and are excellent
scholars. They keep all kinds of ami
mails in Long Branch. and would not
hurt one of them for the world. They
have Il little rabbit in the park which
they go to see very often.
When Infanta Eulalia was in New
York she happened to meet these tive
boys and took such interest in the
bright little fellows that she spent Z
couple of hours with them. After She
had left New York she did not for
get her young friends, but sent them
a lovely letter and some pretty pres
entS all the way from Spain.

CAPTAIN CARRIERS MONKEY.

Captain Carter, who lived in Wash
ington. D. c., when on land, had a
great fancy for fine fowls, and among
his collection priced a fine old king
gobbler. On his last cruise he brought
home a mischievous young monkey,
which gave him so much trouble it was
a good deal like ''an elephant on his
hands," One day, hearing a terrible
squaking in the hennery, the Captain
found Jocko with king gobbler under
his arm, while he was deliberately
pulling out the poor birds last tail
feather. The captain rescued the tur
key, and punished the monkey severe
ly, who knew very we'll why he was
chastised. The next day, again hear
ing a commotion among the feathered
tribe he went to the scene of action,
and there sat Jocko with the much
ohbler between his knees
while he was trying to put the feathers
back. His intentions of repairing the
mischief done were good, but the tur-
key did not appreciate them.-Harpers
