only two knights made, the Due de Ne

Order Of the st. Esprit was created

tion and WAS revived by Louis XVIII in
1914. To speak rightly. Louis XVIII
considered that the order had never
ceased to exist, fer lac had given two
collars during his exile, in 1910. the
one to Francis |, king of the two Sici-
lies, and the other to his brother. the
prince Of Salerro, the father Of his
brothers wife. the Duchess d'Aunale.
The ribbon Of this order was q light

The Chevaliers Of the ST. Esprit were
always known under the name of Les

after u good meal, that he who had
cooked the dinner had proved himself q

BESlEGEO BY NUNS.
The Curious Tale of a Monastery In the
Canary Islands.

Canary Islands.
A curious tale of besieged and con-
quered monastery belongs to the early
history of the Canary islands and is re-
told by Charles Edwardes in his de-
scripticn of the isles. In the early part
of tho eighteenth century there lived in
Orotava, OIL the island Of Tenerife,
convent of Dominican huns, who, after
some years of ease, had the misfortune
to be burned out of house and home.
They went into temporary quarters for
year, but became dissatisfied with
such unconventual walls, and began
looking about for permanent abiding
place. AT that time there was i'll Orota-
va a house of Jesuits, which had lest its
former Importance, and, though cOmmo-
diOus and healthful, gave lodging to
but two men, tho rector of the house
and his assistant.
On this mansion the nuns cast covet-
ous eyes. and soon resolved to apEropri-
ate it. One morning about 40 of them
advanced upon it, by strategy induced
the Jesuit brother to open the outer
gate, and then troopinC into the court
yard fell on their knees. thanking God
for this preliminary success. In vain
did the two men reason with them
OH their scandalous conduct. They mere
ly held their ground, exclaiming. "Fa-
ther Andrew, this is large cage for so
| few birds" Some Of the more reason-
able members of the sisterhCod explain
ed that they were really in need of a
| dwelling as spacious as this and that
| they did not propose leaving it. The
| rector III despair fed into the sacristy,
| from which retreat he cXhorted his col
! league To be of good cheer. Patience,
! brother" cried he, ''aEd Go your best
| to extricate yourself from these ladies. -
| That, however, was more easily said
than done, especially as the nuns were
becoming SO excited that they might
momentarily have been expected to re-
sort to the argument of nails. The siege
lasted for three or four hours. News Of
! it flew about the town, and bands oi
| young men, scrupulously neutral, watch
ed proceedings from the bars Of the out
| er gate. Eventually the Jesuits yielded,
and the nuns occupied the house until a
new convent, entirely to their taste,

A LOCAL LADY EDUCATOR.

In the issue OF ''Western Womanhood"
for the present month much space is
devoted to all interesting article entitled
"Women in Educational Work, as MEM
bers OF school boards OF this state. One
OF the sketches that Will particularly in
terest Cavalier county people is that Of
Mrs. ]. Fl. Mccullough, president OF the
Milton school board. In substance it is
as follows:
Mrs J. H. Mccullough, was born and
brought up in Lacon, ILL., She bore the
name OF Mabel Holloway, until captured
by Hon. j. H. Mccullough, OF Park River,
N. d., when she surrendered. came to
Milton in 1891 where they have since
made their home and where Mrs. McCul-
Tough is active in all work for thegeneral
welfare OF humanity. She is superintend-
emit OF the NJ. e. Sunday school and an
active member OF the local W. G. Z. U.
For three successive terms she has been
elected president OF the Milton village
school board. Perhaps through her eff
forts more than any other single person
is owing the vast Improvement of the
Milton school which four years ago was
only third rate village school. Mrs.
Mccullough is woman who gains friends
constantly and better still, one who
keeps what she has gained.
