From NORTH DAKOTA.

On Saturday last there was quite
large party Of cxcursionists here at the
Beach, composed Of people principally
from North Dakota and Minnesota.
They have been "doing" Southern Cali
fornia, and of course could no: return
without visiting Long Beach. which they
did on most delightful day. One of
the gentlemen, Mr.. j. p. Brown, of
Steele County, N. D., who with his son
are largely interested in farming and
banking, informed us that he had been
troubled with rheumatism before leav-
ing home, but three weeks existence
in this genial cline had dissipated it
nearly altogether. Mr.. Brown said ho
has 1900 acres of wheat land, and owned
the only bank In the county, and that if
he could dispose of his land he would
remove hither. At all events he expects
to spend his winters hero. Other Nom.
bers of the party expressed their delight
and surprise at the natural beauties Of
our scenery and fine weather.-Long

Casselton, N. D. Feb. 18th. 1896.
GENTS: This morning I bought
ticket at Hope over the Great Northern
for Casselton, for which I had to pay
S1.70. Last summer the cutoff was
built from Ripon to Casselton, shorten
ing the distance several miles, but they
have probably not found out in St. Paul
yet, in the General offices Of the Com
pany and these few lines may call their
attention to same. l don't think Mr..
Hill expects to collect for tho extra mile
age until tho cut off is paid for, but it
looks little that way. In Minnesota
the rate is three cents per mile, while on
the Hope branch it is nearly five cents
per mile and the balance Of the state
four cents per mile.
Iremain Yours Respectfully.

Justice and Injustice.

Justice and injustice arc closely akin
in childhood. A child carly detects in
justice in others, though he is not de-
lica.ely susceptible to it in himself. The
same is truo Of the children of larger
growth. At first with tho young child,
injustice is little more than change
of habitual action. Whatever disturbs
his uniform activity, whatever occurs
that he does not expect. is to him an
injustice. With him, justice is the ex-
pectel, injustice the unexpected.
One OF the highest missions of home
and school is to establish spirit and
habit of justice in the child, so that he
shall have keen sense thereof as ap-
plioh to himself. This should be we'll
done before the child comes to school,
but if it has not been accomplished. it
should receive carly and persistent at
tention. ....
Recent child studies reveal the fact
that most children got the impression,
that the teacher is unjust at times.
Their estimate of punishments is almost
invariably based on the fact that some
one else ought to have been punished
also, or that some one should have been
punished more severely, or himself less
so.
These child studies have revealed the
fact that almost tho only view a child
has Of his punishment is in its injustice,
and that he almost invariably argues
himself into the position that it was un-
just. In no case yet discovered, think
has child complained of the severity, if
he said Il deserved it,
1t is Of greater service to the child and
to mankind for teacher to train child
rem to estimate justice and injustice
with the personal element eliminated
than it is to secure 100 per cent in arith-
metic. or even in spelling.

A Child's Idea Of Marriage.

Marriage, from the child's point of
view, is a kind of contradiction. The
law of love, according to his experience,
brothers and sisters who live in the same
house and have the mutual knowledge
of daily companionship to love one an
other, but how can two strangers love
one another so much as to want to live
together? A boy Of seven once said to
his mother: 81 don't see why husbands
and wives must be so fond of each 9TH
er. They are no relations at all. A
husband is just a man you pick up any
where" This boy, smart one, as his
language suggests probably expressed a
widespread childish perplexity. The
rance Of the meaning of marriage, but
even as we smile do we not half feel that
the child's way of looking at human re-
lationships is in a sense the right one,
and that MARI ge, however necessary,
is in a manner eminently unnatural?-

For Removing old Paint.

Painters pickle for removing old paint
is made as follows: Mix one and a half
pounds of stone potash, one and a half to
two pounds of soft soap, and a half
pound Of washing soda together, and
stir into a gallon of water. The pickle
should then be boiled till the potash is
melted. Apply this with a brush, work
hours. The work must afterward be
washed thoroughly with strong hot soda
water, using. no soap. n. B.-Great
care must be taken in using this pickle,
as it discolors the finger nails and takes
the color out of anything it touches.

A Noisy BAH Of Fire Comes Aboard

Capt. Dickson of the British bark Eu-
dora reports an unusual electrical display
during a storm in the South Pacific. The
Eudora left Junin, Chill, on February
%, and while beating down the coast
toward Cape Horn the storm was seen
approaching the vessels stern, swapping
and sizzling like wall of fire, but travel
ing only at a moderate speed, the wind
being light at that time.
When the storm struck the vessel it
blew with the force of a hurricane, and
for a time it looked as if the masts
would be blown out. There was a great
electrical display all over the rigging
and great ball of fire foated near the
mizzenmast and exploded with a report
were dazed and nearly blinded, but for
tunately no one was seriously hurt. The
vessel labored heavily in the sea- and the
wire rigging was ablaze with electricity
The storm soon cleared away, and the
sea at once became as calm as before

Weeds in Cities.

A Chicago botanist is authority for
the statement that the most vicious
weeds generally get started in the open
spaces in and about cities and towns,
and spread from there into the country.
This is mainly due to the fact that the
seeds are taken to the cities in the bed
ding used in cattle cars. The buffalo
burr, which is native Of our Western
palms. has been carried East until it is
now a familiar pest in many states east
of the Mississippi river, and it has even
been taken across the ocean, and is in
Testing the fields of Germany.
The weed knows as "prickly lettuce"
which is now to be found all over Michi-
gan and Ohio, was distributed. as in
vestigation shows, from Detroit and
Toledo. While we produce a respectable
variety of native weeds in this country,
some of the most troublesome have been
imported Besides the Russian thistle
may be mentioned what are known as
wild carrots and wild oats. The wild
oats are particularly troublesome in the
spring wheat region, and are found from
Minnesota to Oregon. Both the wild
oats and wild carrots are supposed to
be degenerate specimens of the domestic
plants of the same name. While the
buffalo burr has moved eastward, the
wild carrots and wild oats have steadily
been pushed toward the West. Another
imported weed is a species of mustard,
which has been annoying the fiax-grow-
ers Of Europe for many generations be-
fore it made it's appearance in this coun-
try. One thing about these weeds which
makes them exceedingly hard to fight is
that many of them have the proverbial
nine lives of the cat. The seeds will re-
tain their power for several years, and
weeds will continue to spring from them
for a long time without the introduction
of any fresh seeds.-Buffalo Commercial.

Where jackson Fought a Duel.

During the storm last week large
red elm tree in front of Tom Darden' S
house, near town, was blown down.
This elm was perhaps the most historic
tree in the county, and was known as the
"Dickerson tree" 1t was situated on
the grounds wherein the famed Jackson
Dickerson duel was fought, years ago,
and under the spreading branches Dick
erson reclined, awaiting medical atten-
ton, after being MORALLY wounded by
Gen. Jackson. The trunk Of this old
tree measures only four feet in diameter,
while it's branches measure 100 feet
across Mr.. Darden greatly regrets the
uprooting of this old forestry landmark.

Growing Peaches in the North.

Every few years the extremes Of tenn
perature during some one of the winter
months proves fatal to peach buds. Such
was the case last winter, and this is one
Of Connecticut's peachless years. Hith-
erto no practicable method has been de-
vised to protect the trees and prevent
this injury. But Massachusetts gen
tleman, J. f. Parmenter, suggests q
plan that, SO far as | know is original
with him. Being SO simple it seems a
wonder that it has never been thought
Of before. Instead Of bending down the
tree every winter and covering it as
is done in Minnesota and some other
states, the new method is to set out
the young tree on a slant and train it
to grow in a horizontal position and quite
close to the ground The trees may be
planted fifteen feet apart each way,
and leaning toward the south. A cheap
trellis may be made about a foot from
the ground, and the new growth tied to
it from time to time. When severe
weather sets in a covering of straw and
evergreen branches will effectually pro-
tect the buds. In this way it is be-
lieved that peaches may be obtained ev
cry year, regardless of the character of
the winter. The method is one that
seems to commend itself at once to hor-
ticulturists as worthy of trial.-Hartford
