On our tropical horizon,
And reflect this may mean Justice

IMPORTANT SCHOOL DECISION.
Districts Do Not Lose Organization by
Not Having School.

Districts Do Not Lose Organization b,
Not Having School.
An important decision was recently
rendered by State Superintendent oi
Public Instruction Irwin, which is oi
special interest to rural school dis.
tricts. In letter to the superintend.
ent of Lincoln county's schools he
holds that school district does not
lose its organization by reason of its
failure to have at least three months
school each school year, but simply
loses its apportionment OF state and
county money.
Should a district fail to have school
for number of years, and then by
private means raise funds and have the
necessary three months school the
district would be entitled to its appor-
tionment of state and county money
thereafter. It would seem in the light
of this decision that there is no way
for school district to lose its auto
nomy unless it be detached to some
other district A voluntary failure to
elect officers or to have the three
months school each year does not af-
feet organization.

by about $50 members and invited
guests. The programme rendered
was unusually interesting, the music
being so well appreciated as to Call fol
an encore after each rendition.
First on the programme was chorus

sixth, address by DR.. Doan. When
| the doctor ceased speeking, Master
workman Herrin announced that
dancing was in order, also that coffee
and cake would be served by Mr.. Kel-
Ter. The hall was at once cleared, and
until y o'clock light and joyous feet
kept time to sweet strains of music
furnished by Mr.. and Mrs. Herrin,
while the refreshments se"ved at
Keller's cafe were not overlooked.
In his address DR.. Doane furnished
some data concerning the Ancient Or.

the uninitiated good idea of what
this great beneficiary order is doing to
ameliorate the human race In the
United States and Canada, and of its
phenominal growth. Although it has
been in existence less than quarter
of century, it now has membership
of $4,000, and the disbursements on
beneficiary certificates at the present |
time amount to % cents per second, or
over s2l 900 per day. None of this vast
amount goes uo pay the salaries of of.
icials or solicitors, but is paid direct
TO the families of deceased members.

Oregon is about 1000, and of Temple

Catching Whales by Nets.

In New Zealand, where the old-fash-
ioued methods in use in most other
whale fisheries have been abandoned
in favor of nets, which are now used for
the capture in those waters of these
leviathans of the sea, the nets are made
of two-inch MANILA rope and are so
constructed that galvanized iron rings
take the place of the knots in the ordi-
nary nets. The mesh is a six-foot one,
and the ropes forming 1t are spliced
into the rings. The nets are made in
six sections, each ten fathoms square,
with two ten-gallon barrels as floats
to each section. When setting the net
the sections are joined together with
line just strong enough to bear the or
binary strain to which they are liable
to be subjected, so that when whale
gets meshed he tears away the section
in which he is fast. While he is trying
to get rid of the net the whaleboats,
which are always waiting, dart along
side and harpoon him.-London Tit
Bits.

undiscovered until Albert Chapman, OF
Marblehead, cropped the bushes and
weeds which grew about its base in
rank luxuriance, disclosing the stone
features which bear a most striking
resemblance to the Father of His Coun-
try.
Some call it the "Old Man of the Sea"
but the majority of Marblehead cit
liens trace in it's lines and curves a
counterfeit of the loved face of the
first president.
The face is formed by three rocks,
one forming the forehead, one the chin
and the other the nose. The face rests
upon a slightly elevated knoll, at an
angle, as if the great general In effigy
were taking his repose and languidly
gazing out to sea.
The George Washington stone will
henceforth be one of the many objects

Spanish Pronunciation Proves Puxrling to
Party of Chicagoans.
Five Chicagoans arrived at Albu-
querque, N. NJ, one day late in August.
They were taken in charge by Frank
Blake, Chicago boy, who has lived in
the west for some years, and were soon
shown all the sights of the quaint old
town. As they walked along the princi-
pal street Mr.. Jamison looked up at a
building and remarked: "El tornado
hotel; nice building"
"Yes," said Blake. But you must
pronounce it right. 1t is Ell Hornada
in the Spanish tongue. is always H

"That SOP" answered Jamison.
Funny custom. What's this church
here?-the Cathedral of San Juanl"
"San Huan," corrected Blake. Mr..
Jamison looked panied, but accepted
the correction. A moment later he
broke out again. whats thisP La
Jolla2" ia Holla," spoke the ready
mentor by his side, and Jamison's eyes
began to roll. So it went through the
whole town. Blake corrected Jamison
at every turn. When they all got back
to the hotel Jamison had strange,
drawn expression on his face, but no.
body paid much attention to him. He
went into the dining-room ond called
a waiter.
Bring me-" said Mr.. Jamison, in
slow, measured accents, "some fricas-
seed hack-rabbit, with apple belly, and
let me have a mint hulep before the
meat, please"
The waiter stared at him and some
body at the next table snickercd. That
was the last straw. The Chicago man
sprang to his feet ablaze With indigna-
ton. "By hinge" he Numbered, what

obtained reputation and clients. Soon
after his admission to practice he be-
came member of the firm of Peckham
& Tremain, and continued in that con-
nection until the death of Mr.. Tremain,
when the firm became Peckham & Ros-
endale.
AS his father did before him, the
younger Peckham began his ascent of
the ladder of legal fame by means of the
district attorneyship of Albany county,
which he attained in 1869. He made
brilliant record as a prosecutor. He
always took deep interest in state and
national politics, being active in the
presidential conventions of 1876 and
1850 he was leader of the Tilden
forces. After serving as corporation
counsel of Albany he was in 1883 elect
cd a justice of the supreme court for
q term of IA years. His election to the
court of appeals followed in 1886. His
eloquent denunciation of the Onondaga
county election frauds won for him the
opposition of Gov. Hill, who procured
the disastrous nomination of Maynard
for chief justice of that court to pre-
vent Judge Feckham's nomination for
it. Judge Peckham's term would eX-
pire in 1900.
1t will be remembered that Wheeler
II. Peckham was nominated for the SUI
preme court by President Cleveland
and vehemently and successfully op-
posed by Senator Hill. The senator,
however, seems TO have experienced a
change of heart, as he recently said in
an interview: 81 hope the president
will send in the name of Rufus W..
Feckham to be associate justice of the
supreme court. New York ought to
get the best place, and 1 think it will.
In my Judgment there is nothing in
this talk about Carlisle's going on the
supreme court bench. The president
knows that New York state is entitled
to it, and believe that he will select
q New York state man. Rufus W. Peck
ham is my choice"
