The Story of the Year.

Pullman and to the PalouSe couh-
try. Especially has the city OF
schools reason to be proud of the rec
ord of the year, for each succeeding
dav of the 1865 has witnessed a bet
terment, an improvement in trade
and business conditions, and the
black spectre of depression, the re-
suit of the "panic of 49," has been
rapidly forced into the background.
New firms and new business houses
have come to Pullman, the old ones
have enlarged their stocks and their
trade, until every business house is
again occupied, and the demand for
residence property is greater than
the supply. All this is made pos
sible because ola bountiful nature,
and profitable sale for all products
ofthe soil.
The important local events of the
year, as recorded from week to week

following columns.

Pain and Peace.

1t is often surprising to see how
much pain may be in the sensibility,
and yet peace in the depths of the
mind. In crossing the Atlantic some
years ago We were Overtaken by a
gale Of wind. Upon the deck the roar
and confusion was terrific. The spray
from the crests of the waves blew
upon the face with almost force enough
TO blister it. The noise of the waves
bowling and roaring and foaming was
almost deafening. But when | stepped
into the engine room everything was
quiet. The mighty engine was moving
with a quietness and stiffness in strik-
ing contrast with the war without. 1t
reminded me of the peace that can
reign in the soul while storms and
tempests are bowling without-C. J.

cOrding to the type of ship attacked.
So much will depend upon the first few
minutes of a close action that il a
commander could give his instructions
to his different gun detachments before
coming within close range as To the
part of the ship upon which they
sOuld direct their fire it might be Of
immense advantage to him. Before he
can do this he must recognize his
enemy, and every means would no
doubt be taken to discover the iden-

sible moment. Let us suppose the

to which she belongs, is known. Ii

between ships will be of rare occur

idly and where such rules as | propose
for discriminating attack could not he

the chance that individual ships may
be pitted against each other. when il

into the habit of placing their hats and
canes on his desk instead of i'm the

article of the kind placed there would

professor was called for a moment
from the classroom. a student slipped

with the professors hat, which he
placed conspicuously on the desk,
while his fellows grinned and trembled.
The professor, on returning. saw the

The War Is Over.

And now our thoughts are all OF peace
and home. There are, too often, peo-
pie to be found who have no home,
and it is to them these few words are
addressed. If you really want home
you can easily get one. but you should
act at once before the relapse from
the war puts prices on the advance.
In Marinette County, Wisconsin, the
very finest farming land is to be had
now at a most modest figure. Excel
lent home markets are at hand to take
whatever the farmer raises, and good
prices are given. These lands are on
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway. and full information concern
ing them will cheerfully be furnished
