Queen Hortsnss's Pastims Spoiled BY IN
Abundance Of Them.
An amusing story Of Queen Hortense.
daughter Of the Empress Josephine and
wife OF Louis Bonaparte, King Of Hol-
land. has lately been told. After her
exile + I'm Holland tho ex-Queen So
journed for time in modest habita-
ton near Constance, in Switzerland.
As her health was broken down by
her troubles, her physician prescribed
visit to the mountains Of Appenzell,
and the ex-Queen, accompanied only by
a reader or female companion and two
or three servants, went to rustic
neighborhood in the hills. There she
and her companion found nothing bet
ter to do than hunt for four-leaved
clover, and became quite excited In the
search.
ITO lend the matter interest,"" the
Queen wrote in letter which has been
brought to light, I'VE would assume
that each discovery Of four-leaved
clover had some prophetic significance.
The next one, If found so and 80, meant
that we would return to France; an
other meant that was to receive let
ter the next day from my son Louis,
and SO on. In this innocent pastime
we found positively the only excite
ment that was open to US in the place.
But soon it was noised abroad
among the children Of the neighbour
hood that we were continually hunting
four-leaved clover, and consequently,
these children argued, we must want
1t very much. Then all the children
and some of the grown people were out
hunting four-leaved clover, and soon
great punches Of 1t were brought to US.
for which we had to show ourselves
very grateful.
I'm another day our only resource
for amusement was gone, for these
kind but superserviceable people had
stripped the neighhorhood for a mile
around of all its four-leaved clover!"

WATERFOWL Public Opinion When
the war opened with the south more
than thirty years ago, this govern
ment had no vessels, to speak Of
There were but few vessels and they
were mostly inferior as fighting ships.
When the war closed four years later
this government had nearly seven
hundred war vessels of various class
es and designs. If war with Spain
should be prolonged we would prob
ably again have a powerful navy,
and it is possible that at the close OF
the war We would have the most
powerful navy in the world.

Soldier Boys Rejected.

Examination OF volunteers at
Sioux Falls has created considerable
disappointment in the breasts OF
many patriotic young fellows. In
the Aberdeen company nearly half
OF them were rejected. All three Off
GERS, captain and both lieutenants,
OF the Huron company were rejected,
because they fell short of the phys
ical Requirement. At first the whole
Huron company intended to go
home, but they thought better OF it,
and took the examination. A great
many haye been rejected in all com
panies, and new men will have to be
secured.

No Politics.

Huronite The Sioux Falls Press
says that politics are entirely alb
sent from the military opera tions in
this state but facts are against its
reasoning. The Huronite is not
complaining but there is more poll
ties to the square inch in the move
ment and enlistment of South Da-
kota troops than patriotism.
Among all the appointments re-
publican can not he found. No, this
is not politics. Only putting popu-
lists to the front and using the posi-
tions OF our volunteer army to re-
ward political friends. A republic
can stands as much show in securing
a commission from the governor as
a snow ball does in Cuba.

Mr.. A. c. Thomas, OF Marysville,
Tex, has found a more valuable dis
coyery than has yet been made in
klondike. For years he suffered un-
told agony from consumption, ac-

was absolutely cured by DR.. Kings
New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds. He declares that
gold is of little value in comparison
with this marvellous cure; would
have it, even ii it cost II hundred dol
lars a bottle. Asthma, Bronchitis
and all throat and lung affections
are positively cured by DR.. Kings

mistake for which he is sorrv- A num-
Der OF teachers came in. but were dlsap-
pointed. We shall try it again next
Saturday. the l4th.
AS a result OF the examination for gradu.
alton the following persons will receive
diplomas: Marie Snoddy, Bert Shield
on, George McCullen. Ruth Snoddy,
Nora King, Dollie Bushfeld. Laura Stone,
Junv Taylor. C.. A. Corkins, Fred sweet
land, Mamie Elfrink, Clare Wilson. May
Stout, Katie Grant. Grace Carroll and
Amelia Schmidt, making class OF six
teen, the largest thus far In the history
of the work in this county.
There are some things about the work
that are especially gratifying First, The
self reliance of each one while taking
the examination; second. the short time
spent in ans wering all questions; third.
the neatness of the manuscripts; fourth,
the high standing OF so many Of the APP
plicants.
Graduating exercises will be held in
Miller on Friday evening, July 1st
There is another feature to the out
come of this WORK that, in way, is
painful to the Supt. Quite a number
did not succeed in coming up to the re-
Quirements and no doubt will be more or
less discouraged. This is natural-no
one desires to fail ana it is not pleasant
duty to notify an applicant that the re-
quired standard has not been reached
by him; but, in another sense it is not
painful. These tests are the means en-
ployed to show the comparative stand
ings. to point out the weak places so that
each may know wherein he is deficient
and may thus put forth the effort that is
necessary to fortify himself against fu-
ture failures. There is not ono who
failed at this examination that should
fail year hence. Therefore, let each
one res olye at this time not to be oyer

The changes OF time are being not
ed by remarkable comparisons.
When the civil war occurred in this
country, we had in circulation $780,
100000, or about 81 for each in
habitant. Today the United States
has in circulation about 81 $50, 000,-
900, or $23.69 for each inhabitant,
as shown by the last treasury state
ment. What a growth and progress
in wealth and people!
