Poor Collins for Poor People.

The duties of the newly created
poor board have brought them face
to face with CHASTITY subject. The
old saying of "May you die among
your kindred" is suggested. The
board IS to consider the matter Of the
burial of paupers.
At present when friendless and
penniless person dies, the body is re-
moved to the morgue. where it is pro-
vided with a coffin at an expense OF
$3.50. The wagon from the poor house
arrives at the morgue and ''rattles
his bones over the stones" to the
pauper cemetery at the poor farm.
"We preach our own sermons, furnish
our own hearse and the funerals,
therefore cost the county only $3.50 in
cash." said member Of the county
board. "If the poor board can beat
that record they are at liberty to do
it,"
The collins that are furnished for
the paupers are said to be very frail
and poorly constructed. They have a
pitiful attempt at elegance by being
stained. But the tops are so unsub-
stantial that the first few shovelfuls
of earth break them in and the wood
is forced into the face Of the dead.

The soil of the country in this district
cannot be excelled for cultivation and
the intelligent farmer is coming to
realize the fact more and more.
"AnOther fact which has tended to
make the demand for lands brisk is
the possibility OF new discoveries OF
iron ore. 1t is IL well-knOwn fact that
the supply of ore is exhaustible. so far
as that now in sight is concerned. and
in Il comparatively few years it will
be much depleted. People are begin
ming to appreciate this fact and con-
sequently every piece OF land that
bears any kind Of indications is pretty
sure to be gobbled up by some one.
Of course, in the great majority OF
instances, ore in sufficient quantity
does not exist to warrant active oper-
ations, and consequently there are
any number of abandoned mines.
From a reliable authority it is learned
| that there are now several hundred
proSpectOrs who are roaming the
country to the north and northwest
or Duluth in search Of iron. and their
representatives in Duluth are con-
sGantly receiving reports from them
as to the progress they are making.
1t is said that many of these reports
are of a very encouraging character,
but in most cases it will require bet
ter showings than have been made to
result in active development. How
ever, ore is 80 peculiar to the country
north of Duluth that a rich lead is
just as likely to be struck in one
locality as another, and fortunes
await the lucky persons. AS was stat
ed in the News Tribune a week ago,
the first discovery of iron ore in the
Lake Superior region was made by
the merest kind Of an accident, when,
after storm, which blew down tall
monarch of the forest, the ore was
revealed in the cavity formed by the
uprooting of the tree. Prior to that
time there had not been the slightest
intimation that ore existed in that
vicinity. Many argue that what
happened in that particular spot is
liable to happen most anywhere in
this iron country. The prophecy has
even been made that there is enough
undiscovered iron ore in northern
Minnesota to supply all demands for
100 years to come. But this, of course,
will only be verified by what the fu-
ture Develops

No boxes are furnished with the $3.50

1t often happens that soon after a
person has been buried at the expense
OF the county relative or friend
comes along and demands that the re-
mains be exhumed so that they may
be given more suitable burial. In
every such case it has been found that
the cheap tops of the collins have Teen
crushed in. The results are humiliat-
ing to the county officials and irritat-
ing to the relatives or friends. Ithas
been decided by the poor board that
the cheap, stained collins be discarded
and substantial collins, although
rude, be substituted.

between 2,5OO,0O to 100000 acres OF

IMPORTANT rlEET1NG.

The parties who are interested in starting work on
the proposed Bear River canal to cover the Eastern
part OF Bear Lake valley in this county, met in AtN
forney Bagey's office last Monday afternoon. large
number were present and thourough discussion Of the
project was had. The water for the canal has been
tiled on and the surveys made.
AT the meeting. committees on the various parts
OF the work were appointed Their names appear else
Whefe III to-day s EXAMINER Everything decar
ed to be in readiaess and work will be started immed
atey.
1t is believed the canal can be dug for $25 oo0 the
stock OF most OF which cln be paid for in work. The
canal will reclaim many thousands of acres of land not
armed at all now and besides will furnish more water
for thousands already under cultivation, but having
eply limited supply Of water. The intention is to
haEe the canal completed in time for next years use
The completion Of this canal means great deal to
Montpelier and Bear Lake valley. 1t will add many
people to population and provide homes and farms
Tor hundreds Of raRchers. The EXAMINER hopes it
wi4l be pushed as fast as possible.

Gree,es,s Awful Writing.

1t is interesting to recall tie fact that
Horace Greeley left behind him a very
frank criticism of the legibility of his
own chirography. Being up town in
New York one day, and wishing to
send a telegram and also to get shaved.
he entered n hotel and sem his dis
patch. Then. passing into the barber
shop. he sat down in a chair and (ac-
cording to custom) was soon sound
asleep.
Meantime the telegram had created
a decided sensation. Mr.. Greeley hav-
ing thrown it down hastily on the desk
and neglected to translate it. Nobody.
from the manager down. being able to
supply a legible equivalent for the
mysterious characters. messenger
was sent into the barber shop with the
screed.
Waking with u start. and %supposing
that the boy had brought an answer to
his dispatch, Mr.. Greeley took the
paper. scanned it for a moment, and
then, with a look of deep disgust, piped
out: "What blamed idiot wrote this?"

Diplomacy a Fine Art.

Diplomacy is u fine art, and in its
successful practice much depends upon
the observation of social conventions.
Some of the most successful diplomats
seem to spend most of their time at
dinners and parties, apparently doing
nothing but enjoying themselves, but
in reality serving well their countries.
In truth, the reputation Of a country at
a foreign court and ofttimes its well
fare in important issues depend very
largely upon the social abilities of its
minister. for the a who is popular
socially is very likely to drive a better
international bargain than his unso-
ciable brother. This is well understood
at Washington, and the selection of a
chief for one Of our foreign embassies
depends in nc small part upon his So
cial culture.-Edward Page Castor In
Woman's Home Companion.

Skirt That Fits the Figure.

London tailors are defending them
selves strenuously against building the
skirt which fits the figure absolutely
without fullness in the back. Still the
inverted box plat is regarded as passe,
and the alternatives offered are two
or even three small box plaits or the
tiny stitched tucks which form such an
agreeable substitute for gathers.
Tucks are popular on washing skirts,
of which so many will be worn this
summer, heavy laundry bills being an
other item in the costly simplicity
which those who can afford it are af-
fecting. 1t is the multiplicity of hand
work which makes dressmakers' bills
so heavy, tucks, stitchings. 'strappings
and the like, the latest extravaganza
being that of numberless eXquisitely
worked b%uttonholes on straps. through
which openings narrow ribbons are
run. The alternate blocks of the dress
material and the satin or velvet in con-
trast are pretty-undeniably so.
