INTERESTING CASE.

The term of U. S. supreme court
which was called to convene at Devils
Lake on July 2 AND postponed until
July IL, on account OF the absence OF
Judge Amidon, who was holding a
term at St. Paul for Judge Lochren,
promises to be of unusual interest. The
case is that OF M. T.. Bennett, indicted
for passing counterfeit money. The
money in question being a $50 confed-
crate bill which he passed on an In
dian named Blackhawk. The defence
will raise the question il passing Il
confederate bill is an: infringement Of
the federal statutes. The federal
court in Iowa have held that II is not
a crime, but southern federal Judges,
have held that it is a crime. This:
case will be watched with considerable
interest as Il will involve sonrle fine

this amount, a little more than hclf is
common school lands and the balance

to give the permanent school fund
about 100000 to $685. 900 cash this
fall, this being one-ffth of the esti-
mate purchase price of the land. There
are about $1,000 acres in the Red river

fund to half a million and give the
state board an ample fund to invest.

An Undesirable Boarder.

Some time ago the keeper Of a board
ing house retired from business after
having acquired a comfortable com
potency in the course of about 20 years.
During that period her house became
well known in the city and among the
women in her own business. She new
er realized how we'll known 1t was un-
til she set out to find a place to live in
herself.
She applied first at the house kept by
q woman nearly as we'll known as her
self only to learn that there was no
room for her. 1t was not until she had
been through the same experience sew
eral times that she came to understand
that she was not wanted in the estab-
lishments of her former rivals. Her
reputation for keeping a fine house was
too much for the other women, who
did not want to submit to the scrutiny
OF a former boarding house keeper who
had made u reputation and a fortune in
the business.
She learned, after going to a hotel
where her record could not be used
against, her, that she was not the only
woman who had found it difficult to
get into "a boarding house after having
kept one OF her own. When they are
well known, it is practically impossible
for such women to lind quarters, for
whatever her reasons may be the land
lady does not like to shelter her kind

A VERY CURIOUS BIRD.
The One Young Mark Twain Sprung
Upon the Scientists.

The One Young Mark Twain Sprung
Upon the Scientists.
Mark Twain's father was an ornithol-
ogist. He had several friends who
were also enthusiasts on the subject Of
birds. Whenever any one of them dis
covered a rara avis it was the custom
to have a consultation. Mark had been
a witness Of several of these bird in
quests and had noted the delight the
old men took in discussing a new
found specimen. One day it occurred
biologists with a real circus in the
form Of a bird. He killed a crow and
also a barnyH:l rooster. Plucking out
the tailsfeathers of both the crow and
the rooster, be substituted the ROSTERS
tail feathers for those of the crow, pro-
ducing a unique effect. When he had
the specimen nicely prepared, he went
to his father and, handing it to him,
said:
Here, father, is a very curious bird
I shot. I thought you would be inter-
ested in it."
The old gentleman gazed upon the
specimen with establishment. That
evening the ornithologists of Hannibal
were assembled in Mr.. Clemens par
lor. The rare specimen was put before
them. The discussion was long and
learned The opinions expressed were
various. One thought the bird was an
offshoot of the bird of paradise FAM
lily; others had equally ridiculous no.
tons as to its ancestry. But there was
n who refused to be swerved by the
popularity Of the birds tail from the
judgment that it was of the crow fam
lily.
"Why, just look here" he said, lift
ing the bird by its tail feathers. He
got no further. The feathers came
out. There was a quick closing Of a
door. MI. Clemens started to leave
the room.
Gentlemen" he said, please excuse
me a few moments. I will see Samuel
first and explain later"

HOLDERS ARE ANGELS

Mandan Times: The citizens of the
First ward are getting weary of the
exhibitions constantly being made by
the inmates of the house beyond the
dixie. It is a little too much for de-
cency when a fast woman astride a
horse goes tearing around the streets
day after day in the presence of u
mothers, wives and daughters, and
when a hack that VIGOROUSLY caters
to that house constantly runs back
and forth. The Times has been told
that certain Office holders are the
;"angels" OF, this outfit. We do not
know if that is true, but we propose
to Investigate and publish the result.
At any rate the establishment must
leave the Eastward. If it's sponsors
are determined to keep it in town they
must move it into their WI neigh
borhood. r A. -

THE HONEYBEE.
Its Curious Jaws and Its Wonderful
Little Tongue.

Its Curious Jaws and Its Wonderful
. Little Tongue. s
With the closest scrutiny it becomes
evident that the bee does not, like
other creatures, house it's tongue in it's
mouth, but neatly folds it back beneath
it's head. Bumblebees, when disturb
ed, have a way of threatening with
their jaws, while the honeybee has
the more direct method of settling in
truders with her sting.
The jaws of the bee are very credit
able organs and can give quite a for
midable nip. Catch a bee in a net and
see how viciously it will bite at the
meshes, working its jaws sideways in
stead Of up and down.
We call this wonderful implement Of
the bee a tongue, but in reality it is
more than this, for the whole arrange
ment consists Of two slender flaments
called maxille, the under lip and the
actual tongue. If a drop of honey lies
near the surface of a flower, the slen-
der, active tongue, darling out from
the case formed by the maxilln, ticks
1t up with the same cas- that a dog
licks a plate. Should the tube of the
flower be elongated the bee has at
command another length Of tongue,
which is shot out from within and
shuts up Ike a telescope when no
longer wanted.
To appreciate fully this delicate
organ you should watch the bee sepa-
rate it into it's component parts and
clean it out. The lengthening process
of the proboscis, as the tongue and it's
allied parts are sometimes called, is
accomplished by a series of springs and
hinges. In addition to this ~telescoping
power, the tongue is a hairy member.
the hairs arranged in rings, the longest
ones toward the center. They assist in
lifting in the nectar and in pumping it
into the mouth. Thence it goes to the
honey sack.-Chautauquan.

make the experiment could marry in
his own class, could marry probably a
