UNDER THE SNOW.
The White Covering Checks the Es-
cape of Earth Warmth.

What is going on there under the deep
snow, wher everything seems so death
like and still? Much is going on: the
death is only APPARENT. In the first place,
the snow is slowly drawing the frost out
of the ground; or, more accurately, it is
checking the escape of the great earth
warmth, which rises toward the surface
and expels the frost. The angle worm
works upward with it, and the sap in the
roots of the trees and grasses stirs q lit
tie. Then, here and there, there are
warm jets of life that shoot and play be-
meath the cold, white expansc.
There are the field mice that now come
out of their nests i'll the ground. or be-
meath the fiat stones, and lead a free, ac-
tive life under the snow. The snow is
their friend. 1t keeps oft the cold, and
IL shletJs their movements from the eyes
of them enemies, the owls, the HAWKS
and roadways everywhere over the sur
face of the ground. They build winter
houses under the great drifts. They
found little mice colonies in places
where they are never seen in summer.
They can get at the roots of the grasses,
or the various herbs and seeds they feed
up0n as well as in the SnowleSS seasons,
and without exposure to their enemies.
In the woods the little shrcw mouse
and the white-fOoted mouse are more or
lass active in winter. They have their
tunnels and runways also through and
beneath the snow; but, unlike the mead
ow mouse, they often come to the sur
face, and run over the top of the snow.
Their tracks look like long double stich-
ing on a white coveret. Another crea-
ture that is alive there beneath the
snowbanks, though wrapped in Il deep
and long slumber. is the woodclluck, at
the bottom Of his burrow. He retired
from the world probably i'll October, and
gets along very well, without any favorS
from anybody, till April Philadelphia

Brothers in Different Armics.

1t is seldom that two brothers become
officers in the armies of two different
countries. This is. however, the cas-
with Col Goiran, commanding the Thir-
ty-second Artillery regiment at Orleans,
says a Paris exchange. His brother has
just been appointed commandments
of an Italian army corps. This peculiar
situation is explained by the fact that
both brothers were born at Nice, before
that town became French, the elder
brother remaining of italian nationality.

Vienna, Dec. IA dispatch from St. Petersburg says elaborate re.igi- CHS services were held there today in celebration Of the birthday of the CEaroWitz, who was born Nov. 22( O. S tDec. 4j. The services included thanksgiving for the Czarowitz's pro- gress toward recovery, although as a matter of fact. those in a position to know declare that the heir presump tive to the throne is afflicted with tu- berculosis, and that the disease has reached an advance stage,
 The announcement was made last August that the Czarowiaz was en- gagged to marry the second daughter of the Grand Duchess Anastasia of Meek lenburs- -Echwerin. the Duchess Cecilo Augustine Marie. It is regarded as a significant fact that no date has been set for the union. nor have any pre- paratio2s been made for the event. To put il plainly the condition of the young Grand Duke is regarded as hopeless unless the climate of the Crimea should work miracle. The pulmonary disorder with which he is suffering is complicated by tendency to diabetes.

 Vladimir is very popular in Vienna and Paris His manner is engaging and his handsome person is familiar to the boulev arders. When visiting here he has always gone about the city in an unconventional way and is altogether more democratic than any other member of the reigning family of Russia.
 In a careful dispatch to his paper the St. Petersburg correspondent of the Politische Correspondent of this city says
 Vladimir. while too strong a man to be dominated by the military party, has little sympathy with the political doctrines of Nicholas. He embodies the prudence of the Romano1fs. Like all Russians. he is full of craft. But his tendencies are toward the fulfill ment of Russia's so-called traditional mission, and the imperial sceptor would be wieided by him with no speci- al defernece to that wise principle of arbitration of which Nicholas is the most iilustrious exponent

published. 1t will show all the
TOWNS, postofices, railroads, public
highways, telegraph and telephone
lines, lakes, streams and coulees,
school houses, churches, farm resi-
dences and the name and number of
acres belonging to every land owner
in the county. The map will show
all these things and more, too. The
success Of the undertaking will. de-
pend largely upon the number of adj
vance orders which may be obtained.
A thorough canvass of the county will
be made at an early day in the inter
est of this great work, and we feel
confident it will receive the encourage
ment it merits.

DEvINE ENDORSED.
North Dakota Teachers Declare He
Should Be Retained as Superinten-


dent of Education.
A number of teachers from North
Dakota have voiced their sentiments
in regard to the ability of their pre-
sent superintendent of education in
the following manner: We, a com
mittee acting in behalf of the teachers
of North Dakota, in attendance at the
National Education association, wish
most heartily to endorse the admins
traitor Of the department OF education,
under Superintendent Joseph M. De-
vine for the past two years. The ex-
cellent system inaugurated in remodel
ing the course of study, school direc-
tors meetings and his work in behalf
of consolidation of schools is &C. far
reaching in its Importance that we
feel it would be a great misfortune to
the state not to retain him in his pres
ent office, so that he may complete
the work so successfully started. His
influence in developing a spirit of
harmony and unity among the educa-
tional forces Of the state has been Of
inestimable value, and for his excep-
tional accomplishments in this regard
he is deserving Of d second term.
