The following clipping from the
Charleston Post is of interest here:
A pen and ink sketch of one of
Charles Dana Gibsons famous pic
ture, drawn by Miss Julia M. Boyle of
Savannah, formerly of Charleston, is
on exhibition in one of the show win
dows on King street. The sketch is a
particularly fine one and speaks very
creditably for Miss Boyle's artistic
work. 1t has been much admired, es-
pecially by the many Charleston
friends of the talented and accom-
plished lady.

The Indian School.

Miss Laura Keller, seamstress, has
an appointment as teacher in the
Indian school at Pipestone and will
go to her new position next week
Miss Keller was for some years a
successful teacher in the public
schools of Kansas and her friends
here congratulate our sister school
on securing her services.
Forty-five new pupils have thus
far been enrolled this year. Of these
forty two are from the reservations of
northern Minnesota.
There is distinct deepening of
the color of the school taken as a
whole, the new pupils being of / to
full Indian blood and those recently
sent home being those who are near
ly white.
School room work began on Tues
day of last week, the teaching force
being the same as last year. The
kindergarten has been abandoned at
least for this year on account of the
new pupils being all to large for
such training.
Miss Lena M. Mead has been i'll
during the latter part of the week.

In making the above estimate Mr.
Bowling is given more in his own
county than was estimated by our
Renville county informants. We be-
lieve the above estimate to be not far
out of the way, however. In Lac
qui PARE county he is given $50, and
again we are charged with making it
too high, on account Of Mr.. Dow
ling's attitude towards MIR. jacobson
in the State Auditors fight. He is
given only SO less than Mr.. Volstead
in Lyon, and the Volstead people
think he is given too much, but Mr..
Dowling's friends claim that he will
carry the county on close vote, and
this seems probable. This will re-
duce Mr.. VClstead's vote there, but
will not reduce Senator Young's,
whose friends remain firm. Mr..
Downing may get a few more in
Chippewa and few more in Yellow
Medicine, but it will be at Mr., Vol
stead's expense. The Young column
is the lowest estimate given at any
time.-Redwood Gazette.

MISFORTUNE OF AN HEIREss.
The owner of Arran Isle Misses DucaI
Title Because She Was Not
Born a BOY.

The recent visit of King Edward to
the. Island of Arran, on the coast of
Scotland, recalls the extraordinary
luck of the present duke of Hamilton,
and the misfortune of the owner of
Arran in not being born boy, OBJ
serves the Chicago Record Herald. The
present duke succeeded to the title in
the most roundabout way. He is de-
scended from the fourth duke, and his
line branched off in 1742 when Lord
Anne Hamilton rNho had been named
after Queen Anne) married. The
senior branch Of the Hamiltons from
the fifth to the twelfth dukes, after
reigning 173 years, became extinct IL
the male line, leaving plain Alfred
Douglas Hamilton the dukedom. The
late duke, whose mother was O.
princess of Baden, and whose sister be-
came princess Of Monaco, left an only
daughter, who is now Is. She owns
almost the whole Of Arran, which is
one of the most beautiful spots in the
United Kingdom and has not become
yulgarized by holiday makers.

HOW ERMINA,5 ARE CAPTURED.
An Ingenious Method Is Employed
by the Trapper to Save the
Fur from Harm

Perfect fur, Of the delicate ermine at
least, would be married by the ordinary
snare, so the trapper devises as cum
ming death for the ermine, as the
ermine devises when it darts up
through the snow with its spear teeth
cIutclAed in the throat Of poor rabbit,
writes A gnes G. Laut, in Leslie's Month
~. Semaring his hunting knife with
grease, helays it across the track. The
little ermine comes trotting in dots and
dashes and gallops and dives to the
knife. That greasy smell of meat it
knows, but that. frost-silvered bit OF
steel is something new. The knife is
frosted like ice. Ice, the ermine has
licked, so he licks the knife. But alas
for the resemblance between ice and
steel! Ice turns to water under the
warm tongue; steel turns to fire that
blisters and holds the foolish little
stoat by his inquisitiye tongue, a hope
less prisoner till the trapper comes.
And, lest marauding wolverine or lynx
should come fiat and gobble up price
less ermine, the trapper comes soon.
And that is the end for the ermine.
