In The Hands OF Probate Judge Harvey
Tappan and Register n. n. Hart.
Cst. clair Republican.

To be called upon 10 render decisions
affecting the veal or woe of others, Is a
fearful responsibility. For this reason
alone, IL for no other, the Office of Pro-
bate Judge is second i'm Importance 10
no other office i'm the county judiciary.
81. Clair county voters chose wisely and
well when they elected the present in
cumbent 10 that otiice-liarvey Tappan.
Less than one year ago Mr.. Tappan en-
tered upon the discharge of his duties
as judge of probate. To be sure his pre-
decessors work had been well and
thoroughly done, and no odds and ends
were transferred TO Mr.. Tappan with
the keys and official seal.
Since Mr.. Tappan has been Judge of
probate 200 estates have been settled
twelve cases OF insanity have been be.
fore him. of which ten were committed
To the asylum. There have been several
cases i'm which children were the ones
most interested but all haye been
amicably adjusted.
The amount of clerical work in the
office is immense. aud i'm this Judge
Tappan is assisted by Hugh III. Hart,
than whom no better deputy could have
been chosen.
IL is not generally known that in GER
tain cases where 10 Is eXpedient that a
marriage be kept secret, the judge OF
probate can issue the license aud per-
fOril the ceremony, but such is the case
However, Judge Tappan has not been
called upon 20 otliciate at private
wedding. and earnestly hopes that he
may be- exempted, for the tragic and
pathetic predominate IN marriage where
secrecy is necessary.

the Judge of probate asked.
The books IN the probate Office are
models of neatness and method, and SO
thoroughly systematiZed and accurate
are the records that any case, and, in
fact, any particular phase OF certain
case, can be very quickly found.
There are 215 divorce cases pending
in ST. Clair county circuit court. From
January /, 1901 90 December /. 1901
there were i35 marriage licenses issued
by the county clerks. In the same time
there were 902 births. (lG pairs of twins,)
and 800 deaths.

FOU.ID AMERICANS BUYING

A Michigan Farmer Visits Saskatoon
and Is We'll Pleased.

and Is well PleaSeO.
Mr.. S. X. Lent was q delegate sent
from the farmers of Allegan County,
Michigan, 10 Western Canada, to re-
port on the prospects for successful
settlement. His report is as follows:
[ went from Winnipeg to Edmonton,
thence east one hundred miles by wag-
on l found the country in that vicin-
ity rich, black loan, varying from -
inches to 3 feet deep; the crops are
simply something enormous; wheat
and oats by actual measurement often
standing 5 feet in height. I have been
farmer for 40 years, and consider my
elf fair Judge Of the yield Of grain,
and 1 saw wheat that would yield so
bushels per acre, and oats that would
'ield 100 bushels per acre; not one
alone but a good many. AS for root
crops and garden truck, in no country
have 1 ever seen their equal for all
kinds except corn and tomatoes; the
lights being too cool for these to
ipenwell As a stock country it has
10 equal. East of Edmonton, on the
read waters of the Vermillion River,
saw hay meadows containing from 10
100 acres, the grass standing 4 feet
nigh, and would often cut to tons to
the acre. From Ed nOnton I passed
through some fine locations, namely.
Wetaskiwin. Lacombe and other
points
From Macleod I went to Regina,
thence to Prince Albert, PAT miles
north Of the main line. For the first
% miles is fine farming country, but
he next hundred miles is more Of a

Rosthern and Duck Lake found some
very fine farming country. so good

NEEDLEwoRK OF THE NUNS.
The Art of Embroidery Has Reached
Perfection in Some of the
Converts.

The most beautiful needlewOrk in
the world comes from the convents.
The fact is unquestionably due to the
training the young apprentice re-
ceives on less than a quarter of a
yard of cloth all the fundamental
rules of sewing. Industriously she
plies her needle on this bit of cloth,
mastering inch by inch all the finer
arts of the delicate needlework; one
of the greatest object lessons to
mothers with growing daughters,
who are permitted to destroy valu-
able silks and linen, running both
temper and goods over something
that is pure Greek to the crude be-
ginner. How often materials so
eagerly and hopefully purchased be-
come useless in the hands of the
person whose brain has no knowl-
edge whatever of the vastness of the
undertaking before her.
The nuns, with whom wastefulness
is a deadly sin, teach every stitch
most carefully, nor is this practice
made tedious and difficult by giving
the student long hens, heavy coarse
garments and yards of tucking. A
tiny piece of goods of moderate
weight, a thimble fitting perfectly.
not too heavy, a needle in size to
carry 20 or so thread, are the i'm
plements of practice. The young
women who learn the sewing are the
cOnsecrated women. so called be-
cause they have cOnsecrated their
lives and daily labor to God.
