Peace In AErarfan, Ireland.

New York, Jan. 1s.-The most not
able event that has occurred in Ire
land for several generations has been
the agreement Oh the land question by
Representatives ufr'iiandlordssand of ten
ants, according to a dispatch to the
Tribune from London. Extreme land
owners who at the outset did their ut
most to make the Dublin mansion
house conference futile now see that
the representatives of the tenants are
more than willing to go half way in
an endeavor to bring about perma-
nent peace in agrarian Ireland.
Chief Secretary Wyndham is. anxious
to make the most of the opportunity,
and it is believed that Premier Bal
four and the majority of the cabinet
agree with the king that great effort
should now be made to settle the whole
question. The tenants are now full Of
expectation and are looking forward
to obtaining holdings on the terms laid
down in the report.

securing the Blind Boone Concert

which he can vouch for as being
first class in every respect.
Boone is negro, about 25 years
of age, and has been blind from
childhood. The only way he can
learn to play piece of music on the
piano, is to hear some good pianist
play it over three or four times.

Farewell Party to DR.. Bratrud.

Farewell Party to DIR. Bratrud.
A farewell party was given to
DR.. T. Bratrud last evening by a
number of his friends at A. Grinde-
lands Office rooms. A few pleasant
hours spent with card and in social
converse, after which an adjourn
ment was taken to Carlson s restau-
rant where an oyster supper was
served. When all were seated, Mr..
E. M. Sathre wrapped for order and
in a few words called attention to
the fact that DR.. Bratrud would
leave for Europe the following day
to continue his medical studies, and
that this gathering was for the pur-
pose of bidding him farewell and
God speed. Then he introduced
Mr.. T.. Mork, who in happy
speech presented the doctor with a
beautiful masonic pin. DR.. Brat
rud responded briefly thanking his
friends and assuring them that it
was with many regrets that he left
Warren but that he hoped to re-
turn. The doctor will leave today.

An Electric Line to Fork.

In these days OF enterprise and
Improvement, it would be well, we
think, to discuss the question of
building an electric line from War
ren to Snake and from there to Fork
on the Red river. In the east elec-
trio roads radiate into the country
from many of the towns and they
are provings profitable in vestments.
A line to Fork would have lots of
business carrying both passengers
and freight. In these quiet winter
months, when the building of rail-
roads is all the 60, let US not be be-
hind Roseau county, but start the
ball rolling and build an electric
line to the Ruby. Everybody will
want stock in the company. 1t will
be snap.

Northumberland NIDtiuZs.

Louis M. Johnson and Mary C.
Bjorklund were United in the holy
bonds of matrimony at the residence
of P. Bjorklund, the home of the
bride, in this city, on Jan. 9th. The
ceremony was performed by Rev.
G. A. Sandvall in the presence of
many relatives and friends of the
contracting parties The groom is
prominent and we'll known bus
mess man of the city, a member of
the firm of Hilleboe & Johnson, pro-
prietors of the Warren FIGURING
Mill, and the bride is a highly re-
spected young lady, a daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. P. Bjorklund of this
city. The happy couple left on the
evening train on a wedding trip to
Grand Forks and other points.
Their many friends congratulate
them most heartily and wish them a
happy and prosperous married life.

Impractical Economy.

A man who was too economical
to take his home paper sent his
little boy to borrow the copy taken
by his neighbor. In haste, the boy
ran over 81 stand OF bees, and in
ten minutes looked like a warty
summer squash. His cries reached
his father, who ran to his assist
ance, and failing to notice barbed
wire fence, ran into that, breaking
it down, cutting a handful of flesh
from his anatomy, and running a,
81 pair of pants. The COW took ad-
vantage of the gap in the fence and
got into the wheatfeld and killed
herself eating green grain. Hear
ing the racket the wife ran out, up
set a four-gallon churn of rich
cream into a basket of kittens,
drowning them. In the hurry she,
lost 81 set of teeth. The baby,
left alone, crawled through the cream
and into the parlor, running a $50
carpet. During the excitement the
oldest daughter ran away with the
hired man; the dog broke up eleven
setting hens. and the calves got out
and chewed the tails off of four fine
shirts. ''-EX.

SCHOOL. NOTES.

Our monthly examinations are
now here and everybody has been
busy during the passed days stor-
ing his or her intellectual ware
house with scraps of knowledge so
as to have supply to draw from
when the critical moment comes and
the questions are distributed.
We notice with pleasure that a
certain young lady has brand new
target against which she now di-
rects her little ''Armoris saggittae'
in the shape of glowing glances and
divinely gracious smiles. We sin
cerely hope our friend will succeed
in winning the prize this time.
Our school now continues until
8 o'clock with a few seconds of
grace at 5:2O and $40 when pupils
may leave if ready. Very likely we
will soon have to have our suppers
brought up to the school house if
we want any at all, especially we
unfortunate mortals in the plane
Geometry class who often have to
stay little longer than we care too.
If some man should come to War
ren and immediatly excel all others
in contests of Love etc., what would
the people say? Why! they would
say, Who is this great man? Where
did he come from? He must surely

cannot spare the time necessary to
devote to these topics of the day.
BE it sufficient for us to say that it
was a gorgeous scene to watch
these functionares stride to the fore
to permit the President of the
United States to shake hands with
them. Indeed when we contem-
plate this becoming democracy OF
the President and Mrs. Roosevelt
we wonder that these slip-snips
consent to touch hands with them.
This about some of those that come
from distant lands, or such as
rather be expatriated than be
Americans. The American citizen
is proud to meet the President be-
cause he is his own making, and
that he is invested with the author
ity of chief magistrate partly by
his consent.
During the late President McKin-
ley's administration, society was
much restrained owing to the attic
tion from which Mrs. Mckinley
suffered. AS consequence for
more than four years the state func-
tions had lacked a vigorous and
charming hostess purely because
Mrs. Mckinley was not physically
able to attend them, and lead in the
gaities. Even beyond Mckinley S
time society had lacked a compe-
tent leader. President Cleveland
was a bachelor the greater part OF
his term, and was. as a result,
forced to rely on the cabinet officers S
wives to direct society affairs.
President Harrison was not much
more fortunate. His wife died
early in his term which sad event
smothered the social life for one
season at the capitol, and did much
to subdue it for the remainder OF
his administration. Roosevelt on
the contrary enjoys the blessings
of having a wife of rare personal
charm, and, to crown it all, pos
sessed of wonderful powers of en-
durance. -"
