Fresh Discoveries ,..ade.

Even at the present time fresh dis.
| coverles in connection with the old
abbey are sometimes made. Not very
long ago leaden coffin was found in
front of what had been the high altar.
It was supposed to have originally con-
tanned the body of Isabella, wife of
Richard, eall of Cornwall known to
fame as the king Of the Romans. This
supposition was confirmed by the re-
cent discovery of monumental stone,
on which part of the inscription may
still be seen, facet Isabella Prima
V....' and on the other side 'Ricardi
Romanorum." Isabella, countess Of
Cornwall, was buried in 1850.

In this issue appears notice of assess
ment. equalization. and for tenders in
drains % which parallels the Tongue
river for three miles where its banks are
low and discharges into it where the
banks are SO high as never to be flooded.
The idea is new. 1t is to aid, by Great
ing current, the natural flow of the
river and by speeding flood waters on
their way prevent floodings Of low lands
beyond the limit OF the drain. That it
will accomplish much good and give
great relief we are convince d. The
engineer in charge o: the survey is en-
thusiastic in support Of the idea and
classes it as one Of the most serviceabe
drains he has laid out IN this county.
By keeping the early fl BOD waters in the
channel in place of creating reservoir
to aid later in the volume OF water, much
OF the danger of flood farther down the
river will be >one away wlth.-Pink

"voULD NOT COME PECK"

The editor Of the Times has a wood
pecker that taps on the roof of his house
at five O'Clock in the morning when
Grant feels most like sleeping and>he is
looking for remedy.
There is story that has recently been
going round the press of Dutchman
who because he could not Jew the con.
ductor of the train down ten cents on the
fare, was put off the train. The Dutch.
man started to walk on the track ahead
of the train, and when the train started
the engineer sounded the whistle to
warn the Dutchman from the track. He
misunderstood the warning and thinking
that the conductor wanted to accept his
terms, shook his fist back at the train
and shouted "You may vissle as much
as you want, I Won't come peck"
Perhaps if Brother Hager would stick
his night. cap out Of the window about
four O'Clock in the morning and svissle"
the bird would not come peck".

Over in Kittson county is dog-slay-
ing case of considerable interest, both
from the prominence of the dead CANNES
and the parties at law. P. H. Konzen,
one Of the most prominent citizens, and
lawyer OF wide practice, of Hallock,
it is alleged, shot three dogs last Februa-
ry. The animals were pedigreed, and
one is claimed was worth $3.50; the other
two were valued at 500 each. One dog
was the property of E. M.Upson OF Traiil
county, this state, and all the dogs were
in the hands of a dog trainer named Pc.
terson. There will probably be some
nice law points brought up in these cas-
es. of interest to dog owners-and the
enemies of dogs.

THE 1T1NERANcY OF THE TEACHER

The Mountalneer takes up our little
talk on the transient life Of the average
pedag gogle, and remarks that we did not
suggest remedy. We acknowledge the
| fact, but our excuse is, that we do
! not know Of any. Like many other
things i'll this world it is much easier to
find the wrong than to make right.
Every body knows when they are sick,
but even skilled physicians are some
lines at a loss to name the diseases and
still more often to find remedy.
The Mountaineer however suggests a
remedy that might be somewhat success
full. Its idea is to have teachers appoint
ed by some general board or committee
or power. Something after the fashion
Of the Episcopal and NJ E. and Catholic
churches, in which the pastors are sta
toned by bishops and other authorizes.
In fact the Presbylerians and any other
demo limitations have similar systems to
some extent, by which churches are sup
piled with pastors. We believe that in
the old country where the public schools
are known as and are in fact govern
ment' schools this system is carried out.
The local patrons of the" shoots have
little or nothing to say as to who the
teacher shall be. but he is the appointee
of the government, gets his pay from the
government. stays for life and good be-
havior, and when incapacitated from old
age becomes the pensioner of the gov
eminent.
But any such scheme in this country
would be so radical change that we
doubt its success. As we have pointed
out before. in talking about "consolida-
ton" Of shool districts, there is sort of
sentimental locality feeling in most dis
tricts, which is akin to that of the family
circle, that centers itself about the dis
trict school house, and whose intimacies,
and quarrels, and business is all its own.
In great many of these little communities
they would vote unanimously against the
appointment of an angel from heaven as
teacher if appointment should be made
for life.

PUBLIC PROSECUTORS.

Some murder trials, past and present,
that have occupied more or less of the
attention Of the public and the press,
develop the fact that many of our official,
public prosecutors and other officials con-
nected with the prosecution of offenders,
became public prosecutors in their
strenuous endeavors to convict the per-
sons on trial.
OF course their is no one, except the
criminal and his immediate friends, who
want the guilty to go unpunished. The
officers of the law are elected for the
purpose of seeing the law enforced and
to bring criminals under the penalties OF
the law but are also expected by law and
the public, to be equally the defenders
of the innocent.
The apparent tendency among the
officials appeats to be, to first find some
body guilty in their own minds and then
try by every possible means to prove the
same to the jury. This state of affairs
comes from several reasons; one, that
when crime is done the public expect
some one to be punished for it; and the
officials expect that if they don't find
somebody guilty, then the public will
deem the officials inefficient. So the Off
cial finds somebody guilty. Again,
especially among the legal fraternity, the
result of a sensational murder trial, is
taken as professional matter, that is,
they go into court and fight as for their
own regulations as trial lawyers, and
strive to win because to win. means re-
putation. Too many lawyers go into
court to try their own cases rather than
that of the defendants.
The public is moi much better. They
form opinions before the evidense is in
cour::. or on fractional parts Of evidence,
and then 60 round arguing the guilt or
innocence of the defendants, until in
many cases the matter becomes almost
personal with everyone in the locality,

The electrical display at the
Lewis and Clark Centennial will be
one of the most unique and attrac.
tive ever planned for like
enterprise. No expense has been
spared to make this feature most
attractive.
Ornate staff work now in process
on the Bridge of Nations at the
Lewis and Clark Exposition, will
give the structure the appearance of
an arched stone bridge of the most
beautiful design. The bridge is
over 1000 feet long, connecting the
mainland to the Government PENN
sula.
Several hundred Burlington, (Ia.)
people are planning to visit the
Lewis and Clark Exposition in July,
in order to be present at the ses-
sions of the American Librarians
annual meeting, which will be held
in Portland from July 2 to 7.
The railroad companies have ex-
tended the time limit for the shipp-
ing of exhibits from St. Louis to
Portland until the latter part of
March. This will serve materially
to better the appearance of the ex-
hibits for the Lewis and Clarke Ex-
position, as it will afford exhibitors
more time in which to assemble and
pack them.
The Union Pacific railroad is soon
to issue an attractive folder regard
ing the Lewis and Clark Exposi-
ion, which will be distributed
widely throughout the east and
middle west. Several other roads
lave issued, or will issue, similar
pamphlets.

Centennial Notes.

The Fire Department at the Lewis
and Clark Exposition is now prac-
ticing daily, and making tests of
water pressure. The department
has fully equipped station and is
able to cope with any blaze.
Hundreds of carloads of exhibits
for the Lewis and Clark Exposition
have already arrived and more come
every day. The cars are brought
into the grounds by way of spur
and are unloaded, the contents being
stored in the finished exhibits pal
aces.
Several concessions have been let
at the Lewis and Clark Centennial
which require considerably more
space than the original plans for the
"Trail" would permit. The Amuse,
ment Street will haveto be enlarged
so as to provide several Thousand
square feet Of additional space.
