PARIS, June m.-The ability to scream
sa we'd the lives Of u number OF babies at
Bilaincourt, a suburb of Paris. People
passing by a creche there to-day heard a
chorus Of terrified infants. The screaming
was kept up for hours and finally some one
entered the place and found fifteen babies
under two years Of age the sole OCCUPANTS.
All were screaming d!stressfully. They
had been alone for twenty-four hours
and were hungry and helpless.
The creche was established by Able
Biagaui, who lately, upon entering the
house, found that the matron had died
suddenly. This 80 shocked him that he
fell dead, The care Of the creche then
devolved upon a philanthropic but infrm

and the overw helming responsibility that

THE CALVO DOCTRINE.

One of the matters which will in
all probability be settled to some ex-
tent at the conference at Rio Jeneiro
which Secretary Root is attending is
what is known as the Calvo Doctrine
vague expression of opinion in ref
erence to principle of national re-
lationship which has become of con-
siderable importance to the Latin
American states.
The countries of South America have
been somewhat slow in paying some of
the obligations due the citizens of for
eign states, and as a result of their
dilatory tactics armed force has been
used against the nation and even the
revenues have been seized to pay the
same. The majority of these debts
were for loans advanced to the coun-
tries by foreign capitalists, and in
as much as the South American ma
lions are largely dependent upon the
alien money lender the matter of COL
lection has become a very important
one.
The doctrine which has become as
ISOLATED with the name of Calvo,
though IT. was the work Of Drago. the
Argentina minister Of foreign affairs.

portunity to travel the country pierced
by the Great Northern know that it is
one of the richest portions of the great
northwest, and that 1t is teeming with
developing wealth, and improving so
rapidly that even those who see it
frequently are astonished at the
changes made in short intervals.

WHAT BECOMES OF
THE C|TY'SDEAD
HORSES
How Their Disposal Becomes a
Commercial Enterprise "A
Unique Cemetery.

Of all the places in Grand Forks
county, perhaps the least interesting
and most unattractive at first glance
is that where most of the horses are
buried. 1t is news to some to hear
that this cemetery" is northwest of
the city, but there is no danger of it's
being mistaken for beautiful Memorial
park, for 1t is about a mile and half
further along the section road.
1t is with no elaborate ceremonies
or long delays that the horses that
fall on the strrets Of Grand Forks
these hot days is buried. After the
proper forms with the health oficials
have been gone through with, the city
or the owner of the animal usually
pays the undertaken" to remove the

THE STATES SCHOOL FUND.

1t is probable that no state in the
union is richer in the public endow-
ment of its educational institutions
than North Dakota. In fact the fund
is so large and the field of investment
so limited that the great question
which will present itself in the future
will be the means of investing the
fund in interest bearing securities.
Discussing the matter recently State
Superintendent of Public instruction
Stockwell tersely remarks:
The grant made by the federal gov.
eminent for the aid of the common
schools and state institutions was ap-
proximately 3,170.000 acres of land. Of
this, 500, 900 acres have been sold. The
sale of this small amount has created
an endowment fund for the common
schools of $4,429,O21.6S. OF this
amount $1,s1S,7S4.43 has been paid in.
For the various state institutions an
endowment of $81,S18, 621.55 has been
created, of which $326,5S9 was in cash.
On this endowment the interest is 3
per cent for deferred payments on
land, and usually per cent on money
invested in bonds. 1t is not difficult
to see that our schools are richly en-
dowed. II the balance of our lands
should be sold at a minimum of SO
an acre, it would create a fund of
$S3, 100000. The care of such trust
fund is no small task and demands
the most thorough business ability.
During the past two years the board Of
university and school lands has on
hand to invest over 100000 an
amount many times greater than any
previous board has had to handle. The
necessity of having it at interest,
coupled with the limited filed for in
vestment. has caused the board much
anxiety, which we, as secretary of the
board, have keenly felt. Practically
every school bond offered the board
has been bought. State bonds have
been bought and large blocks of school
bonds held by outside parties have
been bought at premium, thousands
have been loaned on first mortgages
on farm lands. The sum total Of the
investments for the last biennial per-
iod is. In round numbers, $780, 900.

and was expressed in note addressed
to the minister of his country at Wash
ington. enunciated the doctrine that
the citizens of foreign countries had
no superior rights in the civil reme-
dies against the nation or even the
people of the nation, than the citizens
of the nation themselves. And that
in as much as the citizens OF the ma
ton who held claims against it were
compelled to rely on the courts for
their redress, the foreign creditors
should be compelled to do the same
thing rather than call in the armed
power of their own country and COL
lect the debt by force of arms.
The doctrine is new one in inter-
national law arising out of new con-
ditions which the rush OF modern COM
mercialism has developed. 1t ex-
presses sound principle of justice
and will in all probability become as
we'll recognized as the Monroe Doc
trine of this country.
Certain it is that some stand will
be taken on the matter which will
guarantee the weaker nations of the
south protection against any abuse
of the assumed right by the stronger
nations of Europe.
