 Sournment for Easter.

 President Golovin apoiogized in be- half of the house for the proceedings last night during which Zuraboff. Socialist. made a savage attack on the army and the government which for time threat ened to precipftate trouble and ended in M. zurabcfr being deprived of the right to the floor.
 M. Golovin said that in view of yes terday's reflection on the army. he considered it to be his duty to an- nounce that the house regarded the army, which was true to the father land and whose supreme head was the emperor as deserving of all respect and gratitude.
 It was understood that this apology was acceptable to Premier stolypin. The socialists. however, retorted with a signed resolution declaring that M. t3OlOVlnS WOI0S NiiO tiyes of the house and were opposed to the dignity of parliament and sug- gested the election of another presi- dent.

ARE RISING
THRONE or MONTENEGRO BE-
 COMES MORE sHAKY.
PeopIe of Principality are Tired of the Excesses of Prince Nicholas and Serious Rebellion
 fs Threatened.

Vienna April 90. 1.-The revolutionary movement in Montenegro where mil- itary government has been proclaimed. and armed bands are reported 10 De marching on the capital, IS assuming A serious character, according to de- spatches arriving here by way of Ra- gusa.
 Disorder is said to be rapidly spres1d- ing throughout the country. The cen- ter of the discomfort Is at Andrievi- ca. the headquarters of the Vasso- jeyfch. numerically the strongest clan fin the principality of Montenegro. The rising is attributed largely to the ai- legged attempts of Prince Nicholas 10 override the constitution which he be- slowed on the country in 1905 and also to his incessant drain on the pub llo purse.
 The prince is accused of utilizing the taxes and other State funds to swell his private banking account. Even sums received from Emperor Nicholas and Emperor Francis Joseph from time to time for specific purpos- es of Montenegro are said to have been diverted to the enlargement of the prince's income or spent in his at tempt to ape the customs of the courts of more important countries.
 The marriage of his daughter Hele- na to King Victor Emmanuel of Italy increased Prince Nichoias's ideas or his own importance and caused conse- quent widening of the estrangement between the ruler and the people of Montenegro.
 The grant of a constitution to Mon- tenegro turned out to be a barren gift and as soon as this was realized dissensions became pronounced and emigration increased so rapidly that 25 900 Montenegrans left the coun- try during the first three months or this year.
 The cabinets appointed by Prince Nicholas have been turned out by the psrliament one after another almost us rapidly as they were appointed. The attempt to suppress the radical independent newspapers (the govern mont being accused of instigating the destruction of the offices of two pa- pers at Nikshitch and Podgorttza) famed the revolutionary flames.
 The clans were summoned to meet at Andrievica and the delegates Of three principal clans all heavily arm ed at a stormy conference decided to send re representatives, to Cettinje and demand that Prince Nicholas dismiss the Tomanovics cabinet.
 The prince replied by declaring martial law and calling out the mili- tia to prevent the mountaineers from entering the capital. The movement in Montenegro Is being closely watch ed by the Austrian government which country fears 1t may spread to the province of Novipazar (situated be- tween Montenegro and Servia) where Austria Is responsible for the preser- vation of order under the treaty of Bcrlta but circles well acquainted with the conditions in Montenegro be- lteva that Prince Nicholas will sue ceed in suppressing the outbreak.

First Graduating Class.

It may be Of. interest to the
people of this town and school
district to know that, on May II,
the first class will be graduated
from the Wibaux High School.
Although the class Of 1907 is few
in number, although it is con6n-
ed to one sex, and that the fair
er, it gives me pleasure to state
that it redeems itself in quality.
AS yet, neither Of. the Senior
girls have been absent nor tardy
during the present school year.
This fact, together with their
studious habits and careful pre-
paration for the daily work, is
worthy Of special mention.
The senior class has already
passed three final examinations,
as follows: Physics, after which
they took up the study Of Geol-
ogy; Solid Geometry, followed by
Comic sections and a review of
Arithmetic;. English history, fol
lowed by a four weeks review in
both Civics and English.
i AS we have. mo- RECORD Of the
High School grades for the pre-
ceeding years and as the girls
are so evenly matched in their
work, we had to resort to Tipping
the penny to decide upon the
Valedictorian and Salutatorian.
1t resulted in Grace Rice for
Valedictory and Martena O'Neal
for Salutatory.
| The other members of the High
School have kindly consented to
help with the commencement pro
gram; so, with their help, an ad.
dress to the friends of education,
and special music, we hope tc
render a full program interest,"
ing and instructive.

be held at. eight o'clock, Friday
evening, May II. Further an.
nouncement will be made through

gram for commencement week
will be published.
