The curious boycott Of the press In
the Berlin parliament had precedent

Harper's Weekly recalls that the per
son involved was no less a celebrity
than the late Daniel O'Connell. He
condemned the inaccuracy Of the par
liamentary reports, but he forgot to
make allowance for acoustic difficulties
and the buzz of intervening converse
ton. He charged the reporters with
the malicious suppression Of his speech

port him at all. Dan stormed and

1871 fell foul of the press in the same

!! BAYFIELD,

From the Press:


Larry Nolan one of the leading
farmers in the town of Newbold, has
invented process for pulling stumps
which promises to be of untold ualue
to the farmers of the county. His
method which has already attracted
widespread attention is as follows.
With two inch auger bore hole
perpendicularly into the stump
about two feet. Pour into this hole
one pint of mixture of equl parts OF
nitric and sulphuric acids. Then
plug the hole tightly with a plug
dipped ia melted parafine. In thirL,
days the stump SO treated will b.
a charred, PUPPY mass, roofs and all
and may be spread over the soil as i
firtllizer with a shovel. Mr., Nolt l.
has just stumped sixteen acres al
land on his Newbold farm in this
manner, at a c)rt Of four cents casl
and five minutes labor per stump
The John r. Davis Lumber companu
at Phillips has adopted Mr.. Nolan s
process in clearing several hundred
acres of land in Price county.

Growth of Pity,

No one formerly looked on with any
pity or even horror at punishments
which are now found too dreadful for
description. Men were broken on the
wheel, were burned at the stake, were
racked, were cut up alive. No one
seems to have felt any pity for their
agonies. Men were put into noisome
prisons, where, with bad air and in
sufficient food, they died unnoticed
and unpitied. 1t Is very different now.
Human hearts are more tender.
