into the Leader office by Nels Her
red this week which shows what
can be raised in this country.
One a IL inches long is 81 inches
in circumference. This is the
first year Mr.. Herred has put in a
field Of corn and from the Is acres
seeded on June 10Th he will gather
a great many bushels. The corn
stalks grew only about five feet
high but they were weighted down
with the heavy ears which were
all ripe before the first frost on
September 18th.
Mr.. Herred also had a splendid
field Of oats this year. He thresh-
ed last week and it went 81 bushels
to the acre. It weighed AZ pounds
to the bushel which is the heaviest
he says he has ever raised in this
state.
This state will soon have as
good a name as q corn state ss
Iowa now claims.

Mr.. Foster says that the cattle on

details some of the times at which a

When a German comedian opens his

When comedy acrobat falls down

When performer asks the orches-

When black-face comedian says

When a performer starts to rise

performer thinks his clothes have

When the drummer suddenly beats
the drum during comedians song
and the latter stops and looks in his
direction.
When a tramp comedian turns
around and discloses a purple patch

When the funny member of the

THE HINDU sCHooLBoY.

The pupils in schools in India are
much more amenable to discipline

t. L. Pennell, the author of Among
the Wild Tribes Of the Afghan
Frontier" says that the Indian school
boy has not yet lost the ancient tradi-
tional respect and love Of the pupil
for the master, and therefore wins the
sympathy and interest OF his instruct
Drs.
His chief failing is his incorrigible
propensity to what is known in Eng
lish. schools as "sneaking;" schoolboy
homer and esprit de corps are being

the social status of the boys in an
Indian school than in English schools.
In the Bannu Mission School every
class of the community is represented
from the son OF the rich landowner
to that of the laborer. from the Brah-
man to the outcast, and not only do
they get on well together without the
poor boy having to feel by taunt or
treatment that he is unwelcome or
despised, but have often come across
genuine acts of charity which have
been done quite naturally and without
any ostentation; In fact. such deeds
are kept secret In the majority OF
cases.
Thus a poor boy. unable to buy his
books. has had them supplied to him
by the richer boys of his class. In
one case a poor boy was left quite
destitute by the death of his father.
and some OF the boys arranged a small
subscription month by month to en-
able him TO remain at school.

ATTEMPT TO ROB GRAVE.
Manitowoc Hears of Endeavor to
Steal Priests BODY.

Manitewoc Hears of Endeavor to
Steal Priests Body.
Another sensational attempt to rob
the grave of Nordheim priest who
died two years ago was made, accord
ing TO reports received at the district
attorneys Office in Manitowoc, and
which are now being investigated.
The priest, who died two years ago,
is said to have instructed his house
keeper, now a resident of Milwaukee,
to take his body to that city, but when
she attempted to carry out these in
structions she was prevented from do
ing so by the enraged villagers. Two
unsuccessful attempts have been made
to secure the body and that of Sunday
is the third. The man implicated in
Sundays escapade is said to be Rus
sian Jew and was caught in the very
act of exhuming the body.
