 Of him it is recorded that, one of his head boys having insulted a young French viscount who came to the school to demand satisfaction, he hog- ged the viscount first for the blood thirsty intentions and next his friend who was the bearer of his challenge.
 Dr. Valpy, too, who edited an edition of the classics, was potent wielder of the rod. Archdeacon Groom, who was pupil of his, tells a story in illustra- ton of his prowess. One of the boys had been logged by the redoubtable dominic, and the lads father came to complain.
 "Sir,' said Valpy to him, 'I. logged your son because he richly deserved 1t. If he again deserves it, I shall fog him again, and," rising, 'if you come here, sir, interfering with my duty I shall fog you"

The Pirates.

The Chicago News fails to name the hero of this story, but has it that the visitor to the home of we'll knowr Hoosier State author found his three youngsters romping in the hallway.
 What are you playing, boys" he inquired.
 we are playing pirates," elucidated the smallest.
 Pirates? Why, how can you play pirates in Indiana? There are no seas bordering on this state."
 "Oh, we don't need any seas. We are literary pirates, like pa."
 And five minutes later chorus of yells from behind the barn told that the hand that yields the pen can also wield the shingle.

Sour stomach, Heartburn, Cankcf
 Sore Mouth Cured by Mi-o-na
 Sick headaches are caused by indi- gestion and a general disturbed condi- tion of the stomach.
 Cure the indigestion, and the head ache, nausea, heartburn, sour stomach, and that "all in" feeling will vanish.
 Mi-o-na tablets will cure indigestion CT any other stor.ach trouble. They will relieve almost instantly. All leading druggists have so much faith in them that they will give you your money back if they don't.
 Mi-o-na cures by making the stom- ach strong enough to produce enough gastric juices to digest all the food you want to eat. It promptly puts new life and energy into the overworked and played-out walls of the stomach.
 Use Mi-o-na for a week, and you can eat what you want any time you want it, and take pleasure in doing it.
 Your blood will be richer, redder, purer after taking Mi-o-na, and it only costs 50 cents a. large box.
 ''I was speedily cured of stomach complaint by Mi-o-na. Anything I can say in favor of Mi-o-na is not too strong. William Hess, Benton liar bOr. Mich.

OLD SONGS AND
 ANTIQUE COSTUMES
Interesting Program at North Church Chapel Last Evening Pleases
 Large Attendance.

A large attendance enjoyed an even- ing of patriotic songs at the North Chapel last night. Mrs. William Moth nagle arranged the program for the evening. Mrs. S. M. Garlick is the chairman of committee on entertain ments. Many of the ladies were ar rayed in Colonial costumes.
 Mrs. Garlick introduced the singers and gave a brief explanatory descrip- tion of the author and the circumstan- ces under which the songs were writ ten. The program opened with a piano duet by Misses Coggswell and Durand. Miss Nanchen Adams sang "The Old Folks at Home,'' written by Stephen Collins Foster and sung by B. P Chris ty the famous minstrel Miss Adams sang as. an encore s"Comin' thro' the rye.'' MT. Wallace of the church choir sang "Tenting on the Old Camp Ground,'' by Walter Kittredge of Mer- rimaek, N. H. The song was written in a few minutes after the author had been drafted and was waiting to go to the front. The song has retained its popularity for AT years. My Old Ken lucky Home," was rendered by Miss Esther Berg. Miss Carrie Seeleye read Captain Ben's Choice" Gray Quaintance sang '"The Battle Hymn of the Republic by Julia Ward Howe. For an encore he sang Dream of the U. s. Az
 Misses Esther Davis and Hulda Chapman sang and Bruce Simonds was heard at the piano. The program ended with a chorus, Yankee Doodle the origin of the air of which is lost in the dim and distant past. It was sung in France, Holland and in Eng land long before the colonies were es- tablished and was grafted on the Am erican people in the French and Indian war when Dr. Richard Shuckburg as a practical joke, applied it's words to the continentals whose plain and uncouth appearance contrasted with the bril- liant uniforms of the British. The, air immediately became popular and led the Americans to victory over the very forces who had applied it to them in derision.
 The ladies who assisted at the ta- bles were: Miss Nothnagle, Miss Adams, Miss Glenna Potter, Miss May Beach, Mrs. Quaintance and Mrs. F. H. Riley. A trio of stringed instru- ments was heard, consisting of Louis Samnis viola; Herbert Bottomley, vio- lin: Clarence Anderson, cello.

THE STATB TAX.
Treasurer Patten Speaks on the Sub.
 feet to Farmers Association.

} Hartford, Feb. 26.-State Treasurer Patten spoke before the Farmers As- sociation yesterday on the matter of a state tax saying that in 1859 the state tax was 1 1-2 mills and rose to mills in 1S65-6, the last state tax being l mill in 1890. There are now two bills be- fore the Legislature, one for tax of 1-2 mill and the other for 1 mill.
 The state, he thought, was Justlhed in asking the towns to pay the tax. Twenty-seven towns would pay 75 per cent. of the tax. He urged the mem- Fbers of the General Assembly to exer- else economy and said that while the credit of the state is good it is possible to lose it.

very best of health, and had attended
school during the forenoon. After dinner
while walking along with one of the other
children he suddenly fell to the ground.
He was quickly carried into the house,
but while yet in his mothers arms his
little spirit took its flight. The shock of
his sudden death has been hard for the
parents to bear and they have the most
heartfelt sympathy of the entire commu-
nifty.
The funeral took place on Sunday at

largely attended.

THE BANNER

Mr.. Peter Steele, the president and
general manager Of this property, came
in, last Tuesday evening, from Mime
apolis, Mimi, where he has been on
business for the campany He is very
much pleased with the work done at
the mine during his absence and highly
compliments the parties he left in
charge and the men who have assisted
in the work, for the excellent progress
they have made. Mr.. Steele possesses
that rare qualification, for manager of
a mining property, of being very popu-
lar with the miners and other employ
ees. and thus being able to obtain faith
full and effective work, without any
in this industry, as the men all know
that if they have any "kick" coming
and will lay the matter before him, they
will get ''sqare deal By his excel
lent business qualifications and unseIf-
ish attention to the business of the
compnny, he has succeeded in putting
this property in financial shape to be-
come one of the prominent mining prop
critics of this district.
The mill level tunnel, by actual meas
urement, yesterday, was in 937 feet, and
has cut several lodges that show very
good values. Mr.. Steele prospectsd
these ledRes while here and was very
much encouraged with the result.
They expect to cut the Banner ledge by
driving the tunnel about 400 feet far
ther, with the almost certainty of en-
countering several good stringers or
veins before they reach the Banner vein.
Mr.. Steele will leave tomorrow for
Minneapolis.
