Peas and Beans all Summer

FL. FL. Burns, a farmer. has
been successful in raising two
crops of beans and peas off the
same ground during a season
and he is going to try and raise
the third crop of beans. The
beans which are now large
enough to eat were planted the
early part of July and the peas
were planted little latter. The
second crop of peas are now
forming and will be ready to eat
in week or so. Then who is it
than can say that this is not a
farming country. Places much
farther south would be glad to
boast of a fact like this.

A CUTTING Retort.

Before dinner, at the house of a rich
banker in Florence. Colonel (afterward
the Earl of, Dundas had said some
sharp things about the crudities OF
Americans. Notwithstanding this
rudeness it fell to his lot to take Nine.
Bonaparte Betsy Patterson) in to ia
BILE. He impertinently asked Nine.
Bonaparte If she had read Basil Halls
book on America, in which he pro-
nounced all Americans vulgarians.
Yes. Colonel Dundas," she an
swered. but it did not surprise me In
the least. If my compatriots were de-
scended from the Italians or Spanish,
any display of low breeding might as
tonish me; but. being the direct de-
scendants of Englishmen, 1t is natural
enough that they should be vulga-
rians."

Mrs. Taftss Loo of Travel.

In Mrs. Taft's tally Of miles she
easily outstrips the wives of all other
American presidents since that his
toric day when Liberty bell rang out
it's famous message from the town Of
Independence hall, says Human Life.
She has seen moonlight nights on the
broad waters of the Pacific from the
bridge of that monster ship, the Min
nesota; she has watched the dirt fly
at the big ditch down in the Panama
country, and she has risked her life
on the Transsiberia railway in that
5000 mile dash across the gigantic
width of Asia which the car planned
as a spectacular affair to catch the
worlds attention.
She has fished in the royal lake at
Ashiba, where the Taft party was
quartered in one Of the mikado's pal
aces during its japanese visit; she has
danced the queer native rigodon In the
Philippines; over the SHOWS Of st.
Petersburg she has had, fur bundled,
sleigh rides such as only Russia knows,
and to beguile transatlantic hours she
has played Switchboard with that gold
braided gentleman, the captain, whose
word is law on the liner.
On practically all Of the missions as
a popular peace envoy Mrs. Taft has
accompanied her husband. In the
matter of distance this would mean
more miles than one would care to
figure. for no American outside Of the
navy has ever covered so much Of the
earth's surface in behalf of the gov
eminent as the new president.

THE sMANcIPATED BEE.
A Story With Mighty Good Suffra-
qette Moral.

-
gette Moral.
A colony of bees is demonstration
of the capabilities of the weaker sex.
They manage everything and see to
everything. and the most ardent op-
poser of the suffrage must admit that
the work is well done, that the hive is
a model of cleanliness and order and
greatest wonder of all-the large fam
lily of many hundred members live
happily together. There is no i'll will
against the drones. They are housed
and fed until the winter shortage OF
food makes such philanthropy impossi-
BILE. There is no choice in the mat
ter of this determination, and no favor
is shown 1t is different matter to
the swarming, which drives half the
inmates out of the hive to seek new
home. But of all the incidents in the
lives of the bees that which stands out
with terrible insistence is the death OF
brood-a death which seems fitting
termination to life Of royal despot-
ism. 1t is not violent death; no sting
is inflicted to end her life, but crowd
Of workers closes round her, and in
this living prison she slowly dies.
There are other things about bees
quite as wonderful as their rule of life.
Their eyes reflect in a hundred facets
many things which perhaps we cannot
see, and those triple eyes set in the
center of the forehead have, it may be,
a powerful vision more wonderful still.
Bees may hear, sounds which are be-
yond our range of hearing with the
same superabundance of single sense.
These endowments are no part OF
their powers of work, for the eyes OF
the drones are yet larger and more
powerful than the eyes of the workers
"a necessary qualification, perhaps,
for those who look on. Do they crltl-
else the busy Marthas who toll around
them, as is often the way Of the idle?
If so, the workers heed them not, but
still 20 working on.

Cursory.

Eddie" said the teacher, "can you
give definition of cursory? The word
is generally used in connection with
public speaking. For example. we
often read that somebody made few
cursory remarks Please write a SEN
tence containing the word cursory."
After a brief struggle Eddie evolved
this masterpiece:
Yesterday my pa helped my ma to
hang pictures. and when the ladder
fell after pa had climbed to the top
Of it he bumped his head against the
corner of the dining room table and
then made a few cursory remarks."-

Committee Of Ministers Dis
close Alleged Discrepancies.
Was Formerly Pastor of the
Congregational Church
in This City.

The following article in regard
to the affairs of the Rev. Stanley
b. Lathrop Of Ashland, formerly
pastor Of the congregational
church in this city, appeared in
the Superior Telegram in last
Fridays edition.
Ashland, Wis. Aug. 27.-For
several weeks past an investiga-
ton committee composed of Dr..
A. III. Miner Of Madison, state
registra of the Congregational
church of Wisconsin. the Rev
John Gibson Of Odanah and the
Rev. d. Ellis Evans, pastor of the
Congregational church of Ash
land. has been going over the al
fairs of the Rev. Stanley Lathrop
of this city. This committee
was appointed by the state board
of the Congregational church and
by the board of directors of
Northland college.
Mr.. Lathrop is prominent G.
A. r. veteran, former pastor at
Washburn, and until his resigna-
ton a few days ago he was pastor
at Scion Springs and also at
Minong.
Following the investigation,
property amounting to several
thousand dollars, belonging to
Lathrop, is being appraised and
will be turned over to Northland
college. His Ashland residence
valued at $1,000; his cottage on
Ma0aline island valued at 81, 900;
his library of 1880 volumes. val
ued at 81 per volume, and his
printing press-all aggregating
about 000-will be turned over
to the college. Mr.. Lathrop
claims to have only $500 in the
bank and the Investigators have
been unable to find any other
funds.
Mr.. Lathrop, until couple of
months ago, was member OF
the Ashland school board and has
been a leader in the G. A. r., in
church work. in temper ance and
ia college work, and the action
of the committee has created a
decided sensation.
The story of the case is best
told in circular letter issued by
the board of directors of North
land college and the resolutions
adopted by that body.
The Rev. Stanley E. Lathrop,
it is stated in the report, became
connected with North Wisconsin
academy as it's financial agent in
1896 at salary of $1,000 per
year. He continued in this posi-
ton as financial secretary and on
that salary until 1898, when by
vote of the directors an arrange
ment was made by which he was
to receive 10 per cent of his col
lectiOnS.
In 1902 Mr.. Lathrop became
