Tho Greatest Historian.

BY common consent the greatest Of
all historians in Thucydides. the Greek
contemporary of Pericles and author
of the history of the P-eloponnesian
war. One of the greatest tributes that
can be paid 10 him is that. according
to the estimate OF a very able critic,
we have a more exact account of 8
long and %eventful period by Thucyd-
ides than we have of any period in
modern history, equally long and event
full, and yet all this is compressed into
a single volume. For concise, vigor.

yesterday, who is now teaching in
Goodrich, N. D. The Goodrich
paper says "All of last years
teachers, Misses Dytch, Doscher,

dition of Miss Gertie Ashley, will
be in charge and the commendable
work of last year will be continued
to the very great credit Of Good

Miss Plattner passed through the
town of Heaton, thirty miles east
of Goodrich, which was almost
totally destroyed by a tornado last
week Monday. According to the
report in the Goodrich paper the
storm only lasted about thirty
seconds, but not a building in the
entire town escaped being either
blown to pieces or moved from it's
foundation.
Among the buildings destroyed
were three large elevators and a
brick bank building. Two people
we're killed and four seriously in-
jured, and the property loss is es-
timated at 500, 1000.
