Huao and the Barber.

When Victor Hugo lived in Paris in
the Place Royale he used to be shaved
by a barber named Brassier. A friend
of the poet asked the barber one day
If he was busy. Il hardly know which
way to turn" was the reply. I'VE
have to dress the hair Of thirty ladies
for sotrees and balls" And NJ. Bras.
sier showed the list to his friend. A
few days after the friend returned and
inquired about the thirty ladies. "Ah.
monsieur" said the barber sadly, Il
was not able to attend half the num-
Der, and l have lost many good Gus
toners through NJ. Victor Hugo" 1t
appear} that the poet when about to
be SHAVED was suddenly inspired and
seized the first piece Of papef he could
find to write poem. Hugo hastily
left the shop with his unfinished
verses, on the back Of which were the
pamess and addresses Of the thirty la
dies, many of whom waited In vain
for their coiffeur.

New York, N. Y, March 15.-(Spec.
ial.)-Legal proceedings are again
pending in the supreme court of New
York state in the suit brought by
some Of the stockholders of the Unit
ed States Express company to take
the control Of the company out OF
the hands of the family of the late
Senator Thomas C. Plat, resently de-
ceased. Edward T. Plat and Frank
H. Plat, sons of the senator, are
treasurer and counsel respectively Of
the company. The stockholders, who
object to the Plat control, are IN
able to muster a voting strength Of
more than half of the 100000 shares
of the stock, but a two.thirds major
ity is required to call an election, ac-
cording to the special law under which
the company was incorporated. This
majority the so called minority stock
holders have never been able to OBJ
tain, and the courts have thus far
refused to grant their petition for
an examination of the books, an open
meeting and an election. The pro-
testing stockholders charge that un-
der Senator Platt's management the
affairs of the company have not been
efficiently handled.

NORTH DAKOTA WILL SPELL.

NORTH DAKOTA WILL SPELL.
The st. Louis Globe-Democrat says
Of the movement in North Dakota
for better spelling:
North Dakota is going to learn to
spell if the plans worked out by the
educators of the state for a revival
of interest in correct spelling works
out.
Arrangements have been complet-
ed, according to tie Boston Herald,
for series of old-fashioned spell:
ing bees, to be inaugurated in the
district schools all over the state I'M
der the auspices of the department
of education, and it is proposed to
continue the new departure for some
years to come if sufficient interest
can be maintained. Just what at
fractions will be used with this end
in view have not fully matured, but
the promoters Of the scheme believe
ways will be found of making the
spelling matches as popular as they
were in many sections of the country
half century ago, before the SPELL
ing reforms of various brands broke
out.
The county superintendent in
nearly every county in the state arc
already mapping out the preliminary
matches in their respective counties.
These will take the form of county
contests between representatives of
the different schools, to be held as
soon as the different schools shall
have had an opportunity through
spelling bees to enthuse the boys and
girls and to pick out the best SPELL
ers Official lists Of words will be
sent out in order that all contestants
may have an equal chance.
Business men, professional men
and farmers will be asked to offer
prizes for the first, second and third
best county spellers The county
champions will participate In final
state championship contest, when
prizes aggregating at least 500. will
be offered. Any pupils of the Eighth
and lower grades will be eligible in
the preliminary contests.

reasonable to believe that it must be

PEELED to admit that the two institu-
tons can work to the great good of
humanity if they keep distinctly in
their spheres. If the greed for
money is to supercede the desire on
the part of one to alleviate the suffer
ings of humanity and the other to
save the souls of men from perdition,
then the stronger of the two will pre-
vail.
What is the remedy? The church
we concede to be the highest insti-
tuition in the world; established by
Jesus Christ, whom we believe to be
the Son of God, and we are taught
in Holy Writ that Jesus went into
the temple of God, and cast out all
them that sold and bought in the tenn
ple,' etc, therefore, it is the duty of
the leaders in the church and the
lodge to not pollute the church with
the financial affairs of the lodge, and
the church ought to realize its ability
to perform all of its duties without the
aid of organizations that are not of a
religious nature.
