selves accustomed to wonders performed
by this marvellous musician, but as the
program proceeded and we heard him in

About Some New School Laws.

To the CoURIER-DEMoCRAT Langdon, N. D.
There are a few changes and innova-
tons in the school laws that will no
doubt be of interest to many of your
readers and which | would much like
if you will give space to as news matter
in the columns of your paper. The
changes to which l would particularly
desire to direct the attention to your
readers are: Section 232, relative to
compulsory school age, eight to sixteen
years. Section 50, minimum school
ter N, seven months, under penalty of
losing tuition funo appropriation.
Section l, Chapter 80, the rural aid
bill and Section 236, medical inspection.
These different matters might with
mutual benefit be taken up by the
papers of the county from time to time
as space is found conveniently available
as they are all of importance to the
welfare of the schools and their patrons.
SO far over 600 pupils are entered in
the corn growing contest of our county
schools this year. Each contestant is
expected to send in ten ears of the
best corn raised not later than Novem-
Der LIST. The contest will be held at
Langdon and will be some time during
November under the direction of Prof.
Randlett of the state agricultural col
iege at Fargo Besides the cash prizes
to be awarded III three fourths of the
districts, several of the boys and girls
growing the best corn will be taken
to the Boys and Girls Institute, which
is held under the direction of the
agriculture college in December and
which continues during one entire
week. This institute offers valuable
work to the boys and girls who are
privileged to attend in the way Of
Judging stock, grain growing, butter
and bread making, sewing, ETC., and
ought to give invaluable suggestions
and inspirations to those boys and girls
who are to become the future farmers
and farmers wives of this county. Each
county IN the state is permitted to send
eight representatives to this meeting.
A similar institute was keld last year
n was attended by 95 pupils from
different towns over the state. The
work is excellent, being given by the
professors and instructors of the college
and this matter is one that should be
kept we'll in mind by those who our
poses competing in the corr growing
contest, More definite information as
to date of the corr exhibit here in
Langdon together with a list of the
prizes. ETC., will be made public through
the county press as soon HIS the matters
are finally settled.
The state educational association hold
Its annual meeting on the LIST, End and
3rd of November, programs of which
will very soon now be announced by
the papers over the state. This meet
ing promises to be an exceptionally
good one and of interest to school
officers as well as teachers. Mr.. Neil
Z. Macdonald, of our own county, who
now holds the Office Of the state in.
spector of rural, graded and consolidat.
ed schools is president of association
this year. The meeting is one that
should have a good representation from
among the teachers of Cavalier county,

The Game of Quoits.
A good game to play on the lawn at
this season of the year is quoits. A
QUOT is a lattish ring Of iron, general
ly from eight and one-fourth to nine
and one-half inches in external diam
eter and between one and two inches
in breadth. 1t is convex on the upper
side and slightly concave on the I'M
der, so that the outer edge curves
down and is sharp enough to stick into
the ground. The mode Of playing is
as follows: Two pins, called 'hobs,"
cen to twenty-four inches apart, and
the players, who are divided into two
parties. stand at one hob and in
regular succession throw their quoits
iof which each player has two) as near
to the other 'hob" as they can. The
points are counted as in bowls or in
curling. To facilitate the sticking of
the quoits at the point where they
strike the ground a "clay end"-that
is, a fiat circle Of clay about one or two
inches in thickness and one and one
half feet in radius-is placed around
each 'hob." This requires to be kept
moist and should have sawdust
%sprinkled owe it. The quot when it
is thrown is grasped with the right
hand by II side and pitched with an
upward and forward jerk of the hand
and arm, which gives it a whirling
motion and causes it to strike the
ground With it's edge.-Philadelphia

VOTES TO BREAK
RUSSIAN TREATY.
Only One VIE Against SuIzer
ResolsiIon il House

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Sulzer
joint resolution for the termination
of the treaty OF 1892, between the
United States and Russia, because of
the Iatter's discrimination against
Jewish American citizens, passed the
house last night, 800 to 1. The one
negative vote was cast by Repre-
sentative MaIby. OF New York.
A practically identical resolution
BY Senator Culberson. OF Texas. is
pending in the senate and favorable
action OF both houses would be
necessary to make either resolution
effective. Both the snlzer and Gull
berson resolutions would direct the
president to give Russia. immediate
~. the years notice necessary for
the complete abrogation Of the
treaty, that has been In force nearly
10 years.
An attempt, led by Representative
olmsted, OF Pennsylvania, TO modify
the Sulzer resolution so as to avoid
making the direct charge that Russia
has violated the treaty in refusing
to recognize the passports OF Ameri-
can Jews. was defeated, 1S4 to 115.
Prominent republicans declared that
the house should not go on record
as charging violation of the treaty,
but should adopt language stating
that Russia had so construed the
treaty that the United States could
no longer be a party to 1t.
THE sentiments announced here
today" declared Republican Leader
Mann, ARE such that II they were
uttered in another parliamentary
body they might bring such resent
ment as would provoke war"
Mr.. Mann added that If the United
States asserted that a discrimination
against races was a violation OF a
treaty, II might weaken its own atti-
tude toward the exclusion Of Orien-
tails.
The debate in the house bristled
with charges that Russia's attitude
was an offense against the United
States: and that her exclusion Of
American Jews who bore properly
certified passports was an affroat to
this government.
