An open attack on Americans inspir-
ed by luminosity against this country,
might necessitate American interven-
ton IN Mexico. Nothing short of this
would justify the undertaking 10y this
nation of SO enormous a task.
The United States cannot guarantee
to maintain order in Mexico. 1t can
establish refugees for American citizens,
and for other foreign residents, and de-
mand that these refugees be respected
1t can urge all foreign residents TO get
out OF the war-strlcken land, even at
the cost of considerable property loss
Such action is not only much wiser from
the standpoint of the United States,
but also from the standpoint Of the un-
fortunate Americans who are caught in
the present whirlpool Of civil war In
tervention would entail tremendous eff.
fort on the part of the intervening ma
ton, and at the same time would mean
fierce reprisal against the Americans
in Mexico who would be held respon-
sible for the invasion.
In all probability the best the United
States can do is let the MeXicans fight
themselves to a standstill. The violence
Just across the American border j, Of
fensive to the American sense Of decen-
cy, but intervention would do violence
Intervention would saddle this country
with probably the most difficult prob
lem of It's history, and would assuredly
fail to accomplish the immediate end
desired. --Clevela Plain Dealer.

MINNEsoTA's NOSE.
Curious History Of the jog In Our
Northern Boundary Line.

Northern Boundary Line.
How did the United States come to
get that small corner of land which
juts out from the extreme northern
boundary Of Minnesota? History Of
that little nose" which sticks out into
Canada from Minnesota and which
constitutes the northernmost point of
the United States is very interesting.
Under the treaty of 1888 the boundary
between the United States and British
possessions was fixed. A certain point
on the Lake of the Woods was mutual
~ agreed to as one starting point. this
being considered the headwaters of the
st. Lawrence river and great lakes
system.
AT that time it was not known wheth-
er this point was north or south of the
forty-ninth parallel. but it was known
to be close to it. The understanding
was that from that point the boundary
should go north or south to the forty
ninth parallel, as the case might be.
Later and more accurate surveys
showed that point was about twenty
five miles north Of the forty-ninth par
allel, and so at this place the boundary
makes a jog above that line.
Uncle Sam thus has a little piece Of
territory of about Il hundred square
miles in extent north of the general
boundary. And the joke of it is that
any n has to go by water in order to
reach this little piece Of territory unless
he wants to go through Canada.-Path-
finder.

S%harpenina a Pencil.

An expert manual training man talk
ed with the writer about so simple a
thing as sharpening a lead pencil. In
the first place, he says, the knife should
not be oversharp. but should be a
little dull. as if too sharp it will cut
quickly through the wood and cut
away the lead. Then, again. he says.
it is best to hold the pencil in the left
hand with the end to be sharpened
pointing away from you and to cut
away with a pushing cut rather than
toward you with a drawing cut. as
then the point of the pencil is rested
against the side of the thumb and is
sharpened by a draw cut stroke Of the
knife blade.-Scientifc American.

l''f SI2! School School

That patrons of the Langdon school
may feel the conduct and instruction of
their children will be of the best the
board of education desires to make
public the names and the qualifications
of the faculty for the ensuing school
year:
The general supervision will rest in
the hands of Su perintendent John H.
Stauff. A. B., University of Wisconsin.
1899. Mr.. Stauff enjoyed an active ex-
perience as teacher, high school princi-
pal. supervising principal, and superin-
tendent of city schools, during a term of
nine years in Wisconsin. His North
Dakota school experience before coming
to our city he enjoyed as teacher of the
science in the high school in Grafton.
His year with US speaks for itself.
Mr.. Henry Halla. A. B., principal of
the high school, received his academic
and collegiate training at Yanktons
college, South Dakota. His references
speak exceedingly we'll, he worked his
way" throughout his college career.
Mr.. Halla was captain of his college
football team, of his college track team
and of his college basket and baseball
teams. For four years he was given a
place on his "all-state team in football:
the fact that he spent several summers
playing on semi-professional baseball
teams is proof that Mr.. Halla may de-
velop the latent Langdon material. Mr..
Halla's attention will be given to the
sciences and mathematics. This at
least is the intention at the present
hour.
Miss Gertrude S%winburne, who came
to US a year ago needs no introduction
According to the present arrangement
Miss Swinburne will teach the Latin
classes, geometry and some other sub
jects which usually fall to any teache,
In consequence of "conficts".
Miss Allie Dickson. who has received

then her higher training in the state
university, where she enjoys a magniti
cent reputation as a student, will take
charge of the English IN the junior auc
senior school departments. Miss Dick

Miss Minnie Swanson, graduate of the

commentators.
Miss Alice Schneider of LeMars, Iowa.

will teach the German classes in the
high school and also those in freshman

the Oberlin professors under whom Miss
Schneider studied are to be relied upon
Langdon secures a we'll prepared high
school teacher in Miss SCHNEIDER.
The department of domestic art and
science will be placed In charge OF Miss
Edna V. Evans who sought that posi-
ton a year ago. At that time the board
was not prepared to pay the salary she
desired, Miss Evans holds a bachelor
of science degree from the agricultural
college at Brookings. The past two
summer sessions she has also spent in
further study in food nutrition, in mil
linery and in sciences allied so closely to
her chosen field.
MI. Charles Roller, graduate of the
River Falls normal in Wisconsin, will
again have charge of the manual train
ing from the fifth through the ninth
grades respectively. He will also teach
the class in algebra and one in elemen-
tary science, a new course, in the Junior
high school.
Miss Mary Cosgrove graduate of the
Valley City normal, will teach arithme-
tic, geography and writing in the junior
high school. Her work will consist of
