TO APPEAR
ON SAME PLATFORM
WITH SEN. GRONNA

Lakota. N. D., Nov. 24.-state su-
perintendent N. c. Macdonald refused
to appear on the same platform with
Senator Gronna at the teachers in
stitute held in FLakota last week be-
cause Of Gronna's lack Of loyalty and
his persistent pro- ermanism. On
directors day at the institute arrange
ments had been made to have the
Lakota politician address the conven-
tion together with the governor and
the state superintendent and pro-
grams were accordingly printed.
However, when the latter gentlemen
reached Lakota and were shown the
program Macdonald >flatly refused to
have anything to do with the conven-
ton If he was to appear with a dis
loyal citizen, such as he considered
the senator. The result was that
Gronna was dropped.

TRANSPORTATION
MUST BE FURNISHED
SCHOOL CHILDREN

. Bismarck, N. D.. Nov. 24.-school
boards must furnish transportation
for consolidated schools to all patrons
except those that live less than two
miles and a half from the school. ac-
cording to an opinion by Attorney
General William LANCER. The attor-
ney general writes on the matter:
1T is my opinion that school boards
are required to provide for tranpor-
tation and must furnish actual con-
veyance If insisted upon by the school
patrons. with the exception that it
does not apply to pupils living less than
two and one-half miles from school.
Il note that a number of boards in
sist that all they must do in the case
of consolidated schools is to offer to
pay the costs of transportation and
that 1t is up to the. school patrons to
provide a conveyance. and I wish to
say that these. < clearly in error.
,unauestionahly- the, school board. un-
der said law, must, actually furnish
conveyance. except as stated before.

WILL SHARE
IN M'CLINTOCK ESTATE

Ruby, N: D., Nov. 23.-The will Of
the late w. d. McClintock, prominent
Rugby banker, was not admitted to
probate because. the widow and sole
legatee under the terms Of the will,
petitioned the county court not to adj
nit it. 1t appeared, as the deceased
had not specifically excluded the chill
dren, under the terms of the will. that
they were entitled to their share of the
estate under the order Of succession
the same as If no will had been made.
The widow was DESTROYS of having all
the children share in the estate and so,
petitioned the court. She also petit
toned that two of the sons of the de-
ceased be appointed as administrators
and waived her right to such appoint
ment. The will was not attached by
the heirs and there was no adverse ap-
pearance whatsoever.

A Once Legal Fiction.

In the legal calendar the 24th of Oc- tOber is worthy of notice, as on that day, in 1852, two individuals, though personally known to no one and enjoy ing an extensive reputation among law yers, ceased to exist in England. These persons were John Doe and Richard Roe, and no two persons were more ire quently referred to in legal documents. In every process of ejectment, instead of the real parties to the suit being named, John Doe, plaintiff, sued Rich ard Roe, defendant. Their names were also inserted in criminal proceedings. This fiction was introduced into Eng fish legal practice in the time of Ed ward III, in consequence, it was said. of u provision in Magma Charta which required the production of witnesses before every criminal trial, and hence forth John Doe and Richard Roe were inserted as the names of the alleged witness, custom which was carried across the Atlantic to this country Indianapolis News.

The Judge Hit Back.

A late police magistrate was a most Eainstaking judge in all his cases, and An important ones it was his custom to defer summing up until the next sit &ing of the court. On one occasion he gave an exhaustive decision on case, after which the lawyer for the plain <iff rose and questioned 1t.
 4Pardon me-" said his worship. "I cannot allow you to reopen the case MEter I have given my final decision. II may be wrong. but that is my opin- 60n''
 sY'he lawyer quickly replied:
 "qhen, your worship, know 1t is no use knocking my head against brick wall suppose I must sit down."
 line magistrate adjusted his eye classes and, looking sarcastically at 1he lawyer, said:
 ~Sir, know 1t Is no use you knock nng your head against brick wall, but N may add that know of no one who &pIid perform such an operation with ness injury to himself than you."-Case mud Comment.

Old Lord Mayors, Ranquets.

There usec to be a good deal of say xgery about London's lord mayors hnHquets, even in times comparatively mecent. The humber guests at least struggled with each other for food and aad to bring their own table cutlery if they wished to eat decently and in comfort. For instance, Samuel Pepys tells us how, at the banquet served up awo years after the restoration, there were many tables, "but none in the &au but the mayors and the lords of 8he privy council that had napkins or Knives, which was very strange" Etin more strange to such a lover of female beauty as Pepys was the plain ness of feature of the city danes. or the ladies' room he says: q could mot discern one handsome face. Being wearied with looking upon a company of ugly women, I went away and took coach and through Cheapside and there saw the pageants, which were very silly"

Sacrificed Their Hats.

Many years ago the master butchers of Washington market, in New York city, used to kick their hats about the market at the close of business on Sat urday night. Under the custom in the market it was considered a sighting of the profession for any butcher not to appear behind his counter with high hat, and it was thought bad taste If the meat seller at the end of & prosperous week failed to destroy the hat. The apprentice butchers couldn't afford silk headgear and so used to gather up the broken hats and repair them for their own use.

Horse breeding is an occupation which requires much learning, and a certain English farmer has a great rep utation for his skill.
 A neighbor of his who sought some advice on the cheap, asked the horse breeders son one day:

 Do you mean just slightly i'll or real bad?" was the lads cautious counter question.
