O. K., IHS Maxima. It la truth the poet sings that be who essays to handle the unruly In a coun: try school has educational work cut out for blin not laid down In any reu- table text book. No person on earth la subjected to aa niauy petty persecutions born of sheer deviltry, as the country school teacher. For a week, may be, after be "takes In" the school be has a fairly easy road to travel; the boys have not liuished sluing uiin np. But woe to blm if be becomes unduly contldent, for things will happen not set forth In the simple rules he has pasted -up above the blackboard. . , The second Monday Is generally the time set for the opening of hostilities. The big leader, likely as not bigger than the teacher, has used Saturday and Sun day mapping out his program. Subdued sulckers. Inattention to the business Ui baud, poorly prepared Ica sohs or lessons absolutely unlearned mark the day's proceedings. The teach er reprimands and orders the school to stick to those tasks until ' they arc learned. Nobody Is kept In nt recess or noon rest, for as yet no open detiance has marked the demeanor of the pu pils. They go slowly, for the temper of the master Is not a revealed thing yet. Just before school "lets out" the teacher rises, taps bis bell and, bavin secured attention, delivers a curt lec ture concerning What has been doue ' or, rather,' not been done and bis anx ious desire to see Immediate Improve ment. Then the bell taps In dismissal and the boys rush tnmultuously out, firing back bucolic shoots of scorn and defiance as they scuttle away. Then the teacher. If he Is wary, knows be Is in the position of the man who has bet his sole remaining dollar on a losing horse he Is up against It good and plenty. ' He arrives at the scene of bis labors on Tuesday with. "Reckon yon better UcK mr-lf ye J kin," says Jack as he defiantly faces the pedagogue. This places the school and teacher on a war footing. The ultimatum having been delivered the teacher either goes In and fights a winning fight or lose all control of the school. It admits of no alternative. For the honor of "the profession, be It known. In mos! eases war medicine of a fierce and eager va riety Is speedily mixed. In the. early clash bone anJ sinew on the side of the big boy tells and the scholar dance about hoping for victory. In the end In most cases skill, endurance and high er nervous energy turn the scales and In almost record time Simpson is a licked commodity. He may not actual ly ascend to the roof to correct his er ror of Judgment, but the thing Is done and the "smoke out" Is a dismal fall- fa tier moved to Kansas with his fam ily. The friend of the black man made several visits to bis birthplace and was pleased to find a growing anti-slavery movement In 1S37 the lines between the opposing parties were closely drawn, and several fights occurred at Wolcottvllle when the anti-slavery ad herents tried to" bold meetings there. Brown paid Torrlngton an extended visit about this time, and was so out spoken against slavery that an old friend of the family undertook to warn blm. "If you keep up this fight against slavery you'll be hanged some day," said the friend. Brown Is said to hav replied taat be did not fear anything of that sort, and went on ngniing slavery Until be was hanged at Charleston, Va,, in 1859. ' THROUGH THE TELESCOPE. . In Kansas after the clos of the war a set of boys from New York arrived In a little village to find homes, ine village school was taught by a former trooper who still wore his blue uniform vest. One of the New Yorkers was the soul of mischief. He siguallssd the coming of winter when Ice was good and skating tine by putting some aw ful things on the big cannon stove. The smell sent the school to the tall grass outside. , Wilson was charged with the trick, but denied It stoutly. Then tho school reassembled and the usually mild eyes of that teacher max ed. Wilson was as big as be and fan was sure to come. The boys commenced to whistle In concert with the shrill piping of the wind. Qne small boy was detected In the act and received a hot ruler on bis crupper when Wilson Interposed and said he alone was to blame. The pedagogue then allowed be would have to whip Wilson, so the action commenc ed without time wasted In prelimina ries. Wilson sent the teacher in under a form In the first clash, The teacher rose and staggered to a clinch. Then he got busy over Wilson and pounded that young fellow right merrily. Half a dozen of the bigger boys yelled foul and went to the rescue. As lovely a bicker as ever came off in a school house followed. The boys had the teacher In under the desk, which was upset, the forms were marked by bunches of hair as some head went against an iron standard, the dust of battle covered the strug gling heroes, but the teacher would not yield. The small boys and all the girls were howling In concert scared Into fits, for all thought murder would be done. But this kind of thing must end and It did very suddenly. Humble Tragedy of the Siege of Lady am 1th. When the Boers besieged LadysmUh they permitted a "camp of refuge" and a field hospital to be established at ln tombl, a few miles tUstaut. Here the uou-com bat ants were gathered. And U the hospital, writes George Lynch in the London Daily Express, came every morning the train from Ladysmith, bearing Its burden of sick and wound ed. To the dwellers at Intombl that train brought the history of the siege, the dally bullethi written In blood and dls ease. Women who bad husbands and brothers and sons In Ladysmith crowd ed around always to see bat news it brought, and went away with a sigh of respite and relief when It carried noth ing for them. And yet, after a fashion, these wom en at Intombl were more fortunate than the men in Ladysmith, since they could learn from the new arrivals bow their loved ones fared. But men were not allowed to go backward and forward to Intombl; those who went had to re main, and somehow or other little or no news seemed to reach the garrison, In the dearth of news one man In Ladysmith bad arranged that twice a week, when be could get off duty, bis wife at Intombl should go at 12 o'clock and stan4 In front of a big marquee where he could see ber through the ship's telescope at the 4.7 battery. She went there regularly with her child,' and straining her eyes toward that sandbagged point above Convent's Hill, sometimes fondly Imagined that she could see him. And as the months parsed her child, like the others in the camp, grew more sickly, thin ana pale, till it seemed as If the Erl King spirit of the miasmlc fog had wrapped it Timber Land Act June J, 187s.

It Is very seldom that a coward can be Induced to take a country school, for his dominion will uot last five days. The boys cau tell a shirker at a glance and they lose no time with such, but get busy at ouce. The little boys begin the racket, for they have been Incited thereto by their elders, who wish tQ take a few notes. The big boys have said they are behind the little ones and they are, so far be hind that no help comes In the long aching day. Some siuall boy fails to learn his lesson. When asked why, be says with a wildly beating heart, but bold front. "I don't have to." This - l .1. - . ...... 11 .... tho' causes a auicaci io "u " ...v room, wherein the bold youth joins, closing with a gasp aa the ruler drops on some soft spot In his anatomy, lie knows he cannot whip the teacher and looks In vain for the promised help. So he takes his ticking and snutlllngly promises to be good. Uage is In his heart against the teacher and the big boys both. Possibly three or four such happen ings reduces that school to a condition of somber thought; the teacher is not so easy after all. Morning recess calls for a conference. Usually the teacuer ttays Inside the school house In deep thought. He sees bis work and plaus to have It out as soon as possible, for delays are dangerous. He sits at his desk, fingers his ruler and. once In a while glances out of the window. He marvels that the children do not seem to be playing, but he has things to chain his thoughts and falls to hear the stealthy footfall on the roof. Then Us the children file In, bobbing In awk ward courtesy' as they enter, he be comes aware of a large amount of smoke In the room. He is being "smoked out." "Jack Simpson." be says to the big fellow he has picked out aa the ring leader; "see what la the matter with that stove." Jack obeys-lt Is part of the play tnd a huge volume of white smoke rushes out Into the room. He closes the door, coughs exploslvely-rlt Is all pnt on and backs away. "She's full o1 imupinV he gasps. "Why Is the pipe choked?" ' "Swaller must V built rhelr nests In the chiuiley." This sally Is greeted with a roar. "Silence:" cries the ' teacher, bis words cutting like knives. "1 will do the laughing for this school That chim ney was not choked when school as sembled this morning; whi 1 It In this condition now?" "Reckon they built them nests w'ile we wtis at rooess." "What were you doing on the roof a while ago?" "Wmn't up on no roof talL" Open those windows. Nobody Is to leave the room until bid." says the an gry teacher, seising the ruler la a Arm grasp. "You stuffed something In that chimney. Simpson, and you're going up there and take It oat risht now." "Think so?" Is the impudent retqtt "You will either do It or I will have to punish you severel." The non-combatants were gazing eag erly at the place where the row went in behind the dust clouds. Shouts, blows and howls broke the veil, but nothing could be seen but an occasion al protruding head, arm or log which was promptly smitten. The assailants being over eager and lacking the cool skill of four years' battle with the "Johunles," were buffeting each other In high vigor while the teacher dodged In and out, missing a punch here and glvlug one there. At last Wilson sud denly shot out of the cloud and strik ing his shock heal against a foot of the stove upset that and lay out. In time too short for record tho big boys were fleeing while the teacher camped on their trail, laying about with a thick cane. He was somctliiug careless concerning the part of the anatomy, but be lauded. He drove the mob to a corner of the room and con tinued to baste those boys even after they had all made submission. Iht in tended to settle the bossism of that school right there, and he did. Thou as the smoke from the stove tilled the room he marshaled his enemies ana standing over them forced them to right the stove and pour cold water on Wilson. The teacher's head had a series of bumps much resembling a map of the Big Horns. But others also displayed mountainous regions where naught but balr had previously existed. - Black eyes once blue were frequent In fact, the teacher waa the only one In the bicker to Ignore his bruises. The oth ers lay on bands and emitted short. poorly suppressed groans at Intervals. Wilson craved and obtained permission to speak and made a manly apology be fore the whole school. This ended the war and It was never resumed. round mid entered It, and made It changeling of his own. But delicate as the child was, the mother was the first to fall sick, and the news of her Illness reached her bus baud by his seeing one tiny figure standing alone at the appointed place, waving a handkerchief. And there came a day when It, too, was no longer-to be seen. He could not go to them, lint had to stay and fight on wltb bitterness In bis heart. Dumdl. Edward C. Moys, James A. Car ey.

If the north German farmer looks with equanimity upon the gradual dis appearance of the stork, the Northern tourist in quest of the quaint and pic turesque will bear of the vanishing of the long-legged, red-beaked bird with unmixed regret. And what will the. children say, whom Hans Andersen has told stories of the stork so wonderful that the bird seems part and parcel of Fairyland? But the facts are that with in, the last half century the number of storks In Schleswig-Holsteln has stead lly decreased. Villages which used to be the home of over sixty families of storks, and where sometimes six stork nests could be counted on the roofs of one farmer's buildings, hardly show a single nest now. Yet the arrival of the stork was always hailed with dellgnt by the natives, and it was counted as much a sign of good luck If a stork built on a roof as In other parts of Ger many It Is to have a swallow build un der tho eaves.
