The World The Humphrey Democrat of Friday, in speaking of the death of Ferdinand Bering at his home there March 26th and which was mentioned in last week's Jouksax, says that he was born in Ger many July 4, 1853; came to America and located in Coming county in October, 1882, and six years later to Humphrey where he had since lived. He leaves a widow and, five children, two boys and three girls, the youngest, "a boy, born the Sunday after his death, to mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father. Owing to his provident care they are left in comfortable dr cumstancee. The funeral was in charge of the Forresters, of which he was a member. The fanrral was one of the largest ever aeid 1 tie, and wnile it was in progress nearly every business place in town was closed. By the death of Mr. Bering the town loses one of its best dtizens, and all sympathize most sincerely with the bereaved family in their affietion.

Among the first things learned in geometry is that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points, and if this thought could be injected into business matters and acted upon more than it- is. the world would be all the better by it. The following paragraph from the Leigh World is an illustration. The ad vertising spoken of was done in The JotnrxAL, and if the straight course had been followed, there would have been less trouble and expense all around: "A drcumstance which may develop into a case of horse stealing occurred this week, and thereby hangs a little tale. About a month ago twelve head of horses strayed away from the Wisherd ranch in Stanton county and were taken up by Henry Wurdeman in Platte county. Mr. Wurdeman gave notice by advertising that the horses were at his place. Not long ago one of Wishards men was traveling through the country south of Leigh looking for the horses and ran across them at Wurdeman's. The horses were not taken away at the time, but the man, Anderson by name, said he would return again after seeing Mr. Wishard and arranged to pay for tneir Keeping wnue in the care of Mr. Wurdeman. Later, he came back pre pared to take them, but Wurdeman would not let the horses go without some evidence that the proper man was getting them. So Mr. Anderson sug gested going to Columbas and rnaVing affidavit before a notary that he was the proper man to take them. Accordingly he went and was to return the same evening and stop over night with Mr. Wurdeman. Night and next morning came, but Anderson did not show up, at least was not seen. The horses, bow ever, were gone in the morning and the wire fence where they were yarded had been cut, showing how they were taken out. Yesterday Mr. Wurdeman went up to the ranch and fonnd the twdve horses, and the supposition is that An derson took them from Wardeman's yard and drove them to the ranch dur ing the night, Mr. Wurdeman asks for KtoU in settlement of the matter, which he was refused. It is learned that he will give them a few days to settle be fore commencing aay proceedings at law." Weather Keaert. Review of the weather near Genoa for the month of March, 1897.

We learn from the Humphrey Dem ocrat that Attorney Duffy of this dty was there Thursday defending Godfred Samuelson; that the bondsmen have ap pointed Con Hoessacker as acting post master. Louis Lachnit remaining as dep uty; that L. E. Mover was re-elected principal of the Lindsay schools; that Wm.

His hearing was had Wednesday evening and yester day morning before Justice Walker.

He could not giro bond and was taken to Colambus Thursday night. Detroit, Michigan, has developed'an other individual who may possibly be come as famous as Mayor Pingree. This time it is a woman, Eliza Bent Gamble, president of the Detroit Education Un ion, which proposes to organize leagues in each school district of the city, of which every woman within the ttstrict, regardless of creed, color, nationality or environment, should be asked to become a member. Meetings are to be held once a month after regular school hours in the various schools, and such subjects discussed as would tend to better the conditions that surround the child. There is no doabt but such meetings, rightly conducted, woald do an immense . amount of good all over the country. The good of the child is or should be the guiding prindple with parents, teachers and school officers, and it goes without saying that more frequent con ferences between parents and teachers in regard to peculiarities of children woald be coadadve to the rimniw of the children at school, and likewise their welfare at homo. The teacher and ths pareat are not enemies, as some 1 to assume. Our public, free-school system presupposes that the work of the teacher is sspplemental to that of the parent, in the line of natural progress for the child, in the development and uafoldment of abilities. It occurs to Tare Jotrxsax. to say. Let all get togeth er for the good of the child (in school and oat of school), not as a series of "bosses," oae after another, but with the anderatandiag that that governmeat, t, control is best which orig- from within, and aniats sad raise, controls and sways the child whsa tke teacher or parent is not prsaaat ths rale of right.
