We are not sure Just which class John does claim as his, but, however, that matters not as to his age. He Is a rood 1! around fellow at any rate and always looks well Into the future before fully mak ing up his mind as to any proposition he may be considering, so he has now one of the largest and nicest two-story houses on his place one would desire to live In. This Is not built after the plan of a bachelor's hall, but more to the taste of a refined and cultured young woman, and yet we would not even Insinuate that Mr. Harerty was even thlnklnr of taking a "partner for life" to help him manare his well stocked ranch: and yet inasmuch as actions speak , louder than words. It looks very much that way. Bridgeport Blade.

Be-at-rlce Who said Beatrice should be pronounced Be-lt-rlceT Possibly the original Beatrice was a girl who was too tired to fly around and help her ma with the dishes and sweeping, and with clenched teeth and mingled solicitude and anger was goaded to duty as Be-lt-rlce. Perhaps, though, the original was a Uthe, active, bewitching maiden, who displayed .the rare trait of Issuing voluntarily in the morning and leading in dlsh-washlnr and fortifying her tired mother before the waahtub. She may have been an Improved edition of Little Eva, being supplemented by a tendency to help her maternal parent. (There Is no record that Little Era Injured her health by excessive work.) The first Beatrice may have been such a fascinating creature that her enraptured parents, with half-suppressed tenderness and affection, would, In alluding to her. Hep, Be-lt-rlce. There is doubtless some fundamental ground for those 1 who-pronounoe It Be-it-rlce. and they are supported by accepted authority, yet the rule Is not altogether reasonable In view of the spelling, and If many conven iently say Be-at-rlce, such largely sup ported preference makes It eminently proper. So long as It is popularly called both Be-at-rlce and Be-lt-rlce, either should be tolerated as correct. The easier style the one less likely to tax the speaking ma chineryshould be acceptable without arousing the pendant to point, amidst frowns, an imperial finger at a dlstlonary of proper names.

At that time the out standing warrant Indebtedness amounted to 21,690,000, but of this all was owned by the permanent school fund except about t per cent, which Is hold by private individuals.
