The Burritt brothers, Timothy and Peter, have received their death sentence for murdering and robbing street cur driver iu Minneapolis lust winter. Rev. Mr. Mrooks, an English mis sionary, and sixteen of his assistants and followers have been massacred near Saadoni by some of the coast tribes and natives of Zanzibar. The iniissncre is said to have been caused by the intense hatred the Germans have aroused toward the whites. Jamestown Daily Alert: Judge J. It. Buxton and Editor Ellis of THB OAKES REPUBLICAN were visitors in Jamestown yesterday. Both gentlemen are taking a great interest in seeing the 6th judicial district divided and the work more equally apportioned among Uiv three presiding judges. It is a bill that will be' the greatest benefit to James town. Judge Rose's presence here in chambers, in this central locality, will attract attorneys, clients and witnesses who will prove a consider able source of revenue. James town people should help along the passage of the bill. Supt. of Schools, C, A. Kent, pro nounces the Oakes High School building and its equipments the finest in Central Dakota. The school board have now completed their work of furnishing the build ing with new automatic seats pur chased of Mr. E. C. Allen, of La Moure. The rooms are supplied with Webster's alphabetical una bridged dictionaries, theremometers, eight-day clock's, tellurion, ana tomical charts and every needed help and convenience. With Miss Anna Cochrane as principal and Miss Hattie Green as assistant, who liave no superiors as teachers in the Territory, the success of the school is "Assured. Boulanger, the Frsnch agitator, has been elected to the chamber of deputies by a large majority. This may mean either a change in the constitution or it may mean revolu tion. It is about time for a periodi cal change for poor France, with her weak and yascillating populace and her ever-sliifting political scenes The future of the pagan nation, which in rejecting the guidance of a Supreme Ruler is evidence of its frailty, is indeed trembling in the balance. A republic cannot long survive with such a composition of -loyalists, anarchists and socialits in the ascendancy, with a Boulanger wielding the dictatorship and thirst ing for military glory. The work ingmen, poorly paid and easily in fluenced the auarchista who want no government, and the socialists, those robbers who prey upon honest toil, are all anxious for a revolution, as they have nothing to lose and ex pectin the chaos that follows to reap their reward in plunder, vague ly hoping for something better in the new regime. ABBRDEEN, Dak.. Jan. 28.—News •reached here today that two school children perished in the storm Fri day night, and that a third was not expected to survive the exposure. Their names were French, and the party consisted of two little buys and an older sister, aged IS. The French family live about 12 miles east of Hitchcock. When taken to school by an older brother in the morning, the children promis ed to wait until he came for them at niglit. Children belonging to other families were takeu home, but tliese refused proffered assistance, saying they would stay in the schoolhouse all night if their brother did not come. It appears he did start, but could not make his -team face the storm and gave it up. After waiting till dusk they started home, bat lost the road and wandered in the deep snow until exhausted. When found in the morning the tw6 little boys were dead. The girl was oeverely froien and is uncon demns. If she survives she will lose the lower portion of her finite, and jsosaiblj^oiie or both ar ins. B«tF? $#lttran, Edited by Ibu Burcstf of Information CHICAGO, III.

Information «poa all mattdrt relating to vi irt&ktfMvaro of butter and ch«M» and baadllng of milk will be arivon In answer to QU««UO&*mailedW ohn Uareaa at obore address. Hints for the Winter. At this season of the year, the average farmer's wife lias more trouble in raising cream and in churning than at any other. Two things combine to make difficult these tasks. One is tho condition of the milk itself, owing to want of proper food and an advanced stage of gestation in many cows in the herd, and the other arising from the temperature of the air, and conse quently of the milk, unless set at once. Milk at this season of the year often parts very slowly with its cream, and consequently there is a great loss, as the full quantity is not recovered from the milk. This is owing to what scientists term the viscosity of the milk serum. In plainer words, i, is a sticky condi tion of the milk which prevents the free motion of the cream globules hence all but the larger globules re main in the milk without rising to the surface. With this kind of milk, less trouble is experienced where shallow setting is used than where the milk is set in deep cans. One remedy consists of a change of food for the cow, more succulent food should be given. Roots and ensilage answer the purpose, but are not always to be had. The alter native is to add to the milk a quan tity of warm water, at about 100 degrees Far. from one-fourth to one- half the bulk of the milk may be added. This decreases the viscos ity, and allows a freer passage of the cream globules. Some people make a practice of scalding milk at this season, raising the temperature to 120 degrees or 130 degrees. When set in deep cans there is a positive loss of from 4 10 per cent, of the butter. Perhaps when set in shallow cans there may be—no doubt there is—a gain in quantity, but there is a loss in qual ity. At least I no not think milk for the best butter should be heated above the normal temperature ef 160 degrees. Where there is a proportion of fresh milch cows in the herd this difficulty is very much lessened, the better condition of their milk over balancing the yiscous condition of the strippers' milk. Again, a large loss arises from milk getting too cold before setting. Too much emphasis cannot be plac ed upon the necessity of early set ting. But where from number of cows, distance, &c., the milk is con siderably cooled, it should be warm ed to its natural temperature before being set. Prof. Henry, of the Wis consin Station, made some interest ing experiments in this direction. Carefully mixed milk was divided into equal portions. One-half was set at once, temperature at different trials ranging from 91 degrees to 93 degrees. The other portijns were allowed to cool from 20 to 30 minutes, and set at temperatures ranging from 78 degrees to 86 de grees. The percentages of loss even on this comparatively short delay, ranged from 4.4 per cent, to 9.3, a loss of $4.40 to $9.30 on every $100 worth of butter made. This is more than our farmers can afford to lose by carelessness or ignorance on this subject. While the addition of water to the milk is an assistance in raising cream, it is often an advantage in churning. The viscous condi iion of the cr#am can be observed by its frothing in the churn. Froth ing also comes when cream is churn ed at too low a temperature. A con siderable quantity of warm water may be added to such cream to ad vantage—from 20 to 30 per cent, of the quantity of cream. Do not put water in a higher temperature than abont 60 degrees. Such cream may often be raised to a temperature of 70, degrees. As soon as the butter comes, reduce the temperature to 60 or 62 degrees and no evil effects wilt fnj nv the warm tejnperature.—E. G. 1'., Brillion, Wis. A widow lady in Maine, who owned six Connecticut-bred Jerseys, produced from tliem in the vear 1887, 2,000 pounds of butter, wliich she sold for $600. WASHINGTON LETTER. Prom Our Regular Correspondent. WASHINGTON, Jan. 25th. 18S9. The Republican tariff bill passed the Senate by a strict party vote. Though many of its provisions had been changed in the last two days before its passage, no Democratic suggestions were adopted, and the bill is entirely the child of the majority. It is believed that the Ways and Means Committee of the House, to which the bill will next in order be referred, will send it back to the House with an exhaustive ad verse report, upon which Mr. Mills is now busily engaged. In such an event the most likely course would be to leave the matter to a confer ence committee which would deliver the bill into the hands of three Senators and three Representatives to manipulate until the close of the session shut off legislation. A sec ond plan is possible. The Republi cans with the aid of fourteen Dem ocrats, could pass the bill. The dif ficulty lies in the fact that the House Republicans will not push the mat ter as vigorously as did their Senate brethren. The Senate bill is by no means satisfactory to all Republicans and the desire for an extra session of the next Congress is so strong that tariff legislation will not be apt to be passed by the present body, although it is known that the Pres ident would sign the bill. The bill passed the Senate at 8 o'clock on Tuesday night. A great many rumors of party desertions had occurred and it was with relief that the Republicans saw Senators Stanford and Plumb fall i.:to line. The Pennsylvania iron men had brought their Senators into line two days before. Senator Riddleberger, as in duty bound to preserve his erratic record, stated to the Senate after the vote that if he had not been paired with Mr. Blodget he would have voted against the bill, as he objected to the Plumb amend ment creating a customs commis sion tot prepare tariff statistics, as being another official junketing party. If Senator Riddleberger had voted the vote would have been a tie and the Republicans would have been defeated. Senator Riddleber ger is a very important mau—on a vote. By four o'clock in the afternoon the galleries of the Senate Chamber were filled to a great extent with that immense minority of Washing ton people who patronize every free show no matter of what character. The people who go to public recep tions, Marine Band concerts, big funerals and fires with equal gusto, were on hand promptly, filled with a hearty tariff ignorance and a thirst for a sight of a fight that did not materialize. Before 7 o'clock the Senate floor was crowded with mem bers from the House wing of the Capitol, with whom the Senators were chatting, The long and dreary roll calls had commenced and no Senator dared leave his place. Still the scene was very tame com pared with that in the House last June when the Mills bill was passed. Apart from Mr. Plun b's blind ef forts to reduce the duty on cotton ties one-half, there was even har mony. When the Mills bill gassed a surging heated mass of humanity struggled for every available inch of room from which a view of the House could be obtained, and every desertion of party met with min gled cheers and derision. This ex citement, however, was due to no interest in the tariff itself. It was regarded merely as an element of the campaign, for political purposes only, and no one was foolish enough to expect that the bill would ever become a law. Now that Mr. Bayard has washed liis hands of the Samoan difficulty, Congress appears equally slow'in taking action. The Republican members of tho Senate Foreign Af fairs Committee are indisposed to make rapid progress, aa they do not yet know wliat policy the uvxt ad ministration will follow. Probable it is that Mr. Harrison will receive tue question as a legacy from this administration. By that time it is to be supposed the affair may have been settled by the prompt action of .'England. Neither Germany nor the United States could afford to m- give battle. Germany has her hands full with her watchful European enemies, and this country has no Navy with which to make war. Whether or not. as Mr. Bayard's friends allege, Mr. Cleveland has treated him "merely as a clerk," he is held respocsible for his own polit ical death. From the Keiley im broglio to the Suckville folly Mr. Bayard administratian hiis been singularly unfortunate. From the fisheries treaty to the Morroco trouble the State Department has exhibited very little but its weak ness. In avoiding vital issues it has become the rival of Dickens' cunilocution office."' cir- Thc Remington Standard Type Writer.
