School Land Lease Contracts,
At tho recent session of the legisla
ture, an act was passed which does
away with the sale of educational, or
school, land on and after July 9, the
date it becomes a law.
In an interview with the county
treasurer upon this subject, we learn
that he has been instructed by Hon
J. V. Wolfe, commissioner of public
lands and buildings, that, if holders
of lease contracts desire to purchase
such lands or any part of it, com
plete application to purchase must be
tiled with the county treasurer not
iater than the clo6e of the eighth day
of July.
By "complete application to pur
chase," it is understood, in the first
place, that only holders of lease con
tracts are entitled to purchase such
lands. Party desiring to purchase
must file his lease contract with the
county treasurer and sign application
for appraisement and sale of lands.
and as soon as county commissioners
or supervisers (the appraisers) make
their return, there should be paid
Lease rental to date of application to
purchase. At least one-tenth of the
principal. Interest on the remainder
to the end of tho year. Give six per
cent (6 per ct.) notes for unpaid prin
cipal.
All must be doce within the time
ahove mentioned, in order to consti
tute a legal filing for purchase.
Has Cnrlons Views.
Mr. Judge EaKer seems to have
curious, or more properly speaking,
unusual views about embezzlers. Now
our teaching has all along been that a
man who stole two dollars and a half
always was railroaded to the pen for
five or six years, while the financier
who gets away with a few hundred
thousand was treated to much consid
eration, was given all the opportun
ity possible to escape the law, and if
it so happened that a jury mistakenly
convicted him he was never permitted
to become contaminated by being im
mured in a jail. Judge Baker, how
ever, says that the reason why a man
is admitted to bail before trial is that
he is presumed to he innocent, but that
after conviction that presumption is
no longer possible or plausible, and
therefore to jail a man must go. And
therefore Bartley went. This is so
unusual that we think it is likely to be
reversed. Lincoln News.

Numerous ladies agreed to this price, j

they were informed that a certain

timing big projectiles.
Bow Their Initial Velocity Is Calculated
In Tests mt fcandy llook.
To the iayman one of the interesting
features in a big gnn test is the method
by which the initial velocity of the
projectiles is calculated. When he hears
that the modern high power guns often
expel a shot at an initial velocity of
2,000 feet a second, a rate that if sus
tained would mean a mile in three sec
onds, he realizes the difficulty of calcu
lating the speed. An ordnance officer
must have accurate knowledge of the
velocity of a projectile, that he may pre
dict its range and penetration and de
termine the accuracy of the gun. It is
a comparatively easy matter, however,
with the new instruments to calculate
accurately the initial velocity of a pro
jectile, and any one who is fortunate
enough to visit Sandy Hook wheu big
guns are being tested may bco how it is
done.
Two open frames are set np 150 feet
apart in front of the gnu. Wires arc
stretched back and forth across thest
frames, making a screen through which
the shot must pass. The wires in each
screen form a complete electric circuit,
which includes also an electric battery
and an electro magnet. The projectile,
after leaving the gun, flies through the
wire in the first screen, interrupting tho
circuit and releasing the armature of
the magnet. In a space of time so small
as to be hardly conceivable tho projec
tile has covered the distance between
the two frames and pierced the wire in
the second, interrupting its electric enr
rent and releasing tho armature of its
magnet, as in the first case. Hie inter
val between the drop of these two ar
matures represents the time ppent by
the projectile in traveling 150 feet.
This time is indicated by the chrono
graph in the laboratory near by. Wires
fun from each screen to tho laboratory,
which is fitted np with batteries and
switchboards.
The armature of the first electro mag
net is an iron rod about 8 feet long,
which is suspended vertically. This rod
falls when the second electro magnet in
placed a little below the first, and when
it is released it acts as a knife, and,
striking tho side of the falling rod,
makes a slight mark. The distance of
this cuter mark from the end of the rod
indicates the distance through which
the rod has dropped while the projectile
is passing from one screen to another.
This forms the unit for tho calculation
of the projectile's velocity in feet per
second. New explosives and high power
guns have increased the initial velocity
of projectiles wonderfully in the last
few years. Projectiles may be expelled
now with a force that will make them
effective at- a range far beyond ordinary
eyesight New York Sun.

If
an ideal of useful living, we commend
to him the address delivered by Carl
Schurz at the funeral of William Stein
way, the head of the great house of
piano manufacturers. After referring
to the fact that the dead man began his
active life as a simple workman and in
his success remained the ideal knight of
labor Air. Schurz said:
"Ho was a pattern as a rich man. I
wish I could call the millionaires of
the land to this bier and say to them,
'Those among you who lament that at
times poverty looks with mutterings on
riches learn from this dead mau. '

The following conversation, which
occurred in one of the city ticket offices
a few days ago, is a sample, of the
pleasant occurrences which a ticket
seller experiences in the course of his
career:
- "Give me a time table," said a short
man with a straight, hanging beard to
the clerk.
"Where do you wish to go?"
"None of your business," was tho
curt reply. A copy of the time table was
passed to the man, and he took his leave.
"That's one of those fellows who
would complain of a conductor if he
failed to say 'Please' when asking for a
ticket," remarked the clerk. True
Flag.
Rotten Assessments.
A lot of peculiar things are shown
by the assessment abstract as made up
from the reports sent to the state
auditor from the various counties of
the state, says the Bee's Lincoln cor
respondent. The abstract would in
dicate that not a single bicycle was
assessed while the money invested
in bicycles in this 6tate is becoming
something immense. It is said that
last year in some parts of the state
bicycles were assessed, but that they
were not listed under a separate head
ing because the blanks did not in
clude bicycles in the titles. . In Lan
caster county, however, an attempt to
assess bicycles was made last year, the
schedules being remodeled for that
purpose. The result was that from
the country precints sixty-six bicycles,
at $G05, were reported for taxation,
while in the city of Lincoln 238 were
found, valued at $3,144. In the fifth
ward seventy-one bicycles were found,
while this year the assessor failed to
find a single wheel in that ward. The
wheelmen of Lincoln boast that there
are 5,000 bicycles in the city and
none of them would be willing to esti
mate the average value at less
than $50.
Another curious thing shown by the
abstract is that last year there were
but $19,515 worth of diamonds and
jewelry in the entire state, and of
this $8,041 was from Kearney county
alone, indicating that that county
owned almost one-half of the total
amount of diamonds and jewelry in
the state. The value on the same
items in Douglass county was only
$4,824, and in Lancaster county $645.
Dakota county had no watches or
clocks, no diamonds and only seven
teen sewing machines, valued at $09.
In Keith county there were forty-one
watches and clocks, valued at eighty
one cents oach, while Colfax county
contained forty-ono timepieces valued
at $294. Richardson county, one of
wealthiest in the state, shows only
about $15,000 deposited in b inns, while
in some other counties not a dollar is
6hown, and apparently no bnnk stock
is shown by citizens of tne county as
sessed. A Close Call.
