The death of Queon Victoria and

patches is responsible for a more or lesn
Interesting dismission regarding the dif
ference ol tlmo between England and
Nebraska and thero has been a wido
diversity of opinion as to tho exact dif
ference
It Is puzzling to a good many to
roalle that tho queen should pass away
ut lIO in the ovening and Tun Nrwsbo
able to get it before its readers long be
fore that hour had arrived It only
shows how inuoh more rapidly electric
ity can travel than tho sun or more
properly speaking than tho earth
volvo on its axis Tlio hour given in the
dispath to Tin Nrws was I but tho
dispatches today announce It nt U I10
which is probably cm root
Tun Nkws dispatch was received hero
at 1 0 yostorduy aftoruoon and tho
queens death had occurred at 40 min
utes and to Booonds after 12 oclock
Chicago tlmo therefore it wns known
hero that tho queen was dead 10 minutes
afterward
Hut as Norfolk is west of Chicago and
very near the division whore mountain
tlmo begins tho actual time of her
death hero waB It seconds after 12 bun
time
Tho dilVeronoo of timo between Green
wich and Chicago which is 87 degrees
and G minutes west is 5 hours 50 min
utes and 20 socouds
Tho difference between Greenwich
and Norfolk 17 degrees and 24 minutes
west is ft hours 2 minutes and 21 sec

The queen breathed her last after tho
buu had gone down and the uowb
reached here shortly after noon
