The Immigration Commission.
A commission which recently sailed
for Europe is now, and for a consider
able part of the summer will be, en
gaged in making the most exhaustive
study of the whole matter of immigra
tion that the United States has ever
undertaken. The commission, author
ized by the Immigration bill passed by
the last congress, consists of three
senators, three members-of the house
of representatives, and three citizens
appointed by the president. Begin
ning with Italy, they will visit all the
principal points of departure in Eu
rope. Special study will be given to
the emigration laws of all the Euro
pean' countries, the methods of exam
ining emigrants before embarkation,
the character and occupations of the
regions from which the larger num
ber of people come to America, and
all the other matters which may serve
to improve the handling of the immi
gration problem at the present time,
and to furnish a basis for intelligent
legislation in the future. In the mat
ter of the admission of diseased or in
digent aliens, there is even now little
ground for complaint, says Youth's
Companion. The present laws are
efficient, and on the whole well en
forced. The great need is the devel
opment of a system by which the
steady and never-lessening stream
may be directed, not to the crowded
centers which it naturally seeks, but
to those arid fields which it will .fer
tilize and fructify. For this, accurate
first-hand knowledge, suchfas the com
mission will attempt to gather, is in
dispensable. What Japan May Teach.
Japan, alone among nations, has
given the world an example of how a
people can throw off the shackles of
an oppressive autocracy and endow
itself with all the safeguards of liberty
and justice under a constitutional form
of government, without going through
the terrible struggles and devastation
of bloody revolutions, by following
along the paths of peaceful evolution.
Japan is the land of liberty, civil and
religious. Her religious liberty is
even far in advance of nations who
pride themselves upon this most pre
cious of national virtues. Her people
have no prejudices based upon reli
gious' or ecclesiastical grounds, and all
men of every church and creed are
free and equal to worship their God
in accordance with the dictates of
their own conscience in the fullest and
widest acceptation of the meaning
of religious liberty. Japan, which has
learned much from the west, has even
more to teach the west, declares Os
car Straus, secretary of commerce and
labor, in Leslie's. Persistency, self
control and preparedness are among
her national qualities; her 'officers ex
emplify the highest skill united with
the utmost patriotism; her soldiers,
while reckless in their bravery in sac
rificing their own Jives, are uniformly
humane even to their enemies, and no
nation is served by a more competent
diplomatic body men of reliability,
judgment and moderation.
A tramp has beaten all known rec
ordsby swimming 27 miles in 30 min
utes. He did not mean to do it He
merely tried to steal a ride from St.
Louis to Chicago on the rear of a loco
motive tender. When the train start
ed he fell over backward, through the
open manhole, into the water tank.
The noise of the train drowned his
cries for help, and he was obliged to
swim until the first stop was reached,
at Alton. When taken out he was
nearly dead, but the engineer was so
unfeeling as to call his attention to the
fact that the water was only four feet
deep, and he might have stood up. The
conductor, also unfeeling, asked him
for his ticket, but the tramp said he
had not come by rail, 'but by water.
Visitors to Japan are usually im
pressed with the many curious uses
to which fans are put. The umpire at
wrestling and. fencing matches uses a
large fan, the various motions of
which constitute a language that the
combatants understand and promptly
heed. Men and children, as well as
women, use fans at all times. The
servant has a fiat fan, made of rough
paper, to blow the charcoal fires with,
or use as a dustpan. The farmer has
a stout fan to winnow his grain. Still
another variety is made of waterproof
paper, which, dipped in water, creates
a pleasant coolness by evaporation
without wetting the clothes.

WAY OUT OF DILEMMA.
Instructions to SofTool Superintendents
of Counties.
Superintendent McBrien has sent out
the following instructions regarding
the levy of a school tax, to the various
county superintendents in counties
where no annual meeting was held be
cause of the storm:
Owing to the severe storm that
swept over several counties of the
state many school districts were un
able to hold the annual school meet
ing. There is no provision under ex
isting school laws for special district
meetings to transact the' business of
the regular annual meeting. In fact,
the statue prohibits any special meet-
i ing voting a tax for maintaining
school. This is one of the things that
can be done only at the annual meet-,
inj: so far as the legal voters are con
cerned. However, the legislature wisely
provided for such emergencies as
caused by the recent storm. This law
is found in section 11a, subdivision 2,
school laws of Nebraska, as revised
and amended in 1907. Said section
reads: "When no levy is voted at the
annual school district meeting, or
where the district votes to have no
school, or where no action is taken by
the annual meeting to provide for
school, it shall be the duty of the
county superintendent of the proper
county to make and deliver to the
county clerk of such county in which
any part of the district is situated not
'atcr than the first Monday, in August
following the annual meeting an item
ized er-timate of the amounts neces
sary to be expended during the ensu
ing ; car for school purposes in such
distner. It shall be the duty of the
county cl3rks to levy such taxes on
the taxable property of the district, to
be collected by the county treasurer
at the same time, and in the same
manner as the state and county taxes
are collected, and when collected to be
paid to the treasurer of the proper
district on the order of the proper
district on the order of the director,"
countersigned by the moderator of said
district."
In determining the length of time
school shall be taught in districts that
failed to hold the annual school meet
ing, county sraerintendent should con
fer with the members of the school
district board, and also take into con
sideration the length of the .terms
voted in such districts at previous an
nual meetings, but in no case shall the
length of term be less than that re
quired by section 14, subdivision 2,
school laws, if such districts are to
share in the state apportionment of
public "school moneys.
ANSLEY MAN IS IN TROUBLE.
Same Bunch of Cattle is Assessed in
Logpm and Custer Counties.
Lincoln B. J. Tierney of Ansley,
Custer county, has appealed to the
State Board of Assesment to cancel
the assessment of a .bunch of cattle
either in Custer or Logan counties, in
both of which they were assessed, and
his appeal has raised a nice point for
the board to pass upon. Tierney owns
a ranch in Logan county and on this
ranch the cattle were kept until just
before' last April, when he moved them
to Custer county, intending after feed
ing them, a short time there to ship
them on to South Omaha. While being
fed in Custer county the assessor
placed them on the Custer assessment
roll and the Logan county assessor did
the same thing. He appealed to the
Custer county Board of Equalization to
have the item stricken from the assess
ment rolls, but tas turned down, con
sequently the 440 head of cattle were
assessed in two counties. 'Tierney
claims the cattle were in transit while
in Custer county and should not have
been assessed there, though he does
not care which county releases him.
He notified the board he would appear
in Lincoln when convenieat to the
board.

Railroad Land is Scares.
Reports from the land department of
the Union Pacific show that all the
railroad land in Nebraska and Colo
rado is sold and less than 10,000 acres
remains in Kansas and that is all sit

land in Colorado east of Denver is
sold and has changed hands several
tlmes-since being sold by the Union
Pacific. The demand for land in the
west continues unabated and the raise
of the last few years have nude all
the land which was once considered a
desert good fanning land.

j HERE'S ONE ON THE "ROOKEY."
Sets Sentry Call Twisted When Das
zied by Commander.
A drummer sometimes gets his or
ders twisted, but never quite so badly
as the "roekey" I saw down at Chick
amauga when the troops were being
mustered in for the Spanish-American
war, says a traveling man in the St
Louis .Pos-Dispatch. ,
This boy, fresh from St? Louis, was
on the way to the front and proud of
It He had his first assignment to
guard duty and he had been carefully
Instructed as- to calling "Who goes
there?" '
The officer in command of the dl
vision was a dignified martinet The
"rookey" had never seen him. About
midnight the general came home from
a reception in town. He was all fixed
up in his dress togs and he was the
swellest thing the new guard ever
saw. As the general passed his post
the boy gazed at him open-mouthed.
Jnst in time he remembered he was
expected to say something. So he
gasped:
"There goes who?"
INSURANCE INVESTMENTS.
How One Company's Assets Are Dis
tributed in the South and West '
pro
In connection with its withdrawal
from Texas, along with many other
companies, rather than to submit to
the new law which requires -that 75
of the reserves on Texas policies shall
be invested in securities of that state,
which securities shall 'be deposited in
the 'State and subjected to heavy taxa
tion, in addition' to the large tax now
imposed on life insurance premiums,
the Equitable Life Assurance Society
has made public the distribution of its
assets, at the end of the second year
of the new management The Equit
able now has $10,958,000 invested in
Texas, which is twice as much as the
new law requires, but the manage
ment decided that to submit 'to the
additional taxation would be. an injus
tice to its policyholders in other
states, which impose no such penalty
on the thrift of their citizens.
The Equltable's report shows that
more than 37 of its total reserves
are now invested in the southern and
western states, while only 35 of its
total insurance is carried in these
states. Its investments are distributed

BATHING IN THE DEAD SEA,
By No Means a Pleasure, According
to One Traveler.
"No sooner has one plunged into
the water than one is whipped off
one's feet and goes bobbing helplessly
about like a wretched cork," says Rev.
Haskett Smith of bathing in the Dead
sea. "In the' effort to regain one'i
footing and to get back to shore, one's
feet and shins are barked by the
jagged stones and pebbles, and when
at length one does emerge from its
treacherous bosom, with the lower
limbs bleeding and torn, one becomes
aware of a horrible tingling and burn
ing sensation in eyes, ears, nostrils,
mouth and almost every pore of the
skin, from the brine and bitumen
which have penetrated everywhere.
"Unless great care is taken the
bather in the Dead sea is liable to an
eruption, which breaks out all over
his body, and which is commonly
known as the 'Dead sea rash.' The
best antidote to this is to hurry across
as quickly as possible to the river Jor
dan and take a second plunge therein.
The soft and muddy waters of that
sacred but dirty stream will effectual
ly remove the salt that has incrusted
the body.'!

"What is the difference between a
chauffeur and a surgeon?" asked the

COFFEE COMPLEXION.

"When I became convinced that cof

drinking coffee, and my complexion is

Most bad complexions are caused
by some disturbance of the stomach
and coffee is the greatest disturber of
digestion known. Almost any woman
can have a fair complexion if she will
leave off coffee and use Postum Food

GOES TO
PRISON
AT 81 YEARS.
Dangerous Counterfeiter Is Sent to
t Penitentiary at Advanced Age.
Philadelphia. "Old Sam" Tate, said
to be the most dangerous counterfeiter
in the country, has been sent to the
eastern penitentiary by Judge Holland
for eight years.
Since 1872 Tate has spent more
than half of his time in jail, and it is
probable that his sentence will finish
him, for he told the court yesterday
that he was 81 years old. William
Ingher and Charles Busramonte, who
were tried with him, were sentenced
to 18 months and 'three years re
spectively. Only last March Tate was on trial
for counterfeiting, with George Ward.
Michael Joyce, James Gaughan and
Catherine O'Donnell, but by shrewd
coaching of the other defendants Tate
was acquitted. Ward. Joyce and
Gaughan were sent to prison, and the
O'Donnell woman, although convicted,
was released in her own recognizance.
Tate put up a hard fight His coun
sel declared that he was being "sys
tematically hounded" by the secret
service men; that he 'was a reputa
ble junk dealer and that in the course
of his business he had come into pos
session of the supposed counterfeiting
material found in his house by the
operatives.
Historic Cottage to Go.
New York. Summer residents at

to a Brooklyn man. He is expected to
so alter and remodel it as to 'destroy
its identity. When the wardens of St
Luke's Episcopal church bought the
Payne property last year, some of the
summer cottagers endeavored to raise
a fund with which to buy the cottage,
but without success. '

Holds Record
Great Distance Covered by President
ef lllineis Central.
Chicago. President J. T. Harahan,
ot the Illinois Central' railroad, enjoys
the distinction of having traveled over
more miles of railroad than any oth
er man in he United States, if not in
the world. In 35 years he has trav
eled 2,281,250 miles, and .during that
time has been in only one accident
a small collision in which he was
merely shaken and not Injured.
For 15 years he traveled an average
af 150 miles a day, and for 20 years
,?n average of 200 miles a day. Had
Mr. Harahan kept traveling in a
straight line around the world for the
past 40 years, covering the same dis
tance he has in flitting from place to
place In this country, he would have
circuited the globe 92 times.
President Harahan is known to rail

'extremely close to the rails" more

22 years the checks of the bank have
been cashed by a small white wom

tury is the period that a woman has
swayed the morals, opinions and poli

of her paper.
A director in the street railway and
the corporation that lights the village
is a woman, and she attends each
and every meeting of the directorate
and gets her pay for attendance with
the same regularity that old Uncle
Russell Sage did.
Yet it cannot be said that the fair
ones of Norway compete with the
men. The latter are too gallant to
permit of competition. They simply

Strange Bird Is Shot.
Knoxviile. Tcnn. Inhabitants in the
region of Zion's Mill. Lee county, Vir

covery of a strauge bird in the moun

great size, measuring nine feet from
tip to tip. The feathers are perfectly
white, except the tips of the wings,
which are black.
Its head and bill are 18 inches in
length, its webbed feet are seven
inches across. A great pouch under
its bill holds a gallon of water and this
gives the. idea that the bird must be

was behind the counter.
There are a couple of women
among the large group of money-makers
who attend simply to the growing
of their fortunes. Miss Elizabeth B.
Beal is a director in the Norway &
Paris Street Railway company, and
she is also a director in the corpora
tion that operates 'the electric lighting
and power for the village and ad
jacent land.
There is little or no crime in Nor

liquor is not even sold on the quiet.
The men do smoke, but the women
are hoping that the time will come,
and come socn. when this "vicious"
habit will not be 'indulseejin by the
voting population.

At Brandsviiie. in the eastern part
of Howell county, 100 Swiss, who have
come to the Ozark region within the
last year, are blazing the way in this
favored country toward a new Swit

toms seem so strange to the Ozark
natives, are principally farmers, who
have come to clear the forests, till the
soil, grow fruit -and engage in dairy-

SMOKE CAUSES SNUB NOSES.
A Remarkable Indictment Against
London Nuisance Drawn Up.
London. Sir William Richmond,
the well-known member of the Royal
academy, finds instances from unex
pected directions that drive home his
arguments in his hitherto unsuccess
ful campaign against the London
smoke nuisance.
He told his hearers that the late
springs and early falls here are caused
entirely by London smoke. The pallor
of Londoners is also due to the same
cause, for smoke excluded the sun
light and where there was no sunlight
there could be no color. He went so
far as to ascribe the physical defi
ciencies of the poor to his pet aver
sion. Premising that nothing could grow
without light, he declared that poor
girls often went toothless, while the
unsightly snub noses and retreating
chins so common among the poorly
bred natives of London were largely
due to the absence of light.

"It gives me pleasure to testify to the
curatiTo qualities of Pcruna and Mana
lin. "I was afliicted for over seven years with
catarrh of the head, throat and digest'
Ive organs. I consulted many physicians,
but Xlwy did me no good.
"One day I Lappccd to read sorao tes
timonials zn your Permit almanac. I
decided to try Peruna and Manalin. I
bought a bottle of each, and after toking
thein for a week I noticed a change for
the bctteu So I kept it up, and after
using twelTO bottles 1 was perfectly
cured. "I also gave tbo medicine to my chil
dren and they had the same beneficial
result. I would never be without these
remedies in tho house.
1 highly recommend Peruna and
danalia to all my friends, and in fact
to evcrvbodv."
Miss Mildred Grey, 110 Weimar St.,
Appicton, Wis., writes:
"It gives me plcasuro to recommend
Peruna for catarrh of the stomach. I
had this disease for a number of years,
ami could not enjoy a mouthful of food
thai I ate. It was indeed a reat relief
when I hit upon Peruna. and obtained
decided results from the first. I took six
bottles before I felt entirely cured of my
trouble, but I had an aggravated case." v
Pure White Lead
is the Natural
Faint Pigment
Numerous
compounds
are being
offered to take
the place of
white lead as
a paint, but no
real substitute
for it has yet
been ionnd.
Pure White
Lead has a'
peculiar
property of
amalgamating
with the wood
upon which it is used added to this
it has an elasticity which permits the
paint 'o follow the natural expansion
and a ntraction of the wood. Pure
White Lead (with its full natural te
nacity and elasticity, unimpaired by
adulterants), alone fulfills all the re
quirements of the ideal paint. Every
ke which bsVrs th Dutch Boy trade
mark is positively guaranteed to be ab
. solutely Pure
White Lead
made by the Old
Dutch Process.
