A friend has placed in our hands a
communication from A. W. Jaynea,
ert-'05, who is now located at Lead,
8. D., with the Northwestern. We
make a few extracts from the letter,
which are as follows:
"I am receiving the Dally Nebras
kan which I must say Is unusually
strong this year, and Is, J think,. dong
more for the 'N' than any other one
source and so with the letters I re
ceive I manage to keep pretty well
posted.
"I Hko my work up her, as Inspector
for the Western Railway Weighing
Association, and Inspection Bureau,
and I like the country. I have met a
number of fraternity men from col
leges all over the United Stales, who
havo come here for practical experi
ence in the mines. There are numer
ous largo mines around Lead, among
them the great Homestake, which em
ploys over 2,200 men, and which Is
the biggest gold mine In the world.
The greatest part of my work consists
In the inspection of car loads, and lc38(

and merchandise which come In here
consigned to the mines or merchants,
to see that the proper classification,
rates and weights are applied. In

The following letter Is from Chas.
M. Root, M. D., '00, who Is now prac
ticing at Newport, Neb., and we arc
permitted to publish it through the
courtesy of the friend to whom It was
addressed:
"Dear Old Rock Pounder:
"I thought that I wrote you after
I arrived In this place, but It seems
otherwise. When I got your last let
ter I was so Infernally busy that 1
couldn't get time to answer, but now
there Is a lull In the storm so I can
Bit down and tell you all about It.
"After seeing you in Lincoln I went
to Omaha on a prospecting expedition,
and hearing of this place, I came up,
and while tho country was not partic
ularly pleasing to the eye, it was to
tho dough pile, so I returned tc
Ulysses and packed up.
"This is a great hay country, with
' a little farming to tho north and o
ranch country to the south, but ha
is tho main thing. Drouth never af
fects the hay valleys here at the head
waters of the Blkhorn. And talk aboul
shooting! The country Is fairly alive
with chickens and ducks in their sea
son. Thousands of musk rats are an
nually trapped In the low marshy
ground around here. But to return
to my text, business has prospered for
mo since coming here. Last month I
booked over $400, so you see I do
some business.
"I am thinking of taking In com
mencement week In Lincoln next June.
Must close now, hoping to hear from
you soon. Truly,
' CHA9: H. ROOT."

The chief question of Interest In
girls' hasket-hall just now Is, Can tho
varsity team get Into form in two
weeks for its two matches at Minne
apolis? In tho absence of important
matches schedulod for the year, the
team has never really organized. In
fact, but onco this school year, and
that in December, has tho full first
team practised together. Some of the
members have come together an oc
casional onco a week on Thursday at
one o'clock, but practiced then, If they
practiced at all, without officers, with
out supervision and often with no op
posing players, so that there could bo
no real team developed.
In the two weeks before the team
Harts, the armory is to be had at no
regular lime for playing, and it Is not
pertain how strong- a team can be or
ganized in tho odd hours possible for
team practice. Another problem con
corns tho position of guard. Miss
Alice Towne of last year'B team Ib not
considered eligible this year because
of her connection wltlr-thoasslstants'
taff of the gymnasium: and Miss Ida
Taylor, captain, and brilliant guard,
has been called from school by the
illness of her father. The equal of
these in experience and form and
speed could not easily be developed
In a few practice games. It is ad
mitted that there are strong players
on the team, but there is not a little
difference between strong individual
players and a strong team, whose
members can "find each other in the
game," are familiar with each other's
styles of play, and Undw how to co
operate. Those at present on the team
are MlBses Jansa, Shinbur, Scott, Git
tings and Sly. Miss Scott has been
elected captain to succeed Miss Taylor.
