KOEHNE ON JUDAISM.
He Draws Another Big crowd With His
Great Eloquence.

He Draws Another Big Crowd With His
Great Eloquence. q
Rev. j. B. Koehne spoke to a house
full Thursday evening Even the
front seats were filled. A little after
s o'clock Rev. 81. S. Roblee introduced
the speaker and stated the subject of
address namely " Judaism. The
speaker in his opening stated the ques-
tons that absorbed the occident and
tie orient, the one seeking after the
finite and the other the infinite. The
third question which must necessarily
arise, that of the relation of the two,
that is man and God, it required the
Jewish genius to answer. There the
Jewish religion began and there was
the commencement of Rev Koehne's
speech in which he gave Il minute,
philosophic and profound analysis and
history of the Jewish mind and reli-
gion.
1t would be incommensurate with
our space and ability to attempt any
thing like an adequate outline o. the
lecture Thursday evening. 1t was full
of scholarship, eloquence and wisdom
with wit and humor adroitly inter
spersed The only complaint that can
be made is that there is perhaps too
much heavy material for the narrow
space Mr.. Koehne speaks with
almost unprecedented rapidity. The
thoughts are so crowded THAI they
seem actually to jostle one another in
their haste for utterance. This elo-
quence is swaying because he deals
with great truths of which he himself
appreciates the vast significance. He
is truly q remarkable orator

A FINE RESOLUTION
Adopted by the Republican Ward eau
cuses Friday Evening.

Whereas, there is now pending IN
the Senate of the State of Wisconsin,
a Joint Resolution, numbered 1O-A,
introduced by Assemblyman Thomas
81. D(osher, of Racine County, the same
having passed the Assembly; and
Whereas. the intent of this resolution
is to submit to the people Of the State
of Wisconsin the question whether the
State Constitution shall be SO amended
as to enable the State to grant aid in
the improvement of wagon roads
designed and to be used solely for free
public travel
Resolved, BY the Republicans OF the
Third Ward of the City Of Kenosha,
Wis, in caucus assembled on this goth
day of March, 1897, that We heartily
approve Of the submission of this ques-
ton to the people. We believe that
not only should State aid in the shape
of money payments be given toward
the improvement of wagon roads, but
that the veXing question of contract
convict labor should be settled, by the
diversion Of the labor of the inmates Of
our penitentiaries, jails and work
houses, from the making Of articles In
competition with free and honest
labor, to the preparation of road mate
rial and the improvement OF roads.
Resolved, that copy of these Reso-
lutions be sent to Assemblyman John
F. Reynolds, of Kenosha county, with
the result that they be placed in
proper hands in the Senate, and that a
copy be sent to the EVENING News
for publication, and be it further,
Resolved, that the Delegates from
this ward to the City Convention to be
held in Kenosha, March 9th, next, be
instructed to present these resolutions
to the said City Convention for further
action.

ST. LOVE.
WRITTEN FOR THE EVENING NEWS.

monk lay dreaming in his cell,
When over the cold gray stones there fell
Soft silken fabrics warm and bright,
And tapers dimmed in Gods white light.
While from the walls hung pictures fair,
And one a.maiden, radiant, rare.
Like no Madonna masters PAIN,
Nor found in calendar, a saint.
And yet, a winsome face 'twouid seem
AS ever haunted painters dream,
A face this monk had seen before:
Had seen and loved in years of yore
OF what proud manor reigns she queen:
What cloistered shades her charms have
seen?
Are thoughts intruding night and day,
And quite as often thrust away.
Not fasting, penance, prayers galore.
Can drive her presence from his door.
She lives still crowned, beneath, above,
The Fair of all fair saints, St. Love.
And whom he loves not having seen.
Who Ger his image casts bis sheen
Shall lead him on to realms above,
Where every gate swings wide TO love-

Captain Adolph Frietsche, who
started from here the first of November
'96 on the little schooner Schlitz Globe,
for trip around the world is back in
this city without his boat and having
gone no further than LaSalle, Illinois,
where the boat still lays. The failure

is misunderstanding between him.

How Their Initial Velocity Ii Calculated
In Tests at sandy Hook.
To the layman one Of the interesting
features In a big gun test Is the method
by which the initial velocity Of the
projectiles Ia calculated. When he hears
that the modern high power guns often
expel shot at an initial velocity Of
s,0OO feet second, rate that II sus-
tanned would mean u mile In three SEQ
onds. he realizes the difficulty Of oalou-
lating the speed Anordnanoe ofiicAr
must have accurate knowledge of the
velocity Of pyojeotile, that he may pre-
dict its ranRs and penetration and de-
termine tbs accuracy Of the gun. Il n
a comparatively easy matter, however.
with tvnew instruments to calculate
accurately the initial velocity OF O pro-
jeotie, and any one who IL fortunate
en'ugh to visit Sandy Hook when big
gins are being tested may sec how Il Il
ione.
Two open frames are set up 100 feet
gapart in front Of the gun. Wires are
stretched back and forth across these
frames. making screen through which
the shot must pass. The wires In each
screen form complete electric cirouit

and an electro magnet The projeotila.

as TO DO hardly conceivable the proieo-
tile has covered the distance between
the two frames and pierced the wire In
the second, interrupting its electric our
rent and releasing the armature Of its
magnet, asNin the first case. The inter-
val between the drop Of these two ar
natures represents the time spent by
the projectile In travelling $50 feet.
This time IL indicated by the chrome

indicates the distance through which
the rod has dropped while the projectile

This forms the unit for the calculation
of the projeotiles velocity in feet per
second. New explosives and high power
guns have increased the initial velocity
Of projectiles wonderfully In the last

Here Is a tale Of a strange animal
friendship told by a writer in recent
issue Of The Westminster Gazette The
story IL unique. According to the writer,
lioness that was kept In captivity In
Somaliland adopted u bull terrier. There
were several bull terrier puppies near
the place where she was confined, and
once IN awhile the little fellows would
come close to the cage. Then she would
snarl, and the puppies would scamper
back, but there was one that seemed to
have the good will Of the lionness, for
one day when he approached the cage,
instead Of growing, she showed signs
Of pleasure,
The puppy was encouraged, and after
blinking at the lioness no walked boldly
in. To the surprise Of the keeper, who
was expecting to SEQ the puppy quickly
killed, tho iioness stretched out her
huge paw and gently drew the dog In.
The little fellow was delighted with his
reception. and he Struggled into her
warm fur and has remained with her
ever since. The curious thing IL that
the lioness will have nothing to do with
the other puppies. II they come to tho
Gage to see how their little brother Ia
getting along, she growls at them In
tones 30 loud and menacing that they
are frightened off. Meanwhile the
adopted puppy IL treated by the lionesu
just AZ II he were cub Of her own.

May Not Get ALI the Locks and Dams
Bids Sent to Washington.

The work OF tabulating the bids
for the construction of the new Mon
ongahela locks and dams has been
completed. 1t was stated yesterday
in Major Powell's Office that the bids
will probably be forwarded to Wash
ington to-day. How soon the award
of the contract will be made cannot
be exactly stated.
Bids for the six locks and dams
were called for in three groups of two
each. G. |. Mcdonald, of Pittsburg,
was the lowest bidder in every in
stance, but it is thought that only
four of the locks and dams will be
built by him, for the reason that the
work can be done more quickly by
two ditfereut contractors.
w G. lutte, of Jutte & Co., one Of
the bidders, is reported as saying
that certain parties have resorted to
artful measures by which they hope
to secure to themselves the contracts
for the work. The assertion is that a
resolution was introduced in the
Pittsburg coal exchange and the
chamber of commerce urging that
the contracts be awarded to contract
ors other than the lowest bidders.
The resolutions were modified in both
instances so that they now appear on
the minutes as simple recommend
alton that the Government work be
pushed as rapidly as possible
