For the Kansas Exhibit.

Gov. Stanley will call the st.
Louis exposition commissioners to-
gether ut an early date in or
der that they may organize and
get down to business. 1t is under
stood that John c. Carpenter will
be chosen president of the commission
and Charles II. Luling secretary. Gov.
Stanley lately spent couple of days
in st. Louis and while there he loaded
up with suggestions which he will
submit to the commission. He be-
lieves that the commission should
begin early to interest the county
commissioners of the los counties in
the work of preparing for an exhibit.
"By the aid of these local officials"
the governor said, "the commission
would be able to collect samples OF
the best of everything in each To-
cality, and from the whole an exc
hibit could be selected with little
difficulty" 1t is likely that this years
wheat, the finest ever grown in the
state, will be saved for the exhibit.

Preserved Without Gamma.

Canned goods have their merits, but
much is now urged in favor of fruit
compressed into bricks which are
wrapped in oiled paper to prevent
drying. Our Agricultural Depart.
ment is taking much interest in the
innovation. The Australians accord
ing to the Pathfinder, already excel
in their fruit-pulp preserves of various
kinds, and it is believed that in Cali.
fornia especially vast industry along
this line can be developed. The
French are also experimenting with
fruit preserves in the brick form.
This form has certain advantages
over the liquid preserves, as it gets
rid of the expense and weight of the
glass or tin package. The purpose is
to make the brick preserves taste like
fresh fruit, and while complete sue
cess has not yet been attained it is be-
lieved that the difficulties can all be
overcome.

which. visited that vicinity Thursday
night, the following details being OBJ
tainable only late last evening:
One of the most destructive torna
does to human life that ever occurred
in Nebraska swept down Keya Paha
river, five miles south, Thursday night
Seven persons are known to have been
killed and several others injured of
whom two are believed to be fatally
hurt. The dead are Jacob Greening
and children, Margaret. Maggie. John

The injured are Mrs. Jacob Green.

Anderson, Theodore Anderson. Grace
Greening, Mr.. Herman. Mrs. Herman,
the family of Jacob Berg and the Metz
family.
All communication with the outside
world is cut off and it is impossible to
learn what damage the storm did along
the river, west of where the Greening
and Anderson families were found.
The dead were removed to a neigh
boris house and the wounded taken
care of by physicians from Naper.
Jacob Greening was found quarter of
mile from home badly bangled.
The storm cloud appeared about 5
o'clock and travelled down Keya Paha
river. 1t travelled by leaps and
bounds, jumping over several houses
directly in the path. The tornado was
stones measuring ten inches in cir
conference. Several horses and cat
tie were reported killed by lighting.
Everything in the track of the storm
was destroyed. Trees were blown
down and barb wire fences carried
hundreds of yards. The Anderson and
Greening houses were completely an

west of the city, totally demolishing
houses on the ranches, the occupants
barely escaping with their lives. The
storm overlook the mail carrier and
lady passenger coming from Silver
City. The buggy was demolished and
the two travellers had miraculous es-
cape. The horses have not yet been
found. In the city several hundreds
of dollars worth of damage was done
to window glass, the hail being the
worst experienced here for years.

Doing Good Work.

A dispatch from Jackson, Miss.
says: "The state agricultural and
mechanical college is now enjoying
the most prosperous year in its
history. More that 500 students have
attended this session, the largest
number since the college was organic
ed. The students are doing good
work in all the departments, and per-
feet order prevails among them.
The horticultural, agricultural, me-
chanical and dairy departments were
never so successful and prosperous as
this year. The board of trustees
during the year has added another
dof'mitory for the students, also built
a splendid system of waterworks and
an asterian well 900 feet deep, there
by providing an abundant supply of
water and insuring good health for
the boys. The textile building is
nearing completion and will be In
practical operation by commencement
in June next. The legislature of 1906
appropriated $4,000 for the establish.
ment of this splendid feature of our
college, and this sum has been greatly
! augmented by the generosity of north
ern and eastern manufacturers. A
sum aggregating s27, 1000 has been
given and the end is not yet, as the
donations continue to flow in. The
building proper is model of beauty
and strength"

Where Are the Mothers?

John Jeffries, president of the board
of supervisors, was an agreeable caller
at our Office last Monday. He per-
tinently remarked: What has becon'o

Not a mention is made of them in
connection with the great reunion. >
Sponsors, maids Of honor, daughters.
sons and their retinue of sponsors and
maids, and lastly the veterans, and
not a word of the mothers; and IL any
class of people deserves a halo OK
glory around their heads IL is the
mothers who gave their sons, brothers
and husbands freely to the bloody
sacrifice, endured the isolation, hor-
rors of raids, abuse of vandals, the
agony of suspense, suffered and en-
dured agonies of mind and hardships
of body that the soldier in the field
neither experienced nor realized.
Truly the mothers deserve at least a
recognition in the voluminous general
orders of many new-made generals.

Requests to southern colIsaes.

A Chicago millionaire, DR.. d. X.
Pearson, recently announced his in
tention to give the greater part of his
fortune to educational institutions.
Eastern schools will not receive any
thing, as Dr. Pearson has drawn line
through the country at Chicago and
cut off every school on the eastern
side of the line. ut would be I'M
fortunate" observes the Philadelphia
Record, "if this line should rob the
higher schools for whites in the south
of share of DR.. Parsons fortune.
1t is strange fact that with so many
millions annually given to universities
and colleges in the East and West
very little has gone to Southern col
leges in the past 30 years (the Van
derbilt University, at Nashville, ex-
cepted). 1t is true that the South
has not urged people to give, but Il
is to the interest of the whole coun-
try that the heroic efforts which the
southern people are making in behalf
of education should be aided by those
who are seeking to place their money
where 1t will best advance the cause
of learning"

She Sanq just the Same.

Senator Vests most famous anec-
dote is that of Miss BERTHE Allendale.
1t was told when the two chambers
were arrayed against each other on
the tariff of 1894, and the house was
insisting that the country would go
without any tariff act unless the
senate were prepared to forego its
own schedules and adopt those Of the
house.
In my younger days out west" SAID
Mr. Vest, 81 went into variety
theater one night.
Miss BERTHE Allendale, remarked
the stage manager, appearing in one
of the interludes, who has entranced
two hemispheres with her wonderful
vocal powers, will now render, in her
own inimitable style, that exquisite
vocal selection entitled Down in the
Valley
"A gentleman in a req flame shirt
arose in the midst of the audience and
exclaimed in an impressive bass
voice: oh, thunder! Miss Allendale.
can't sing for green applesi'
THE manager, who had started TO
leave the stage, halted and turned.
An ugly light flashed from the eye
which swept the audience and finally
rested on the face of the interrupter.
Raising one shoulder higher than the
other and letting one hand drift
significantly toward his hip pocket
and thrusting his neither jaw forward
III a savage way he observed with n
dellberateness which emphasized
every syllable:
Nevertheless and notwithstand-
ing, Miss BERTHE Allendale will sing
Down in the Valley
And she did. So, likewise, never
theless and notwithstanding, the
senate schedules will stand."-St.

sidered by the Eskimos as pleasant 10
the taste as any description of salt
water bird known to them.
THE harp seal derives its mama
from white lines and marks ON -its
back resembling closely the harm
The hood seal is the most difRcplt -
catch, for he is not only a ferocious
animal, when attacked, and possessino
marvellous vitality, but when hunted
he will initiate his hood-the tbick
pocket with which he enyelops his
head, from which he derives his mama
and it is so thick and hard as TO he
impenetrable by either spear or bul.
let A blow on this hood with
club will have no more effect than
would a similar blow upon a stone
wall; but blow back of the ears or
on the throat will ready bring him to
submission.
The hood seal is the most eagerly
sought for, from the fact of its great
quantities Of fat and because both
male and female are so fond of the
baby seal that invariably whole fami-
lies are found either on the ice or in
the igloo and are readily corralled and
killed. All seals have their young
early in March but other species than
the hood are apt to leave their young
when hunted and will take to the
water before the hunter can get with
in good shooting distance. They will
scent a hunter great distance,
especially if the hunter is TO the wind
ward of them, and no sooner does the
scent become perceptible than they
dash off to the water.
by the eagerness of the hunter,
especially the inexperienced one, it
not infrequntly occurs that he will
lose in the hunt nearly 10 per cent.
Of what he kills, for the reason that
he piles up carcasses on the ice at
great distance from the ship. In such
case while transporting the skins
to the vessel they may become frost
bitten, which makes them worthless,
and often they are capsized from the
ice foe in a gale,
After the seal is caught the skin
ner removes the fat, often from 500
seals in 10 hours, and about 5000
pounds of seal fat will produce $50
gallons of oil. This is worth about
$40 a ton. But the skinner must needs
be very careful in his work; for
every hole thai he may cut i'll the skin
a fine of 10 cents fine is laid. AS the
food of the seal Is largely goldfish and
whiteflsh, the increase of seals means
a corresponding decrease of Goldfish,
hence it behooves the fishermen of
Newfoundland to keep up a sharp war
on the seal herds in the vicinity of
the Newfoundland fishing banks in
order that the cod fishermen may not
lose their business. Hence sealing
is profitable to the Newfoundland fish
ing community in two ways"
