Army Jokes With Il Moral.

During the civil war" said an ex-

reason were anxious to move troops up

to the engineer in that district asking
what it would cost to run up the Tom
bigbee. That official got gay and re-
ported that the Tonlbigbee ran down
and not up, joke that promptly land
ed his head in the basket. as the mat.
ter was serious.
'At the bombardment Of Charleston
it was extremely desirable to bring to
bear on the city an extra heavy gun
called by the men the Swamp Angel.
The gun took it's name from the swamp
in which it stood. and to move it
through that Doggy morass was an en-,
gineering feat of extreme difficulty.
However, the commanding officers were
determined to have the gun brought
within range of Charleston and issued
they sent word to the engineer having
the matter in charge Of requisition
without regard to trouble or expense
for anything necessary to accomplish
the desired object. His first requisi-

the matter in charge. from which it can
readily be deduced that it is not pay

State Superintendent l.. d. Harvey
has arranged to send state institute
conductor from one of the State Normal
Schools into the county for week s
work under the direction of the county
superintendent. During the week the
conductor will visit schools in the county
with the county superintendent, and will
address meetings of those interested in
the common schools, at the places and
on the dates named below. An earnest
invitation is extended to teachers, men,
bers of school boards, patrons of the
school, and all others who are interested
in improving the conditions of the com
mon schools. This opportunity for the
conductor to visit the district schools
and observe the conditions under which
the work is carried on will aid him, and
through him, the school from which he
comes, to better understand the needs of
these schools, and will bring the normal
schools into closer touch with the
country schools. This is one of the chief
reasons for undertaking the work. The
conductor will address those in attend
ance at the meetings upon the following
subjects:
Improvement in the Teaching where
Needed. and How it may be occurred"
This will involve consideration of the
advantages of the County Training
School for country teachers, where such
a school is needed, and will make clear
the small expense to the county, involv-
ed in the maintenance of such school
Economy and Efficiency in the Con-
solicitation of Small Schools, and the
Transportation of Children to and from
the Central School when necessary, at
Public Expense" The discussion of this
topic will show what is being done IN
this state in this direction, and what has
been accomplished in other states. 1t
will make clear the possibility of better
schools without increased expenditures
"The Possibility of Securing Instruc-
ton in the Elements of Agriculture and
in Domestic Economy for the country
boys and girls through County Schools
of Agriculture and Domestic Economy
and Through instruction in the District
Schools" The discussion of this topic
will bring out what is done in other
states and countries, what is needed in
Wisconsin, and what it is possible to do
through the help of the people who arc
most directly interested.
These matters interest you personally.
These meetings are arranged in your in
terests Come out to them and hear the
address and take part in the discussion.

100 Plants Weigh 33 Pounds.

This is to certify, that we the under
signed packers and dealears of tobacco,
bear witness to the correctness of the
following statements, concerning THE
MAMMOTH SPANISH TOBACCO,
which we all personally examined.
1t is correct in style throughout all
the grades, maintaining the correct
width in proportion to it's length, being
we'll rounded and perfect in shape, The
width being fully and over one-half as
wide as the length.
That, unlike tobacco of extra large
growth, it is not coarse, but very thin.
silky, tough and elastic, of smooth clear
texture, and devoid of coarse grain.
From the abundance of tobacco ICON
sidering the area upon which it was
grown it demonstrates the fact that
there are more leaves to the plant, than
on the types now cultivated.
Concerning uniformity and evenness
of leaf, there are 260 pounds of tobacco
from % to % inches long, and about 80
pounds from Is to % inches long from
$40 pounds. The shorter grades being
more than consumed for tying material.
The grades are as follows; Is pounds
Is to 20 inches; 81 pounds, 20 to %
Inches; IS pounds, % to "a inches; 1O3
pounds "a to 26 inches, and y pounds
from Is to % inches: In all $40 pounds.
On the whole, it is an EXTRA LARGE,
FINE, SILKY, STYLISH AMI EXTRA
LEAFY TOBACCO, which we cheer
fully recommend to tobacco growers.

The charter in which the church was
first granted tithes In England Is q
curious historical document. A literal
translation follows: 81. EthelwoIfe, by
the grace of God, King Of the West
SaXons with the advice Of the Bishops,
Earls and all persons of distinction in
my dominioas, have. for the health Of
my soul, the good Of my people, and
the prosperity Of my kingdom. taken
the honorable resolution Of granting
the tenth part Of the lands throughout
my whole kingdom to the Church and
Ministers Of religion, to be enjoyed by
them, with all the privilege Of free
tenure. and discharged from all the In
cumbrances incident to lay-fees. This
grant has been made by us in honour
of Jesus Christ. the Blessed Virgin,
and all Saints. and out of regard to
the Pascal solemnity, and that Al
mighty God might vouchsafe his bless
ings on us and on our posterity. Dated

Geological Time.

An ingenious theory for the estima-
ton of the time of the various geo.
logical periods has been propounded by
an engineer whose work on western
railroads takes him into primitive
country. He says that In one great de-
preston in Wyoming the trees have
been recording the rate Of erosion Of
the slopes for about 300 years SO accu-
rately that the data to be obtained by
careful study Of them will be fac
tor Of extreme importance In enabling
scientists to convert geological time
Into years. While he has not yet had
time to collect those data properly. he
makes the rough deduction that, &C.
cording to their records the pliocene
and pleistocene periods would repre-
sent about 100000 years. and that.
on this basis, the cenizoic time would
be about 100000 years. This would
mean that all geological time from the
beginning of the Cambrian epoch
would be 64,OOO,OOO years.

that II attracts attention to the ar

IL has been said that the greatest OBJ
stacle to city government by the
people is the opposition Of successful
business men To an honest and impair
tial city government. Business men
want special privileges not granted to
everyone. IL they We're granted To
everyone they would not be special.
and neither would they be privileges
For instance. IL all firms were allowed
To project signs any distance into the
air space belonging to all, there would
be no object in IL because in the con
fusion of banners and street signs. one
mans sign would be overlooked
The volume of people who pass up
and down a given street make il val
liable. To grant the privilege of the
most conspicuous place in the street
to one firm is an injustice to all other
firms in the same business i'm the city,
II trespasses on the prerogative of the
whole people, it makes the law ridicu-
lous and teaches contempt for it, The
city can afford to do its own lighting
II can better afford to lessen the num-
Der of lights than To allow one firm by
the authority of the city council to
defy its own ordinances. Lincoln had Il
city council three or four years ago
which was impervious to the blandish-
ments of this or that business man,
and dealt out even handed Justice to
all. The present council is now expert
encing the result of granting the privi-
lege of sidewalk space to one firm
Many firms are now demanding that
they be given the same privilege. The
sign in question should come down or
all the other merchants i'm the city
should be granted the same privilege.
The latter alternative would make the
city still more untidy and unattraCtive.
but material loss is not of so much
consequence as a loss of municipal in
teSrity and a recession by the city
council from it's own laws.
