ship of the land on which trespass was
claimed had not been proven; that the
establishment Of the herd law by action
of the board of county commissioners
had not been shown; and, therefore,
asked the court TO instruct the jury to
find for the plaintiff. The court took an

THE PEOPLE OF MARS.
New Convert to Theory That Planet
Is Inhabited-Says Commune
cation Is Impossible.

Prof. Samuel A. Harker, occupying
the chair of mathematics and astrOn-
Omy in the University of Indianapolis,
lately gave out a statement that he is
a convert to the theories advanced by
Sir Robert Ball, Garrett Serviss and
others, that the planet Mars is in
habited, and that its people are ex-
ceedingly intelligent and enterPrising,
but it is impossible to communicate
with them.
Prof. HarI1er further says, accord
ing to the Cincinnati Enquirer, that
''the Martians are a people Of stu
pendous power and wonderful engi-
neering skill. Were 1t possible to sig
nal them, there is little doubt that
they would understand and reply, as
they are a race of enormous brain de-
velOPment."
Prof. Harker further adds that in
all of the thousands OF years of
the earth's history its people have
not succeeded in changing the face Of
the planet to any such extent as the
people of Mars have changed theirs,
but he sees no way Of signaling to
them. He does not take kindly to
the theory advanced by Tesla, Of cleo
trio signals conveyed through the
ether. as Prof. Harker believes 1t an i'm

energy to transmit the waves so far

ton Of one Of the finest railway bridges
that cross the Missouri river. with a

ing to the latest improved methods Of
engineering Attorneys for the Rock

committee the necessity Of the bridge.
They viii present data to show that the
present bridge, owned by the St. Joseph
& Grand Island railroad, is not Of suf-
6cient capacity to accommodate the bu-
siness Of the roads using It.
The construction Of the St. Joseph
draw-bridge across the Missouri river
will give the Rock Island its own tracks
across the river and save It some Of the
heavy tolls exacted for those privileges
at Kansas City.
The Rock Island is now figuring to
terminate Its contract for the use Of the
Burlington tracks from Cameron to
Kansas City. 1t may build a line Of its
own from Platte City or use the Kansas
City Northern Connecting tracks and
the Bates bridge when It Is finished.
The building Of the bridge at St. Joseph
win mean that st. Joseph and not Kan
sas City will be on the main line Of the
Rock Island.

half hour for the eavesdrOpper be-

Scotus and Judge" Lynch-the one
q shrewd, clear reasOner, whose name

pie Quaker gentleman, whose name
has come TO stand for organized saw
agery. Charles Lynch was a man
whose services to his country as a
brave pioneer and righteous judge, as
a soldier and a statesman, are by no
means deserving Of oblivion, still less
of OblOquy. 1t seems, indeed, one of
the iniquities of fate that his name
should now be universally applied to
proceedings that no one would con-
denim more heartily than he. The
records of the court of Bedford cOun-
". IN Virginia, and those OF various
Quaker meetings, the journals of the
