cursiOn club" is an organization that
has been formed for the novel and
worthy purpose of giving to teachers

tunity to see the worlds fair at St.

der which the club has been formed

A nebrnskn Theorist.

Are farmers making too much mon
ey? Should they not be satisfied with
lower prices for their products? Should
not the aid of the government be in
voked to restrain them from charging
such prices for food stuffs as now pre-
vail? These questions are asked in a
pamphlet issued by Professor Davisson
OF the University of Nebraska. Inas-
much as Nebraska hasn't a single inn
portaut industry aside from agricul-
ture in some form the learned gentle
man is apt to hear some answers to
his questions right at home that will
enIighten him. or If he wants a practi-
cal demonstration he might get farm

WINDS THE CLOCK.
Source of Power That Keeps Big

Motion.
FOR So YEARS DUTY OF W. j. PRATT
Old EmpIoye at Rock Island Arse
nal Entered In Argus Ser
vice Contest.

No doubt many who have looked at
the big dial of the clock that has run
steadily for the past SO years in the
tower of the old government ware
house on Fort Armstrong avenue have
wondered where the power has come
from that has kept the wheels revolv-
ing with such regularity during that
long period. Some may have thought
that the clock was electrically operat-
ed or that there was some complicat-
ed mechanism connected with it that
kept it in motion.
The clock, however, is just an or
binary big time piece with pendulum
and weights, and it must be wound
every week. The work of winding il
is looked after by w. j. Pratt, of 1924
Fourth avenue, this city, and it is Il
matter of no little pride ON the part
of Mr.. Pratt that since the clock was
installed in 1867 he has never failed to
be on hand at the proper time to
wind the clock. For Sc years he has
attended to this duty with regulari-
ty equal to that of the clock itself,
which has long been the main agent
in setting the standard of time for
the tri-cities. Mr.. Pratt is molder
by trade, and has been employed at
Rock Island arsenal for the past 81
years. He is 81 years of age. Mr..
Pratt is entered in The Argus Faithful
