Soil Wet and Dry.

Wet soil assumes a darker color than
dry because its particles thus become
semitransparent, as is the case also
with a piece of wetted tissue paper
or ground glass.
This change of color is due to the fact
that the intersticeS between the grains
of soil are filled with water, so that
the number of rejecting surfaces.
which in a dry condition scatter and
break up the light, are greatly reduced
in number. 1t follows that the total
amount of light reflected to the eye is
correspondingly diminished.
In short, as the color shade of an
object depends upon the proportion of
light that is reflected for all the light
that falls upon it, dry soil is lighter in
shade than wet, which reflects less
light. That portion of incident light
which wet soil fails to reflect pene-
trates below the surface, where it is
lost or absorbed.

ECHO OF KISHINEF MURDERS
Won Piehwe Charged with Instigating
Butchery of Jews. -

4, Butchery of Jews. ia
New York Sun Special Service. ...a
London, July 28.-The assassina-
ton Of Won Plehwe was foreshadowed
some months ago, in fact, ever since
the truth became known regarding the
Kishinef maSSacreS. It was charged
that Won Plehwe was the instigator of
these atrocities. He was the power
behind the throne and the most influ-
entail minister in Russia. His enc
mics far outnumbered those Of any
other living man.
Won Plehwe has been blamed for
forcing Russia into the war; but the
opinion in the European chancelleries
is that he was assassinated by nihil-
lists and not by a zealot anxious to
punish him for the mistakes of the
war.
Won Plehwe was the head Of, all
Russia's police systems and he has
sent thousands to their death and to
Siberia.
This mornings news has caused in
tense excitement thruout London. Full
details of the tragedy are printed in
extras. Everywhere the death is be-
ing discussed. It will make a great
change in Russia's policies, both do
nestle and foreign, and also in the
war. Some of the changes will be
immediate and radical.
It will likely lessen the tension of
the Anglo-Russian situation.
The excitement over the news is at
fever heat at continental capitals,
where the police are taking extra pre-
cautions.

SHORTAGE MAY
REACH 100000
--------------------------
spencers at Grinnell Supposed
to Have Plotted to Preserve
Their Good Name.
Special to The Journal.


Grinnell, Iowa. July 2S.-A short
600 is alleged to exist in the affairs
Of the First National bank of this city,
whose cashier, H. G. Spencer, and his
son, w. G. Spencer, the bookkeeper,
drowned in each others arms in a
lake near here ten days ago. .,g
The doors of the bank are closed
and the institution is in the hands Of
a national bank examiner.
If the alleged shortage exists, it
seems to have been made by the son
to protect the father. Charles H.
Spencer was the cashier Of the bank
ten years ago. One day he was killed,
presumably accidentally. Following
his death a shortage of $4,000 Is al
legged to have been discovered.
Now it develops that the alleged
shortage may have been made good
by securities that are worthless, and
that these. have BEEN carried for
ten years by H. G. Spencer, the cash
Ter. Whether the grandson's name,
who died with his father will be men
toned in the same connection is
problematical. 2>,.,. -ast,,,,g- .s5, t.,t7. -
Following the tragic drowning of
the father and son. no coroner's in
quest was held: The deaths were
firmly believed to be accidental The
elder Spencer's wife was the, only
was accepted. 9:'2&}%@
The possibility Of shortage in the
banks accounts was not considered
until after one night. S aaeWoTk SEE;the
