MukDEN VICTORY MOST POTENT.
Is Factor in Shaping History of All
the World.

Now that the full measure of the
Russian disaster in Manchuria is un.
derstood, Europe is beginning to take
stock of the new situation in world
politics by this momentuous conflict
The battle of Mukden is universally
recognized as factor which must have
inestimable influence in shaping the
history of all great peoples. The
changes which it will impose upon ex.
listing international relationship is re-
ceiving the attention of European
statesmen. They see first that paraly-
sis of Russia in Asia will release Chi
ma, Turkey, Germany and Great Brit
ain from enormous pressure. This eff
feet, except in the case of Turkey,
will make for peace and should enable
Europe to make great reductions in
ornaments, with corresponding relief
of public burdens.
Pekin will be relieved from Russian
dictation, although perhaps threatened
by other mentors, and Germany will no
longer be threatened by invasion of
both her frontiers. While the Anglo
French entente has much strengthened
the intimate understanding between
Great Britain and France, the United
States will unquestionably become per.
haps the controlling factor in safe
guarding the worlds peace.
Free Russia would undoubtedly aban
don the mad dream of dominating the
Pacific, but she would certainly con
centrate her energies to secure a more
natural outlet to the Mediterranean
This means the driving of the sultan
out of Europe. Indications are Abdul
Hamid will not wait for such a crisis
European diplomacy is anxiously occu
pied at the present moment with prob
lens of how to prevent him Selling
the opportunity of Russian embarrass
ment to settle old scores in Macedo
MIA and against Bulgaria.

| General Linevitch Has a Chance.
| London.-The military experts of
the British empire, despite their pro-
Japanese leanings, admit that there is
still a chance that General Linevitch
will succeed in eXtricating his army
from its present perilous position.
They base their opinions on the re-
ports that have come from the front
by both Japanese and Russian soldiers,
to the effect that the Japanese we're
so badly pressed at the battle of Muk-
den that for "a hours the fate of the
Japanese army hung in the balance
But for the fact that General Oku
despite the knowledge that his last
reserves were engaged detached a di-
vision to the aid of Nogis veterans,
Kuropatkin might have secured a COM
plete victory. Had the Russian COM
mander possessed sufficient initiative
he would have drawn his last reserves
into the battle, and must surely have
checked the desperate Japanese ad.
vance.
1t is believed here that the Japanese
and Russians are now engaged in a
race for Hardin. and that neither have
any decided advantage. There is rea-
son to believe that the Japanese re-
ports to the erect that a Japanese
army had succeeded in getting to the
northWestward Of the retreating Rus
SLAMS is not true and that the most
! that has been done is to send a scout
ing party in so far as the railroad
without any supports or supplies and
absolutely unable to hold their lines
intact against any large force of Rus
slams
The reason for this belief is that
numerous press dispatches, filed at
the stations Immediately north of Muk-
den, were delivered in st. Petersburg
on Sunday. While they covered most
ly accounts of the fighting from March
6 to IS, the mere fact that they have
reached the Russian capital would in
dictate that the Manchurian railway
lines of retreat are still open.
That the Japanese will try to take
Hardin is sure, but the result of the
lematic until such time as it is learned
just how large a quantity of supplies
General Kuropatkin lost.

Two BALLOONISTS In ACCIDENT
AT WALLACE, IDAHO.
Professor O'DeIl and Dell Dare Were
About IFS Feet High in the Air
When the Old Balloon Ripped In
Two and Aeronauts Fell-Para.
chutes Fail to Work,

Wallace, Idaho, March 20.-In a
double balloon ascension at the city
park Sunday afternoon the lower parts
of the balloon tore away when the
two aeronauts, Professor ODell and
Dell Dare, were between $50 to 200
feet IN the air and both were dashed
to the ground. Nearly every bone in
O'DelPs body was broken.
Dare did not sustain a broken bone
but was internally injured and died
soon after. A young boy named Glib
son was caught by the falling balloon
and completely covered. The hot air
burnt him about the face and body be-
fore he could be dragged from under
meath the canvas, but he is not serious
ly injured.
Several hundred people had assem-
bled in various parts of the CITY to
witness the ascension. AS soon as the
balloon left the ground to the horror
of the nearby spectators, the lower
part of the bag could be seen ripping
away. Warnings were shouted to the
two unfortunate men but they could
not hear the alarm
When between $50 and 200 feet high
the two men, seated in separate para.
chutes, swung together with a crash
that could be heard for long distance
and at the same time the lower por.
ton tore away and to the horror OF
the onlookers the men commenced to
fall. Although their fight took but a
few moments, O'Dell, who is the more
expert of the two, could be seen at
tempting to force his parachute open
but on account of the short distance il
would not yield. Both men were close
together and while O'Dell endeavored
to open his parachute he could be OBJ
served holding his companion by the
shoulder in an attempt to save him
if his parachute opened, Dare made
no movement, simply clinging to the
ropes.

Fall Together.

The thud made by the two men
when they fell could be heard for over
a block, the ground being indented
where they alighted. Both struck the
ground near ore another and at the
same time, both barely grazing the
furnace where the balloon was in.
flated. q Dell fell in a more relaxed
manner and his fall was partially
broken by Dare, which accounts for
his lesser injuries. Dare never re-
gained consciousness.
The balloon tore on account of its
age and the weight of the two men.
1t was the 18th ascension O'Dell had
made in it. His correct name is L.
M. O'DelI.
O'Del's home is Newmarket, Iowa,
where his mother, Mrs. Mary O'Dell,
resides.

WORTHLESS LAND
SCRIP.

Advertisements have appeared in
scme of the newspapers offering
for sale "United States government
land scrip" 1t is usually stated
that this scrip is fully guaranteed,
the Implication being that the gov
ernment is the guarantor. The ad-
vertisers declare that this scrip
will take title to any government
timber lands in any Western or
Southern State, and that the pur-
chaser does not need to live on the
land a single day.
What is usually offered for sale
in these advertisements is rarely
ever script Actually there are
three classes OF government land
script. The oldest form was given
by the government IN the early
years OF the nineteenth century in
satisfaction Of private land claims
held by the Americans in the South
and West from foreign governments
that ceded these parts of the coun-
try 10 the United States. This form
ia now almost unknown. The
second issue was made under the
general land act Of June. 1858, and
satisfied claims arisiDg largely in
Louisiana. 1t could be used, how
ever, to acquire anywhere 10 the
United States land which had once
been offered at public sale. The
total of this scrip outstanding is
something over 100000 acres.
The third sort Of scrip was also
applicable only to land which had
once been offered At public sale.
This scrip was the military bounty
land warrants. Any soldier who
was once in the service before 1855
was entitled to certain amount.
Scrip covering 6l,00O,OOO acres
was issued. OF the amount still
outstanding two certificates came
to the land office last winter with
an inquiry as to their value. It
was slight, as land once offered at
public sale and now remaining is Of
small value. With the exception
of<a few minor issues these three
forms Of scrip represent the total
government output.

CORNSTALK.
LONG DISPISED, A USE HAS
BEEN FOUND FOR IT

| All Iowa is interested in the plan
of turning the waste products Of
the corn fields of the Western CORE
producing States INTO paper, and
paper of such quality that it will
compare favorably with the famous
japanese vellum. w. r. Patter-
son, professor Of economies and
statistics of the State University of
Iowa, investigated the process of
the National Fiber and Cellulose
Company while in Chicago IN the
interests of the commercial mu.
scum of the university.
Just common ordinary cornstalks,
5000, 600 tons of which are al
lowed to rot yearly in the seven
Western States producing the great
est amount of corn, IS the material
from which, experimentalIy, the
company has already produced ex.
cellent paper at cost ranging from
$24 to *25 rer ton. The cost of
manufacturing paper from wood
pulp or rags is estimated at from
$50 to $75 per ton.
Over 100000 have been spent
IN the perfection of machinery fo'
the handling Of this material. An
improved threshlng machine which
separates the stalk from the leaves,
husks and ears, delivers the stalks
bound in bundles ready for ship
ment, and the parts of the plant
valuable tor stock food INTO the
barn, has only recently been pat
ented. These bundles of corn
stalks are then skipped to. a de.
pilhing plant, where after passing
through several operations, the p,th
is separated from the hard fiber
surrounding the stalk and rolled,
making an excellent quality of
paper. The hard outside fiber is
used in the manufacture of box
board.
The company has an option on
paper mill at kankakee, ILL.,, where
the machines have been operating
successfully. Every vestige of the
stalk is utilized In some manner.
In preparing cellulose, gun cotton,
