Captain Jesse Sackett is round
ing the team into good shape and
says that the manner IN which the
men are developing in practice is
most gratifying 10 himself and the
managers. ThG team is not yet
what he desires. but a few days more
of practice will remedy this and
then the team win meet all corners.
OF the many hundreds OF people

Ioyvans Plan to Use Waste Products
for Manufacture of Paper.

Ioxxanx Plan to Use Waste Products
for Manufacture of Paper.
All Iowa is interested in the plan of
turning the waste products of the corn
fields of the western corn-produclng
States into paper, and paper OF such
quality that it will compare fayorably
with the famous japanese vellum. W.
r. Patterson, professor OF economies
and statistics Of the State University
of Iowa, investigated the process or the
National Fiber and Celluiose Company
while in Chicago in the interests OF the
commercial museum of the university.
Just common, ordinary cornstalks,
SO, 100000 tons of which are allowed
to rot yearly in several Western States
producing the greatest amount OF corn,
is the material from which, expert
mentally, the company has already pro-
duced excellent paper at cost ranging
from S24 to $50 per ton. The cost OF
manufacturing paper from wood pulp
or rags Is estimated at from 500 to
$75 per ton
over 100000 has been spent in the
perfection of machinery for the hand
ling of this material. An improved
thrashing machine which separates the
stalk from the leaves, huslls the ears,
delivers the stalks bound in bundles
ready for shipment and the parts OF
the plant valuable for stock food into
the barn has only recently been pat
.>e1 ,,c,fn H..
then shipped to a depithing plant,
where after passing through several
operations the pith is separated from
the hard fiber surrounding the stalk
and rolled. making an excellent quail
ty 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 success
fully Every vestige of the stalk Is
utilized in some manner. In prepar-
ing cellulose. guncotton. smokeless pow
der, varnish. artificial leather. rubber
substitutes. insulating materials, cleo
trical apparatus, linoleum and floor Gov
erings papier mache and interior dec
Orations, picture frames and signs, pa
per coverings, lubricants, golf balls and
sundry other products different parts
Of the stalk are said to be available.
The development of this industry will
mean much to the corn producer of
the middle west. Its progress will be
watched with intense interest.-St.

revised, for China is throwing off the
lethargy Of centuries; her crowded
provinces are awakening, and the old
est civilization in the world seems about
TO he born again.
The renaissance of China. however,
dates back much further than is gener-
ally appreciated. 1t began before Japan
had been compelled to emerge from her
hermitage, yet the Japanese, being
more shifty and mercurial people. and
as n nation famed for the absorption of
ideas, quickly sprang into power by
adopting Western notions. Now the ma
tons of the world are preparing for
what is regarded as the inevitable. The
United States is increasing its forces
In the Far East, and Is about to estab-
lish q strong military base in Hawaii.
Owing to her impregnable position
China grew up without q rival. The
neighboring tribes, forming the frinses
of the empire, We're duly impressed with
the power of the empire and paid will
ing homage to the giant. These tribu-
tares China treated with condescend-
ing patronage and the disdainful con
tempt calculated to keep them in sub
lection. When the Western nations be-
gan to knock at her door China very
naturally judged them to be similar to
the tribes on her borders and assumed
toward them the tone of superiority she
was accustomed to use. She even went
SO far as to denounce them as barbar-
ians and demanded tribute.
While it would be wrong to infer, as
IS SO often done. that there Is no such
thing as q national mind in China, it is
true that the present renaissance is not
general throughout the empire. In 9th
err words, there is not yet that unity OF
sentiment among the vast hordes in the
empire which is necessary for the Sue
cessfuI issue of any great nationalist
movement.
But China is an immense empire. 1t
has All area equal to more than one ana
half times that Of Europe. China
proper is about one-half the size of the
United States without Alaska and the
island possessions, or about seven times
the size of France. Communications,
for the great part. are In the condition
they were thousand years ago. There
are reads. which are not good except

Canal, and the numerous waterways.

WHERE WOLF SHOWS SKILL
Wonderful Intelligence Displayed
I'm EluGinK His Enemies.

The wolves now found in Jackson
| County are in size between the coyote
Of the western plains and the big
wolves found in the Ozark region. In
general appearance they bear a resem-
blance to the Scotch collie dog. They
| live in unfrequented places, generally
in the timber or along the streams, and
! Il favorite abode is In caves or under
| overhanging lodges of stone.
| Scratching out a shallow hole in the
ground, they line it with small sticks
and dry leaves Here the mother wolf
| takes care Of her young while the faith
| er is securing the country for miles
around in search Of food. He is rarely
seen by day, and then only for an in
slant, for he seems to melt away like
mist into the weeds or brush, his
tawny hide making 1t easy for him to
disappear from sight
| 1t is said that he has an especial lik-
| ing for mutton, especially young
lambs which fall an easy prey to him,
and that he is most frequently found
where sheep are numerous. But he
will not turn his nose up at tender lit
| tie pigs, and when lie cannot find 9th
err things more to his liking he will
not scruple to become a common chick
en- thief
But his skill in eluding his enemies,
especially human, is remarkable, and
this is one of the most aggravating
things about him. If a hunter succeeds
| in getting within gunshot of him the
chances are ten to one that no damage
will be inflicted. His hide is SO thick
and tough and is covered with such
heavy coat of fur that an ordinary dis
charge from a shotgun has little or

Fights for Burial Place.

John X. Boerger of MarysviIIc, O., is
fighting for II spot TO serve as his grave.
1t looks as if he will win his ease. The
Evangelical Lutheran church stands in
the way just now, but Boerger does not
mind that, for he is confident that his
body, after he dies, will be inferred
where he lesignates. Boerger's wife died
some time ago and he buried her in Il lot
which he purchased in the cemetery add
joining the church building. He wants
TO lie beside his wife when he dies, but
the trustees of the church have denied
him that right and Il short time ago he
brought legal action in the common pleas
court. He won his case, but the church
trustees appealed to the circuit court.
The case is the result of Il long existing
feud between the Evangelical Lutheran
and the Trinity churches here. Boerger
is Il member of the latter and for that
reason the trustees of the Evangelical
congregation claim that he has no right
To he buried in their cemetery.

Under the conditions of ordinary

pire may precipitate conflict. The

k,..inu the BibIe en- Cont.

Justice John NJ. Yirney, of New York
has abolished in his court the custom
of requiring a witness to kiss the Bible
when he is sworn. 1t has never been
apparent why kissing the Bible should
help a witness tell the truth, and we
now have Justice Yirney's statement
that it has no such effect. Justice Yir-
ney says 1t is a dissertation tending to
bring into common and contemptuous
use things which ought to be held So
cred. The distinction between a lie
and a lie under oath, as If the latter
were more depraved, has no foundation
In logic or morals. TO admit such Il
distinction is a piece of dangerous cas-
uistry tending to corrupt the common
mind. To make it the basis of the law
of perjury is to confirm the popular be
lief that legal distinctions have nothing

It is not in the interior that the
