alike for him who receives as well as
for him who proffers the tip. II can
safely be predicted that should such a
foolish law be enacted il will remain
a dead letter and soon to be forgotten.
However disagreeable the tipping prac-
stice may be to some people and there
lis no doubt that it has come to. be

the longest penduliirns in the United
States for the purpose of performing
the Foucault experiment of Illustrating
the revolution Of the earth The pen
dulum will be upward Of 100 feet long
and the bob will be a chunk Of lead
weighing sixty pounds.
1t is the object of Professor Love
well to secure from his experiments
The material for a scientific paper to be
presented at the next meeting Of the
Kansas academy.
The pendulum bob will swing on a
steel piano wire from the top of the
air shaft to the basement. II will have
a sweep of about fourteen feet and it is
estimated that when once started its
will swing for half a day without stop
ping The pendulum will be SO ar
ranged that at the lowest point of its
swing the bob will trace It's course on
smoked glass, and this is where the
scientists obtain their tangible evidence
that the earth Is really turning on it's
axis.
The pendulum will not trace the same
straight line back and forth, but in the
lapse of 4 number of hours will trace
a double fan-shaped figure on the glass.
The tracing Is made with gcometrical
accuracy.

COL. CREEL IMPROVING
THE NATIONAL GUARD

Bismarck Palladium: Few people,
outside Of officers Of the National guard
of North Dakota know how very near
the state came to losing the appropria-
tion as provided for under the Dick
bill, and that without this appropriation
it would be impossible for the state to-
retain and maintain its present military
organization. Certain requirements had
not been met and the various compan-
les throughout the statk had been al
lowed to run idown untii they failed to
pass the required inspections conducted
by the war department. In many cases
this fault lay with company command
ers and again in many instances it was
because they had had not been inform
ed of what was required of them.
A short time after Adiutant General
Creel assumed the duties of his office he
discovered that these was something
radically wrong, and he Immediately
went to the bottom of the trouble. Att.
er much investigating and a great deal
of correspondence, he received the fol-
lowing startling Information from the
sWar department in the form OF let.
ter, which read as follows:
War Department, the military secre-i
tary's office. Washing gton, Nov. Il S, 1905
The Adjutant General, state of North

the army who conducted the 1905 in

North Dakota, under the provisions Of

series OF 1908, the acting secretary Of
war directs me to inform you that it
appears from the remarks of the in-
.specting officers that the organized
militia of your state is not sufficiently
armed, uniformed and equipped for ac-f
tive service in the field, as indicated
in memoranda furnished to you from
this office under date of August ~,
1905.
4. The acting secretary of war directs
me to add that under the circumstances,
the department is constrained to hold
that the organized militia of North Da-
kota is not sufficiently armed, uniform-

pate in the benefits of section III of

hold until it shall have received from

that measures have been taken to sup
