KNOWLEDGE AND CULTURE
The Two Do Not Necessarily Walk

Ahe Two DO Not Necessarily Walk
Hand In Hand.
High marks in examinations depend

er, and its reward strikes further in.
Assimilation Of the best that has been
thought and accomplished affects not
merely the brain, but the character
the whole spirit of man. Culture
Implies a soil plowed and fertilized,
where whatever seed falls has the
better chance for growth. Informa.
ton even in vast quantities, so long
as 1t remains mere information, used
for purposes of passing examinations,
need not affect the manners nor the
morals of man; both may remain
hopelessly lax in an encyclopaedia
mine of facts. But culture affects
primarily the manners and the morals
A cultured gentleman has external
methods of getting on with his kind;
he has the true sense of relationship,
the feeling that all he can learn to feel
or to be is not for himself but for
service; he knows himself in net

DANCING PILGRIMS.
The Annual Carnival of the "saints"
of Echternnch.

On every succeeding Whitsun Tues
day from time immemoral 10000 to
10000 pilgrims of both sexes and Of ev.
cry age and condition of life dance
for four or five hours at Echternach in
the grand duchy Of Luxembourg, to an
unmistakable polka tune and an appar-
emily nOnsensical refrain. The central
figure Of this great Echternach Spring
procession" is st. Willibrord, who mi
grated from Northumberland to the
frontiers Of the Black forest twelve
centuries ago. Emperors and kings
have in vain forbidden the saints" Of
Echternach TO indulge in their annual
carnival.

that their best hope of freedom from

mystic dance Of five steps forward and

hours indescrlbable toll, they cover the

and the goal at the steps of st. Will

THE WOOLSACK.
1t Is In the House of Lords and Yet
Is Not Part of II.

II Is In the House of Lords and Yet
Is Not n Part of II.
1t Is curious fact that the woolsack
on which the lord chancellor sits in the
British house of lords Is not, strictly
speaking, in the house Of lords, and
this is why when the lord chancellor
rises to take part In debate he first of
all moves away from the woolsack to
his own place as peer before he
speaks.
The fact, too, explains why noble
lords who desire to avoid voting some
times merely withdraw to the wool
sack, where, not being in parliamen-
tary sense within the house, they are
not counted in division.
Again, though the lord chancellor Is
now invariably peer, he Is not neces-
snrlly so, and as a matter Of fact the
office has been held several times in the
past by commOners. In such cases the
lord chancellor could take no part in
debate, not having place in the house
as n peer, and his functions as speaker
were strictly limited to the putting of
questions and other formal proceed
ngs regulated by precedent from the
woodstock

SoUAW MEN IN CONTROL.

Conditions In Shoshoni Reservation
Not Attractive to White Men.
WILDER Whitmore, former Lincoln
young man, after spending some
months on the Shoshone reservation,
or rather that portion allotted for set
tlement has concluded that he does not
see anything there that would lead a
man to invest in a claim. In a letter
to his brother Mr. Whitmore SAYS that
he has had enough of the reservation
and will move on to some other more
promising land.
He declares that the grazing lands
of the reservation cannot support any
more livestock than at present and he
has been trying to figure out, without
success, how enough forage can be
raised to feed the increase which must
come by the thousands with the set
tiers.
Mr.. Whitmore thinks that the COM
ing of the railroad will put this Sec
ton of irrigated land in fierce compe-
tition with other more fortunately
placed sections to the disadvantage
OF the reservation farmers. He de-
clares that farmers will not be able to
find a market for their produce at
home.
Mr., Whitmore states that much of
the land can not be watered because
there are so many buttes and bluffs
that interfere. He thinks therefore
that those who own land which can be
readily irrigated will be compelled to
pay very high rental for water.
He can not see any money ahead
for those who buy land from fifteen
TO forty miles from the railroad and
then attempt to market their products.
Mr., Whitmore notes that "squaw
men" are very common on the reser-
walton and that the Shoshone Indian
tribe, as well as others in the vicinity,
are crossed with liberal quantity of
Caucasian blood. He declares that
white men married to red women of
various shades control the best land
there.
The Lincoln man had his kodak
with him and has succeeded in taking
some excellent views of the reserva-
ton and the aborigines who first in.

PLoWs OVER BRYAN GRAVE.
Ohio Farmer is Sued For Tearing Up
Deserted Cemetery.

Youngstown, o., Sept. 24.-George
W. Ryder, a farmer of Bears Den, near
here, has been sued in court here for
blowing over the graves of the parents
of William Jennings Bryan and others
in deserted cemetery. The plaintiff
in the suit is Mary Heron.
Ryder is also charged with using the
headstones for walks about his farm
yard. During the 1896 campaign and
later on another speaking trip through
Ohio, Mr., Bryan stopped at Bears Den
and endeavored to locate the graves
of his parents. He said he was posi-.
tive they were buried at that place,
though he was unable to identify the
exact graves. He intended to remove
the bodies at some future time.
The cemetery was abandoned some
years ago and finally was disposed of
at private sale, with the understand
ing, Mary Heron says, that the land
was to be left sacred to the dead.
Ryder later got the land and now
proposes to make it raise wheat.

TRACK WAS OUT EIGHT DAYS
The Work Of Rebuilding the Washed

ternoon, and Trains are Now Started
from Mondays Dallyl

Train traffic on the Omaha road be
tween Norfolk and Sioux City was re
sumed this morning, eight days after
the washouts which caused traffic &c
be abandoned The first train to GOV
or the entire distance after the track
had been rebuilt was the one which
left Norfolk at $50 O'Clock this morn
ing. The train left on time but 1t was
not thought possible that II could
maintain schedule speed over the re
built tracks.
The work of rebuilding the track
between Wayne and Wakefield was
finished last evening
The company had advertised for 1OC
worImen in Norfolk late last week
but the track was finished before they
were found. The advertisement was
placed In window and was, of course
seen by few available men.
The service was resumed a few
possible because it was found that
there were no bridges to replace as
had been believed, and the stretch be
tween Wakefield and Wayne was not
so seriously damaged as was at first
reported. The washouts on the main
line near Fender have also been mend
ed.

RENT PAYS FOR LAND.
Fertile Sections of the Southwest,
Where Land Sells for SIS and
Rents for SIS Per Acre.


One of the remarkable things about
eastern Arkansas and northern Louis.
lana is the fact that cleared land rents
for SIS per acre cash. and can be bought
for $3.50 to $15 per acre. It costs
from Sc to $40 an acre to clear it.
Other improvements necessary are
slight and inexpensive.
The soil is rich alluvial, or made. It
produces a bale of cotton per acre,
worth s45 to $50. This accounts for
its high rental value. Other crops,
such as corn, small grains, grasses,
vegetables and fruits thrive as we'll.
Alfalfa yields 4 to 6 cuttings, a ton
to cutting, and brings $40 to SIG per
ton.
In other sections of these states.
and in Texas as well, the rolling or
hill-land is especially adapted to stock
raising and fruit farming. Land is
very cheap, SIS to $40 per acre; i'm
proved farms $40 SIS to s25 per acre.
The new White river country offers
many opportunities for settlers. High,
rolling. fine water - it is naturally
adapted to stock and fruit raising.
Can be bought as low as SO per acre.
