 The object of this investigation be- fn9 to establish the presence or ab- nence of cocaine, and possibly of other 4nturious alkaloids, l operated on @rSntities of three to five times the ernount contained in a bottle of the rnrbonated beverage The extractlons ~ the syrup were repeated until the .Ikalotds were entirely removed, and 1ifserent immiscible solvents were us- @6 on different portions.

Since this concentrated ..,ol1uct which would contain all of tha cocaine, failed to respond to the Sasfs for cocaine. 1t is clear that the eikalotd is absent. or, If present at sIi then in quantities too minute to allow of detection.

Damage by Green Bug.

Forty grain men from Chicago,
Milwaukee and Omaha visited
the wheat fields in Southern Ne
braska and Northern Kansas last
week, returning to Omaha Mon
day of this week and their in
vestig ations do not inspire hope
for even half an average ctop in
Kansas on account of the ravages
made by the green bug.
w. c. Sunderland, of the
Sunderland Grain company, a
ember Of the inspecting party,
interviewed by an Omaha Bee
reporter, said:
eve stopped as often as pos
sible for examination of the fields
in Southern Nebraska Saturday
afternoon and foun1 green bugs
in every field, but they had not
begun to damage the crop to any
extent. We went through Sum-
ner, Reno, Kiowa, Sedgwick,
Pratt, Ford, MCPHERSON, Re-
public, Washington, Clyde and
Cloupe counties of Kansas Sun
day and found that the damage
by drout'i and green bugs was ex-
tensive. The damage was par
ticularly noticeable in Sumner,
Sedgwick and Reno counties, but
the Nebraska crops are practi-
cally uninjured as yet, although
the result of the appearance of
the green bugs in tue Nebraska
fields is still problematical. If
the bugs attack the wheat in the
Nebraska fields as they did those
in Kansas, the outlook for the
crops in this state is very gloomy.
1.-The crop of oats in Kansas is
practically ruined and the corn
is in bad shape as that planted
has not yet made its appearance
abo We ground"
Prospects for good crop in
Nebraska appear to be good at
the present time, according to
the opinion of majority of the
grain men who went on the ex-
cursion. Green bugs were said
to be in every wheat field in
southern Nebraska, having come
from the Kansas fields, but had
inflicted no damage.

The conclusions reached by
some people make the rest of man
kind speculate over the wonder
full construction of the human
brain. Maj. Woodruff, surgeon
in the U. S. army, attributes
tuberculosis, insanity and suicide
to too much sunlight. He says
this Goods sunshine" business
is all tommyrot and will eventual
ly depopulate the world His
theory is that originally all men
were black. Some of the more
adventurous got out into the sun
shine, were bleacbed white,
begun to have coug hing spells,
became insane and suicided. 1t
sounds real pleasant-when you

The increased sentiment fol

seeing saloon men. To per.
petuate their business they are,
in many of the larger cities, com
ing to the support of the officials
in the suppression of the dives,
the dance hall annexes and the
wine rooms. They fgnre that
if the saloon business is run in a
clean, business-like manner,
there will be less criticism and
opposition. This element fol
alleged decent saloons in Chicago
went so far as to ask some of the

question as to the power of judges
to exclude people from court
rooms during the trial of any
case as long as there is no over
crowding and the spectators are
orderly. 1t is frequent custom

without right. Every person is
