tai Of about $50, 900 a year, which has
been inadequate to pay the expenses.
The deficiency last year was met by
the board postponing all improve
ments, purchase of furniture, addition
al apparatus, and the like, and by
part of the faculty voluntarily forego-
ing their salaries for the last quarter
Of the year. relying on the approval
Of the pending bill or subsequent ap-
preparation by the legislature for their
payment. The salaries and inciden-
tai expenses for the present scolastic
year will amount to at least $50, 900,
to meet which there is an appropria-
tion of $475O0. interest on land fund,
estimated at $4,000, interest on Willard
fund, $4,000, or total Of $54,7O0.
At the close of the present scholas-
tic year the university WILL therefore,
be practically without funds and as
the law absolutely prohibits the re-
gents or faculty from pledging the
faith Of the state for the university,
in excess of the income for the cur
rent year, it is not apparent how it
will be able to open its doors next fall
If the pending appropriation is de-
feated.
We may add that the regents receive
no compensation whatever for their
services, but realizing, in the discharge
Of their duties in administration of the
university, they are but servants of
the people, they present the facts, for
the consideration and final determine
alton of the voters, without argument.

Nazareth, Pa, May 15.-"Let then

have seen second light"
In his more lucid moments Robert
Bamman. chief OF the Nazaretf
branch of devil chasers," whose orgy
of two days ended in the death Of g.
year-old Irene Smith, repeats this over
and over again. At other times he
rolls on the floor of his cell in North
ampton county Jail beating his head
against the bench.
Councilman Henry Smith, the mil
lionaire father of the dead child. hard
ly seems to realize what has happen
ed. All night he raved in his cell
mixing prayers, hymns and biblical
quotations in a weird tumble. This
morning when questioned by District
Attorney McKeen, he paused in his
monotonous rigamarole and, gazing
stolidly ahead of him, declared:
ut was Gods will. Bob knew all
about ii. Why should a poor sinner
like me question the ways of a God
Of wrath? Bob said there was a devil
devouring the soul of Rena. He kill
ed her at Gods command. But 1t will
be all right. Bob's going to be cru
Gifted, and then there will be a glo-
rlous ending to all our troubles"
Mrs. Smith has returned to a nor
NAL state of mind. To District At
torney McKeen she said:
whether 1t was in the name of re-
ligion or not Bob Bachman has mur-
dered my child. 1 never had any faith
in the teachings of the Devil Chasers.
Bob has been talking to Henry and me
for several weeks about joining, but |
always refused. l have gone to
church regularly at Seigfried, and the
Methodist teachings were always good
enough for me. But Henry became
impressed and insisted. and, finally,
to keep peace in the family, / agreed.
He was always good and kind to me
and Rena, and l thought it would do
no harm to give in to him.
There was only one thing that an
noyed me. Bob was constantly talk
ing about a blood sacrifice being
necessary to purify the converts that
had recently Joined the Devil Chas-
ers.' Henry laughed at my fears and
said that Bob's utterances were only
symbolic, and should be taken as
many things in the Bible are.
II know now what he meant. Our
little Rena has been the blood sacri-
flce.' If had only yielded to my first
impulse and left her at home with a
neighbor she would have been alive
today"

COOPERATIVE COLONY
IN WASHINGTON

A big cooperative colony is to be
founded to occupy and develop thor
oughly an S5O0-acre wheat farm near
Dayton and an adjoining 10000 acres
of stock range.
The colony is being formed by DR..
NJ Peitrzycki Of Dayton, one of the
wealthiest men of that section of the
country. The land, 5000 acres of
which is already under cultivation, has
yielded $4,000 bushels Of grain annu-
ally for several years. 1t Is ready for
the work of the colony as soon as suf-
ficient members can be had to make
the project successful.
DR.. Peritrzycki's scheme is entirly
unique in that nothing of political
or religious nature is required Of any
Of the members, all of whom will be
on an equal footing as to holdings and
as to power. The decisions of an cleo
tive board of directors will be binding
upon all alike, and the directors will
act as an arbitration board to settle all
differences that may arise.
At the end or each yea rulVldenus
will be paid to each member of the
colony on the wages he has earned
by working. The plan includes the
establishment of a public school on
practical lines, giving technical in
struction in all branches of trade or
labor employed by the colony.
DR.. Peitrzycki is now the sole owner
of the land which will be given to the
colony. It lies between Dayton and
Starbuck. The founder was born In
Galicia, one fthe Polish provinces
Of Austria, in April, 1884, and has
been living in Dayton for more than
20 years, practiclng medicine. He has
always been a student Of social and
political economy, and the founding
Of his colony Is the outcome Of his
studies.

NEW FEATURES FOR ROSE SHOW
Spectacular Scene of the Eruption Of
Mt. Xesuvius at Portland.

hN'uNluo 1T
A gigantic production of "Paines
eruption of Vesuvius" and Carnival
at Naples" has been contracted for as
a special entertainment for the thou
sands of visitors that will be enter
tanned in Portland during the rose
festival.
This enormous production is being
brought direct from Manhattan
Beach, New York and is without
doubt the largest theatrical produc-
tlon or spectacular attraction ever
brought across the continent to fill
one contract, But the new Portland
spirit has taken such a hold upon her
people that they are going to out-do
all previous attempts along this line
Of entertaining.
This production shows a most elab-
crate firework, spectacular and sum-
mer night fete, depicting the carnival
at Naples and eruption of Vesuvius on
the night of April and 4, 1904, and
destroyed the Funicular railroad,
Cooks hotel and the village of Bosco
Ire Case and number of other viii
lagos. No attraction could be Sc
cured that would lend 80 much to the
success Of the rose festival as Paine's
Vesuvius as the performances open
with carnival in progress on the
streets Of Naples.

Cannon to Shoot Airships.

It Is not generally known that SO long
ago as the year 1870 a special kind of
cannon was invented for firing at aeros-
tats. It's designer was a German named
Treskow. an army lieutenant by whom
it was offered to Gen. Won Moltke. The
latter accepted it and used 1t with such
good effect against the balloons sent up
from Paris that during one week alone In
November nine of them were brought to
earth. such of their occupants as survived
their all-too-rapid descent being made
prisoners, to be afterward sent to Ger
man fortresses for trial by court-martial
This particular balloon-disab bling cannon,
however. could only be loaded and fred
about once in three minutes, and at an
elevation not exceeding 55 degrees It
was, therefore, far inferior to the new
German gun which has just been de-
signed for use against modern airships,
and which Is capable OF discharging
an angle Of 20 degrees. Other nations.
too. and more especially France, have
been busy experimenting with similar
weapons, some OF which. exceedingly
light. are mounted. not on ordinary gun
carriages. but on powerful motor cars, in
order to be able the more easily to fol-
low I'D the swift and elusive "dirigibie.'
The patterns Of the new guns naturally
vary very considerably. and great secrecy
is being observed: but it is known that
shaped projectile. like the old case-shot.
but fitted with time fuse. The BURSTING
charge Is placed right in the center. in
stead Of being near the bottom, as IL il
in modern shrapnel; so that. when the
explosion taxes place In mid-air. the large
filed. are projected up and down and all
around.

BUFFALO BILL WITH HIS WILD WEST
WILL SOON BE in WASHINGTON

Chief among the features in a program
Of historic correctness and interest which
will be furnished by Buffalo Bills Wild
West will be a reproduction Of the battle
Of Summit Springs. The original conflict
took place on July II, 1869. near the bor-
der line between Nebraska and Colorado.
Gen. e. A. Carr commanded a detach-
ment of United States cavalry against a
renegade band of Sioux. cheyenne and
Arapahoe Indians. known as Dog Sol
diers." Col. William F. Cody c'Buffalo
Bill') was the chief Of scouts with the
government expedition. and it was due to
his trailing that the cavalry came up
with the Indians and surprised them
while in camp at Summit Springs.
In the battle which ensued Buffalo dill
shot and killed Tall Bull, the leader of
the Dog Soldiers" The victory which
the government forces gained over the
Indians had much to do with deciding the
