Attempt To Rob ChInaman.

North Main street was thrown into a fevor of excitement Sunday night b. an attempted robbery of Chew, in his restaurant adjoining the Arizona Club Saloon. It seems that two MeXicans had secretcd themselves unobserved in the restaurant cellar, and about 9:30 when the owner closed the door and was preparing to retire, he was con- fronted ny the two robbers, who de- manded his money. Not coming through at once, one of the thugs struck Chew in the mouth with q re- volver and removed two of his teeth. Chew then yelled loudly for help, and attracted one of his countrymen, who not being able to ge. in, fired off his gun several times, which soon brought assistance and also scared away the robbers. One of the men was captured by Mr. A. Levinson in the rear of the Club Saloon ard turned over to Officers Martinez and Neahr, who placed him in jail Hes gave his name as Rafael Campos. The other fellow got away, but=is known and will probably be cap tured.
 Campos' preliminary examination will be held Saturday.

U1vLTED SlATES IRRIGATION;
 EXPERTS IN PERU

This governments active in terest in reClaiming arid land in the west by irrigation Is not a solitary or exceptional move ment in the world of today. Sim liar work is going on in many countries. Irrigation is as old as civilization, but inst now it is receiving more attention than ever before, and many gigantic problems are being worked out by the foremost engineers.
 Peru is one of the latest to turn it's attention to developing waste land by bringing water upon it from rivers which have always gone idly to the sea. l. ir true that irrigation iu Peru has been carried on since before the days Of Atahualpa. four hundred years ago. but not on a scale to be compared with what is now contemplated.
 A report to this government by Mr. Charles M. Pepper spe- cial at Lima. says that experts from the United States Geolog- ical Survey and from the Recla- nation Service have been in Perusfor some time, employed by that government to investi- gate the possibilities of irriga- ton. The reclamation of ,, 800, ] GOO acres between the mountains and the sea has been pronounced feasible. The rivers are not large, and the projects in Peru would not compare for size with some of the great irrigation schemes i'll the United States. But the marvellous fertility of Ethe land in the South American republic, and it's fine climate, as sures success in the highest de, gree.
 The arid lands in the United States with five or six inches of rain a year might be considered we'll watered if compared with some of Peru's dry wastes which are to be reclaimed. The show CTS that visit them are few and far betWeen-once in from ten to fourteen years. But when water is put on such land it's fertility is phenomenal. The soil has lain inert for centuries, without any run of to leach out the fertility stored from time lmmemCria!. This has been found true in our own west. The driest region often has the strongest soil once it is brought under irrigation and it's salts dissolved and made available for plants.
 Peru's rivers which are to be utilized flow down from snowy mountains and across the arid country just as many of the riv- CTS of our own arid regions do. To that extent the western part of the United states and the western portion of Peru haze many features in common, and the experts wno have gone down there from this country can make good use of the experience and technical knowledge gained at home.

Jonathan Chapman Was a Pioneer Orchardist and Loved to Do Good

r CHAPMAN, better known as
Johnny Appleseed. was born in Boston.
Mass. in 1775. and those genealogical socie-
- ties which do honor to his memory have
agreed on January is as the day OF his birth. al
though the records do not establish the fact with
certainty. Swedenborgian missionary. hermit and
lover OF his fellow man. Johnny Appleseed's life
was one of usefulness.
The first trace found of him in history records
him as being in the territory OF Ohio in 1901 with
a h~orseload OF apple seed, which he planted on
and about the borders of Licking creek. the first
orchard thus originated by him being now within
the boundaries Of Licking county. For the next
five years Chapman drops entirely out of sight.
He is next heard Of in 1906. when he descended
the Ohio river with two canoes dashed together,
both canoes being loaded with apple seed from
Omaha daily bee., 1908-12-27

orally, even in the coolest weather, he went bare
footed, but would occasionally make himself a
pair Of sandals, deeming even moccasins too much
protection from the elements.
His dress was generally composed of ~cast-off
clothing which he had taken in payment for
young apple trees. but during the latter half of his
life he cam TO the conclusion that all clothing
beyond that demanded by the dictates of decency
was superfluous and wore only a coffee sack, with
holes cut in 1t for his arms and his head.
Among the Indian tribes he frequently met
with in his wanderingsC Chapman was treated with
the courtesy and consideration always shown by
the red men for those they deemed mentally af-
flicted or. as they phrased it, under the care of
the Great Spirit"
His diet was as meager as his clothing. He

the orchards Of western Pennsylvania. With
these two canoes thus burdened Chap
man passed down the Ohio river to the mouth of
the Muskingum. He passed up the Muskingum to
the mouth of White Woman creek, thence up the
Mohican into the Black Fork to the head of navi-
cation in the vicinity Of those counties which are
now called Ashland and Richmond.
1t appears that this canoe voyage was the only
one in which Chapman made use of this means of
travel, for all the rest of his trips were made on
foot. The seed he obtained for nothing from the
cider presses of the orchards of western Penn
sylvania and he carried it in leather bags over
the old Indian trail that led from Fort Duquesne
to Detroit.
In personal appearance Chapman was small
and wiry. with long, dark hair, a scanty beard
that was never shaved and keen. black eyes. Gen

In the distance the chimney stacks tell the story of

Morton-Gregson company's meat-packing estab-
lishment is one of the prominent institutions of the
city. 1t has a capacity of handling 1900 hogs per
day and its annual output is about 100000 head.
and they employ from 800 to 400 men. The Union
Stock yards is one of the busy points of the city.
The Great Western Cereal company also employs
about 200 men and manufacture a large variety of
cereals. When we add to these two large estab-
lishments the two large Touring mills, the Nebraska
City Vinegar Works and the Nebraska City Can
ming company, and many other smaller establish

featuring city.
otoe county has GIG square miles and a popu-
lation of more than $1,000. 1t is one of the rich
est agricultural sections of the state. as the as
sessed valuation of the land was the highest of any
county In the state. The entire assessed valuation
of the county is $40, 900, 900. OF the $4,000
farms in the state otoe county has $500, with an
average of 100 acres to a farm. The present season
the county produced 123. OOO acres of corn, which
averaged about forty bushels per acre. The farm
ers marketed last year 33, 900 head of hogs, while
the present season they harvested $1,000 acres of
wheat. The county originally was known as Pierce
county. It's present name was taken from an In
dian name s~igpifying Lovers OF Pleasure. The first
permanent settlement was about 1854. The county
has ten thrifty villages, among them Syracuse, with
a population of 1000. The last season has been
one of unusual prosperity and the farmers and bus
mess men go into another autumn with a feeling
of contentment and satisfaction.
