George F. REIN Treated to Slower

The campaign which the police have In
augurated against automobile drivers who
exceed the speed INIT is still being car
ried on and the plain clothes officers on
motorcycles who are detailed to carry 1t
out are stil finding something to do.
Shortly after 6 o'clock last evening
Emergency Officers Morgan and Reigel-
man noticed George F.. REIN. who drives
for the Kimball Automobile company, go
ing much too fast at Seventeenth and Cap
itol avenue. They gave chase and over
hauled him on Sixteenth street near Grace.
He was placed under arrest and told TO
follow the officers with his machine to
the station. Instead OF doing so. however,
he opened up his engines and attempted to
get away. The mile-a-mlnute motorcycles
we're too much for him, however, and he
was again overtaken on Sherman avenue
near Madison, and in order that he might
not attempt any more scorching he was
given a ride to the police station in the
patrol wagon.
He was released on bond and his case
will be heard Monday morning.

HEROIC STATUE OF INGERSoLL

Tribute to the memory to Colonel Robert
G. Ingersoll is to be paid by the erection
In Peoria, ILL.,, OF a statue OF him in bronze
for which the large model has just been
completed by Mr.. Frederick e. Triebel. a
sculptor of New York.
Colonel Ingersoll lived for many years
in PeUpria and It was while he was praes
ticing as a lawyer there that attention was
first drawn to his oratorical powers. On ac-
count OF his genial nature he was exceed
ingiy popular in the place, where he was
long a resident. The project to erect a
memorial TO him was preached as far back
as 1899, shortly after his sudden death al

RESEARCH IN GERMANY.
Government Methods of Promotion
and

In Germany the universities are under
the control of the government. Therefore,
the German government, searching among
the Students of the univerities, and finding
the keenest and brightest intellects dis
posed to the study of medicine, both as a
science and as a profession, is able to take
these young men and establish them in
professorships, where there is no anxiety
as to the means of livelihood.
An anecdote, related by a correspondent
of the Philadelphia Ledger, will, perhaps,
best illustrate this feature of the relation
Of the German government to the univeri-
ties. When the organization of the Johns
Hopkins university was being perfected. it
was the special desire to secure as pro-.
fessors some OF the foremost Psychologists
of Germany. Representatives OF the Johns
Hopkins university went to Germany with
what were presumed to be tempting and
irresistible invitations. They offered as
much as $4,000 a year salary, and in one
instance $4,000 a year, to Psychologists who
are of distinction In Germany, hoping
thereby to bring them to the Johns Hop
kins university. But 1t was soon discovered
that no money offer could tempt them.
They received directly from the govern
ment salaries sufficient for comfortable
support. with assurance that, when they
were compelled to lay down active work a
pension for life would be paid them. They
were therefore free from any distraction or
anxiety respecting income. being for that
reason able to devote their entire working
time to their professional opportunities and
duties.
One OF these professors, having declined
an offer of $4,000 salary. said that in the
United States was a young man OF high
talent and great requirement who was
abundsntly qualified for a professorship of
that kind. They knew him because he had
studied In Germany. He was Dr.. william
II. Welch. And upon that recommendation
this foremost OF American biologists was
called to his authoritative association with
Johns Hopkins university.

Mrs. Roachman OF Denver, whose son is
attending the school. paid him a brief visit
recently.
A large number OF the cadets have had
the duck fever and while there were
many hunters bold, there was little game
to show for their prowess.
The regular monthly examinations were
held Wednesday and Thursday, April Z and
s. The school had a holiday on Good Fri
day.
The track Is now in good condition and
the real hard work for the team has begun
in earnest. The try-out for places on the
team will take place shortly and It will
be a real contest between some of the old
liners and some very good new material
which has developed among some of the
late arrivals. II is hoped there will be a
meet every week in May. There will be
the Five meet, held in Kearney. one held
with Hastings and K~earney. and the meet
at Lincoln. This will give the team about
all they can do.
Several of the cadets who reside near
Kearney went TO their homes to spend
Easter with the home folks, but the cadets
who live some distance we're not so fortu-
nate as the school had no regular vacation
and the time was not available to make
the trip.
Right Rev. Bishop Graves was here for
confirmation OF the sth, and o class OF sew
enteen received the apostolic rite of the
laying on OF hands. The bishop preached a
sermon on the results of cowardice such
as Plate displayed. and he received marked
attention. One feature of the service was
the singing by the boys. there being a
regular choir Of sixteen voices, all boys,
and the entire school Joined with them.
The drill on Saturday mornings is as
Stunning a great deal of importance as the
end Of the term draws near, for It is on
these morning drills that a place In the
final drill down on Commencement day
for the medal rests. Cadets having a GER
tain number OF points are allowed to take
part In the final drill.
Company B has had its flag up for the
last two weeks. this making honors quite
even for all three companies.
The first track meet will be held Will
the kearney High school April 80 at the
State Normal grounds at Kearney.
Founders day, on the 18th, was duly OBJ
served In the customary manner with
dress parade In the morning and the regu-
lar dance in the evening. The drill was
held on the campus just west OF Cochran
hall and was one of the best ever wit
messed at the school. The band made a
creditable showing and the companies we're
handled by their respective officers in u
manner which showed careful training.
From now on, weather permitting, there
will be frequent dress parades on Sunday
evenings Immediately following supper.
The dance in the evening was well attended
and a large number of Kearney people
were present. as well as several out-of-
town people. among whom were DR.. and
Mrs. Hatfield Of Grand Island, Miss Ruth
Boyden Of Grand Island and Miss Van
