TO HONOR DR.. JONES.
Calumet Commencement Speaker to
be Entertained at Duluth.

People of Welsh birth and descent
living in Dluth. Superior and neigh
boring towns will have their first
gathering next Thursday evening,
when they will hold a banquet at the
Sualding hotel with DIR. Jenkin Lloyd
Jones OF Chicago as the guest Of hon
or. DR.. Jones was the commencement
speaker at the recent Calumet high
school graduation.
Dr. Jones is a man of national pro-
minence and one of the best known
Welshmen in the United States. He
will deliver the commencement address
at the Superior normal school Thurs
day morning, and the Welsh people
of the Head of the Lakes are taking
advantage of the opportunity given to
entertain him.
There are hundreds of Welshmen in
that vicinity, but they have never had
distinctively Welsh gathering. In
terest is now being stirred up and the
gathering at the Spading Thursday
night is expected to be a large one
II is very likely that as a result of the
banquet a Cambrian society will be
organized and that Welsh gatherings
will be held regularly in the future.
The Welsh are proud of their his
tory and ancestry. They can trace
their race back to the time when the
Romans invaded Briton, though their
race that inhabited the Welsh noun
tains at that time has been merged
in the modern Welsh people. which is
made up of the original race and diff
ferent invaders. When the SaXons
invaded Briton many Of the Britons
| fled to Wales and took up their resi-
dence there free from Saxon domina-
ton. Later the Danes came and be-
came part of the people. Wales re-
tanned it's independence until 1894
when IL became a principality Of Eng
land and it has remained so since
| that time.

MILITARY PUNlSHMENTS.
Times When Rebellious Soldiers Gam
bled For Their Lives.


In times past the military code in
England was no less stern and uncom-
promising than the civil. Sentence of
death was readily decreed and as
promptly executed. Where offenses
multiplied and wholesale executions
would have weakened the army nu-
merlcally decimation-the slaughter OF
every tenth man-was the rule, or the
troops gambled for their lives by cast
ing dice upon Il drumhead or drawing
lots under the gallows tree.
Lesser penalties-not capital. but
physical, and causing pain with per.
manent egradation-were manning.
branding the cheek or forehead. Dor
ing the tongue or cutting the nose and
ears. These last named were retained
upon the military statute book until
the reign OF Queen Anne. The trap
pado" was Il fiendish device by which
a delinquent was hoisted on high by n
rope fastened to his arms and then
dropped down by a sudden jerk that
often dlslOcated his shoulders. Hang
ing by the thumbs. sometimes called
"picketing." was also practiced. while
the body was raised to such a height
that its whole weight rested on one
toe. and that again on sharp pointed
spike.

be mounted on a razor edge, with
weights fastened to the extremities.
Running the gantlet, or "gante'
lope." was as old as the Cromwellian
army. and it is thus described In an
army order about 1919: The culprits
(who had been guilty Of blasphemy as
well as deer stealing) were to be
stripped naked from the waist up
ward and a lane made by half the
lord generals regiment of foot and
half Colonel Pride's, with every man
cudgel in his hand. They were to
be run through in this posture so that
every soldier might have a stroke al
their naked backs. breasts or arms
wherever it might alight. "-Pearson's

No Color In the Dark.

In the dark there Is no such thing
as color. The reddest dress is just the
same color as pure white tablecloth
when both are placed in dark closet.
If you would understand this assume
the presence of light wave motion In
the ether. The color Of light depends
upon the length of these waves. The
light waves producing the colors In
the blue end of the spectrum are very
short compared with those that pro-
duce the cOlors near the red end. The
light source that we know as red gives
off only waves of a length TO produce
that particular color. A body appears
red because it's surface absorbs all the
other waves and reflects the red waves
back into the eye. If an attempt Is
made to light blue body with red
light IL will fail. because the blue body
is capable of rejecting only the short
waves producing the blue. and since
the red source produces none OF these
there will be no reflection and the body
will appear black. A thing looks black
when II is capable of absorbing all the
colors at once-St. Louis Republic.

OF the bill for the popular election OF
senators and the campaign publicity
