A newly discovered Rembrandt
painting was exhibited for a number
of newspaper representatives a few
days ago in Copenhagen by Karl Mad
sen. There is every evidence that the
painting is one Of the famous Rem
brandt products dating back to 1869.
The painting had originally been kept
in the so called "Gamle Kunstkam-
mer'' in Copenhagen palace, but dur
ing the end of the Eighteenth century
it was removed to Fredensborg palace,
where no one seemed to pay any at
tention to IT and where it was hung
in one of the rooms occupied by one
of the portiers of the palace. The
valuable painting has now been placed
in the Holland department of the Ma
tional Museum of Arts and is at pres
ent the object of much attention from
art lovers, sightseers and tourists.
The painting is valued at 100000
crowns, but inasmuch as 1t is the prop,
erty Of the Danish government 1t is
not likely that it will be disposed of
to any private party.
Norman Hansen, formerly a physi.
clan in Chicago, and now a well
known Greenland explorer, has re.
turned from years stay at Juliane
Haat, West Greenland. He states that
while making long journey through
the interior he found ruins of the
houses of the old Norwegian colonists.
Greenland explorers have for years
looked in vain for these ruins and the
discovery is considered to be very i'm
portant. The Royal Geographical So
ciety will publish detailed account
of the discovery.
A sensation has been caused In
army circles by an order from the
chief of the military department that
all Adventist soldiers will be relieved
from military duties on Saturdays.
Such soldiers do not even have to re-
port for duty. 1t is feared by many
that a great many soldiers will now
turn Adventists in order to avail them
selves Of an extra holiday.

TOWNSHIP BOARD PLANS TO PIPE
WASTE WATER NEAR GAS
WORKS AWAY FROM
RESIDENCES.

A special meeting of the township
board was held this morning, when the
question of dealing with waste water
i'm a ditch outside the Calumet gas
company's plant was taken up. David
Armit, chairman of the road committee,
and Highway Commissioner Mugford
were named as a committee to ascer-
tain the cost of piping 500 feet and
filling in the ditch. The committee
will report at the next meeting of the
board. Engineer Ed. Grierson will as
sist the committee.
The ditch in question has caused
trouble i'm the matter of accumulation
of water from the swamp ground In
that vicinity. 1t is nineteen hundred
feet long, eight feen in width and four
feet high. 1t is figured that i'm order
to pipe this ditch and iii the same in,
considerable expense will be involved.
However the members of the board
are in favor of piping at least 500 feet
this summer. and probably 500 feet
next summer. This will carry the wa
ter to some distance beyond the resi-
Dental district, and should answer all
purposes from a sanitary point of
view.

What democratic representation in

In the various legislatures has done is
shown by the long list Of progressive
laws which such legislatures have
the last two democratic iesislstures. ana nd
the leadership OF Nebraska democracy,
Nebraska has the foremost place among
the states OF the nation as a leader in
matters OF progressive legislation, which
tend to promote tn chest interests of the
commonwealth and keep the powers OF
government closest to the people. We
submit that a congress- or legislature
composed exclusively of members OF one
party would not be for the best inter-
eBts OF the public
We further declare that II Is as Inn

cal thought represented In the supreme

Its purpose Is to guard the interests of

the rest of the electorate OF the state

We deplore the veto OF the non-part-

election to help us acquire representa-
ton for our party on the supreme bench
and on a board of regents of the state

the interest of the democratic party.
