Obituary..

Ards May, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. T. H. Ramshaw, was born near
Ashland, Nebraska, Dec. 6, 1905,
and died at Lancaster, Wisconsin,
March %, 1914.
She came to Lancaster with her
her father and step-mother in 1913,
her own mother having died in
Nebraska, while Ards was still a
baby.
Ards was member of the
Methodist Sunday School and Rev.
Beavin had charge of the funeral
service, which was held at the
Methodist church on March 25th,
with interment at Hillside cemetery.
She was a sweet and affectionate
child, beloved by all who knew her
and will be greatly missed in her
home and at school where she was a
great favorite among her school mates.
She leaves to mourn her loss the
father, step-mother, two brothers,
Elmer and Frank, also one half-sister,
Vera Isabelle.
The loss to the family is indeed
sad. But impressive and comforting
were the words spoken by the
minister. "Weep not, she is not
dead, but sleepeth. If we could
only believe that death is but the
opening of door into a larger life.
Doubt not fathers love or forget
the words of Him who said ''For of
such is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Not too young to love him-little hearts
beat true.
Not too young to serve him-as the dew
Not too young to praise him-singing as we
Not too young to answer-when he calls US
home.
E. G. K.
The parents and relatives wish to
express their sincere and heartfelt
thanks to all for the expressions of
kindness and sympathy shown in their
bereavement and also for the beauti-
full flowers.

Protection Against Lightning.

Coral necklaces have often been
worn for warding off lightning; also an
eagles plume, as that bird is supposed
to be quite invulnerable to lightning
from it's connection with Jupiter. The
Romans were also much addicted to
wearing bay leaves as preservative
The laurel, the holly and the fig trees
are supposed to be quite free from
evil effects of lightning. The elder
Pliny said: Lightning never strikes
the laurel"

ton, however, Prof. Hoffman,,
former bacteriologist of the above
station says:
'The reasons for the better keep
ing qualities of silage when in con-
tact with a wooden surface, in COM
parison of that of cement, is due to
the fact that in the wooden silo there
are no neutralizing agencies, while in
the cement silo the acids present in
the silage next to the wall are
partially neutralized. The neutraliza-
tion of these acids allow certain so
called anerobic bacteria to develop.
The development of these undesirable
bacteria is responsible for the spoiled
appearance, taste and odor of the
same.
With reference to the freezing of
silage in a cement silo in comparison
to that built of weed. Cement is
nineteen times a better conductor OF
heat and cold than wood. Form your
own conclusions with reference to the
freezing.

A GREAT VARIETY OF BULLETS

The various bullets used by armies
of civilized nations admit of being
grouped in three classes. One of these
classes of projectiles is called the re-
duced caliber, jacketed bullet The
second class includes the leaden balls
in shrapnel and the blunt -nosed bullet
formerly in use in the British army and
subsequently used by the Servians. To
the third class belong the expanding
bullets, the soft-nosed bullet and the
dumdum bullet. Some authorities
speak of the first class as the pointed
bullet. 1t has less stopping power than
the other two. The greater part of the
nations Of the world use the ogival
bullet, pointed bullet whose tip forms
an obtuse angle like an arch.
The two bullets now in use, the ogi-
val and the blunt nose, have a rotary
and wabbling motion. On impact
they produce a wound like that made
by the blow of a hammer This effect
seems to be observed at all ranges, but
particularly at 1000 yards Here the
gyrOscopic steadiness due to rotation
is lost: the bullet may even turn on it's
axis and produce explosive effects.
Lateral impact seems the only explain
alton of these explosive effects
The unstable Japanese bullet, un-
stable because it is the lighteSt and
smallest in use, makes at 500 to 1000
yards perforations which are large
with explosive exits, and in the soft
viscera n wide tract showing a great
deal of liberation. These effects are
probably the result of the bullets
course, which is tangent to the curve
of the trajectory. Before it takes a
curve at very short ranges, it has eff
fects less severs, but here its stopping
power is less. In this respect it is
much inferior to the blunt nosed bull
let. The action of both these types of
modern bullets on the human body
Arizona republican. [volume] (Phoenix, Ariz.) 1890-1930, 1914-11-01

would at first sight seem to be the
same, but careful inspection of wounds
during the Balkan war shows that
wounds caused by the sharp nosed
bullet were on the whole more favor
able for speedy healing than those
caused by the blunt-nosed Servian bull
let.
There is, however, a marked defect
of the pointed bullet The result of
shaving off the tip and shoulder to a
fine point is to throw the center of
gravity very far back: this peculiar
ity tends to make the bullet travel on
its transverse axis This effect in
creases wounding power by increasing
the area of the wound.
The dumdum bullet has a packet
and a core Of lead, but its special quail
ity is the projection of the lead beyond
the mantle. When it strikes an object
the soft lead spreads out in the shape
of a mushroom, hence the bullet
causes wounds that have great stop

Carl Hans Lody Takes Witness Stand
In Own Behalf
