One of TWain's Heroes.

One of Mark Twain's famous bad

those who wore we'll acquainted with
the character. In the book "Tom Saw

war Activities Of Geological Survey.

War Activities OF Geological Survey.
The special training Of the geological
survey engineers made them available
for effective war service both overseas
and in this country. The large amount
of technical data collected through the
years by the geological survey was
found to possess a value not antici-
pated, and the official machinery or
ganized for scientific investigation OF
the subjects within the geological sur
vey's province was also utilized in the
more intensive inquiries required as
each industrial or military need arose.
The increase in the geological surveys
representation in the army from 6l
men at the beginning Of the fiscal year
1918 to 800 at the end of the year (462
on November II, 191S) necessarily in
volved a serious reduction in the man
power available for other contributions
to war work. Yet it is believed that
both in variety Of scope and in vol
ume of results the war activities un-
der direction of the geological survey,
department of the interior. were more
important during the closing months
Of the year than ever before.

INDULGE IN JOYOUS "MlxUP"
People of Villages of the Ukraine Hold
Peculiar Celebration on Rtsur-
rection Sunday.

The Ukraine is the richest snd
most thickiy settled district of Rus
sia. Travellers will remember it as
a plain of never-ending wheat fields,
land of silent, friendly peasants, or
colOrful dress and curious folk GUS
toms. Large cities are few. bat there
Is village every few miles.
The people Of the villages. and even
the more enlightened folk of the cit
les, have retained some traditional on
servances scculiar to the land. one
of the most curious of these was a part
OF the celebration Of the Greek church
holiday, Resurrection Sunday. lhlS
date was up to few years ago the
OCCASION for municipal free-for-ali
fight in many Ckrainian cities.
The people of the city were divided
into two camps. Sometimes the city
was divided into halves: more often
the division was made into the true
urban dwellers on the one hand. ana
the suburbanites on the other. All the
able-bodied men, and still more en-
Enthusiastically, all the Small boys,
poured into the streets for battle. NO
weapons Of any kind were used; even
sticks and clubs were barred. Fists
were employed freely. however, ana
any man could get literally all the
fght he wanted.
The combat sometimes ragged all
day. Any time some combatant had
enough" he needed only to Indicate
as much. and the crowd was bound to
part and let him; through. He was
then barred from further participation
The battle sometimes ended with one
marty or the other driven from the
field, but usually the decision was
draw and nothing but a collection OF
bruised knuckles and sore heads re-
manned to Show for 1t.
: The origin of this custom has gwen
rise to considerable speculation. 1t IS
probably due to the fact that the Tx
rainians were for centuries fighting
people. In the middle ages they were
continually involved in petty warfare
with the Cossacks and the Tartars.
When the balance of power" peace
descended upon Europe. they seem to
have turned instinctively to warlike
sports to keep alive the fighting spirit
among the people. In view of recent
developments. the recourse would hard
ly appear to have been success

BUILT FOR PIETY OR LUCK
Two Reasons Assigned for the Con.
struction of Pagodas,in Countries
of the Far East

The word paSoda is Portuguese
corruption of the Persian but
kahdah." meaning but an idol, and
"kadah," temple" In the far East.
as in India, China and Burma, they
are regarded as sacred towers, usually
more or less pyramidal in outline.
richly carved, painted or otherwise
adorned, and of several stories, and
are sometimes connected with tem
ple. Such towers were originally
erected over relics Of Buddha. the
bones of a saint. ETC., but are now
built chiefly as a work of merit on the
part Of some pious person, or for the
purpose Of improving the luck OF the
neighborhood. In China pagodas are
from 8 TO IS stories high ta''
wars an odd number). Their Dra~
vidian shape indicates that they orig
mated with the earliest races OF In
dia, who inhabited the country pren'
Gus to the advent of the Aryans. The
date Of the great pagodas at Tajore IS
not certainly known. but it. with much
probability, referred to the beginning
of the fourteenth century. The So
called Thousand Pagodas" Of Bran
banan in Java are obviously modeiea

buted a cer.aln amount yearly. The con-

fund reached such & proportion the con
tribution was discontinued
1t would seem that if Section 4 Of the
Organic Act is interpreted correctly it
covers the lmmlgrati)n Tax in the Urea

brought to the attention Of the authori-

created for a special purpose, they would
be willing to let it remain for the purpose

Chairman. With regard to remarks made
bv the Government Secretary, | wish to
saw that [ have always understood Sec
ton 5 of the Organic Act of the Virgin
Islands where it says: The duties and
and taxes collected in pursuance OF this
Act' to mean the s. export tax on
sugar and not the taxes existing IN the
community before the execution OF the
Organic Act. 1t Gems to me quite plain
that it does not cover the immigration
Tax.
The Government Secretary remarked:
Mr.. Chairman. As a legal point every
BODY has the right TO an opinion, but as
previously remarked, decision can be
had on it within a reasonable time, and
in the proper way. Had it not been for
the Organic Act there would be no rea-
son FOR putting the ak on the revenue
side of the Budget.

Suffrage Women Have
Decided to Have New
Photographs Taken

Three prominent Omaha women
filed into a Photographic studio the
other day to have new pictures taxi
en-. They were driven to the deed
by the caustic comments of their
friends-yea. even relatives.
Then they called on local news
papers and entered formal request
to have new cuts made.
The women are Mrs. Draper
Smith, Mrs. Fl. c. Sumney and Mrs
James Richardson.
IF it was personal we wouldn't
care, but when Mrs. Smiths daugh-
ter-in-law remarked on glancing at
our photographs in the newspaper
that the sight of us was enough to
discourage any woman from suf-
frage work, we decided we would
have some new pictures" said Mrs.
Sumney.
