we'll known residents Of Sanborn,
Mimi, Thanksgiving Day, an an
nouncement was made of the mar
riage of their daughter, Miss Esther
C. Marie Dietz, and Raymond G.
Schwartz. a former St. Peter boy,

quietly married at Redwood Falls on
Thursday, November 20, and kept the
nuptial event a secret for week.
Friends and relatives here were
pleasantly surprised to hear OF the

young women Of that community and
has often visited here. She has been
employed, up until her marriage, in
her fathers store at Sanborn. The
groom is a son of Mrs. Bertha
Schwartz, formerly of this city, but
now of Sanborn Also He attended
the public schools and for a number
of years was employed at the North
western depot here as telegraph OPP
orator. Six years ago he was trans
ferred to Sanborn, where he has since
resided and where he holds similar

western railroad. He is an estimable
young man and has large circle of
! friends, who wish him and his bride
a happily married life.-St. Peter

Two Escape Death
in Buffalo Charge

The following item, reprinted from
the Minneapolis Journal of Monday,
is of interest to Redwood Falls resi-
dents since O. H. johnson is among
the hunters who are guests at the
Scotty Phillips ranch during this
famous buffalo hunt.
"Baldy" Mathieson, cowboy at the
Scotty Phillips ranch at Fort Pierre,
S. d., was saved from injury Monday
by the prompt action of "Elzie" Tibbs,
another cowboy, when the latter di-
vided herd of 500 charging buffalo
after Mathieson had been thrown
from his horse in front of the oncom-
ing herd
"Mathieson was riding in front of
the herd trying to turn it toward a
battery of motion picture cameras
when his horse slipped and threw
him.
"As he fell his foot caught in the
stirrup and he was dragged by his
horse. Tibbs, who was nearby, at
tempted to throw himself across the
neck of Mathieson's horse to save
the rider, but in the attempt, Tibbs
own saddle turned and he was thrown
heavily to the ground.
"He grabbed at Mathieson and man.
aged to free his foot from the stirrup
and both riders lay injured on the
ground as the buffalo herd passed or
either side"

Rosen, Emmetsburg, who has $500
claim against the car on a mortgage,
and ordering the car sold and the pro-

holds that Rosen had guilty knowledge
that the car was being used for trans

Wheat Jumps to
New High Prices

The Minneapolis wheat market
again Monday crashed through to new
high records.
A carload of cash wheat sold at
$1.91, seven cents over the Saturday
record price today. The shipment was
bingham, Mont, hard spring wheat
The price was the best on the market
since June, 1921. The lunge upward
at the So mark was made when both
futures in wheat had risen to new
high prices for the year.
May wheat reached $1.61A, or 15sc
in excess Of the previous high record
for the year of November IA. Deem
Der wheat went to $1.575s, eclipsing
the new high of $1.553s established
Saturday. May corn in Chicago went
to $1.26%, new high for the year.

Meanwhile at South St. Paul, great :
est receipts of hogs in the history OF
the market were recorded. There
were 47,OOO hogs unloaded, and in
the face of this recordbreaking sup
ply, demand held up and kept prices
firm. The average sale price was
$3.50 hundredweight.
Rive and flax came to within frac-
tional distance of equallng the hlgh
records for the year. All grains rose
an average of &c over Saturdays clos
ing prices. December rye reached
s1.27A and May rye $1.32. Deem
Der flax reached $3.50 and May $2.76.
Oats in the December future went to

Pictures BY Radio.

Transmission of photographs by
wire has been effected in this country
to an extent TO encourage the belief
that similar reproductions over long
distances would be possible by radio.
Now the latter has been accomplished.
In series of tests conducted between
London and New York illustrations
and text messages have been repro.
duced with varying degrees OF clear
ness, some Of them highly satisfactory
and others less so. The test has at
least proved the possibility Of this
form of communication, and further
advances are expected.
AS far as practical results are con-
cerned, there is little difference be-
tween wire and wireless transmission.
The only question as to these two
modes is as to speed and clearness. If
radio transmission is as distinct as
that by wire it may have an advan.
tage in point of rapidity. In the send.
ing OF messages without illustrations
the radio is the quicker. But In the
tranmission Of pictures clearness is

Bowie. is illustrated by taking blocks
of different metals having varying
specific gravities. all to have the
same dimensions. except that the per-
pendicuIars shall be in proportion to
the specific gravity. Float these
blocks In mercury, side by side, and
as they have the same size, except
height, they will displace the same
amount of mercury and all their bot
toms will be at the same level, but
the lighter blocks will protrude above
the heavier ones.
Now, in place of such blocks, take
a column of earth 100 miles square,
in which is a mountain; another on
which there is, a plain: another from
the bottom OF the sea, all extending
down to 50 or 70 miles, where they
rest upon the plane of the eartil's
nucleus. Each column will be the
same weight as all others. or else
the unbalanced equilibrium will be in
process of adjustment by the flowing
Of matter at the base of the heavier
column toward the lighter one. The
heavier will be sinking; the lighter

column of earth bearing a mountain
is less dense than a column under

where the density Is lighter-such as
the mountain column where the rocks
are less dense. This lighter column
1t pushes upward, and as this column
passes through strata cooler than that
at the base, 1t becomes cooled, and
undergoes chemical changes. In the
reverse, as the ocean column is born
downward by it's extra weight of
sediment, it becomes heated and is
chemically changed. So the flow so

Man has never penetrated far into
the earth, and all theory as to the
increasing heat, clear to the center
of the earth, is calculated merely
upon the fact that the temperature
rises as one descends a mine, say a
mile and a half. 1t Is calculated then
that that same ratio Of increasing
time 1t reached few thousand miles
down. But DR.. Bowie says there is
no proof that heat increases beyond
the depth where there is movement
and friction-ascertained to be about
20 miles.
This 70-mile limit to the solid
nucleus is found mainly by the meas
uring of the values of gravitation at
thousands OF points throughout the
world. At the recent meeting 1t was
arranged that American scientists
will study gravitation with the use
of delicate pendu1ums, in many coun-
tries of Europe and Asia-at the ex-
pense of the respective I-gosernments
since Americans are the best
equipped to do The work accurately.
