FIRST MOVES SHOW ITALY’S OBJECTIVE (Continued from Paxe 1.) mountain centers, the immediate ob- jective of the northeastern offensive will probably have been realized and further operations will wait on the military circumstances of the situa- tion. Italians Successful. The southeastern offensive is much more pretentious. It does not lead into Alpine mountains, but into a plain, broad enough for extensive operations. The objective of the southeastern advance is the occupa- tion of Trieste and the province of Istria. The two railways that lead from Italian territory to the Trieste line have been seized by the Italians a few miles inside the boundary line ot Austria. The Italians must retain posses- sion of these railways to continue their advance, and they have yet to cross several rivers before they can consider themselves on their way to Trieste. The first successes of the campaign have fallen to the Italians, but no conclusions of any value can be drawn from this fact. It is impossible to indicate what the probable effect of the present oc- cupation of Austrian territory will be. Its only present significance is that the Italian frontier forces were ready before the Austrians. A long valued at $2,000,000, being involved. The lands in question were those owned by the Indians through allot- ‘ments and held in trust for them by the government, but were sold by the Indians. The statutes provide that mixed-blood Indians may legally convey such property, but make it unlawful for -full-bloods to do so. In its effort to set aside the convey- ances which have been issued the government claims that they were made through false statements and that in some instances the purchasers knew them to be false, the land be- ing sold by Indians of full blood. This, the government claims, would make the titles void. Attorney George R. O'Reilly of St. Paul, referee appointed by the Unit- ed States district court, is hearing the testimony in the cases, and (. C. Daniels, special assistant United States attorney general, is appearing for the government. Attorney R. J. Powell of Minneapolis represents many of the defendants. Several cases charging criminal operations in the sale of the White Earth land have been tried in the Federal courts of Duluth and Fergus Falls. be taken at all points where there are Indians residing whose informa- tion will be valuable in ascertaining the truth of the situation. WINDS THAT WHISTLE. The Sounds Come Only When the Air Did you ever notice that although you may feel the force of the wind when you are out in it, you do not hear it whistle unless you are close to a building? This is because the sound is produced according to the same prin ciples as apply to the production of the tones of a pipe organ or any instru- ment on which the tones are produced by blowing. In order to make the whistling sounds we hear from the wind it is necessary for it to blow against some- I 3c thing. That is why we hear it when we are in the house or some other building. The whistling is caused by the wind blowing past the sharp edge of some obstacle in its path or finding its way through small openings offering some sharp edged resistance. If you blow through a long tube or pipe you will produce no sound, but if there is an opening with a sharp edge near the end where you blow the blow- ing will cause a distinct sound. It is on this principle that all small whistles, organ pipes and wind instruments of an orchestra are made. Another way in which the wind pro- duces sounds is by blowing against ob jects whith vibrate.
