THE OMAHA DAILY BER, TUESDAY, MARCH 23, 1838, OLD MAN BENDER AT LIBERTY The Assumed Muarderer of Watson B. Smith To Be Released To-day. NEBRASKA'S GREAT CONFESSOR. The Gillespie Property Appraisement ~Cloud On the Title—Andy Don- aldson’s Drunk—Other Men- tions From the Oapital. (FROM TRE BEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU.] The convict Picrson, whoso alleged confession concerning the Watson B, Smith murder created sach a sensation last summer, will' be relonsed from the penitentiary to-day, his term of impris- onment expiring at noon. Deputy United States Marshal Hastings is he watching the opening of the gates, and the moment Pierson gteps ontside he will be arrested for the murder of Smith and given an opportunity to show how much or how little he knows abont that terriblo crime. Warden Nobes, when questioned on the matter last night, said it was true that Pierson was to be set free to-day, and that he further understood that the United States officials wounld take him into custody but beyond that he was not at liberty to speak. Mr. Hast- ings could not be found, having placed himself securely beyond the reach of the news hunters until after his great errand is accomplished. THE GILLESPIE PROVERTY. The gentlemen appointed by the bo of pubfic lands and buildingsto appr the value of the Gillespie property on G and Eighth street, the title to which is now in the state, have made a report fix- \e price which they think it ought to at $17,000. This is about %2,000 more than the most sanguine beliovers i Lincon real estate have dared to esti- mate, and by many good judges is pro- nounced o ridiculously high valuation. This property, which is situated near the capitol building, came into possession of the state some years ago as nearly every Lincolnite knows, on_ foreclosure of morlgage gi by the owner, Mr. - pie, to secure the .rental of school nds 1n which he was operating.

Bain, who in 1873 con- veyed them to Will Eyster. In 1880 Eyster sold to Mary A. Horey. Three years later Jumes MeMurtry came in possession, and in 1884 the présent plain- tifl, Juha M.

No one possessing the most elementary knowledge of progress science has made within the last twenty years, in the mat ter of the functions of the brain, ean for a moment accord to phrenology ‘a stable position in the list of modern branches and modes of inquiry. It is, perchance, only breaking a bitterfly on' the wheel and slaying the slain to say so much. But the science of Gall, Spurzheim and George Combe still survives in”holes and corners among us in the shape of demon- stration® by peripatetic phrenologists of the “‘characters’’ of their clients.” Busts are still to be seen and bought in which the human head is mapped out into cea of “‘destructivencss” and “‘yener- ation,” “into areas of ‘“‘amativeness,” “form,” ‘“‘color,” “language,” and So forth. " There are many persons who still \ o that the facultiesof human nature re all pigeon-holed, as the phrenologist ches, on the contour of the brain. The reading of character and the con- stitution of mind would be an extraordin. arily easy matter were such things true. The brain, alas! is much too compiex an organto be so lightly dis]ms‘m‘[ of. It has taken the best work of a quarter of a century in modern phystology to open up the subject of brain functions, and it will occupy the energies of many years before Wi ble definitely to sum” up cle: and explicitly the exuact nature of many of tho brain’s ways and works. But what we do know of cerebral structu and action slays phrenology more com- pletely than it has eyer been di before. The work of Hitzig, Fritsch, Ferrer and otliers has taught us the new phrenology—that of experimental science. It has exploded the old_myths ulties, “bumps’’ and briin which so much talk was h century gone by.

Sutton Register. The recent leasing of school lands in Keith county serves to call to mind the controversy over this subject in the last campaign. The action of the board of public lands and buildings was very stoutly defended, and those who had condemned their loose way of doing busi- ness have been ever since very roundly denounced. It was claimed asa wicked and wanton attack for political purposes. But subsequent events have proved that the board was open to justly severe cen- sure. Had not the lense of these been prevented by the ention of outside parti the stato would have been . very heavy loser for a term of rs. And it is in just that condition now as regards other counties in which leases were nsum- mated. As to Keith county, with its 80,- 000 neres of school lands, the appraise- ment under which leases have been cently made, is on an o age about siy times as high as that under which the old deal was sought to have been played. In- stead of m:{ to soventy-five cents an acre the lands are now appr at $3 to £3.50 an acre.
