Judge Smith McPherson of the United | Sthtes circuit court yesterday signed a de- eree order in the appointment of a special | commissioner to sell the city water plant of Oskalooss, Ta. The sale is ordered under proceedings for foreclosure of a mortgage given to secure an $80,000 bond issue of the | water company, which have been pending | In the Creston division of the southern dis~ teiot of Towa for several months. The suit Is sald to be part of a plan for the reorganization of the Oskaloosa com- pany. The claim to be satisfied by the sale amounts to $8L.35.43.

DICKOUT REMOVED TO JAIL “Early Bird” Bandit Will Soon Have Trial on Charge of Intended bery. Herbert Dickout, the rly morning bandit" who attempted to hold up the “K C." saloon on South Main street at an early hour on the morning of February 18 and was shot by C. A. Burright, the pro- prietor, has sufficlently recovered from h wound to be able to be removed yesterday trom Mercy hospital to a cell in the county jall. Ever since he was taken to the hos- pital, it was necessary to have a guard over Dickout day and night. This necessitated the employment of two special officers, one for day duty and the other to watch the wounded prisoner at night. As Dickout has nearly ‘recovered from his wound, City Physiclan Tubbs recommended that he be transferred to the county jail and the ex- pense of two special officers be discontin- ued. An Information charging Dickout with | assauilt with intent to commit robbery has been flled by Assistant County Attorney Ross in the court of Justice Cooper. As the district court grand jury will be con- vened Tuesday of next week, it is likely that a preliminary hearing In the justice court will be dispensed with and Dickout's case taken direct before that body. NO ACTION ON INDIAN CREEK Doubt Expressed i Necessary Mon s on Hand to Do Work. at its meeting yesterday afternoon in the | matter of the proposed dredging of Indian creek. It was stated that it would take nearly three weeks to get the dredging | machinery in shape to begin work, so the counellmen decided to think the matter ove: in the meantime. That the creek needs cleaning out is gen- erally conceded by the councilmen, but some are doubtful if the city has the neces- sary money at this time. “Now is the proper |time to get to work on the creek,” said Councitman McMillen, “so that it will be In shape to carry off the heavy rains which may be expected in late spring or early summer. The creek needs dredging badly |and, o tact, some dredging should be done every spring to keep the creek i proper shape.” The work of assessing up the sidewalks recently completed proved too strenuous a job for the councilmen and it was fin- ally left to a committee consigting of Councilman Olson, City Engineer Etnyre and City Clerk Casady to finish. This committee will complete the assessment rolls and report back to the council for its approval. The council adjourned to next Monday evening.

Those of us who are rortunate enough to possess normal eyes are apt to feel in- | stinctively that we see things as they are. This is a mistake. The appearance of the | | world at 1arge is merely the result of the | circumstance that the human eye perceives | only a comparatively small part of the | | total radiation which comes from the sun | or is given out by a lamp. To make this a little clearer, we may | | consider one of the oldest experiments n | |optics, the passage of a ray of light through | 2 prism. When a béam of suniight passes | | through a prism of glass such as is often found on old-fashioned chende I 'Ts, the rays | are spread out, forming a spectrum, which | as a rainbow-colored band upon | }!he wall The colo of the spectrum | merge into one another by insensible grada- uor though the older physicists were in | the habit of recognizing seven—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. These | colors which the eve perceives are by no| means the only ones present in the spec- | trum. If we perform the expérim noa dark room, and place a photographic plate | in such a position as to receiye the m‘mse‘ of the spectrum, we find that It extends to a considerable distance beyond the violet In other words; there is a region beyond the violet which the eye can see, but which the sensitive plate is able to plmlo-‘ graph. This region termed the ullrn-‘ violet, and the light from virtually all| sources contalns a greater or less amount | of this ultra-violet light. The only difference between this ultra- | violet light and ordinary visible light is in the ler.gth of the wave, which is, in fact, the only difference between the dif- ferent colors of the visible spectrum. If. stead of using a glass prism for forming tpectrum, we use one cut from a uartz crystal, we find that the ultra violet spec.rum is very much longer, which shows us that the shortest waves of light &re not transmittcd even by the clearest glass If our eyes were sensitive to this region of the spectrum, instead of to the other, pearance of things would appear | our windows would be as opaque as ts of iron, and polished silver would resemble thracite coal. In other words, ings appes as they do merely from the circumstance that, in the process of evolu- tion, our eyes have developed a sensibility 10 a certain region of the total spectrum of the light which comes to us from the sun we see the black she If we have used an ordinary photographic | » In our expermiment shall tind ved no impression from the d and yellow parts of the spectrum and very little from the green. The plate, there- fo suffers from the same defect as our €ye; it is sensitive only to a limited region Recently, however, means have been found of rendering plates sensitive to the entire visible spectrum, afd to a.certain extent to the fra-red, or the extension beyond the red analogous to the one beyond the violet With a photographic plate rendered sen- sitive to the entire spectrum we could ob- | tain an idea of how things would appesr | it our eyes were sensitive to regions other | than the one adopted by nature, by ex- cluding from the lens of the camera all rays other than the ones with which we | wish to operate. This is done to a limited extent every day by all photographers who employ color screens in their work, and it is well known that increased contrast can | often be obtained in this way. If, for example, we attempt to photograph white clouds against & blue sky without the use of such & screen, we got scarcely any trace of the clouds at all, whereas if we place & yellow glass in front of the lens, the clouds come out spow white on & very dark background. We can see this same effect by view- tng the clouds first through & plece of deep | biue glass, which is what the photopraphic we | which plate. i Last summer, at my labratory at Bast| Ol and then through the yellow | vou can't sleep about 1t Hampton, Long Island, 1 pushed this prin- | ciple to the extreme, and have obtained photographs both by the infrared and the | ultra-violet invisible rays. in the Century.
