LINCOL) March 18.—(Special.)—Gov- | ernor Shallenberger raturned last night from Fort Worth, Tex., where he attended a meting of the directors of the Natlonal | Live Btock assoclation, the Texas Btate| Cattlemen's association and the Texas Press assoclation meesting At the last-| named meeting an old-time barbecue was | pulled off and the waiters were million- | aires, donning their aprons and working llke good fellows to show their respect for the press. At each of the meetings the movernor delivered an address and he was elected an honorary member of the Texas Cattle. men's assoclation, an honor enjoyed only by three men, one of them being ex-Pres!- | dent Roosevelt. While the governor of Texas was not present at the meetings, faid the governor, there were four candl- dates for governor on the platform at one time. | “One of the big issues in Texas during this campaign," said the governor, “is the | selection of a warden of the state peni-| tentlary and the disposition of the con- | viets, The prisoners are hired out to do| various kinds of work, and just Ihu‘ desire this conviet labor make the peni- tentiary quite an fssue in the campaign has 3,700 convicts.” By a citizen of Oklahoma who attended the meeting the governor was told there | were 1500 convicts in the penitentiary of that state, “This large penitentiary population,” #ald the governor, “should make a Ne- braskan feel proud of his state, as we| have not more than 40 convicts on an| average.” The governor enjoved the meetings, but | #ald the stockmen of Texas had been up| against It this year for feed.

There | were many who desired that the convention | committee continue as a permanent organ- | fzation, but President E. R. Sizer objected to this and argued that it was now up to the various church committees to look after the work in their own way. Ths convention banquet was the greatest event of the kind ever held in the City Aud- itorlum, in that there were more people seated at the taMes than the capacity of the house. There were 300 more diners than ever before attended a banquet In the hall, the next largest being the banquet of the State Teachers' assoclation, when there were 1,42 seated. Attending the missionary banquet were 1,386. This large crowd was eeated In twenty-two minutes, and every afldress was pulled off in schedule time and the convention adjourned at the hour set, the first time, some of the speakers sald, | such 3 thing ever happened at this kind of & meeting. As an evidence of the business way in which President Sizer and his aides dld their work is shown In the fact that evary | church recelved its check for dinners served the morning following the banquet. Mr. Sizer has on hand a bunch of letters ex- pressing grateful surprise at this prompt- ness. The suppers were served by the vari- ous church organizations and the Women's Rellef Corps, There were 140 young men walters, one for each ten guests. In ad- | dition fto those served in the Auditorium there were over 100 served i the dining room of the First Presbyterian church. Proposal from Burlington. General Passenger Agent Wakeley of the | Burlington railroad at a conference with | the members of the railway commission to- day sald he intended to put on a traln April 3 to run from Oxford to Hastings. The train will leave Oxford at 5:0 a. m and return in the afternoon. It will reach Hastings in time to catch No. 2 golng east. The commission will consider the schedule after it s filed and If there fs very much objection from the people of Red Cloud | they will be given a hearing. There is on file now with the commission, petitions asking for better train service between Red Cloud and Hastings and the Red Cloud people ask that the train leave Hagtings in_fhe morning and thus give avelers serveral hours to spend In the Vebster county town. Whether it will be satisfactory to those interested for the train to originate in Oxford, going through Red Cloud to Hastings, the commission does not know, but those who object will be given an opportunity to be heard be- fore the commission endorses the schedule, | Relatives Leave Dead Man. | Joseph 8.

A REMARKABLE CAMERA LENS + 1 explained, just as they would to fish look- | observation | broad asphalt streets about the foot of the The members of the Park board gave as a Prof. Robert Willlams Wood of the chalr of experimental physics of Johns Hopkina university has just recelved word from the officials of the International Photographic exposition at Dresden, Germany, that there has been awarded to him a prize for his striking exhibit of photographs made with his fish-eye camera, and which show how the world appears to the fish. Prof. Wood's camera does not have the usual flat lens, but a projective bull's-eye that photographs everything in sight, from the fect to the sky overhead and all around the horizon, covering an angle of 1% de- grees. It will photograph objects above water or while submerged In a lake or pond. The professor has been at work on his camera for three years, but it was unknown to the public until he showed a series of photographs at the international show at Dresden, where they attracted marked attention, The ordinary camera reproduces only what is immediately in front of a small circle represented by its lens. If Prof. Wood's device be placed on a floor the projecting fish-eye will photograph all four sldes of the room and the celling at the same flash, If held close to a man, say & half foot from his walst, it will photograph all on elther side of him and all above his head and below his feet. Should it be suspended from 4 balloon, it would take a panorama of a city out to the horizon. Other cameras are limited to single views in one direction or to a seml-circle of the landscape, and this is the first that will photograph all that the human eye may see in a sweep in all directions. Its useful- ness in war, it is belleved, will be very great. The photographs that won a prize at the International exhibit are unique. One shows a string of Johns Hopkins students that Prof. Woods lined up on a curb- stone. The result has a concave effect, but the camera caught every man in the line. Another shows the sky and the cob- blestones in the street. They appear, it is Ing up from a pond at a group of men around a clrcular rafling. Anether photograph of a single individual shows him distended forward, with feet and shoulders bent backward, much like the comlc effect seen in the concave mir- rors at excursion resorts. The photograph taken from under a bridge is remarkable, because it takes In all details of the bridge out to both land ends. Prof. Woods says there is practically no "nd to the varlety of novel effects he may obtain. Weird results were obtained by a climb to the top of the gigantie Dorie column that forms the ‘Washington monu. ment in Mount Vernon place, Baltimore, The camera was held over the edge of the platform, 18 feet above the ground. 1t caught not only the sides of the pile of marble down (o its base, but the shaft, the park walks and squares to the north and south and the fashionable res!- dences and public structures on widely separated street corners.—Baltimore Star, The Weather | Nebraska—Fair and warmer. r ITowa—Fair, warmer in northeast por- ot Omaha yesterday i|as is done at the Forest Lawn cemetery, the cars are run within the grounds and visitors may alight within the grounds SCHOOLMASTERS AT DINNER Nebraska Clab Holds Social Session Schoolm: Rcme this evening, dinner, at which Chancellor Avery of the | discussion of improvements in teaching .

The true mnwardness of why President Taft did not stand upon a plece of the “‘ould sod" at the St. Patrick's ban- quet last night Is something of a mystery. In any event the sod for the most part dis- appeared during last night, probably by the route of the souvenir hunter. The sod was Imported in order that the president might address Irish-Americans from the real soll of the emerald isle. It was first reported missing from the ship on which it was being carried, but this rumor proved unfounded. Upon its arrival in Chicago it was stored in a room at the La Salle hotel, where the banquet was held tonight. Ever since its arrival crowds of Irish men and women have visited the hotel and crled at the sight of this tangfble bit of their fatherland. These people In some cases un- doubtedly carried away small pleces of the 80d, but the heaviest inroad is sald to have been made last night. In some quarters it s hinted that the disappearance was not accldental, but was f deliberately carrled out as a solution of the custom that a president of the United States shall not set foot during his term o office on foreign soll. If the sod was re- garded In the sentimental light of being an actual part of Ireland—a strayed political fragment—many argued that the president could not In propriety stand upon it. ‘When the view was presented that tho sod had no political significance, but was a mere importation of mineral and vege- table matter, the sentimentalists became somewhat peevish, When the disappearance was discovered today the officlal explanation included a statement that the sod was altogether too bulky for a banquet room and that it was not a good place to place a chair, anyway.
