HE MADE HIS OW LANTERN
WHEN SCHOOL FUNDS FAILED
By L. Tapp
Cheyenne County High School, April 11—The faculty and students of the C. C. H. S. desired a projection lantern for more extensive work in some of the classes. Like many others, the treasury was needed for something else so the wish was not gratified until the other day, Robert Campr, professor of history, set to work, procured material and made one. It was tried out for the first time Monday night with a set of slides, "The insects of Kansas," from K. U. The lantern worked well and more slides will be shown as soon as they can be obtained.

The demand for experts in this line is as keen as the desire of manufacturers for better processes and for the utilization of by-products.
The pecuniary rewards include both large salaries and liberal percentages of the saving which the chemist brings about.

MUSEUM RECIVES
VALUABLE COLLECTION
Old Grad In Africa Send Gift of Weapons to University
A wonderful collection of native African weapons used by the pygmies and Kaffirs in south and central Africa has just been received by H. T. Martin of the department of paleontology from Barnum Brown, a geologist at the University, who is growl with the Guggenheim expedition in Africa.
In the gift are a dozen spears with steel blades twelve inches in length and with steel handles. The steel is made by the natives who mine their own iron ore, smelt it by crude processes, and forge it into weapons with rock hammers. The spears are heavy but well balanced and are of the same sort as those used by the guards who accompanied Theodore Roosevelt on his hunting trip.
There is also an assortment of steel knives made by the same processes and ranging in length from three feet to five inches. These knives are of every shape and character.
There are simple swords and there are ingenious weapons made for stabbing and then twisting in the body of the victim. The favorite shape is a crescent with notched depressions.
For defense, there is a number of large rattian shields formed in shapes best adapted to protection of the left arm and larger part of the body. The shields are rather light in weight but are the only defense against a poisoned-tipped arrows and steel bladed spears. Their construction is exact and the parts doused as if fitted by expert joiners.
The blades of these tools known to civilization cannot duplicate these blades.
The others are partly metal-tipped and partly native wood but on the point is enough poison to kill a regiment. A sort of thread is wrapped around the tips of the arrows and on this is smeared a poison of plant origin that is nearly always fatal.
The last of this group of war implements and perhaps the most interesting is a complete martial outfit of a pygmie, a member of the Ababa tribe discovered by Livingstone in his explorations in Africa.
There is a bow of polished hard wood and a quiver of hide and in the quiver is the most deadly array of arrows that man has ever seen. There are two kinds. One is a steel-tipped wand of bright metal and was used to bring down the pygmie's food.
Remedy for a poisoned arrow can be applied only at once to be of any avail to the wounded. There are nearly fifty of these little arrows and over half of them are charged with this virulent poison.
A series of excellent photographs complete the collection. Mr. Martin
will enlarge these in order to make them of use in display. He will have the entire gift on display for the first time during the Exposition.
The arrows will be placed in a glass case in order to prevent any accidental wounding with the deadly tip.
When the Guggenheim syndicate secured large concessions in German Africa they organized an exploring party and Brown, who is connected with the New York State museum, was selected as one of the party's museums. Martin commends it a particularly good one and Mr. Martin commends the spirit that leads' old grads to remember their University with like gifts.
