WILL COMMENCE JUNE 2,1 1913
The continuation for another two
years of the State Junior Normals,
with the exception of the one at
Geneva, was provided for in the gen
eral maintenance bill passed tyy the
last legislature. Persons who are fa
miliar with conditions of educational
work in northwestern Nebraska are
aware that to discontinue the Alli
ance State Junior Normal would be
a great detriment of the cause of
education in this part of the state.
It Is a pleasure to note that Sen
ator Reynolds and Representative
Relsche, both of Chadron, favored
the continuation of the Alliance Jun
ior Normal, tt ie well known to
those who have kept tab on the op
position to the State Junior Normals
that most of it comes from persons
who nre interested in the State Nor
mal schools, hoping to strengthen
them by discontinuing tho I Junior
Normals. Many persons are helped
by the Junior Normals, especially the
one at Alliance, that would not be
reached by the State Normals. The
unselfish attitude of Chadron people
towards Alliance in the matter of
the Junior Normal Is highly appre
ciated by the people here, and we
think will. In the long run, be a ben
efit, rather than a detriment to the
Chadron State Normal.
The Alliance Junior Normal will
begin June 2nd and continue eight
weeks. The first week will be insti
tute week for Box Butte county,
but teaohers attending from other
counties will be given CTedlt the
same as though attending In their
own counties. The Junior Normal
course of study will be commenced
on the opening day, so that those
who are not teachers, as well as
those who are, should enrolj at the
beginning of the session.
Following faculty was announced
by the state superintendent and pub
lished in the daily papers:
Alliance Superintendent W R.
Patf, Alliance, principal; Supt. C. N.
Walton, Wahoo; Supt. Ralph M.
Maris, Bridgeport; Supt. William H
Morton, Ashland; Supt. H. H. Rei
muttd, Weeping Water; Supt. W. J.
Brahain, Sidney; Miss Carrie Nieder
incycr, Lincoln.
Further information will be given
in The Herald next week.

RIVER IS BEING SEARCHED
Scottsbluff, Thursday morning, Spe
cial to The Alliance Herald.- Elmer
A. McFall, we'll known in Alliance
ami east in the hills, went in his
Ford car to the North Platte River
Tuesday afternoon at one o'clock
to get some cottonwood trees to
pla it on some lote he has there,
i lu car was found but he BM not
been located and it is supposed lie
became caught in quicksand and
drowne d.
McFall's wife is prostrated and
her condition is serious. His fath
er. Rev. C. E. McFall. of AatU.h.
went to Scottsbluff this noon to as
sist in the search. He had very
little hope of ever seeing his son
alive again. Dozens of men are
dragfiinj; the I'latte at Scottsbluff
and searching the brush and banks
of the river, but so far no trace has
been found.
McFall had driven his ear out Into
the river some distance on an is
land, near the west end of the bridge
wtst of Scotttblulf which etrosBe to
Mitchell Valley, south of the river.
He took with him a spade and pair
of rubber hip boots. He was seen
by some small boys, who were fish
ing, to drive the car baek towards
the bridge. That was the la.-.: lean
cf him alive. When he did not re
turn by supper time, as his wife ex
pected, for he had planned to plaiii
the trees t hat afternoon, she semt
her brother, Willi Jordan, to hunt
for him. He did not locate the car
until 10 o'clock Tuesday night. She
had called on the chief of police for
assistance before that time. Parties
searched all night with-iut result.
Mc Kail's hip boots were gone, as
well as the spade. In the car aere
BELIEVED WORST IS PAST
A few cases of scarlet fever and
quite a number of smallpox in light
form have led to the taking of
steps to stamp out the diseases In
short order. A meeting was held In
the city hall Monday evening to con
sider the matter, attended by the
board of health and other citizens.
After a thorough discussion of the
subject, It was ordered iiy tho board
of health to close temporarily all
places of public assemblage, includ
ing schools, churches, theatres, clubs,
lodges, eto. By many it was thought
that the closing of the schools was
unnecessary, as close check can be
kept on those who attend and should
any of them be taken sick it could
be discovered and reported immedi
ately; but the board of health ilecid
ed that It would be beet to have
tin in closed for a few days, await
ing developments.
In addition to forbidding public
meetings for the present, stricter
quarantine regulations have been in
stituted. All dogs are required to
be kept off the streets and out of
the alleys under penalty of being
shot. Additional deputy marshals to
help enforce the quarantine have
been appointed. They must shoot
any dogs found off their owners'
premises. Postmaster Tash has Is
sued the following post office quar
antine regulation :
"Until quarantine is raised, the
post office will be closed from 9:00
o'clock p.m. until 7:00 o'clock a.m.
for fumigation. All street letter box
es will be closed. No malls will be
received on trains from Individuals.
All mail must be brought to the post
office and fumigated before being
dispatched. IRA E TASH, Postmas
ter." A general cleaning up of the
city has been ordered, and this much
at least may be a "blessing In dis
guise". This is the time of year
when the public health, regardless,
of the present contagion, d-.'iirinM
a thorough cleaning up of yards, al-
i leys and streets. The board of
! health and officers working under
i their orders are determined thnt the
ruloe laid clown shall be strictly o
beyed and will be enforced to the
lit'er. The mayor has Issued the
following
Jm Proclamation
As mayor of the city of Alliance.
1 urge the people of this c ity to, ob
serve "clean up week". Saturday.
Muy 3, and all the wee'k of May 4th
have been officially designated as
cleaning up days, and the people of
Alliance are asked to clean up their
premises, alleys and parkings and to
burn all burnable rubbish.
All officials eif 'he city are work
ing toward this end thnt we may
have a cleaner, more beautiful and
healthful citv and behooves all to
'aid. The reside n-e sections will be

i and all broken bottles, Jars, glass
1 ware, cans, etc., should be placed
in receptacles of some kind and left
on the parking or In tihe alley, where
tlie wagons can collect them.
The hearty co-operation of the peo
ple of Alliance In this enterprise
will be appreciated by all, In view of
the present condition of the pobli

Exaggerated Statements
So many exaggerated statements
havt been current t,i;it The Herald
' has thought bet to go into this mat
I .er In detail In order that the pub
' lie may be set right. There huve
been some fatalities from scarlet fe
1 ver, but the three cases that now
exist are und'- strict quarantine- and
las this is principally a children's
j disease It la thought there will be
no further spread of It. As for the
smallpox, while there are many cases
I of It he re, it exists only In its light--st
form, which is one cause tor the
!-:)rad of the disease. Persons have
j had it without knowing it for some
i time, calling It n bad cold or grippe
or something else. Now that the
slightest sickness is looked upon
piciously and reported to the phis,
I elans, and a large percer'age of the
j people of the c ity have already h ti
: ace -mated, it is probable tin re will
! be but few, ir any. more additional
c ases.

the handiwork of the aristocrat U

and, to those who saw, a Joyous

Shortly after 2 o'e'loek the Nor

they were given, with lusty good will.
Soon th Normal orchestra wns In

of the room, and presently was dis

which the organization Is noted, each

For an hour or more this opening
