Since Nebraska is to furnish the
candidate for president on the dem

thing t tr its delegation to have fine
headquarters. The following dispatch
from Ivin-sas Cilv to the Bee states
what arrangements h ve been made
"Three delegates to the national
democratic convention from Nebraska
and J. C. Dahlman, ex-chairman of
the Nebraska democratic central com
mittep, came here today for the pur
pose of deciding upon the quarters for
Nebraska's delegation at tho conven
tion.
"The X-hra-ka delegation will at
tend the convention in style. Tho
committee engaged at the Coales
hous the club room on the first floor
and three banquet rooms on the sec
ond floor for headquarters, and re
served space for six sleeping rooms.
"These headquarters are by far the
most elaborate yet engaged by any-
state delegation. The Nebraska dele
ga'es believe that the Nebraska dele
gation will be a cenltr of attraction at
the convention and that for this reason
adequate headquarters should be m attained."

There is more Catarrh in this section ot the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last tew years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly tailing: to cure with
local treatment, pronotinced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. J. Cheney & Co , Toledo. Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. It is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspcon
ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred
