American Victory.
American N athletes came out
victorious in the greatest number
of events ut the Olympic festival
at Stockholm, although competing
with I he best athletes of the
world. In this country great at
tention is paid lo physical exer
cise, to developing courage and
endurance and to competition.
Besides this a diet is prescribed
lo the athletes for strengthening
the muscles and the nerves. They
have to be temperate in every
thing and, as soon as any ir
regularity in the functions of the
body is noticed, must take ap
propirale treatment. Everybody
should live like thai, because our
life is a steady compelil ion. If
our digestion, which means our
health, is not perfect, we cannot
compete with others, unless we
use at once Triner's American
Elixir of Bitter Wine. It will
regulate the digestion, cure con
stipation, strengthen the muscles
and the nerves. At drug stores.

CONDITION

Fine Record of Official.
From WeJut-siluy's Daily.
.eorge 1 aireruld, state exam
iner of county treasurers, who bus
just completed an examination of
the books of the treasurer of this
counly, has found everything in
the best of shape and he will soon
tile a report with the commission
ers snowing the- same to lie true.
The last time Mr. Fairchild
previously examined the books
was October 5, 1110, -during the
first year of Mr. Schlater's second
term. At, that time Mr. Schlaler
had a balance on hand of
40S.7. His collections from that
date until he turned the office
over to Mr. Fox, his succesosr, on
January 4, it' 12, amounted to
$112,238.33, the aggregate being
$471,0 13.09. Mr. Schlater's dis
bursements for the same lime
were $372,280.35, leaving a bal
ance: of $99,3(52.71 to be turned
ovef to his successor. This sum,
counting to he penny, was on hand
in the treasury to be delivered to
Mr. Fox.
Mr. Fairchild hail not the
slightest trouble in che-cking over
Mr. Schlater's books and found
vouchers for every cent expended
where a voucher is required,
rendering the work of I ho ex
treasurer very satisfactory indeed
to the slate authorities. Mr. Fair
child was very complimentary of
Mr. Schlater's methods in handl
ing the ofiice during his four
years' ineumbancy, as il compared
favorably with the best in I In?
state.
Mr. Fairchild also checked
Treasurer Fox for the first six
months of his term ami found
(veryinmg nrst-ciass in every
particular. Administrations of
office like Ihese surely merit I he
appreciation and confidence of the
taxpayers.

their way to the Todd home; there
were fifty or sixty automobiles
and- numerous other vehicles
loaded with folks arrived before

Mr. Todd had creeled on his
lawfi a sort of pavilion covered
with canvas for the orchestra and
seats were erected in ampit heater
form for the audience. Ice cream
and cake was served to all, and the

TEACHERS' AUTQ
TOf T CRQQK.
Committee Was. Somewhat Dis
appointed In .Uie Small. Number
of Automobiles..
From Wednesday's Dally.,
Owing U the very busy s-eason
lor larmers, who are working
strenuously in the harvest field or
plowiug corn, many of them tele,
phoued to the management of the
Commercial club teachers' auto
mobile expedition to Fort Crook
that they would be unable- to fur
nish a car. as thev had exneeted
to do, and as the- management ex
pected. Some of the cars were
out of order and the owner could
not go on that account, so. that
yesterday forenoon it became ap
parent that all of 4 he .teachers
could not be accommodated with
a round trip ride to Fort Crook.
It was decided .that if the teachers
cared to do so, the number could
be divided and half of them
taken by auto to Fort Crook, the
other half to go via the M. P. at
5 p. tn., and all meet at the
military band concert at the fort,
and those going on the train take
the places of I hose going up in
the automobiles, allowing (hem to
go by street car to Bellevue ami
return on No. 1 i, The railroad
fare in this way would be about
17 cents each for the teachers.
The matter was put to a vote
and the project carried unani
mously. Those going by auto
mobile were requested lo meet at
the court house lawn at 7 p. m.
Fifteen minutes before the ap
pointed time the teachers began
to assemble, and five minutes be
fore 7 o'clock the first car was off,
with Pollock Parmele as chauf
feur. Superintendent Abbott was
present to see them off and pro
vided each chauffeur with two
bridge tickets, covering their
transportation across the Pollock
Duff bridge. The trip was made
m goou nine, as tne roads were
fine, and many of the machines
were back by 8:30.
Among those having automo
biles, in the excursion were:
Superintendent of the Burlington
Shops William Baird, President of
the Commercial Club T. II. Pol
lock, Hugh Cecil, Harvey Manner?,
James Holmes, Frank Bestor, Pol
lock Parmele, Park Crisswisser,
Maldon Brown, Glen Boedeker,
Mr. Meisinger, Floyd McDaniel,
Mr. Wehrebein and others.

Arthur Troop, a prosperous
younn farmer, residing near My
nurd, brought a bunch of fat hoars
to Ptaltsuiouth to ship to South
Omaha today. Mr. Troop tried to
get a car on the M. P. and load
closer at home, but the company
is so rushed with business that ha
was unable to get one. This 13
the third or fourth time the same
thing has happened in Mr. Troop's
experience. It would be a paying

it would run a spur out to Weep
