HASTIS-OS , Neb , Sjpt. 20. [ Spjclal Tele-
'cram to TUB Bici-Wlicn : | tno statement
wns made In this city this morning that a
former employe of tbo Asylum for the Insane
had prcfcrred'chnrgcs against the superinten
dent nud steward , Ur. Johnson nnd A. S.
Campbell , somothlncofnsonsntlon was cunsed
here. HolliKswortli , who inado the complaint -
plaint , wns seen , but refused to.mako uny
stnicnient concerning his chniires. saying
that when thu ptoper time came ho would
give his sldo of the uiso.
Stewart Campbell was seen by TUB Bnc
correspondent and seemed to bo belli amused
and indignant. He sold that Hollincsworth
was discharged a while ago on ncvouni of In-
competency , as ho had previously uec'ii nt
Uio Clnrlmla , St. Joseph nnd Lincoln asy
lum ! . HollliiRsworth was a icp'ubllciin , but
no dlsllncllcn wns mailo on account of poll-
tics. Mr. Cimpbell did not know what
tbo chaises were but one ot them bo undet-
stood was Hint the girls employed at Iho nsv-
lum were In tbo habit of coming lo the eily
nnd drinking beer in vnriely saloons. This
ho denied. Olio fctunle nttondtint had lott to
t'o to the Norfolk asylum nnd whllo not In
the employ of tno state bad drank a class of
beer in n saloon , and another charge was
that an attendant , hud choked n patient.
This was Hue , nnd ns soon ns the fuel had
been made known to Ur. Johnson the attend
ant was inxinnlly discharged. The patient
was not In jut oil. Ur. Johnson wont down to
Llnrdln today nnd urged upon the Uoard of
PublicLandsund Uulldlncsthutnn Investiga
tion had bettor bo muduor the Linages be pub
licly branded us unworthy of investIKIIUOII.
"This town has n tough enough reputation
any way , " said Mr. Campbell , "with its
murder fn\story nnu irugedios nnd treii'-uiv
icllcit ! , w'llhout having any charges mailo
whlih cannot be substanllated. Every citi
zen has n iltrbt to see this matter sifted to
the bottom , and ll will tie done. "

Public Lands and Buildings held n mooting
nt the o til co of Airoiney Ganural Hastlncsnt
fi oYlouk for Iho purpose of Investigating
somunlleccd li regularities in the mnnujro-
ment of the stale hospital for the Incurable
insane nt Hustings. It seems that some time
since Superintendent Johnson discharged
an employe for cause. The employe was not
entirely antlstled with the nrrancemont
, which loft him out In the cold , and endeav
ored to crnin satisfaction by llilng charges
with the state Imntd.
On September 12 tbo board received n com
municatlon from Hastings charging tie aay-
lum management with several Irrcgulaillios.
Amonc otnor things it wns alleged thut the
clothing futnlshcd the inrnntos Wits unllv tor
wcnr und thai on ono occasion 0110 of the
inmates WHS harshly treated by the
attendants. The members ot the board have
been quietly Investigating the charges nnd
finished this afternoon. Thov found thut on
ono occasion nn inniato hud been treated
with undue harshness by an attendant ,
but , tno attendant bud been promptly
dUchareed bv Superintendent Johnson
ns teen ns the facts In the case
were reported to him. The board also
found that llio clothing provided is of good
quality and Kept clean and in good icpair ;
that good dl ciplno ! is maintained among
ofllccrs and employes , and that the institu
tion is being condticlcd in a businesslike
manner. Tuu conclusion of the boavcl r.l UP
nicotine this afternoon was that Superin
tendent Johnson's management of the insti
tution is in every way satisfactory.

It was not n fight between councllmen ,
such as thu puullu witnessed last year , when
the manlj f en ins or the city InwnvtUers rolled

Just as the meeting was united to order J.

across thu couittid up the main stair c.ibo.
There ho was mot by some unknown parly ,
who without n word of warning struck Wil
son lu tbo fuco with a bonvy cane and
knocked him down , uutltug u doap gash in

councllmen wore gathctcd about Wilson and
assisted him to his icot. \ hurried search
was tiitulo for the assailant , but ho had tied.
Excitement held the boards for u short
time , but the uouucilmcu soon repaired to the
council , where they at once got down to
business and listened to tbn reading of the
following poiulcd commuulcutlou from the

He had another which was > upon the subject

Is open. The political pot boils. The stump
speaker is abroad in the land. The "distin
guished fellow citizen" will be found congre
gated by the thousand in front of now pine
stands , where the orator of the evening and the
band will vie with each other in seeing which
can display the most "brass" and they'll both
play "the same old tune. " Thousands of men
will put on giddy uniforms and march through
the streets , while theoil from leaky torches
drips gently down the backs of their necks *
but "we've got to save the country. "
Is now open too. "We're after your trade. If
we've had it before we're going to keep it and
if we hav'nt had it , we'll try and get it. Our
inducements are many , but -we depend on the
power of price above all things. Our special
efforts are directed toward overcoats fall over
coats today. We are showing a line that's not
"out of sight" but right in plain sight so are
the prices.
for a splendid Melton overcoat in
$4.50 toney tans.

$6.00 Cassimere coat with silk sleeve linings
for all wool Csssimere garments new
$6.75 made shades heavy serge lined.
for a genuine Scotch Tweed overcoat
