LINCOLN', Feb. 18. (Special.) Interest
In legislative circles today centered In tho
Lcnate commlttoo on medical societies,
tthlch met tor tho purpose of listening to
a discussion .on tho merits and demerits at
senate file 102, a bill permitting tbe prac
tice of osteopathy In the stato of No
branka. Tho commlttoo room was crowded
with on cagor. throng ot Interested specta
tors, among whom were many practlcloners
ot both tho regular nnd ostaopMhlo schools,
well as halt a hundred medloal stu
dents. The discussion between the two fac
tions was spirited nt times and consider
able sarcasm was Indulged in.
Tho bill provides that "any person hold
ing ft diploma from a shool or collego of
osteopathy In good standing shall, upon
presentation of such diploma to the Btato
Hoard of Health of Nebraska, be granted
by such board n certificate permitting such
person to practice osteopathy In tho stato
of Nebraska, upon payment to said board
of n fco of $10. which certificate shall be
recorded by tho county clerk, of the county
In which the holder desires to practice, for
which said county clerk shall receive a fee
of $1.
"The term school or college of oste
opathy In good standing shall bo defined as
a legally chartered osteopathic school or
coltege, requiring beforo admission to Its
course ot study a preliminary examination
In all the common branches. It shall fur
ther rcqulro as requisite tor granting
the degree of diptomato or doctor In os
teopathy an actual attendanco at such os
teopathic school or college of at least
twenty months, or four terras of five
months each, Its course pt study to
Include anatomy, physiology, physiological
chemistry, toxicology, histology, hygiene,
pathology, symptomatology, physical diag
nosis, obstetrics, gynecology, medical Juris
prudence, osteopathic therapeutics and the
ory and practice of osteopathy and espe
cially requiring clinical Instruction In tbe
principles and practlco of osteopathy of not
less than four hours per weekj tho last
ten months ot Its course and having a full
faculty of professors to teach tho studies
of Its course Tho foregoing requirements
shall be regularly published In each pros
pectus or catalogue of such osteopathic
rchool or college. Tho certificate provided
for shall not authorize the holder thereof
to prcscrlbo or uso drugs In his or her
prnctlec, nor to perform operative surgery.
Tho board may revoko certificates of per
sons guilty of unprofessional or dishonora
ble conduct; provided always, tbat they
havo glveu the person nn opportunity to be
hrnrd In his or her defense."
Tho cause ot the osteopaths was first pre
sented to tho commtttco by Dr. Little, Lin
coln osteopath, who has several times been
u rrcatcd for the practlco ot osteopathy.
Ho claimed tho friends of osteopathy were
asking for nothing but Justice Tholr treat
ment could result In no harm and It had
been proved that much good had resulted
'herefrom.
Dr. LUtIo was followed by Prof. C. W.
roctor, a member of tho faculty of the
Klrksvllle School of Osteopathy, who dis
claimed any Intention of antagonizing tho
medical fraternity. He said osteopathy was
recognized In nearly all ot tho surrounding
stntos.and thoro was. need of'such, recogni
tion In Nebraska.
Dr. Ci'uramer, who holds a chair In the
Crclghton Medical college, appeared In
bohalt of the practitioners of medicine. Ho
thought a practitioner could not know tho
much of his protestiton and be did not think
the two years' courso of study prescribed
by tho school of osteopathy was sufficient.
Students of tho regular school were required
to study four years beforo being granted a
Jlploma. The present standard, he urged,
should not bo lowered.
Dr. A. P. Jones, professor of surgery
In tho Omaha Medical college, said tho
ttato could not bo too careful In making
laws rogulatlng practitioners. In his
opinion osteopathy was nothing more than
the massage treatment, or Swedish move
ment. Prof. Ward of tho State university and
Dr. Georgoialso spoke.
Dr. Crummer Bald tho law should be
amended so that nn examination should bo
required, no matter from what school the
applicant held a diploma, whereupon Dr.
Littlo said tho osteopaths would accept
(lich a law If they could be convinced that
this was not nlmply n move to kill the
present bill and then not accomplish any
thing. The bill was discussed two hours, but
beforo the committee reached any conclu
sion the members were sent for by the
genate and the bill was reported to tho gen
eral fllo without recommendation, thus piac
Ing tho matter where It can be brought out
on the floor of tho senate.

GARDNER'S TRIAL IS NEXT
Dnrrell'a la to Follow, nnd Iloth Are
Depressed Since Ilhea'a
Conviction.
FREMONT, Neb,, Feb. 18. (Special.)
In district court this morning Attorneys
Gray and Maynard mado application for a
contlnuanco of the case ot Gardner, tbo
big man of tho alleged Zahn murderers, on
tho ground that Mr. Gray, on account ot
professional engagements, was unable to
proceed with tho trial for at least four
weeks. Affidavits of Maynard, Gray, Loomls
and Gardner were filed In support of the
motion. Mr. Gray characterized the notion
ot tho county attorney In Insisting on the
trial of the caso at once as unreasonable,
arbitrary and dictatorial. Tho court over
ruled tho motion. With tho consent of tho
court Mr. Gray withdrew ns attorney for
Gardner and Uutton & Cook were appointed
In his place. Tho court excused the regu
lar panel of Jurors until March 5 and or
dered a spectnl venire, returnablo on Feb
ruary 19 at 10 n. m.
The court took up tho plea In abatement
filed by Darrell's attorneys to tho fourth
count of tho Information. Tho third man
was brought In, handcuffed, by Policeman
Chestnut. Ha has lost considerable flesh
Blnce his arrest nnd looked pale. His eyes
at t(mes wandered restlessly around tho
room and he seemed to be laboring under
suppressed mental excitement. Judgo
Grlmlson overruled tho plea In abatement.
Darrell waived the reading ot the Informa
tion and pleaded not guilty. Ills trial will
follow that ot Gardner.
The verdict of tho Jury fixing the death
penalty appears to havo littlo effect on
line a. Last ovenlng bo hummed a ragtime
song ns he walkod up and down his nnrrow
cell and ended It by dancing n lively Jig.
This morning he laughed and tried to Joko
with Gardner and Darrell, as unconcerned
as at any time since his arrest. Gardner
and Darrell have been much doprcssod since
Rhea s conviction. Tho big man says littlo.
Ho walks his cell and sits looking through
the bars with a weary, anxious look.

FRAMPTON'S GUILT FIXED
Coroner' Jury (lulokly I'lntln that
He Killed Ilia Step
(laughter. NEBRASKA CITY, Neb., Feb. 18. (Spcr
clal Telegram.) Coroner Karstens Impan
eled a Jury this afternoon to conduct an In
quest upon the body of Ella Clark, who was
shot by Hall Frampton, her stepfather, Inst
night. Twelve witnesses, most of whom
wero eye-witnesses of tho deed, were exam
ined. Their testimony was clear nnd con
clusive ns to the guilt of tho accused. Tho
verdict was In part as follows:
"That tho Bald Ella Clark, commonly
known ns Ella Frampton, came to her
death from the effects of wounds Inflicted
upon her head with n double-barrelled shot
gun In tbe hands of one Hall Frampton,
thereby causing her death."
The Jury was composed of prominent
business men of the city. There is much
feeling against Frampton among the col
ored people of the city, although It Is Im
probable that nny move toward violence
will bo attempted. Sevoral well known col
ored men from nearby towns arrived thiti
evonlng and have expressed themselves In
strong terms as to the punishment thnt
should be meted out 'to the prisoner.
Frampton seems somewhat concerned for
his safety,

MORE DEBATE ON "EXTRAVAGANCE"
Sundry Civil Hill's Consideration in
spire Mr. Cannon to DUclinrRO
Hot Shntn nt the Ivoononi
Icnl Minority.
WASHINGTON. Feb. IS. The bill to au
thorize tho holding of the International ex
position in celebration of the centennial an
niversary of tho Ixiulslana purchase at St.
Louis In 1903, and appropriating $5,000,000
therefor, passed tho house today under sus
pension ot tho rules, 191 to 41.
The opposition was hopelessly In tho
minority and tho struggle over the bill was
brief. Tbe question of closing tho exposi
tion on Sunday was not mentioned during
tho debate.
Tho bill to define the word "conspiracy"
in tho Sherman anti-trust law to avoid tho
possibility ot Its being held appllcnblo to
labor organizations was defeated by almost
n two-thirds voto on account of two amend
ments which tho Judiciary committee placed
on tho bill;
Cannon nn Appropriations,
Tho sundry civil bill was under consider
ation late In the day, and Mr. Cannon,
chairman ot the appropriations committee,
undertook to make a detailed stntemcnt of
tho expenditures ot tho present congress.
Ho was led to this, he said, by many criti
cisms ot tho reckless extravaganco of this
congress. Tho situation, ho said, was quite
bad enough without exaggerating It. He
figured that tho appropriations would total
5004,158,550, exclusive of the sinking fund
requirement of S53.000.000, ngalnst 1057,150,
862 for tho current year. In tho course of
his remarks ho fired some hot shots nt the
minority for prating of economy nnd not
helping to uphold the hands ot himself and
others when they wero trying to keep ap
propriations down.
When tho exposition bill was taken up
tho local committee from St. Louts and a
delegation from the Women's Christian
Temperanco union, who are. lntorested In
having tho bill amended so ns to provide
for tho closing ot the exposition on Sunday
nnd to prohibit tho sale ot liquors on the
grounds nlso, were In tho gallery to watch
the fight. Immediately after tho reading of
tho Journal, Mr. Tawney of Minnesota,
chairman of the special committee on tho
Louisiana Purchaso exposition, moved tho
passage under suspension of 'tbo rules of
the bill appropriating J5.000.000 for tho ex
position." TaVvney Ilniinia the Show.
Mr. Tawnoy dilated on tho great and
overshadowing Importance of, the event
which this proposed exposition was to cele
brate, calling attention to the fact that of
all expositions held In this country congress
had authorized but two the Centennial
celebration nt Philadelphia and the exposi
tion at Chicago to commemorate the 400th
anniversary of tho discovery of America.
Congress, ho said, had. only provided for
Its own exhibit at other expositions. The
magnitude of the "event to be celobrated at
St. Louis made It proper that congress
shculd nuthorlze It.
Miiddnx Onpoaea IIIU.
Mr. Maddox of Georgia opposed the bill.
Ho said ho did not Imagine his opposition
would avail. "It ought not to," crlod Mr.
Tawney, "In vlow of the contract wo made
at tho last session."
"I want to talk about other contracts
Just as binding," replied Mr. Mnddox, and
proceeded to recall the manner In which
Mr. Cannon, chntrmnn of tho appropriations
committee, wns fighting honest claims. '
"Moreover, ho said, "there woro to be no
public buildings authorized by this con
gress on account of tho growth of expendi
tures. Tho S3.000.000 which congress would
glvo to a private enterprlBO by this bill,"
ho sold, "would build fifty necessary public
buildings." He was anxious, ho said, to
sco whero tho "watch dog of the treasury,"
Mr. Cannon, stood upon this bill.
Mr. Sims of Tennessee, who followed Mr.
Maddox, taunted Mr. Cannon with fighting
honest claims of n few hundred dollars and
then remaining quiescent when such a bill
ns tho pending ono was beforo tho house.
Ho declared that Mr. Cannon If he would
exert his Influence could defeat this meas
ure. Mr. Sims declared that no exposi
tion bill was Justifiable. Ho nppealed to
his democratic colleagues not to voto for
tho pending measure.
Ton I.nte to Hack Ont.
Mr. Cannon said bo had consistently
and persistently opposed such legislation.
Ho agreed that exposition matters had
run wild. But this bill was now upon a
footing whero It could not bo disregarded.
Ho referred to tho paragraph In tho sun
dry civil bill ot tho last session. It had
been placed In the bill by Senator Cock
rell, a democrat, In the senate. Ho had
opposed it with voice and voto, but It
had becomo a Inw.
St. Louis had complied with Its part of
tho contract nnd tho government was
obliged to comply also. He should, there
fore, vote for tho pending bill.
Tho St. Louis exposition bill passed the
houso bv n voto of 191 to 41. The re
sult was received with npplause.

Appropriation II 1 1 1 .
WASHINGTON, Feb. 18,-Xenrly the
whole of today's session of the senato was
dovoted to consideration of tho postofflce
appropriation bill. So far as coramltteo
amendments to tho measuro aro concerned
tho bill practically was completed, although
tho amendment appropriating $300,000 for
an extension ot the pneumatic tubo service
remains undisposed of. A point of order
wns mado ngalnst it, but on the appeal of
Mr. Mason of Illinois the entlro question
was passed over until tomorrow.
Only a few senators being in tho chambor
when tho senuto convened, Mr. Pettlgrow
suggested tho absence of n quorum. Forty
fivo senators, a quorum, responded.
In pursuance of previous notlco Mr. Pet
tus of Alnbama addressed tho senato In
opposition to tho ship subsidy bill,
I'cttiin Si-ore the' Subaltl-.
Mr. Pettus likened tho beneficiaries under
tho subsidy bill to two attorneys who once
had won In tho courts by questionable meth
ods a noted caso Involving a largo amount
of cotton. As tho two wero dividing the
S5.000 feo one of them remarked gravely:
"We nre not In danger of going to tho
poor bouse, but aro wo not rubbing up
ngalnst tho walls of tho penitentiary?"
"The benellclurlos of thin bill," snld Mr.
Pettus, "will never be In danger of tho
poor bouse." (Laughter.)
I'oaliimue Appropriation.
The postofflco appropriation was then
taken up on motion of Mr. Wolcott, chair
man of tho committee on postofllces nnd
post roads. As reported by tho senate
ctrmmittcc, tho bill carried $121,308, OSS.
Explaining tho committee amendment ap
propriating S500.000 for the extension of tho
transportation of mall by tho pneumatic
tube system, Air. Wolcott said tho pro
vision was practically tho aamo as that
proposed In the last session of congress ex
cept that It provided for tho continuation
of contracts for pneumatic tube service,
which, by limitation, expired July 1 next.
Personally ho was opposed to the provision
and naked therefore that one of the advo
cates of Ihe provision take charge ot It.
Mr. Butler of North Carolina offered u
amendment reducing the sum appropriated
for inland transportation ot mall by rail
road routes from 134,700,000 to J32.000.000
and authorizing tho postmaster general to
readjust tbo cost of carrying the malls
over railroad routes and reduco It at least
E per cent below tho figures mndo nt pres
ent. Tho bill was thon laid nsldo for tho
day.
Tho Louisiana Purchase exposition bill
passed by tho houso was laid beforo tho
senate and referred.
At 5:60, on motion of Mr. Wolcott, tho
senato went Into executive session, nnd
at 6 o'clock adjourned.

I have during the past two years been seri

February, 1900, saw an ad which advocated '
the use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin for
such trouble. I endeavored to secure the
remedy in Texas, but failed, and while at
Guthrie, O. T., purchased several bottles,
which I kept in my house. As to my own trouble, the first bottle did the work,
and I am taking my three square meals per day without any of the bad results which
had heretofore been bothering me. I can cheerfully recommend to the public Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin for stomach trouble. Respectfully, ED. H. LOVE.

Kodo
Dyspepsia Cure
The process of digestion Is simply explained. In the mouth,
food is masticated and mixed with saliva containing a dlgestant
called ptyalin. In the stomach, it is acted upon by gastric juice
containing pepsin, which digests nlbuminous foods. In the
intestines, pancreatin is added to digest fats and starches.
Indigestion always indicates an insufficient amount of one or
all of thesedlgestants. At first thought it seems propor to abstain
from foods not easily digested; but reflection shows us that
while this affords relief by giving tho weakened organs less to
do, it only makes them weaker by giving them less nourishment.
If you suffer from indigestion, the only right thing to do is to
eat a generous variety of food and digest It by using suoh a
preparation as Kodol Dyspepsia Cdkb, which contains all tho
known dlgcstants, and completely 'digests what you eat.
"After forty years of suffering from indigestion, a few bottles
of Kodol Dyspepsia Curo cured me." ArrizlBoll, Frcdonia, Pa.
