LINCOLN. June 29 (Special.) Members
of the Board of Public Land and Buildlnp
.re talking now of buying enouah cheaper
cells fr the penitentiary, to ortng the total
Mil down to the amount appropriated and
to be able to pay the Van Doran company
Its cost contemplated under the contract
recently entered Into for a portion of the
crlla. The company la delaying the worn
of construction aa much aa It can In the
hop of securtna some legal opinion upon
the validity of the warrants that will be
rawn for pay. and so far they have mado
no move.
If Uie board tan buy eighty-four cheaper
cell this will enable It to come within the
provisions of the legislative appropriation,
which restricted It to paying tsn.ono for 2
cells, and thus silence the auditor's objec
tion to going contrary to the expressed will
of the legislature. The members of the
board say they do not think there was any
combination or pool among the bidders, but
that the Increase is due to the advance In
meel and coFt of labor. Steel men. how
ever, say that this wllJ not account for the
Increase of 1114 on each cell. Another story
told about the statehouse Is that the war
den, at the Instance of Governor Mickey,
changed his request for an appropriation
from the figure first named to lto.000. but
neglected to change the number.
The Van Doran company, some of the
statehouse attaches think, will do nothing
until it la assured that It will get Us money
In full, with no possibility of another leg
islature turning down a claim for excess,
ir it .k thi. stand the state will be
powerless and the cells will remain un
built.

President Lyman of the city council is
back from a tour of Inspection of the east.
He waa accompanied by Councilman Wilk
inson, chairman of the lighting committee
Their principal object was to ascertain some
facta relative to the use of gas for street
lighting. Electricity has been In use In
Lincoln for years, but the demand for light
Is ao great that the council has been try
ing to find some method of giving more
lights for the same amount of money as is
now expended.
Bids hare been made by the Lincoln Gas
company and a Chicago vapor lamp com
pany at $34 a light per year, and the coun
cllmen wanted to find out If it was a good
thing. They report that It Is. Gas street
lighting Is much In favor In Chicago, Cleve
land and St. Louis, and the vapor company
light is quite generally employed.
The Lincoln council is hampered by a
charter provision which prohibits a lighting
contract for more than one year, which
waa Inserted as the result of some councll
manie juggling some years ago. A number
of the oouncllmen are in favor of the prop
osition, but no action Is likely to be taken
until the people have had a chance to ex
press themselves in the matter. Some op
position has already developed. '
Phat-saaeeatlral Secretaries.
Te State Board, of. Pharmacy met this
afternoon and selected two secretaries to
All vacancies on the board. W. M. Tonner
of Lynch waa chosen for the short term
to succeed C. L. Btillman, resigned, and
Harry L. Harper of Beatrice to succeed J
H. Schmidt of Omaha, whose term expires
January L Both of the secretaries chosen
will take their offices January L
Under the law the secretaries of the
board are required to select three names
from among the members of the State Phar
maceutical association, and frorr these the
state board elects. Owing to the fact that
there is a long term and a short term to
fill this year, an interesting complication
has arisen. The secretaries some time ago
elected aa the three men for the succes
sion to the short term W. Schupback of
Columbus, N. H. Kuhn of Omaha and E.
H. Dort of Auburn. For the long term it
elected Harry L. Harper of Beatrice, W.
M. Tonner of Lynch snd George Barth of
Lincoln.
When It got to the board to select the
wo secretaries It was found that there was
strong pull being exerted for Tonner,
while It was within the memory of the
board that some consideration was due Mr.
Harper for having on a former occasion
withdrawn from a contest for a secretary
ship In order to prevent complications.
Therefore it was that the board overlooked
the three recommendations for the short
terra entirely and selected one of the long
term recommendations for the short term.

The Bushman block dental confab hss
broken out In the state house, the Stste
Board of Health being engaged today In
hearing an appeal of Sellm E Worster from
the findings of the Board of Dental Sec
retaries. Worster, who operated the Union
renta collrge on one side of the office of
Harry T. Allwlne. and the "Boston Pain
less Tentists" on the other, with colored
servants stationed In the ball to stop every
body looking for the tooih healer, was given
a hearing before the board of dental sec
retaries In Omaha June 17, on complaint
of AUwlne. who charged lilm with sharp
practice. The secretaries found hlra guilty
of dishonest and dishonorable practices
and recommended to the State Board of j
Health that his certificate be revoked.
It Is from this recommendation and find
ing that Worster appealed to the state
board. He a'.lered that the evidence was
unfair and that if Intended to make a
case a gainst anyone It was against the
Union Dental college and not against him.
He complains that Secretary Dorward ab
sented himself from the hearing while a
large part of the evidence was being taken
and did not read it before passing upo.i it.
He insists that he was refused time in
which to secure material witnesses and
that the attitude of Dorwsrd waa notori
ously biased and partial. He complains
because his counsel was not permitted to
exceed fifteen minutes In argument and
that Secretary Wente did not hear some of
the testimony that was farorabie to him.
He also complains because Secretary Dor
ward took the stand as a witness against
him, so that he appeared in the dual capa
city of witness and Judge. He asked that
the state board allow him a rehearing.
His application was granted by the board
and the greater part of the day was con
sumed In hearing the controversy. It wss
continued over until tomorrow.

Norfolk people are Intensely Indignant
over the attitude of the state board of
public lands and buildings in regard to the
reconstruction of the State Hospital for
the Insane at this place, as expressed In a
resent Interview with one of the members
In a Lincoln paper. The Interview states
that Norfolk is not yet ready for the recon
struction and that the people are In no
haste.
As a matter of fact the most prominent
cltlsens of this city have spent nearly two
years In strenuous effort attempting to
hasten the reconstruction of the institution.
They have gone to Lincoln repeatedly and
secured the passage of tbe bill appropriat
ing $100,000, with the emergency clause, so
that the money might be available before
July 1. The member of the board is quoted
as saying that work will not be begun be
fore next year.
The local men find It hard to believe the
interview, sinoe members of the board have.
In person, expressed their intention of start
ing the work Immediately.

Last night the Board of Education met
nd fixed the school levy for liwS at It mills.
Thia mill brina ths board a revenue oi
about Itt.onu from the county. Last year
the levy for school purposes was t mills.
Both Loechner and Kubat opposed the
doubling of the levy, but the others, Mor
rill, Laverty, Bock and Murphy, voted
solidly for the Increase. With the saloon
licenses, the county levy and the school
apportionment the board will have the dis
posal of about $130,000. A portion of this
sum has already been expended in the tak-
ng up of outstanding warrants. Thls levy
of 15 mills mill be certified to by Secretary
Laverty to the county commissioners ss
soon as possible.
When It came to canvassing the rote on
the high school bond proposition a petition
ass presented, signed by about seventy-five
voters, protesting against the Issuing of
bonds for the purpose. The petitioners as
serted that In four of the voting precincts
the Judges hsd not sworn to the returns.
Again the voting of women on two pre
cincts was questioned. These acts, the re
monstrstors claimed, would Invalidate the
bonds If Issued. No attention waa paid to
the protest and the board decided to go
ahead and prepare the bonds for sale.
These bonds are to run for twenty years
and bear Interest at not to exceed I per
cent.
A number of applications for positions as
teachers and janitors were received and
placed on file.
Another meeting of the board will be held
on next Monday night.
Ceaaeil Canvasses Vote.
A canvass of the votes cart at the spe
cial bond election held on June 21 waa made

overlap bonds received 61S votes in favor
and 395 against. For city hall bonds the
affirmative vote was 478 and the negative
511. Sewer bonds came next with a vote of
CS in favor and 650 against. Vpon motion
the vote of the committee appointed by the
mayor to canvass the vote was adopted.
Immediately following the adoption of the
report an ordinance was introduced au
thorizing the issuing of overlap bonds In
the sum of $70,000. This ordinance went
to the Judiciary committee. A special
meeting will be held today for the purpose
of listening to the reading of this ordl'
nance for the second time.
At the suggestion of Adklns, the city at'
torney was directed to draft an ordinance
providing for the construction of a sewer In
the alley between Twenty-sixth and Twen
ty-seventh streets from a point SS0 feet
north of B street to N street.
Clerk Shrigley was directed to notify the
Board of Education what Its portion of the
election expenses would amount to.
On account of a motion by Welsh the eon
tractors who are doing city grading were

once, else the city will complete the Jobs
and deduct the cost from the estimates.
An srproprlatlon sheer carrying with
ths pay for members of Jhe Board of Regis
tration and the Judges and elerks of elec
tion, was passed. This money Is now avail
able and may be had as soon the war
rants are signed. Thomas Hoctor filed

to his left leg and his feelings in the sum
of $5,000. This waa referred to the city at
torney.
Commissioner Ftrerald Talks.
J. J. Fltrgerald. city tax commissioner,
said last evening that the totaltng of the
tax hooks for 1903 Is going ahead aa rspldl
as could be expected. The mandamus is
sued regarding the lowering of the aeess'
ment of the packers and the telephon
company will prevent making complete
totals until the case has been disposed of
In the district court. The tax eommlssloner
nd the two members of the Board of Re
view are cited to appear before Judge Es
telle on Wenesdsy to explain why the
board lowered the assessment of these cor
poratlons after It had once been raised. A
soon es the total valuation Is known th
council will be at liberty to go ahead and
make the levy for 190$.
Iarreaaes Capital Stock.
Vice-President H. C. Bostwick of the
South Omaha National bank stated to a
Bee reporter last evening that on July 1

plus will at the same time be Increased
from $200,000 to $260,000. The undivided

caused by this Increase has a valuation
of $200 per share.
On July L C. R. Anderson, now president
of the Crete State bank, will become
cashier of the South Omaha National bank
and assume the duties so long looked after
by Mr. Bostwick. Mr. Anderson is now
preparing to move his family from Crete

plated, and these will doubtless be made
during the month of July.

Still Pay I as Taxes
The second half of the city tax of 1901
Is due on July 1 and nearly all of the cor
porations have paid in. The majority of
the property owners settled in full on Jan
uary L Only a couple of the big concerns
are still out. and Treasurer Howe looks
for checks today. City offlciala do not like
thia method of paying taxea. At first It
was thought that It would benefit the small
property owner, but experience hss shown
that It Is the corporations that take ad
vantage of the two-payment clause in the
Uw, ard not the average property owner.
There la tslk now of attempting to huvs
this section of the law repealed.

About thirty men. under ths direction of
a foreman, are now at work laying car
tracks on South Thirteenth street. This
work- starts at Dominion street and the
line will be extended to Missouri avenue,
thus making two lines cf transportation
Into Omaha. The delay In building this
extension was caused by the lack of steel.
Now that the rails have arrived, the track
laying will be pushed, and officials of the
street ear company assert that It will not
be long before cars on the Thirteenth
street line run aa far south as Missouri

Mr. E. E. Oaaton of Milton. Iowa, in a re
cent letter to Dr. Hartman. says:
"My mife has been sick mith stomach
trouble for almost three years.
"During that time we doctored with three
of the best doctors In this part of the

fell oft In flesh from 184 pounds to in pounds,
and was unable to do anything; In fact.
mas confined to her bed a good part of the
time. Everything she ate she would throw
up. even mater. The last doctor me had
the stomach, and said he could do her no
good, except to give her something to re
lieve the pain, and that he would not ad
vise us to have an operation performed.
This coming from one whom I hsve always
had great confidence In. you cannot im
agine my feelings and thoughts.
"It m-aa then m-e decided to quit doctoring
and try Peruna, and from the beginning It
helped her. She Is now able to do all the
housework. PVie Is gaining In flesh, and I
think will soon be back to her former
weight.
"To make a long story short, we owe her
life to Teruna, for I sm satisfied had m-e
not tried it she would now be In the grsve."
If you do not derive prompt and satisfac
tory results from the use of Peruna write
at once to Dr. Hartman. giving a full state

to give you his valuable advice gratis.
