(From a Staff Correspondent.)
fJNCOLN, Au. 25.-(8pecial.)-The office
force In Superintendent Fowler' office has
forwarded requests to the officials of the ,
Ave junior normal schools which were In
session for ten weeks during; the summer
.and Just recently closed for complete rec
ords of their enrollment and other data
bearing upon the value of the Institutions
Involved to the state. The total enroll
ment for the Ave schools, which were
located at North Platte, Holdreg", McCook.
Alliance and Valentine, approximated 1.000
teachers. Of this number Deputy Superin
tendent McBrlen estimates that fully three
fourth would not have had the advantage
of a summer normal course4 but for the
establishment of the junior-normals. The
attendance at the state university summer
school and at the summer session at the
Peru normal was slightly reduced by the
existence of the junior schools, but their
authorlsatlon by the last legislature Is
recognized as a distinct "gain to the educa
tional Interests of the state by having given
almost 1.000 teachers in the western sec
tion an opportunity to aid to their pro
ficiency in their profession and having
proved their worth as to every other stand
point from which the Junior normal pro
ject can be viewed. Superintendent Fow
ler tnd his assistants will prepare the sta
tistics bearing upon the Junior normals and
forward them to educators generally
throughout the state. ,

SCHALLEN3ERG WILL NOT QUIT
Angered at Defeat In I.avrsalt lie
Takes Low Into Ills Own
Hands.
FREMONT. Neb., Aug. 25. (Special Tele
gramsSheriff rtauman went to Scribner
tcday and arrested Jake Schallcnberg on
the charge of violating his bond to keep
the peace by cutting and hauling some
hay on land belonging to Barnard Monlch.
The trouble grows out of the famous
Schal'enberg-Kroegcr case, which has been
In the various courts of this state for
t-enty-ftve years, and finally resulted In
a decree awarding the land In controversy
to the defendants, Kroeger and Monlch,
nnd the lsn.ie of a perpetual Injunction
restraining the Schatlenbergs from Inter
fering with the land. After fighting the
case through all the courts and being
beaten at every turn, they took the law
Into their own handstand burned some hay
which Monlch, the present owner, had cut.
Jake and his father were arrested, and,
while admitting that they had burned the
hny, pleaded not guilty and gave bond for
their appearance at the next term of the
district court.
Jake was at once arrested on a peace
warrant, charging him with making
(Jirrats to kill or assault Monlch and de
stroy the hay on the land, and showing
a very cearlntent to carry the threats
Into execution. After a day In Jail he gave
ball on that charge, and assured the court
that he would not even set a foot on the
land. Instead of doing so, he went home
and cut some more of Monlch's hay, ac
cording to the reports of the neighbors.
Monlch sent some teams and hauled the
hay off. This aroused Jake's Ire still
more than being arrested twice, and It Is
claimed he made a second attempt to get
the hay, and succeeded. His arrest was
made at .he Instigation of his bondsman.
In addition to the two criminal charges
against him he will probably have to face
a complaint for contempt of the district
court.
The Schatlenbergs are very Ignorant and
unable to understand English. They claim
that their woes are the result of a con
spiracy of the dozen or more different
lawyers they have employed. Juries, courts,
witnesses, their neighbors and the publlo
generally to beat them out of the land.
Republicans Will Win In Knox.
CENTER, Neb., Aug. 25. (Special.) The
democrats and populists met In convention
In this county today and attempted to
"fuse," and for a time the proceedings
were as amusing as any circus. The demo
crats, who are In the minority, asked for
three of the minor offices, and the "pops"
granted their request. Then, after consid
ering how easy tho "pops" were, the dem
ocrats concluded that they had better ask
for two of the most Important. 8ome of
the populists, thinking that to let two of
fice go was better than three. Jumped up
and carried the proposition. Then It
transpired that the two offices sought by
the democrats were the very two that the
pops" wanted themselves. Pandemonium
reigned supreme for about an hour, and
many "pops" left the convention hall and
threatened to go home. However, the bolt
was finally patched up by the remaining
ones, and the democrats were allowed to
take the offices of clerk of the district
court, county judgo and superintendent of
instruction,, th populists taking the rest.
It la conceded by many delegates from
both parties that the republican . will
sweep the plattof clean this fall.

has mado very good progress.
In response to a circular, special reports
have been received as to the probable
length of time required under normal con
ditions to place corn beyond danger of harm
by killing frost. Reports dhow an unusually
variable condition of the crop a to stage
of growth and prospective output. Evsn
In the aame districts and adjoining coun
ties marked differences are In evidence.
For the whole state about 40 per cent was
planted early and made a fair start: and
this portion of the crop on average may
be safe by September 10 to 20. A portion
of the later planted (possibly 20 per cent
of the whole area) may be fairly matured
by September 20. With favorable weather
till October 10 we may reasonably expect
to harvest sound corn In three-fourths of
the area planted and not abandoned to the
weeds. The output from this area will
range from light to very good. With a
beginning and frostless period through
September snd a little beyond, the total
yield for the state may equal th crop of
1901.

Ask
Your
Doctor
He will tell you
That barley. malt Is a
half-digested food, as good
as food can be.
That hops are an ex
cellent tonic.
That the little alcohol in
beer only SyZ per cent
is an aid to digestion.
But Purity
is Essential
But he will tell you that
beer must be protected
from germs, and brewed
in absolute cleanliness.
He'll say, too, that ape!
is important, for age brings
perfect fermentation.
Without it, beer ferments
on the stomach, causing
biliousness.
Schliti beer is brewed with r.Il
precautions. It is the recon
nized standard all the world
over, because of its purity.
