NORFOLK. Neb., Dee, 3. (Special)
"You may arrange for a banquet In Oc
tober. If the Nebraska State Hospital for
the Insane at Norfolk Is not completed by
that time. I will pay for J he feast. If It
la, you pay for It." It was In this fashion
that CdtaitnlsMoner Follmar. who cams with
the others of the Board of Public Lands
and Buildings to this city. Ensured Chair
man W. M. Roberta of the local committee
that the rebuilding of the state Institution
at this place would be finished by next fall.
The members of the board, Messrs. Mor
tensen, Follraer. Marsh and Prout. accom
panied by etate Architect Tyler and his
assistant. Draughtsman Harvey, ai rived fa
the city and looked over the alte for the
new buildings. They found that the west
wing of the o'd main lulldlng is as good
aa ever and that It can be used for an
amusement hall or for some other similar
purpose with very Uttle fixing. The thou
sands of bricks and the great quantity of
rock can also be used In the reconstruction.
State Architect Tyler dished out a bunch
of rough sketches to show the people of
Norfolk '.hat he had been thinking of that
new hospitsL aid he explained what la
planned In detail. The new Institution will
be put up on the cottage system. The new
main building, or administration hall, wll!
be placed Just aouth of the old one. On
tlth-r slue of this hall will stand tbe cot
tage for patients. These will bo built upon
the lawn.
There will be either three or four new
cottages, according to tbe money that Is
left when the third la completed. The main
building will bo so constructed that It may
bo added to from time to time. AH of the
new buildings will be two stories high "and
a basement will be dug under the main
ball only. Faced fire brick will be urod
for the front of the buildings and the other
portions will bo done with the material
left over from the fire. The flte brick will
be bought In Omaha..
Each cottage will be built to hold sixty
patients. The buddings will all bo made
under the same drawing- and will be toxTi
feet In dimensions. The administration
building- will be about CxaO. A dining room
In each cottage will seat thirty-two persona.
There will be no Iron tars over the win
dows, aa there were on the' old building.
Everything will be made aa nearly as pos
sible a comfortable and homelike apart
ment and all possible freedom will be al
lowed patients under the new system. Ten
nis and foot ball are planned aa features
of their athletlo amusement.'
DISCOVER BODYJJF DEAD-MAN
Life Had Beoa Estlaet for Several
Weeks la the Oplaioa ot

PAPILLION. Neb.. Dec. 3. tSpecial.)-
Whtle driving In aa cut-of-the-way por
tion of this county In the vicinity of the
Platte river, some men . discovered the
body of aa unidentified men lying under
soma brush.
A king gash had been cut In the man's
throat, extending from ear to ear. as if
made with a blunt Instrument. Enough
poison was found in the man's stomach
to kill five men. and a deep bullet wound
waa discovered In his head, evidently made
by a thirty-elght-callber revolver.
Doctors say any of these would have
killed him. It Is not thought the man
was murdered, but that he attempted
suicide and wanted to be trebly sure of
dying.
According to the statement from the
doctors the body had been lying dead for
six weeks, although decomposition had
not progressed very fast.
The msn was about M years of B-ga and
evidently a BweJe. A paper In hla pocket
contained the name Vln Nelson and ad
dress In the state ot Wisconsin. An In
quest will bo held tomorrow by Coroner
Hamilton, when further particulars will bo
learned. The report that the body waa
that of Charles RosencTana. tha mlsslnc
mason. la discredited.

LINCOLN. Dec XL (Special.) State
A ad! tor Weston returned to Lincoln last
night and for the first time In a month be
showed up at bis office this morning. AH
criminal prosecution against him tor being
a partner in the Casper bank that failed
has been dismissed. Mr. Weston stated,
and depositors will be paid In fulL Mr..
Weston paid Into the bank 110,000 in cash
to help make up the shortage. With the
other members of tbe firm Mr. Weston said
he had placed In the hands of the receiver
tSLOOA to meet the demands of the depos
itors, and that the liabilities of the bank
would reach about $50,000. v
"I was not in any particular responsible
for the bank failure," said Mr. Weston.
"I have never had anything to do with
the management of the bank other than
being a ailent partner."' Ho attributed the
failure to the collapse of the cattle and
cheep Industry, bio partners going in too
heavy. The auditor shows no 111 effect of
Ma unavoidable sojourn In Wyoming, but
expressed his pleasure at setting back to
Lincoln. In the near future a 60 per cent
dividend will be declared and later the
total deposits win be paid. Mr. Weston,
likely, will make one more trip to Casper
before the business Is wound up, but he
will take no stock In the new national
bank to bo started there.
Growth of Teachers Association.
The membership of the State Teachers'
association this year promises to be the
largeat In the history of the association,
which fact recalls that Its growth has
been little short ot marvelous. From a
membership of 16? In 1S7 It haa grown to
an organisation enrolling almost 2.000 mem
bers yearly.
The first session of the association waa
held In Lincoln In 1887. with H. Mr Jamea
aa president The second session wss held
In Fremont In 1888, with an enrollment of
271, George L. Farnham being president.
In 1851 the association met at Hastings,
Prof. C. E. Beasey being president. The
membership reached 28L Since I8S tbe as
sociation haa met In Lincoln. The follow
ing well known educators have presided
over the deliberations from the year 1390 to
1902, inclusive: A K Uoudy. A. B. Hughes,
W. E. Andrews, J. L. McBrlen. C. G.
Pearse, Jamea H. Canfleld. W. H. Skinner,
M. Spink. J. W. Crabtree. J. F. Baylor,
Charles Fordyce. D. B. Perry, W. S.
Heltxman. J. D. French. The officers at
present are: President, Superintendent C.
A. Fulmer, Beatrice; vice president, W. M.
Kern, Columbus; secretary, A. O. Thomas,
Kearney; treasurer, A. L. Cavinesa,-Fair-
bury. . . '
' One of the Interesting features of the as
sociation will be the music which will bo
In charge of Mr. Wlllard Kimball, director
of the University School of Music since
Its establishment nine years ago. These
musicians, whose- reputations are by no
means local, will appear on tbe program
Dr. J. M. -Mahew, Bessie Burruss Funke,
Everett B. Carder. A. J. Vernon Spencer,
Mrs. R.. A. Holyoka, Mrs. . K. Lewis Baker
and Mr. Kimball. -
' Another feature, toat.la attracting state
Interest la the addrsaa oa radium with dem
onstrations by C A. Skinner of Lincoln.
to bo given Thursday afternoon to the
teachers of. physical science at Nebraska
hal!. Radium la obtained from pitchblende
and at Its greatest activity a quarter of a
drachm costs 1100. It Is the belief that
radium will eventually become a potent
factor la curing cancers, enema and tuberculosis.
The local committee announced that, al
though the number of private rooms at Its
disposal exceeds that of any previous year.
yet the demand Is , proportionally large.
and that only those teachers who apply
early can be assured of securing private
rooms and board.
To Secretary Cavinesa Is due the credit of
Inaugurating tha most unique and suc
cessful plan of enrollment ever used la
the west. Advanced enrollment blanks are
sent to all cities. Teachers pay their fees
before starting from home. Membership
tickets are mailed to them, and thus they
avoid all confusion and aggravating delays
attendant upon enrolling In Lincoln. This
plan in largely responsible for the Immense
enrollment st tbe last meeting of the as
sociation. Secretary Cavinesa writes that
the advance enrollments are coming In In
Urge numbers.
Casrt May Paaa oa fee.
In all probability tha matter of the con
stitutionality of tbe practice of paying 1
per cent to county treasurers for selling or
leasing school lands.' tbe money to be de
ducted before the amount turned Into tha
permanent school fund will In the near
future be taken to the supreme court. Sev
eral days ago at the request of the land
commissioner Attorney Prout handed down
aa opinion In which he held the practice
waa constitutional, and this will be the
rule as it haa In the past unless It is over
ruled by the court. It waa reported here
today that notwithstanding thla opinion
several parties were not satisfied aqd wo&ld
take the matter Into the court. It la argued
that If the legislature has the power to
legislate to the county treasurers 1 per
cent of this money It would have power to
legislate 0 per cent, or any other portion
of the permanent school fund, which the
constitution declares shall not be dimin
ished. t
In the office of tbo land commissioner It
waa staled that office would not take the
matter up to the court because the at
torney general had ruled on It and the
office was willing to abide by his decision,
merely asking for an opinion in order to
be able to carry out the Intent of the law.
Ministers Jala Prleoa Aseetelatloa.
The Ministerial association of Omaha Is
now a part of the Nebraska Prtson asso
ciation and has Indorsed the work and the
constitution and bylays of the association.
This waa decided upon by the ministers
after the work of the association had been
explained to them by Dr. Martin of this
city, who went to Omaha about three weeks
ago for that purpose. The ministers ap
pointed a committee composed of Dr. Her
ring of the First Conrxegational church.
Dr. Jenks of the First Presbyterian church
and Dr. Smith of the First Methodist Epis
copal church to look Into the matter fur
ther and this morning this committee noti
fied Dr. Martin that the ministers desired
to be enrolled among the members of the
Prison assorts Hon.
The letter was a splendid Indorsement of
the Prison association and Its work was an
Indication that the ministers of Omaha
would do all In their power ot further the
work of the association. The Ministerial
association of Lincoln Joined the Prison ;
association last spring and at present there j
are m Lincoln people members of It. At a
meeting to be held on the evening of IV- j
cemner 29. at the Llndell hotel, an effort
will be made to change the constitution and
by-laws to permit of a wider range of work
of the association. After thla meeting the
nnual report of the association will be
aubllshed.
Eatertalaaaeat at Pealteatlary.
At the State penitentiary Christmas j
morning the convicts will give an enter
tainment for their own benefit, at which
only they and officers of the institution
will be present. That evening they will!
give a musical and literary, at which the
public win be admitted. A nominal admis
sion fee will be charged.
Crasado Agalast laaoore Milk.
Food Commissioner Thompson Is again
going after the milk dealers and this time
It Is for the purpose ef getting In close
touch with cows tainted with tuberculosa
He will do thla under the statute which
reposes In htm the power to stop tha aale
of milk of diseased cows.
The campaign will probably begin In the
neighborhood of Lincoln with an Inspection
of the local sources of milk supply. There
are several hundred people who keep cows
and sell milk In small quantities and the
task which will be undertaken will be a
large one. Instructions have been 1sfu?4
to the chemist of the department to make
preparations to carry on the operations
of testing milk for the dread bacilli. Un
der the power conferred by statute the
commissioner has Urge powers t6 examine
Into the conditions under which the milk is
produced and haa a like power to condemn.
Tbe statute under which Mr. Thorn peon
acts provides that any one guilty of tbe
sale of l4ulterated milk, of of diseased
cattle, .with the knowledge of that fact,
shall be fined not less than IS nor more
than 1100, and bars the right of selling It.
Release Alleged Beak Robber.
Detective Malone stated today that he
had released the three men he had arreated
charged with robbing the Pleasant Dale
bank because no one seemed anxious to
prosecute them. At the time of the arrest
one of tha men, so Malono said, confessed
to a share In the robbery. ,
'' In Judge Holmes' court today Mrs. Mary
Knight la suing her husband. County Treas
urer Knight, tot divorce. The testimony
given by the wife waa of the sensational
order. The case waa brought when Knight
was a', candidate for re-election and from
the extracts of the rite's petition It waa
generally thought that It would have some
tearing on the result of the vote. 'Evi
dently It did not, however, aa Knight got
