Blgr Irrigation Project.
Further plans of the Irrigation proj
ect to be undertaken by the government
In Nebraska were filed with the State
.Hoard of Irrigation today. In this state
over 160,000 acres can be watered and the
canals will be ISO miles In length. The
government plans to build a reservoir In
the Granite gorge of the North Platte,
above Casper, Wyo., at the Junction of
the North Platte and Sweetwater rivers.
The dam at the Junction of ths rivers
will be 260 feet wide at the base and 168
at the top and will make a reservoir cov
ering 22,000 acres, with an average depth
of 60 feet of water.
The dam will be provided with two
Immense tunnels at Its base to prevent
overflow and with a "spill-water" which
will carry off any unusual amount of water
caused by heavy rains In tha moun.a.na
thus, insuring absolute safety from flojda
and a' possible' sweeping awsy of the re
taining wall.
From the reservoir five large irriga
tion canals will be fed. Their cost and
the number of acre each will Irrigate are
ss follows: Casper canal, (450,000; acres,
21,000. Douglas canal, ftCO.OOO; acres, 28.000.
Goshen Hole canal, $3,075,000; acres, 3XA0.
Fort Laramie canal, $2.600,oJD; acrej, 126.MJO.
interstate canal, 4,0v0,000; acres, 150,00 .
The Interstate canal is the one which
will serve Nebraska. It will be the moat
expensive of any of the work to be con
structed and will tost more than W an
acre for each acre It Irrigates. The canal
heads in the North Platte liver, to ty
miles from the Nebraska west state line,
ten miles above Fort Laramie, tapping
the river on the north side and com
ing down parallel to the river until within
a feW miles of the state. It will enter
Nebraska near Collins, Scott's Bluff county,
run through ths entire . county d.ag
onally 'and continue on to within a short
distance of the east line of Cheyenne
county.. Its total' length from the head
will be more than W ml.es and the stream
of water will exceed In volume the flow
of a large creek or small river. Additional
maps will bo -tiled 'by the government
with the state board In a few days, show
ing what sections of land will be Irrigated
by the canals and what side ditches w.ll
be allowed. Work of construction will
begin soon.
TroaM Over Hartley Deal.
It Is not Improbable that the famous
"Bartley cigar boa" will again hold down
the boards In Lincoln when Receiver James
Hill makes, or tries to make, his final
settlement In the matter of the defunct
Lincoln Savings bank. Recently Mr, Hill
turned over to State Treasurer Mortensen
some 13,000 as dividends to be applied on
a deposit to the credit of Joseph S. Bart
lry, stats treasurer. Mr. Mortensen gave
his receipt as treasurer for the amount,
for he had no record of the transaction in
. ' offlos and neither did he have the
receiver's reelpt for the money. It Is
not known vet whether Judge Holmes will
demand the receiver's receipt . before dis
charging the receiver. If he doe there
will be something doing, for It Is under
stood that Mr. Bartley has washed his
hands of the affair and refuses to dig up
the receipt Judge Holmes said this aft
ernoon he would make a thorough Inves
tigation ot the matter before taking Anal
action.
Basle for Read Levy.
Attorney General Prout has handed down
a ruling at the request of the county at
torney of Brown countv to the effect that
the levy for road taxes must be based on J
the valuation of 1901 Instead of the pres
ent valuation. According to the opinion
of the attorney general, the county clerk
Is required to extend the levy each year
on the valuation of the preceding year.
This Is required In conformity with sec
tion "I of chapter lxxvlll. the road statuta.
This amendment was added to Uie statute
three days after the revenue law was
signed, April 4, and therefore, according
to the attorney general, the latter provi
sion expresses the desire of the legislature
and stands as law.
Colby la Tired at Dlgalag
Former Adjutant General Colby was In
Lincoln this morning conferring with Gen
eral Culver and Governor Mickey regarding
his latest alleged shortage, and he ex
pressed himself as ' being rather Ured of
digging up. The latest shortage was re
ported by Examiner Wiggins to be Iltl
for premiums . on warrants and 1124 or
thereabouts on a deal at Wllber. General
Colby denied that he had received back
any of the money he had sent to the sol
diers there and as for the premiums on
warrants he expressed a disinclination to
pay that, saying that it had been the
custom of hts predecessors and of other
state officers and until others put it back
h would not. However, he said he would
consult other lawyers In the matter be
fore making a flat refusal to put It bock.
Mickey Goes t Beatrice.
Governor Mickey went to Beatrice this
morning to take a look at the state Insti
tution there and to get a personal line
on its management and needs;
laser Beets Pay.
The State Industrial school at Kearney
has done well this season in the sugar
beet Industry and as a result of cultivat
ing twenty-five acres of beets the Inmates
of the school have made, net, 11.12!. This
Information was received by Governor
Mlcke? this morning In a statement from
Henry 8. Ferrar of the school's contract
with the American Sugar Beet company.
The school raised on the twenty-five acres
630.779 pounds of beets, which sold for fl.
184.26, or Just $44.88 an acre. The expenses
were, for seed, $G. and for rent of a drill,
$6.25. Mr. Ferrer said titers would be no
other expenses unless the labor of the in
mates and the cost of hauling was consid
ered, but that on other farm products these
were not Included. He recommended to
the governor that more acres be planted
next season.
Magssln Result of Disagreement.
According to authentic Information re
ceived here yesterday by a close personal
friend of Tom Watson, late candidate for
president, the magaxine he Intends to pub
lish in New York will be a hummer In
its particular line. In It will be discussed
economic and Industrial problems and
questions, but Its primary object will be to
further divorce the Wall street element of
the democratic party from the south and
west section, with a view of forcing a
union of the populists and these elements
of the democratic party to work In the fu
ture. A tentative agreement had been
reached by Mr. Watson and W. R. Hearst
before the end of the campaign whereby
the late candidate was to become a mem
ber of the editorial staff of the Hearst
papers. When the time came for the two
to make the final contract, however, .some
thing happened which caused Watson to
decline under any circumstances to write
for the Hearst papers, and he ''then de
cided to start his magaxine.
Have a Good Steer..
' Last winter the agricultural school at the
university attracted 4 great deal of atten
tion by winning the grund championship
for steers exhibited at the International

and better than the champion steer of last
year. If he should win any Important place
In the show he will be brought back to the
university and be used In the Judging class

TECUMSEH. Neb., Nov. 30. (Special
Telegram.) The ecclesiastical trial tn the
Methodist church here Is In progress and

ing of clergymen. Members of the official
board of the church bring very serious
charges against Rev. F. P. Blakemore.
now of Weeping Water, but formerly pastor
of the church here.
The charges are falsifying, gross ob
scenity, profane language. Improper ad
vance toward certain women and sollclta
tlon of a local physician for malpractice.
The charges are signed by the following
members of the church: A. N. Dafoe,
steward and district steward; Frank Dafoe,
Sunday school superintendent; Washington
Robb, steward; C. Graff, steward: Thomas
Goodman, class leader; Noble White, presi
dent of the Kp worth league; Charles
Buerstow, steward; Dr. C. W. Graff, stew
ard, and Dr. Malcomb, steward.
The presiding elder of this district acting
as Judge Is Rev. G. I. AVrlght of Nebraska
City; Leander Morrison of Sterling Is clerk.
A Jury composed of the following clergymen
Is hearing the evidence: Rev. Duke
Slavens of Palmyra, Rev. G. M. Jones of
Brock, Rev. W. T. Cllne of Falls City. Rev.
E. L. Wolfe of Elk Creek, Rev. John Cal
vert of Humboldt and Rev. B. W. Marsh
of Auburn.
Many Witnesses Are Heard,
The prosecution Is represented by Rev.
J. W. Boott of Nebraska City, Rev. W. M.
Balch of Trinity church, Lincoln, and Dr.
S. A. Bright, presiding elder of the Junc
tion City district In Kansas. The defense
Is represented by Rev. J. H. Presson of
Milford, and Rev. C. M. Shepperd of
Pawnee City.
The session Is behind closed doors but It
Is known that several witnesses for the
prosecution have been examined. In fact
those testifying as to at least half of the
charges have been disposed ot so far as
the prosecution is concerned.
But one wltnes is admitted to the church
at a time. The gentlemen who signed the
charges and the Judge Jury and counsel
aside from the accused and his wife and
one friend are the only ones who are hear
ing the trial.
' Rev. A. B. Whltmer, at one time pastor
here, as well as the superintendent of
schools of Clay Center, Kan., Is here as a
witness. Rev. Mr. Blackmore resided at
Clay Center befor coming to this city.
The prosecution seems confident It can
make a case while the defense Is very
confident Rev. Mr. Blackmore will be
cleared. At best It Is a condition In local
religious affairs very much to be deplored.
The entire day and evening has been de
voted to the examination of witnesses. A
part of the afternoon and evening was
taken up In examining witnesses for the de
fense. There are practically no new devel
opmenta. It is believed that the argument
will be token up tomorrow morning and
that the case will be finished by night It
Is the general opinion that an Immediate
verdict will be given by the committee of
clergymen which composes the Jury.

of the men held his team, while two
climbed Into the wagon and went through
Mr. Flnck's pockets, but they obtained
nothing but sum weight tickets on corn
which he was delivering and a pocketbook.
As Mr. Flnck had been delivering grain,
the robbers evidently thought that they
could make a haul, but were disappointed.
After searching all his pockets the high
wayman left with the promise ot stopping
Flnck on his way horn this evening. This
is the second holdup Inside of two weeks
near Sheltnn, the first being a farmer's
wife, and they were also disappointed In

tee will at once be formed.

One of Nature's Secrets.
A PROBLEM HITHERTO UNSOLVED.
SOME time ago the country was
liorritind at the report of a most
bnital murder. A prominent
western manufacturer was ac
cused of killing hia wife and destroying
her body with strong chemicnls which
dissolved every trace of her frame. A
great question arose during the trial as
to whether any chemicals could be
found strong enough to completely ob
literate a human body, and many ex
perts were called in to testify. Our
minds stand appalled at the idea of so
powerful an agent, but we forget that
within our own bodies there occurs
naturally a fluid which is capable of
breaking down and reducing to a solu
tion almost every organic substance.
The power of the juice of the stomach
to digest our food is most wonderful
when we consider the great variety of
materials which we daily put into it.
A healthy stomach will digest easily
enough food to keep the body strong
and vigorous. It seems remarkable
that so powerful an agent as the gas
tric juice could be contained in an
animal tiwuie without destroying it,
and the problem of what prevents the
stomach from being dirotolved in its
own secretions has never been satisfac
torily solved. If a portion of another
stomach (as when tripe is eaten) is taken
into a stomach it is promiitly attacked,
and we sometimes find that the orgnn
itself does yield in spot, causing
the distressing and dangerous disease
known as "gastric ulcer." This can
never happen, however, unless the vi
tality of the organ is weakened at that
one spot. One of the first signs of
stomach trouble is a loss of appetite,
or possibly the appetite becomes raven
ous, and soon the patient beginB to
lose flesh whicli shows that the stomach
should be toned up with a harmless
tonic which will increase the secretions
of the digestive tract. A tonic made
up of medicinal herbs which will stim
ulate the stomach into greater activity
-nd increase the secretions of the phos
phates from the food a remedy which
will do this is one which has stood the
test of public approval for nearly forty
years, containing no alcohol or nar
cotic. We refer to Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. It can be given to
the umallest child with perfect frr
dom. If the blood is impure, if pim
ples, boils, headaches occnr, if th
stomach is weak first eradicate tha
poisous from the blood.
" I was all run down, wry nervous,
and suffered terribly from stomach
trouble, which the doctors pronounced
indigestion," writes Mrs. Vm. Morev,
of Marshall, Mich. " I doctored for a
year without permanent relirf. Wag
advised bv a friend to try Dr. Ficrce'g
Golden Medical Discovery. nd after
the use of nine bottles I was enred. I
can heartily recommend the 'Golden
Medical Discovery ' to anv one suffer
ing from stomach troubfe. My hus
band was greatly benelited by ite use." '
AS IMITATION OF SATIRK'S METHOD
of restoring waste of tissue and Im
poverishment of the blood and nervous
force is used when you take an altera
tive extract of herbs and roots, without
the use of alcohol, like Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. This veget
able medicine coaxes the digestive func
tions and helps in the assimilation of
food, or rather taken from the food just
the nutriment the blood require.
While using it one should get all on
can of God's sunlight and air, and prac
tice a mild breathing exercise each day.
This "Medical Discovery" gives no
false stimulation, because it does no!
contain alcohol or a narcotic. It helps
digestion and the assimilation of such
elemeut in the food as are required
for the blood. Instead of a cod liver
oil, against which the already sensitive
stomach will declare open rebellion,
this tonic has a pacifying action upon
the sensitive storrmch ana gives to the
blood the food elements the! tisenes re
quire. It maintains one's nutrition by
enabling him to eat, retain, digest and
assimilate nutritions food. It over
comes gastric irritability and symptoms
of indigestion, and, in this way, fever,
night-stvents, headaches, etc., are done
away with.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery purifies the blood and entirely
eradicates the poisons that breed and
feed disease. It thus cures scrofula.
ecrema, erysipelas, boils, pimples, and
other eruptions that mar and scar the
skin. Pure blood is essential to good
health. The weak, run-down, debili
tated condition which so many people
experience is commonly the effect of
impure blood. Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery increases the activity
of the blood-making- glands, and en
riches the body with an aDunaani sup
ply of pure, rich blood.
THE EXPLANATION OF TH MYfTllT"
of healthful living in not difficult. Dr. ,
R. V. Pierce has prepared a Wonderful
book, which he calls the "Common
Sense Medical Adviser," and this he
sends free to any one who sends him,
at Buffalo, N. Y., 31 one-cent stamps,
to pay cost of -mailing only. No one
can afford to be without this great
Doctor-book of over a thousand pages,
in which you will find a full description
