Judges of the evidence for and against
professors of the University of Ne
braska, charged with lacking proper
Americanism, members of the uni
irersity's board of regents tonight be
?an deliberation on the question as
to what action is to be taken in the
cases of the accused instructors.
The hearing of the charges made
by the Sta,te Council of Defense, was
brought to a close today ofter two
weeks of almost continuous sessions,
in which the board of regents oc
cupied the unique position of both
jury and judges. Witnesses in and
without the university were called
upon to testify. The professors them
selves took the stand in denial that
they were lacking in their support of
the' government in prosecuting the
war.
. Charges of Council.
The council's charges were that
some, of the university's instructors
to encourage among those who comeJ one: The morning session open.
fK.;.. ;fl - ,;th; ,nj,vih!1at 9 o'clock. President Harris will
out the university, a spirit of inactiv
ity, indifference and opposition to
wards this war and an undesirable
n'ew with respect to the several
fundamental questions inseparable
from the war."
- Attorney William F. Gurley, counsel
or the defense body, in making his
closing statement to the regents to
day, demanded that the following pro
fessors be dismissed from further
service at the university:
H. K. Wolfe, C. E. Persinger, G.
W .A. Luckey, L. E. Aylsworth, L.
B. Tuckerrhan, Henry Blumberg, H.
W. Caldwell and Erwin Hopt.
Attorneys for a number of the pro
fessors on the other hand asked that
the accused men be exonerated from
all suspicion of lack of aggressive
support to the government.
Although the name of Dr. Paul H.
Grummann was among those remain
ing for decision by the board at the
close of the testimony, counsel for
the state council did not include Pro
fessor, Grummann in his demand for
the dropping of the other eight pro
fessors. Professor Grummann's case
rested wholly on the construction of
words, Attorney Gurley said, and he
was willing to let the board pass on
the matter without comment from
counsel..

MRS. WILSON HAD
SOFFERED SO SHE
WAS DESPONDENT
Troubles Begin to Disappear
When She Starts Taking
Tanlac.
"I am just so glad to see how per
fectly my health is being restored
that I feel like telling everybody
about Tanlac," said Mrs. Amelia Belle
Wilson, who resides at 1101 North
29th street, recently.
"My health commenced to fail
about a year ago," continued Mrs.
Wilson, "and since then I have suf
fered in so many ways that I had be
come despondent. There was such a
numbness in my arms from my el
bows to the tips of my fingers that I
couldn't knit or crochet. My back
hurt me dreadfully and my knees and
ankles pained my so I could hardly
walk. My nerves were so shattered
that I was almost frantic. I slept
very little and would get up in the
mornings tired and wornout. I suf
fered and worried until I lost thirteen"
pounds in weight and was almost com
that I somehow felt that it might help
pletely broken down.
"I heard so much about Tanlac
me, and it has made a wonderful dif
ference in my feelings already. My
appetite is splendid now and I can eat
anything I want and my nerves are
in much better condition. I usually
sleep well at night and I am satisfied
from the way my clothes fit that I

Injunction Suit Against
Loch's "Gardens? Dismissed
, the injunction suit against Pete Loch
and other owners to restrain them
from operating'the Orpheum Gardens

district court Tuesday morning.
On motion of H. H. Claiborne.
representing George Eserlin, plaintiff J-and Farn'am streets; northeast cor-
son. 1 can walk now without diffi
culty and be about my housework. I
have good reason to believe, from
what Tonlac hasdone for me tip to
this time, that I will soon be restored
entirely and I am glad to tell others
what is is that's giving me back my
health. My husband took Tanlac for
a while, too, and says he now feels
fine all the time."
Here is another instance of the re
markable reconstructive powers of
Tanlac. Mrs. Wilson is only one of
many in Omaha and vicinity who have
taken it with the same wonderful re
sults. Tanlac has proved of great
benefit to Mrs. Wilson because it
contains certain medicinal properties
which enrich the blood and pro
motes a healthy appetite for nour
ishing food, thus helping to build
up health and strength in the
natural way. Tanlac has been very
successful in overcoming nervous
ness and sleeplessness, not from a
quieting effect on the nerves, for it
has no such effect, but by strength
ening the nerves and body and bring
ing back the normal state of health
through its efept on the appetite and
nutrition of the body.
Tanlac is sold in Omaha by Sher
man & McConnell Drug Co., corner
Sixteenth and Dodge streets; Six
