FIFTY LIVES.
MUCH PROPERTY IS ALSO LOST
Wrecks Eight Blocks in Texas Town—
Goliad is Laid Waste and San An
tonio Suffers a Heavy Loss—Other
Sections Suffer.
_.
HOUSTON, Tex., May 13.—Reports
from the town of Goliad tell of the
los3 of probably 150 lives and the total
destruction of eight blocks of business
houses by a tornado which struck that
town yesterday afternoon. Within
the storm's path, which wa3 not over
250 yards wide, scarcely a vestige of
building was left intact or the life of
a single human Bpared.
Early reports placed the loss of life
at a smaller figure so that, while it
is believed the later reports are more
correct, it is not possible now to make
positive statements.
Those who have visited the secnes
of the disaster describe them as ap
palling. The destruction of property,
besides that of life, probably will
reach in the millions.
The storm appears to have wrought
tremendous damage in other Texas
towns, some of which are said also to
have been completely or partially de
stroyed.
Some reports received by wire in
dicate that the northern or western
portion of the town of Goliad has been
swept away by a tornado and that
from fifty to 100 people have been
killed.

sided and made the opening address
at a largely attended and enthusiastic
mass meeting at the Lafayette opera

of talk was present conditions in Ire
land. The senator was given a hearty
reception as were also Messrs. Red
mond and Devlin, the Irish members
of parliament, who have been touring
this country for some time in behalf
of Ireland’s cause. The sentiments of
Senator Hoar were clearly in favor of
Ireland. Those present, he said, had
gathered to give a hospitable welcome
to two eminent members of the great
legislative body of a sister country,
a body illustrious some times in the
history of liberty (but some times,
he was sorry to say, in the history of
tyranny) for more than 800 years.

LOCAL OPTION LAND LEASING.
What Land Agent Says Stockmen of
Western Nebraska Want.
OMAHA, Neb., May 19—“The all
absorbing topic of discussion among
thousands of stockmen in Nebraska,
Colorado, Wyoming and Idaho now is
the question of leasing the public
lands," said C. E. Wantland, who is
the general agent of the Union Paci
fic Land company at Denver, and who
came to Omaha Thursday. “The
change of sentiment on this subject
has been something marvelous in its
extent and suddenness. Stockmen,
and hundreds of them, who only yes
terday were fighting bitterly every
proposition faintly contemplating the
leasing of these lands, are now actu
ally advocating such a movement most
enthusiastically.
“Just now the problem is how to
let those stockmen who are now fa
vorable to the leasing scheme do so,
while the ones who still hold out may
not be affected. For instance, in west
ern Nebraska the stockmen are all
won over and are demanding this
method of handling the ranges. There
arc about 10,000,000 acres of public
lands out there, and the stockmen
wish to lease them. About half of
this territory can be irrigated. Now
it the western Nebraska people, whose
conditions are different from the con
ditions in other states, can agree upon
a fair plan for range control in their
state, to protect their interests from
destruction, why not allow them to
have it?
We think we have this plan now
in the local option Bcheme. When I
proposed this two years ago it met
with a storm of protest. Now the
stockmen are asking for its establish
ment in many places. It is a county
local option land leasing plan, which
is to be applied to any county when
ever the secretary of the interior is
satisfied that a majority of the stock
men in that county wish it to go into
effect.”
THREE PERISH IN FLAMES.
Father, Mother and Child Lost in a
Conflagration.
LAUREL, Neb., May ID.—Fire
broke out in the agricultural imple
ment house of John Jacobson at about
3 o'clock in the morning and consum
ed the house and bowling alley belong
ing to Mr. Carlquist. Three persons
perished in the fire and two were in
jured. The dead are: John Jacobson,
owner of the implement house; Mrs.
John Jacobson and a child of the Ja
cobsons.
Injured: Thomas Snyder, burned
about face and hands; child of the
Jacobsons, burned about face and
bands.
Mr. Jacobson occupied the rooms on
the second floor of his building as a
dwelling, his family consisting of him
self, wife and two children. Mr. Ja
cobson had in his employ a man nam
ed Will Snyder, who made his home
with Mr. Jacobson.
Mr. Snyder escaped from the burn
ing building with Jacobson’s older
child. Each was badly burned. Mr.
Jacobson, wife and youngest child
were apparently suffocated and lost
their lives in the burning building.
Fear of Grasshoppers.
HARRISBURG, Neb., May 19.—Ban
ner county has been thoroughly soak
ed during the past week, rains having
fallen in portions of the county every
day. The farmers and ranchmen are
jubilant over the abundance of grass,
which has never been better at this
time of the year, and over the pros
pects for an abundant crop. Much
concern is felt that the grasshoppers
arc going to do damage this year.
Sack of Counterfeit Money.
GRAND ISLAND, Neb., May 19
While a coal car was being switched
to the sugar factory, a workman found
a stock in the car, which apparently

stamp. The car is being traced with
the end to secure, if possible, a clue
as to the origin of the money.

Difficult to Invest Funds.
LINCOLN, Neb., May 19.—Treas
urer Stuefer says he still finds it diffi
cult to obtain bonds for the permanent
educational funds of the state, even
when taken on a 3 per cent basis.
Notwithstanding the decline in inter
est rates, he declares, the demand for
securities seems to keep on increas
ing. Mr. Stuefer, acting under au
thority given by the board of educa
tional lands and funds, purchased $50,
000 of Hall county court house bonds.
SUGAR BEET TESTS.
Nebraska Experiment Stations Tells
of Results.
LINCOLN, Neb., May 17.—The Ne
braska experiment station has just is
sued bulletin number 73, which gives
the results of a number of experi
ments in the production of sugar
beets. The bulletin may be obtained
free of cost by residents of the state
upon writing to the agricultural ex
periment station, Lincoln, Neb.
The following is a digest of the
bulletin:
The sugar beet experiments report
ed in bulletin No. 73 were conducted
during the season of 1901, upon the
farm of the Standard Cattle company
at Ames, Dodge county, Nebraska.
These experiments included tests of
varieties, tests of fertilizers, distance
of planting, time of planting, meth
ods of cultivation, and the treatment
of sugar beet diseases.
A test of thirty-seven varieties un
der similar conditions showed a wide
variation in the total amount of su
gar produced per acre, the original
Klein Wanzlebener occupying first
place.
A comparison of light and heavy
soils for sugar beet production show
ed a considerably higher sugar con
tent in the beets grown upon the
heavy soil.
Slight increases in the yield, sugar
content and purity of beets were pro
duced by the use of commercial fer
tilizers, but their use did not seem to
be profitable upon the land where the
tests were made. Of the different
classes of fertilizers used the phos
phate gave the best results.
A comparison of different depths of
cultivating sugar beets was in favor
of about four to five inches as com
pared with six-inch or two to three
inch cultivation.
The most satisfactory distance of
planting was found to be eighteen
inches between rows and eight inches
between plants in the rows.
BIG FUND FOR EDUCATION.
Coming Apportionment to the Various
Counties to Be Record Breaker.
LINCOLN, Neb., May 17.—The
semi-annual apportionment of state
funds for the public schools of Ne
braska, which will be certified by the
state treasurer to the superintendent
of public instruction on May 19, will
be one of the largest ever made by
the state. Forty counties have thus
far failed to report the funds for the
month, but the other fifty have shown
an increase over the corresponding
period last year of approximately $8,
000.
“We look for an apportionment that
will give us about $1 for each person
of school age,’ said Superintendent
Fowler. “I well remember the time
when both semi-annual apportion
ments together made not over $1.50
for each person of school age, but this
year we will have two-thirds of the
amount in one apportionment. The
school population of the state is 377,
000. The apportionment in December
last was $316,893 and in the May pre
ceding was $350,853. So far as I
know the greatest apportionment ever
made by the state gave only $1.02 per
each person of school age. We may
fall a little behind our expectations
this time, but it is doubtful.”
Increased Acreage of Beets.
GRAND ISLAND, Neb., May 17.—The
American Beet Sugar company an
nounces that the acreage for the local
factory has gone over the 5,000 mark,
breaking the record of all previous
years in the history of the industry
and assuring a long campaign this
fall and winter. The work of remod
eling the factory for the improved ma
chinery is rapidly being pushed.
Motor Vehicles for Beatrice.
BEATRICE, Neb., May 17.—Mr. A.
J. Wright, representing the Chicago
Motor Vehicle company, was before
the city council and made a proposi
tion for the running of motor vehicles
in Beatrice. He wants a ten-year
franchise and the right to operate his
cars on the old street car tracks. In
dications are that the franchise will
be granted.
A Boy Drowned.
HOOPER. Neb., May 17.—Luther
Reninger, the 9-year-old son of Frank
Reninger, a farmer living three miles
east of Hooper, was drowned in the
Cutoff lake near his home. The body
was recovered.
Returns to the department of agri
culture show 4,868,000 out of 27,103,000
acres of wheat have been abandoned
over the country.
Mr. Mallalieu Resigns.
LINCOLN, Neb., May 17.—John T.
Mallalieu has tendered his resignation
as superintendent of the state reform
school for boys at Kearney, to take
effect June 15. In a letter filed in the
governor’s office Mr. Mallalieu ex
plains that he has accepted the posi
tion of business manager of the Ar
gus Mining company of Idaho Springs,
Colo., and will begin his new duties
as soon as relieved from the reform
school.

Laid Up for Sixteen Weeks.
St. Jacobs Oil and Vogeler’s Cur
ative Compound Cured Him.
“ I have been a great sufferer from Rheu
matism for many years. I was laid up with
Rheumatic Fever for nine weeks in 1894, and
again for sixteen (16) weeks in 1896. I tried
many medicines I saw advertised and others
I was recommended; finally I was induced
to take Vogeler’s Curative Compound, which
did me more good than all other medicines.
In fact, I feel tjuite a different man since I
have been taking the Compound. All my
neighbors and friends are quite surprised to
see me about and looking so well. I can
only say that Vogeler’s Curative Compound
taken internally and by using St. Jacobs Oil
outwardly acted like magic in my case. I
had been taking medicines for years without
obtaining benefit, but Vogeler’s has practi
cally cured me. I have recommended Vog
eler’s Curative Compound to a lot of my
acquaintances, and they tell me that it has
worked wonders.

your Vogeler’s Curative Compound and St.
Jacobs Oil, I remain, gentlemen,
