The epidemic of mad dous here
.-till seeins to be on the increase,
as yesterday Chief of Police
Uainey was called out to Heisel's
mill to make way with a djr that
was evidently sulToring from
what is known as the "dumb"
rabies, and he was shot without
delay. 'The ' dog-, it is claimed
belonged nut in the -country and
came into town with his owner,
and while at the mill his strange
actions were noticed and the
iiniru.il was locked up for safe
keeping until the disease de

d..ud of it being the rabies.
The authorities are anxious to

and will shoot any of the dogs

THE WATER COMPANY
COMPLAINS OF HAVING
THEIR LANTERNS STOLEN
From Wednesday's Daily.
The PlattMnoutln Water com
pany reports that parties in the
city h-ive'at different limes taken
the-signal : lanterns which they
use to place on thes treets where
there is an open trench in order
to protect the public, and would
like to locate any person doing
this, as they will be prosecuted to
the full extent of the law. These
lanterns serve to warn the public
and those driving along the
roads and streets that there is an
open trench there and that they
can avoid running into them and
endangering their lives, and when
a person deliberately takes one of
these lanterns away he is not
only committing a theft, but is
also making it possible for some
one to fall into the trenches and
perhaps receive serious injuries,
and the 'company will deal. quite
severely with them if they are
found out.

Herb, Remedies"
It is well known that in all
parts of the world different herbs
were always gathered and in
fusions made of them for the
treatment of diseases. It was, in
the first place, the country peo
ple who knew these herbs and
who were pretty skillful in ad-
minstering. them. ' The medical
science examined all these herbs
and .tried to combine them in
order to make remedies more ef
fective. Such a remedy is Trin
ers American Elixir of Bitter
Wine, which consists of herbs
and red wines. These herbs have
been found very useful: in con
stipation, weakness of the stom
ach ami the intestines and loss of
bodily strength. Red wine is a
natural tonic. At drug stores.

THE NEED OF
PUBL1G SCHOOLS
A Statement From One Who Is
Qualified to Speak on
School Matters.
From Wednesday's Dally.
fn voting for, or against the
bond issue next Tuesday there are
a number of things which should
be considered. Your attention
has been called to . the crowded
condition in our schools. This
alone would justify the voting of
bonds. Uut there are other rea
sons why this proposition should
carry.
Our schools are not up-to-date
along the line of manual training
and domestic science. To in
troduce these things demands
more room, patrons are askin
for these courses. We are ten
years behind the times in this re
sneet as compared with other
towns and cities of our own state
Following are idaces having such
courses:' '. Fairbury. Wahoo
Stanton, Alma, (Irand Island, Su
perior, Sidney, York, Blair, Hart
ington, Wayne, Pierce, Alliance
Ashland, Seward, Beatrice, Hast
imrs. Kearney. Lexington. Ban
croft, Columbus, Crete, Iloldre
Cambridge, Pawnee City, Flor
ence. Lincoln. Omaha, South
Omaha, Falls City and other
Of course these things cos
money and the reason com
munities all over the United
States have such advantages is
because they willingly tax them
selves and because they want the
youth of their schools to receive
a more practical and helpfu
education. We often hear the
question, "Why is the school tak
ing up these lines of industria
training?" The answer is founci
when we turn' to the history of
education in our own land. It is
not as some think, viz. that the
school authorities alone desire
such things, but rather do they
find their place in the courses by
means of forces from without the
school. Turn to the history of
the introduction of music
physiology, art, manual training
domestic science, penmanship
etc., into our public school work
and we lind that a bunch of Bos
ton business men and the mas
sachusetts legislature were re
sponsible for drawing finding its
place. The various turning so
cities, athletic clubs and the Y
M. and Y W. C. A's are responsi
ble for physical training. Our
various state legislatures, rep
resenting the yvill of the people
made it compulsory that physio
logy and hygiene be taught in the
schools. The change in our in
dustrial life with tne advent o
the factory has put an end to our
time-honored apprentice system
The increased demands for ef
llcient and skilled labor, the trend
toward specialization in all de
partments of work, and many
other forces have made the
schools lake up some sort of in
dustrial training.
A letter was sent to school otll-
cials in 27 of the 30 cities namec
above, the two Omaha's and Lin
coln being omitted, and from ;
list of some 22 questions askei
we give you two: (il " nat is
the attitude of citizens . towan
such courses? (2) "Do such
courses lend to noiu hoys ami
girls in school?" In answer to the
first every school reported that
the people favored such work. In
answering the second question 81
per cent said that such courses
held boys and girls in school; 7
per cent said that such courses
did not hold pupils t in school;
while 12 per cent were undecided,
not haying had the work Ion
enouga to judge.
The question has been asked as
to how Plait smouth compares
with other cities of our stale on
bonded indebtedness.. Comparing
a list of 17 cities, ranging in size
from less than 2,500 to 10,000
mpulalion, - our city : ocmpares
quite favorably. Our bonded in-
debtedness

These
cities range
from '.$66,000. to
$425,000; -5 per cent of these
towns have a larger indebtedness
than we have, 'while 23 per cent
lave about the: same. These 17
cities voted school bonds as fol-
ows : One in 100 ', one in 1J08,
one in l'JiU: lour in uiree
in 1012, and Stiven in 1013.

people of Nebraska are awaken

DANGEROUS LOOKING
KNIFE IS FOUND ON THE
f;l. P. DEPOT PLATFORM
From Tuesday's Dally.
This morning' when Andy Ilar
wick, the mail carrier, and Frank
Uoetel, who drives the hack for
Q. K. Parmele, were at thq Mis
souri Pacilic depot waiting for
the early morning train for the
north they made the discovery 'of
a very long and vicious appearing
knife that was lying on the plat
form, where it had' apparently
dropped from the person of some
hoboe. The knife was a most
dangerous weapon and anyone
carrying it would certainly not
stop at murder to accomplish
their ends. It was what is gen
erallly known as a butcher knife
and had been ground to a tine
point by the owner. The night
operator at the depot states that
during the night there was a
great deal of noise out on the
south end of the platform at dif
ferent times, but there was no
sign of anyone to be seen, but as
soon as the operator was Migaged
at his duties the noise would be
resumed and was doubtless made
by a gang of "hoes" waiting for
an opportunity to beat their way
out on a train, and from the ap
pearance of the weapon found it
would be a good thing if they had
