of postal authorities is that the gov

not less than five deaf pupils if it
Efl qualified to teach them. Thus far
:'a school district of the city of Lin

of teaching. It is estimated there
will be nineteen pupils at Lincoln.
The law allows $150 a pupil, but this
has been found to be too small to
pay all expenses, and the district is
required to pay the balance. The
legislature two years ago deemed it
best from an economical standpoint
to have deaf children taught in pub

GET AT THE CAU
Many Plattsmouth Folks are Show
ing How to Avoid Need
less Suffering.
There's nothing more annoying
than kidney weakness or inability to
properly control the kidney secre
tions. N'ight and day alike, the suf
ferer is tormented and what with
the burning and scalding, the attend
ant backache, headache and dizzi
ness, lite is indeed a burden. Doan's
Pills a stimulant diuretic to the
kidneys have brought peace and
comfort to many Plattsmouth people.
Profit by this Plattsmouth resident's
experience:
II. J. Kaufman, mechanic, 615 S.
6th street, says: "Sharp pains seized
me across my back until I was un
able to work for several days. Every
move 1 made sent a knife-like pain
through my back. My back was so
weak, it felt unsupported and I could
hardly turn over iu bed. The kidney
secretions were dark and they scald
ed in passage. I used Doan's Pills
and they cured the entire trouble."
Mr. Kaufman is only one of many
Plattsmouth people who have grate
fully endorsed Doan's Pills. If your
back aches if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy ask distinctly for DOAN'S
PILLS, the same that Air. Kaufman
had the remedy backed by home
testimony. 60 cents at all dealers.

BURL KIRK AGAIN
REQUESTS PAROLE
FROM STATE PEN
Man who Shot and Killed Omaha
Officer Has Served Six Years;
Mathews Again Applies
Lincoln. Nov. 2S. Burl C. Kirk,
convicted in 1918 on a charge of
murder in the second degree as a
result of the death of Detective Frank
Rooney. and sentenced to serve 20
years in the penitentiary, has once
again made application for parole.
Kirk was sentenced after a sensa
tional trial in district court of Doug
las county.
In 1920. but 18 months after Kirk
had entered the prison. Governor Mc -Kelvie
was called from Lincoln on
business. The lieutenant governor
was also away and the president pro
tern of the senate became acting gov
ernor. This was B. K. Bushee. re
cently fined for a violation of the
.-'.ate bank guarantee law.
Freed Once.
Bushee listened to the appeal of
Kirk and granted him a parole. Mr.
An ties, then secretary of the publb
welfare department, happened to go
to the penitentiary just as Kirk was
motoring away in company with a
woman.
Antles set up a cry and an investi
gation was begun. As a result Kirk
was ordered returned to the prison.
He was found in Des Moines. Ia.
Kirk, prison officials say. has been
a model prisoner during his stay at
the penitentiary. He has served six
y ars and three months of his sen
tence. The pardon board is to meet De
cember 9 to consider the petitions of
the prisone.-s.
Lincoln. Nov. 28. Willard V.
Mathews, former president of the
Pioneer State bank of Omaha, has
appealed to the state hoard of par
dons for si parol from prison.
Ah hough Mathews has been in
prison for two and one-half years,
technically he has never really taken
his position as a convict. He has
I sen assigned to duty in the warden's
ofli'c e and few of the visitors at the
penitentiary who meet him recognize
him as a prisoner.
TV.ice previously Mathews has ap
pealed for a pardon without success.

REFUND OF FRENCH
WAR DEBT IS SAID
TO BE IMMINENT
Secretary Mellon Calls Meeting
American Commission to Dis
cuss Results of Parley.
Washington. Nov. 28. The
French debt to the United States will
be discussed by the American debt
commission at a meeting here De
cember 1. Members of the connnis'
sion will be informed at that time of
results of a series of conferences be
tween Secretary Mellon and Ambas
sador Jusserand looking to a pos
sible basis for refunding the French
government's obligations, which is
the second largest amount loaned by
the United States to its associates
during the world war.
Meetings between Mellon and
ambassador have been entirely
formal. Talks, however, are
the
pected to lead to tangible' results
though the meeting of the commis
sion which was called today by Sec
retary Mellon, probably w ill no more
than go over the situation as it is
known by the treasury head.
In some quartets, it was indicated,
there is a belief that a policy toward
the French debt might grow out of
the meeting of the commission and
that a definite statement to that
government of what the United
States can and cannot do might be
forthcoming.
Mellon Maintains Silence
Official comment was refused on
these reports, however, and Mr.
Medlon withheld information as to
the business to be taken up at the
session further than to say that the
commission will discuss the situa
tion as it now stands. M. Jusserand
will leave for Pari.- January (1 to re
tire from the diplomatic service of
his government.
Government circles concerned
with gs?al policies received the in
formation that steps were being tak
en by France looking to a refunding
settlement with undisguised satisfac
tion. To them it meant another
move in the direction of cutting off
the great public debt, much of which
was built up through borrowings
from the American people with
which to advance funds to the allied
powers.
There was no definite word here
today as to whether Edward N. Hur
ley, of Chicago, a member of the
commission, would pres.s his plan for
funding the French debt. That pro
gram was drawn up by Mr. Hurley
after many conferences with French
of'icials last summer and presented
to Secretary Mellon on Mr. Hurley's
return from abroad in June. Noth
ing has come of it thus far. and oth
er members of the commission, in
cluding Secretary Mellon, have de
clined to discus it. The treasury
tonight had not been advised wheth
er Mr. Hurley would be present at
nondays meeting. ;
The Hurley plan provided for an
annual lump payment by France to
be applied on interest and principal
and would permit use of h If of the
annual payment in the purchase of
French industrial securities.

WINTER WHEAT IN

Prospects Excellent For a Recoid
Yield Throughout Southwest
ern Section of State.
Imperial, Not; - . -Chase county,
and in fact all the southwestern part
of Nebraska, has ihe finest prospects
for the winter wheat crop it has
ever had and the best to be found
in the state. Many thousand ae res of
wheat were sown in all the south
western counties, and with a rain
fall of from three to Biz inches in
the past GO days, the wheat in every
tie.ld now covers the ground like a
vast green carpet, and there is plenty
of moisture in the ground to insure
its going through the winter in fine
shape. With favorable conditions in
the- spring this section of the state
will harvest the greatest wheat crop
in its history.

There will not be as many cattle
fed this winter as last, but nearly
every farmer has a drove of thrifty

Gene-ral business e-onditions in
Chase county are good. Many farm
ers who were in financial straits fol

are either paying out in full or are
reducing their indebtedness to a
point where it is no longer burden

land are home people who are famil

IN DEFENSE OF
GAS PURCHASE
If Any Irregularities Occur In Trans
action It Is When the Stuff Is
Is Sold to General Public.
Attorney General Spillman. on
behalf of Auditor Marsh, filed with
the supreme court Friday a brief
in defense of his issuance of war
rants to pay for the gasoline sold j
at retail thru the state station in,
the highway department material
yards, challenged by Harry Fischer j
of Omaha. Fischer lost in the lower!
court.
The auditor says that the proof
shows that none of the department's
equipment and material fund, out of
which payments for the gasoline
bought are made, is raised by taxa
tion, the appropriation expressly I
stating that it is made up of receipts'
of the department and Is a revolv
ing fund. The state uses much of th
gasoline bought, and whenever any
is sold at retail to the consuming
public the proceeds are at once turn
ed back into the funel, so that it is
at no time depleted by such sales.
It is the contention of the de-j
fendant that the purchase of the
gasoline was lawful even if he con-!
cedes for the sake of argument what
he does not admit as a fact, that
the state has no right to engage in
the sale of gasoline at retail In
other words, that the irregularity, if
any. occurs when the gasoline is sold
at retail and not when it is pur
chased. The state has the undoubted
right to buy gasoline for its own use,
and the purchase being regular and
lawful when made does not become
unlawful merely because the state
may afterwards divert the article
purchased to an unlawful use.
The purchase being lawful, it is
argued that the seller is entitled
to his compensation in any event,
and the vouchers come to the aud-
itor in the regular way. with the
approval of the governor, the fi
nance and public works secretaries
as lawful claims against the equip
ment and material fund.
The auditor also attacks the right
of Fischer as a taxpayer to bring
the suit, since he has not shown that
any financial injury has occured to
him. In fact, he adds, none can fol
low because the fund is not raised by
levying taxes, is not depleted by the
sales, but is in fact increased there
by. As a taxpayer, in common with

FOR THE LOVE OF BOY OF 19
Berlin. Nov. 27. A woman of r4
is on tri;:l in Vienna on the charge
of murdering a woman of 67 out of

The trial reveals one of the

The prosecutor charges the young
