again, and for six long years I have suf
fered more misery and agony liiao I can
tell. It was worse than dealh. My
husband spent hundreds of dollar for
physicians' prescriptions awl treatment
without anvil. Finally we moved to
Bosque county, our present home, and
one day I hapaiied to see an advertise
ment of Chamberlain's Colic Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy with a testimonial of
a man who had been cured by It. The
case was so similar to my own (hat I
concluded to try tbe remedy. The result
was wonderful, I could hardly realise
that I was well sgaio, or believe it could
be so after having suffered so long, but
that one bottle of medicine, costing but a
few cents, cured ma." For sal aj All

The report is out that the Junior Nor

I wish to say this is untrue. Tlie Normal
has not closed and is progressing nicely.
I am informed that ooe house was quar
antined but it proved not to be small-pox
but only a scare. This shows the board
of health is extremely cautious to keep
all contagious deseases down and I think
no teacher need be afraid to attend the
Normal. Institute time is approaching

The third week of the normal shows
an enrollment of one hundred twenty
seven. Studeots are all working tiara,
unci expressions Of satisfaction are general
and the teachers of norUi-westero Nebr
aska are certainly fortunate in being
able to attend such a school, ami those
who are not in attendance are wiseiug a
great opportunity.
loo much cannot be said in favor of
the maiiogeuienl of the school. Prof.
Kurtz has everything going like clock
work. The man behind the olllce desk
has proven hirbseif to be "The right man
in the right place." The students found
t hard at first to be punctual, having
been accustomed lo enter classes at any
time while in attendance at the summer
institutes, but all seeing the advantages
of being on time, fell inte the new way
july.
Those enrolled in the model school are
deriving much bench t from Uie up-to-date
methods presented by Miss Schlee. This
work, if carried into the various school
rooms, will be of great benefit.
The students in the department of
literature with Prof. Martin as teacher
are doing good work. Much attention is
given to drill in reeling, tone color,
visualization, effects, and the study of
poetry for thought.
The classes iu mathematics and physics
under Prof. Philiott are making great
advancement, Ute enthusiasm of the
teaciier creating a lively interest in the
pupils.
The class in agriculture is one of the
largest, and under the instruction of
Prof. McCoy one of the most interesting
in the school. Last Saturday, the teach
er gave a scientific lecture on this sub
ject at the school house, which was very
instructive.
It is hard to tell which of the instruct

in their line of work.

STRANGE PLIGHT
OF A DAKOTAN.
WHERE DOES HK LIVE?
He la a Schawl Officer In Nebraska and
Dakota-
Is he a resident of South Dakota or
of Nebraska?" quered IVputy Superin
tendent McBrien of the attorney general
Friday morning as he handed the attorney
letter from the county superintendent
of public instruction for Sioux county,
in reference to Uie legal status of the
school director of school district No. 88,
Sioux county. The predicament of the
school director, whose name is not given
n the letter, demonstrates that a man
can get himself into a legal tangle which
will bother the supreme courts of two
slates, with very little effort. The at
torney general and his assistants have
used up several tabs of paper and a doz
en pencils and it is still undetermined
whether the director is a resident of So.
Dakota or of Nebraska.
HOUSE IS ON THE LINE.
Sioux county is ooe of the northern
counties of the state und borders on the
state line between Nebraska and South
Dakota. School district No. 88 of Sioux
county also borders on the line and the
school directors owns a farm which is
divided by the line. It is a large and
extensive farm and Mr. Director lives in
a house on the farm, which issituated or,
the state line. The line runs through
the bed room occupied by the director.
Struck by the possibility of the thing the
director was placed his bed on the line
so that he sleeps in both Nebraska and
South Dakota und this is what causes
the trouble. His farm is situated in
school district No. 38 in Nebraska and
school district No, 52 in South Dakota.
He has several children and sends some
of them to the Nebraska school house
and others to the South Dakota school
house.
HE IS ON TWO BOARDS.
As the director is one of the big land
owners and tax payers in the Nebraska
school district his neighbors decided to
elect him school director of the district.
Having the same qualifications in South
Dskota his neighbors in that slate also
honored him with an election to the
school directorship of the South Dakota
school district. The two elections oc
curred about the same time and Mr. Di
rector has officiated in both states ful
some tnne with marked ability and to the
satisfaction of his neighbors. Recently
the county superintendent of Sioux Co.
learned the stale of uffairs and informed
the director that he must resign one of
the directorships The director could not
see it that way, as he is fully qualified lo
hold a school office in either South Da
kota or Nebraska. The 8uM-nnlendent
has communicated with Superintendent

Mr. Fowler has referred the matter to that
attorney general . The same course of
procedure has occurred or is no$ occurr
ing in South Dakota.
A series of legal questions arise oves
the matter, and they will probably Itave
lo be decided by the courts of both.
states, if th director decides to hold oiv
to both offices. He is a man wlio does
not take much interest in politics and?
consequently has not voted at tlie general
elections in either state, but he is the
"whole thing" when it comes to school
affairs. He cannot be held guilty of tlie,
violation of the general election laws.
THE LEGAL TANGLE,
The school election laws of South Ua-i.
kota specify that the man voter must be
a resident of the United States one year,,
of the state six months, of the county
three months and of the district on pre
cinct thirty days. The director- heir al
these qualifications and a few more.
The school laws of Nebraska provide,,
that the voter must be 21 years of age.,
have resided in the district forty daysv,
owning real or personal property subject
to assessment, or the parent of children t
ef school age. The director also has ul('
of these qualifications and a few to spare,.
According to the requirements of either
state he is a resident of Uiit stale. He
could not be prosecuted for voting at
two different school elections, as he was
qualified to vote in South Dakota and
consequently his vote there was legal,
South Dskota could not prosecute him
until he had violated tier election law,
Nebraska cannot prosecute him if he is ft.
jitiZn of the state, for he has not voted
twice in Nebraska and has the necessary
qualifications to vote once. If either state
wus to arrest him he would on trial dV
cUre himself a citisen of that state ami
would then not tie convicted. He could
not he rearrested und tried in Nebraska,
being a"Nehraska resident and tlie con
stitution of the United Stales providing,
that n person ciiniiol lie twice placed ot
trial for the same ofTense.
The only possible way for Mr. Puvctor -to
undo the legal tangle and give Uie at
torneys general of HouUi jMkulu him
Nebraska a rest is to die or euoye to
Missouri.
