' Y -—^ Rule to Favor Sc liters. J H. Presson. commandant sf the Nebraska Soldiers and Sailors’ boms ap Mi.icrd, under appointment fron €R>vernor Sheldon, and Who also •rsed In the same capacity undei •e ndmictetration of Governor Mickey, declared in a statement that the old ■ekfiers and the pnblie generally should understand that the recent resolution fixing terms of admisst. n to the soldiers' homes Is more favorable *e the old soldiers than any actio* ever •fore taken by state officers. The ehange was made for the sole pur pose of giving to the eld soldiers ad vpntares which they never before had. Br. Presson’s statement is as follows: "The critic'.am of the setion of the psesent state board resulted from a misunderstanding of its dties, and what it has done. Under the original management a soldier drawing more than $1 a month could not be admitted. Haler the rule was changed te re oofre, as a condition ef admlssien. pay ment of all of the pension In exeess t|12 a month. Ia the interests of soldiers the present state beard has main a rule by which those draw tug a monthly pension ef more than $12 may have the benefit of the home by paying to the institution a percentage ft income up to $30 a month. "The ?tata board eould not depart ken the provisions ef the statute, and tfce liberal course taken can enly be justified under that provision of the tew which authorizes the state board »o make rules, ft may not be gener ally known, but it is a faet that the statute under which the home was created and under which it is now maintained, extends its free benefits only to those who are dependent upon public or private charity. "The h^me was first controlled by a visiting beard composed of soldiers and the wives of soldiers. This board adopted a rule to the effect that sol diers drawing a pension of $12 s month •bnM not be admitted under the terms •f the statute sinee they were not subjects of publie or private charity. Interest on County Deposits. The fast report made by the county treasury examiner* shows a remark able difference in the amount of monev eollected by the various treasurers as interest on county deposits. This mat ter Is now being agitated in some of the counties and In Instances it has teen ma-’e an incident of the cam paign. This report shows tha^ the treasury of Douglas county was exam ined January 7, 1904, and on January S. 1906. During the time between tbe:e was collected interest on the county deposits $7,472.61. The balance on the first date waa $168,291.95 and on the teat date $243,713.86. Lancaster county was examined January 4, 1906. and De cember 31, 1906. The interest collect ed on deposits during this period be tween the two dates waa $2,129.16. Tbe balance on hand on the first date was $163,195.65 and on the last date $209, 776.01. Richardson county fell down below these counties in collecting in terest. That countv was examined January l. 19h5. and January 8, 1906, with a balance the first date of $62, $73.06 and on the last date $57,954.46. The interest collected was only $490.50. Bert Richardson county came in ahead •f Webster., Otoe. York. Gosper. Burt and others. These counties failed to eel left any interest an deposits. Otoe eounty was examined January 4, 1906, and March 18. 1907, shewing a balance qn the day of th first examination of 000,346.14 and on the late date of $84. 8*3.13. Sample Ballot.

A number of prosecutions have been begun in B'air because of the failure of gjocerymen to comply with the pro visions of the new food laws; accord ing to information received by Food Commissioner Johnson. He has also received notice of the prosecution of Albert H. Lyons of Fairbnry on the charge of selling unbranded butter. Creamery Men Try to Settle. The centralized creamery men of the state appeared before the railroad commissioners in an effort to secure an order compelling the express com Sfmies and railroads to give them bet ter service. They told a story of de lays, poor service at terminals, insuffi cient employes to handle the cream and detailed with much exactness the * conditions less profitable and most an noying. It developed that greatest fault with found with the terminal fa cilities at the Union station in Omaha. James Nevel of Albion, president of the State Liquor Dealers’ association, and a saloonkeeper of LAnooln, called an Food Commissioner Johnson to dis cuss the matter at branding packages of liquor. Johnson has ruled that when Honor is poured out of a large bottle and delivered to a consumer In a small bottle, the small bottle must be labelled. The law relating to the branding of packages is not being «n faroed, so Mr. Johnson says, though be has not yet Bet the date when pres et Dttana win begin. Wm Change Speed Limit The Nebraska railroad commission derided to modify the Missouri Pv elfio speed limit order promulgated an the reeeaendatiao ef Commission er Williams. Henceforth on certain stretches ef the Missouri Pacific track la Nebraska, the engineer may pull the throttle to a 45-®lle an hour notch. This was brought about by the plea of the enginers and conductors of the read, who showed the first order was unjust to them and to the road. Their earning* are based on mileage, and the reduction ef running speed to 25 miles an hear, tt was said, would cut their wages te a point below cost of living. They said some of the track be tween Kansas and Omaha is fit for a M-ralle clip, while at other places 10 miles as hour is all tt will bear. AD who appeared before the com mission were men who had been in the employ of the road for more than twenty years, and they assured the commissioners they were not misrep resenting conditions at all in their re guesL They said records would show not a single passenger was Injured on the Missouri Pacific read in the state and that, as compared with ether reads, they were noted for exercising greatest ears in operation. It has been their eustora to watch for bad plaees in the track and to warn trains they passed ef the same. Befeet in Kenisen Trial. Is there a technical defect in the in structions given the jury tn the trial at Ernest Kenisen? Attorneys in the supreme court al lege that this is the case. Kenisen was sentenced m twenty-four years in prison for the murder of Sam D. Cox, a newspaper men. On the technical mistake alleged in the Kenisen trial, Lucas Hayes recent ly seeured a reversal. The deputy at* teraey general !s preparing a brief in defense ef the instrirtlo-s ef Judge Crimes. At his trie! rleaison was eenteneed to twenty-four years in the state penitentiary, although the jury recommended a life sentence. The murder took place on the streets of Minatare. The two men had an alter ratien, which came to blows. Keni son deliberately drew his pistol from his hip pocket and fired at Cox. who elosed in on him, receiving the sec ond ball through the forearm in such a manner as to fracture the ulna bone. Kenisen then threw his right arm evef the task of the newspaper man and fired again, the bullet passing down through his shoulder into his bacK bone. • The trouble arose over the anxiety of Kenisen to have a saloon in his hotel, which was opposed by Cox in his paper. Cox was nine years older than his slayer and fifteen ponnds lighter, hut he put up a game fight until he received the fatal bullet. Officers' Pay Held Up. Officers of the Third Nebraska regi ment in the Spanish-Ame: ican war. headed by Colonel William J. Bryan and including Governor George L. Sheldon, who was a company captain, mast furnish proof of the dates of their service before the government will pay them for the time that elapsed from the actual date of en rollment la the state organization un til they were formally mustered Into the service of the United States. There is no dispute over the question of servirg and money due, the pri vates in the regiment having already been paid, but the claims of the offi cers are held up until the date of transfer eaa be distinctly ascertained in individual cases. The amounts are not large enough to warrant much ef fort oa the part of the officers, and Colonel Bryan has ignored the matter entirely. Adjutant General Sehwarx took the matter up. and hopes to ar rive at an early settlement with the government. Complaint Prom North Platte. According to Attorney W. V. Hoag Isnd of North Platte, traffic oa the Union Pacific is congested and tha passenger trains are seriously handi capped in getting over the line. ilr. Hoagland declared that his town is paying the Union Pacific about $40,000 annually in freight, and he predict* that the time is ripe for a large amount of this going to the Burling ton as soon as It gets into the city. The Burlington has already spent $125,000 in purchasing a right of way through North Platte and the arrange raents are all made for building the line. He believes that it is a mistako to think the Burlington would estab lish its division at Btgnell. the new town which is being platted by Ed Birnell about nine miles east of North Platte. The Burlington could not af ford to offer such an Insult to a city of 5.200 inhabitants, he believes. Ex-Governor Mickey Recuperating. Bx-Governor J. H. Mickey is now living quietly at his old home at Os ceola. He left Lincoln in very poor health, but since moving to Osceola has spent a great deal of time out doors, visiting and looking after farm property and has regained his vigor. For failing to stamp net weights ea meat packages, County Attorney F. M. Tyrrell of Lancaster county has filed complaints under the pare food law against the Cudahy Packing company. Swift & Company and Armor Packing company. Food Commissioner J. W. Johnson is backing the prosecutions. He wrote to County Attorney English of Douglas county notifying him of the need of action under the law and the response given was a desire to know whether the attorney general of Ne- i braska had passed upon the case. The people of Rulo, the town of Pulo bridge fame, have applied to the railway commission to get the Bur lington to stop a train there occasion ally so the traveling public can get out of town after the noon hour. Four trains pass through that town from St. Joseph dally after noon, but they wnly whistle and the people are not fast enough to board them. The traveling man who stays In Rulo after noon can not get out until the next booming, so the complaint nays. It was liberally signed by business men of Rulo.

Everything Bad. A prominent planter recently had occasion to visit some of his holdings in southern Arkansas. The land was situated several miles from a railroad, and it was necessary to finish the journey in a buggy. So he took a friend with him and started out. After traversing several miles of sparsely settled country, they came npon a farmer plowing corn on the side of a hill. The planter, wishing to appear civil to his neighbors, j stepped his horse and yelled at the | man, who came to the fence, mopping I ! his Lice with.a red bandana. i "Good morning." "Mornin’. mister!" "Ton live here, I suppose?” “Yep." "HeVs crops?" "Fair to middlin'." "That's a had hill you're plowing.” ‘T know it. Bad hoss, pullin’ th’ plow, bad plow, bad everything.” "Why, you talk like you were the poorest man in Arkansas." laughed the ! planter. “I ain't, though," was the response, as the young fellow smiled good naturedly. ‘‘Another feller owns half 1 o’ this crop."

Protecting Hit Magazines. "While waiting at the doctor’s the other day, I picked up a magazine from his table to pass the time,” said the man who observes things. *‘AU through the book, on nearly every o'her page was stamped his name. ; and ft so irritated me that I spoke | to him about it. “ Tf I didn’t fill that magazine up With my name,’ he said, ‘it wouldn't last ten minutes in this place. Some body would be sure to carry it away. Even as it is. I lose one everv little while.”’ _ Had Tried It. "You ought to wear glasses. They'll save your eves,” said his friend. “Nuttin' in it,” contemptuously an swered Bill de Bruiser. “I fought* dev would meself wunst, an' I put on a pair when I heerd a big chap wuz lay in’ fur me. It’s agin de law, ye know, to hit a man wid glasses on ’im. Well, sir. de big chap happened along. He reached over, lifted dem glasses off me face, an’ den he bunged me eyes up, good an' proper.” TAKE THEM OUT Or Feed Them Food They Can Study On. When a student begins to break ' down from lack of the right kind of j food, there are only two thingi to do; j either take him out of school or feed j him properly on food that will rebuild j the brain and nerve cells. That food ; is Grape-Nuts. A boy writes from Jamestown, N. Y., J saying: “A short time ago I got into j a bad condition from overstudy, but \ Mother having heard about Grape Nuts food began to feed me on it. It satisfied my hunger better than any other food, and the results were mar velous I got fleshy like a good fel low. My usual morning headaches disappeared, and I fonnd I could study for a long period without feeling the effects of it “My face was pale and thin, but is now round and has considerable color. After I had been using Grape-Nuts for about two months I felt like a new boy altogether. J have gained greatly in strength as well as flesh, and it is a pleasure to study now That I am not bothered with my head. I passed all of my examinations with a reason ably good percentage, extra good in some of them, and It is Grape-Nuts that has saved me from a year’s delay in entering college. “Father and mother have both been Improved-by the use of Grape-Nuts.

Recent Attempts to Tabulate the Beasts That Perish. Every now and then some natural* 1st endeavors to make an approximate numerical count of known animal species. This kind of attempt is sure ly not without interest, but it must be acknowledged that its results are very uncertain. We are far from knowing all species, and there is yet a delight ful prospeet ahead for those who love systematic zoology and for zoologists who bestow mutual honors by giving each other’s names to some animal hitherto unknown. As Nurmann remarked to a recent meeting of naturalists at the museum, to which he presented his “Catalogues Msmmalium.” the species of rodents known in 1880 were only 970 in num ber: now they are 1,900. The num ber has thus, at least, doubled in 27 years. The number of living species of this creature now known is about 1,500. divided among 160 genera. This family is the most numerous of the class of mammalia.—Wissen fur Alle. BABY IN TERRIBLE STATE. Awful Humor Eating Away Face— Body a Mass of Sores—Cutlcura Cures in Two Weeks. 'My little daughter broke out all over her body with a humor, and we used everything recommended, but without results. I called in three doc tors, but she continued to grow worse. Her bedy was a mass of sores, and her little fate was being eaten away. Her j ears looked as if they would drop off. j Neighbors advised me to get Cuticura ! Soap and Ointment, and before I had used half of the cake of Soap and box of Ointment the sores had all healed, and my little one's face and body were as clear as a new-born babe’s.

Kramer came ail the way from Yuma, Cal., to marry a girl he had never seen. The bride was Miss Flora Weise, a pretty young woman of Tasewell county. The groom wrote to his aunt here, Mrs. Patterson, to put him in com munication with a girl who would make him a good wife, as he was lone ly on his ranch In Colorado. Mrs. Patterson recommended Miss Weise, a neighbor's daughter, and correspond ence was begun. The girl was taken with the ro mance of the affair and when photo graphs were exchanged and proved satisfactory a proposal quickly fol lowed. An acceptance was written and then Kramer came east to claim his bride. The marriage was cele brated the day after his arrival and the eon pie departed immediately aft erward for Ynma.—Denver News.

In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually neces sary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric Is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wear ing quality of the goods.
