Fuller of the United States Supreme court died from heart failure at his summer home In Sorrento at six o'clock Monday morning The death of the chief magistrate was unexpected, as he had been In fairly good health lately, and there had been no premonitory symptoms of any kind of trouble. Sunday he at tended church as usual, and when he retired at night he was to all appear ances In his customary health. Death came about six o'clock Mon day morning. His daughter. Mrs. Na thaniel Francis, and Rev. James E. Freeman, who was a guest of Justice Fuller's at his Sorrento cottage, “Main Staywere with the jurist when he died. The funeral services will be held at Sorrento and the interment will be at Chicago. For many years the chief Justice had spent his summers at Sorrento, a summer colony located on French man s bay. five miles from Bar Har bor. . _ ax A Great American. To Chief Justice Fuller fell the honor of third rank for length of serv ice as presiding Justice In the highest tribunal of the American government. For :r years he was chief Justice of the Supreme court of the United Stales. Chief Justice Marshall pre sided over the court lbr 34 years and Chief Justice Taney for ?8 years. With the future rests the determina tion of his rank among the eight chief Justices of history for ability and accomplishments. Before Grover Cleveland sent his name to the senate on April 30. 188S. for confirmation as chief justice, he was practically unknown except to members of the legal profession In Msine. where he was born on Febru ary 11. 1833. he had been known as a well-behaved, rathev scholarly lad He had gone to Bowdoin college, and. Incidentally, there won most of the prixes for elocution. He had gone down to Harvard law school for one year His Great Argument. From 1556 to 1SSS he llTed to Chi cago but attracted little attention out aide hi* immediate circle of Mends and associate* at the bar until be undertook the defense of Bishop Cheney on a charge of heresy. His knowledge of ecclesiastical history and procedure astonished those who conducted the ease, and his argument of the cause of the bishop before the supreme court of HI tools is referred to still as a forensic effort seldom If eTer surpassed to that court. He was a delegate to the national rorventims of the Democratic party in 1864. 1872. 1876 and 1880 The nomination of Mr Fuller, then fifty-five years of age. was followed by f. memorable contest to the senate. ! The Judiciary committee, with tta j Republican majority, to which the nomination was seat April SO, held up the appointment until July SO. Then the committee reported It to tha senate "without recommendation." For three hours that body debated ■ In executive session wlietfcvr to cob ®rm or reject the nomination. Tha attack on Mr. Fuller was led by Sena tors Edmonds. Evans and Stewart. , Senators Cuilom and Far we 11 defend ed him. The repeats that he had been a "copperhead" during the Civil war ' and that he did not possess the re quisite ability as a lawyer were gone ; over. Nn Great Victory. Finally, by a rote of 41 to SO. bla nomination was confirmed. Since that day the entire court, as it then existed has passed away with the single exception of Justice Har~ i lan. Of those prominent in the fight j over his confirmation only Senator 1 Cullom remains, and President CJere ' land, who thus honored the Illinois I lawyer, has thus gone to his grave. I Throughout his service Chief Jus , tice Fuller was noted for the dignity with which he filled the position. He preserved that manner on the bench j or off. Although small of stature, not more than five feet seven inches, his wealth of silvery hair and classic features made him a commanding figure wher | ever he appeared. Chief Justice Puller leaves an In delible stamp on the law* of the coun try. Among his most famous opinions are the following: Hie Famous Decisions. The income tax decision, in which the income tax law was held to be un ' constitutional. The Danbury hat case, by whirl, la ; bor unions were held to be amenable to the Sherman anti trust law.

PATIENTS NEED MORE SPACE I Governor Shallenberger Says He Will Endeavor to Relieve the Situation as Much as He Can. Nebraska faces a serious problem In the matter of caring for insane j patients who fall upon the mercy of j the state. A few days ago Robert Smith, clerk of the district court and 1 a member of the Douglas County In sanity commission, wrote to Gover nor Shallenberger. calling to his air tention the inadequacy of the Doug las County hospital and the lack of accommodations for the insane. A reply was received Thursday morn ing. The governor states that all state institutions are crowded to tneir capacity and that the increas ing number of insane persons for whom the state must provide is de manding. more and more, that further provision be made. A paragraph from the governor s letter says: ■‘Our state institutions for the in sane are very much overcrowded at present. There has been one build ing completed at Norfolk, which has somewhat relieved the situation there and another is being completed. I un derstand. at Hastings. Everyone of our institutions are crowded beyond measure, and it seems as though the state is confronted with the fact that these unfortunate people are con stantly increasing in numbers that must be cared for by the state. 1 ■will endeavor at one* to relieve the situation as much as I can.** , _ -C* No Pardon on Fourth. The governor did not issue a par don under the Fourth of July pardon act to Kawkins of Frontier county. Hawkins was the only prisoner elig ible to pardon under the Fourth of July law. He is serving a life sen tence for the murder of an old man named Jensen who was tortured and mutilated, supposedly in an attempt to compel him to tell where he had money hidden He was finally killed and his body was thrown In an aban doned well. The warden of the penitentiary applied for Hawkins' pardon, but the governor also re ceived telegrams of pro'eet. Jerry Hanks to Give Balt. Jerry J. Hanks of Dawson county, sentenced to seven years for a crim inal assault upon Florence Weaver, has appealed to the supreme court and the court has suspended sentence and permitted the defendant to give bail in the sum of $2,500. George Crister of Harlan county who. with young Heddendorf. was charged with complicity in the murder of William C. Dillon, has appealed to the su preme court, alleging that when his case came up for trial in Franklin county, the case was dismissed with out prejudice to a new action, but that he Is still held in Jail. State Institutions* Expenses. At the July meeting of the state board of public lands and buildings vouchers for state institutions were allowed amounting to $54,975. which Is about the amount usually expend ed for maintenance, salaries and wages and repairs Land Commis sioner Cowles who keeps tab on the Touchers allowed finds that the June expenditures of state institutions comprise $29,435 for maintenance $2,455.05 applied from institution cash funds for maintenance. $1T. 465.55 for salaries and wages and $4,591.75 for repairs Hartigan Issues Order.

The following bulletin to Nebraska dairymen baa been issued by the de partment of dairy husbandry of the state university; The present hot. dry season is prov ing to be a mast disastrous one for keeping up the milk flow and it will be necessary to use extreme measures to prevent a severe loss. Reports have been received from various parts of the state telling of dry pastures and a severe decrease is milk production. This is a most seri ous condition when wo consider the month of June as the best in the year for pasture* and volume of milk pro duced. As most of the cows freshen in the spring, they should be at this season of the year at the height of their pro duction. If they are allowed to shrink now they are no: apt to he profitable fall and winter producers. It must be understood that a cow must produce a certain amount of milk and fat during the year in order to prove a profit to her keeper. Thousands of cows are made unprof itable through lack of food at critical seasons of the year, and this is cer tainly a most critical season. The first cutting of alfalfa has now been harvested and milch cows should have access to some of this new hay. They should also be given a small grain ration, which could be given in amounts according to the production of the cow As the flies are getting very bad. it is well to use once or twice a day some fly mixture which can be put on with a hand sprayer The milker will find h s work more agreeable if he would put his cows in a dark stable while they are bring milked. If this is impos sible he can use a gtmnysack blan ket. which, thrown over the animal during milking time, will prevent switching and discomfort to the cow and milker. The main Quality far profitable production may be ex pressed by the simple term, “eew comfort;* in other words, when a cow is comfortable she can then do her best. Should she be tormented with flies, forced to eat short, unpalat able grass or suffer hunger, it is im possible for her to make her mc-s; profitable production We are quite likely to get some good rains later on in the season, which will revive the pastures and give the animals more succulent feed, bat until such a condition is had the feeding process must go on. Few cow keepers realise the great differ ence in profit between cows giving a I normal flow and those reduced to a scant flow. Briefly, this may be ex plained in the following way; A l.CkW-pound cow requires each day about twelve pounds of alfalfa hay to sustain her. This is termed the "maintenance" part of the ration If this cow is producing thirty pounds of 3 per cent. milk, she will need about forty pounds of nlfalfn hay per day to make the milk. This added to the twelve pounds for main tenance would mean she must receive fifty-two pounds of hay. The same I figures in terms of grass would mean j she must eat thirty-seven pounds of grass for maintenance and sixty-six pounds of grass for production, or a total requirement to keep up bcdy and milk flow of 103 pounds of grass, which under the present conditions, is a physical impossibility. ^ - Saunders' Name Filed.

TALK WILL BE ON POLITICS No Chasm to Bridge, as There is No Break Between the Former Presi dent and TafL Beverly. Mass.—Beverly was about to tuck itself away to sleep Sunday c-ffct after a dull and sultry Sunday, when William Loeb, jr„ right-hand man of Theodore Roosevelt, motored into town. There had been no warn ing of his coming and his arrival caused a flutter of excitement, only second to that on the day that Mr. Loeb's former chief in the Whit* House visited President Taft at Bur gess Point. Mr. Loeb will see the president Monday afternoon and it was frankly admitted that politics would be the subject of their interview. It will be the first politics, by the way. that Mr. Taft has talked since Mr. Roosevelt was at Beverly The president start ed in on a ten days' vacation last week but there are indications that the period of rest is ended and a number of important conferences will mark the coming seven days' period. Then Mr. Taft is going to sail away "down east" for a tea days cruise along the shores of Maine. Recent incidents at Oyster Bay. Mr Loeb declared, bad nothing to do with his visit. In fact, he saM that Mr. Roosevelt probably knew nothing of his coming to Beverly It developed later that Mr. Loeb was sent for by Secretary Norton. 1 with the knowledge of President TafL ”1 came to talk over the general political situation with the president.” said Mr Loeb when pressed for aa explanation as te bis visit. “As a re> rwsentative of the colonel?” waa asked * >o; i come as the cm friend and loyal supporter of President Thfi. rhiring all of Mr. Toft's tern Col lector Loeb has been a frequent caller at the White House in Washington, and his presence there, coupled with tne general manifestations of friend ' ship between him and the president, have done much to contradict the stories of strained relations between Mr. Taft and Colonel Roosevelt. Dur 1 lag his candidacy for the republican i nomination and hin campaign for the presidency Mr. Taft had no mom ar dent advocate than Mr. Loeh. Mr Loeb was asked by one of hla interviewers if there was a possibility that his visit had something to dc with bridging a "chasm" between Beverly and Oyster Bay. "There is no chasm." he replied with emphasis. "There never has l«eer. a break of any sort and relations could not be any more pleasant. Mr. Roosevelt told me he had *a perfectly bully" time when he visited the presi dent. The president and Colonel Roosevelt are acting as independent Americans, each along his own lines. - but to the same end." * f *’ THE POSTAL DEFICIT. ~ More Than Ten Millions Cut Out of it in First Nine Months.
