Resignation of a Regent.
Lincoln dispatch : The resignation
of henry D. Estabrook as one of the
six regents of the State university was
received at the governors office today.
It is accompanied by the request that
the resignation take effect on its acceptance -
ceptance by the governor. This will
be upon the appointment of Mr. Fsta-
brook's successor. The latter's term
would not have expired until January ,
1900. This morning the board of Regents -
gents held a meeting at the tlnivcristy
building. Except Regent Hadley of
Custer county , who was detained at
home by illness , all were present. Regent -
gent elect C. H. Merrill of Lincoln and
11. L. Gould of Ogalalla were installed
to membership of the board. Regent
Estabrook formally announced his intention -
tention of removing to Chicago and consequent -
sequent resignation from the board.
The board then adopted resolutions
highly commendatory of Regent Esta-
brook and Regent Merrill for their
great zeal and interest manifested in
the work of the university.
In the Hands of Ills Friends.
Washington dispatch : Es-Senator
Manderson of Nebraska , in an interview -
view , admitted that he was in the
hands of his friends as a candidate for
the presidential nomination before the
republican convention at St. Louis
For months Mr. Manderson has been
the recipient of 'letters from all parts
of the country urging him to enter the
contest. The insistence , he said , seemed -
ed to become more persistent with his
expressions of disinclination and before
leaving Nebraska he stated that he
would make no further' opposition , but
would remain passive.
General Manderson said tonight that
the various marks of confidence and
manifestations of endorsement which
would be apparent by the presentation -
tion of his name at St Louis are most
grateful and acceptable. He has been
greatly influenced by the kindly expressions -
pressions of the eastern press , particularly -
larly Pennsylvania , where he was
born , and Ohio , where his early manhood -
hood was spent. Under the eircunt
stances he can only stand and wait.
The New Irrigation Law.
As the time approaches when the
new district irrigation law becomes effective -
fective by the organization of districts
and the voting on this proposition a
number of questions of general interest -
est to people contemplating such action -
tion arc being submitted to the state
officers One of these is in relation to
who are eligible voters One such inquirer -
quirer wants to know if one living on a
homestead which he has filed uponbut
on which lie has not made final proof ,
is a voter. The language of the act
itself on the subject of the eligibility of
voters says : 'No person shall be entitled -
titled to vote at any election held under -
der the provisions of this act unless he
shall be a qualified elector- and the
owner of real estate in such district. "
There seems to have been the question
tion raised of whether the land can be
taxed before the government has parted -
ed with the title and the tax levied

Three Irrigation Decisions.
Lincoln dispatch : The State board
of Irrigation filed three opinions today.
It found in favor of Andrew Carson ,
who appealed as contestant against the
McCoolt Irrigating and Water company
of Red Willow county. The latter
company , comprising a large number
of people , intervened in the case before -
fore the board and claimed under
riparian commonlawprocedure , butthe
board decided against it , and dismissed
the intervention as immaterial to the
case. The claim of R P. James of
Chase county was dismissed. Tie had
sought to make appropriation of water
from Frenchman river for mill purposes -
poses , but the board found his application -
tion deficient in detail. The claim of
the Republican River Irrigation company -
pany as against J. 'R. Phelan , E. F.
Highland , A. P. Benne and It. Williams
was also dismissed on the ground that
the contestant had not complied with
the law of 1589. This was a case from
Dundy county and involved rights to
water from the Republican river.
How to Get Sugar Factories.
As the beet-raising and sugar-making
has proven a success throughout the
state of Nebraska , writes a correspondent -
ent to the State Journal , and most '
everybody seems to feel that a lasting
success will be made of it , especially
since that new process came in by
which they claim the cost of making u
sugar is greatly reduced , and if the
plan is carried out to build factories in
different parts of the state , allow mete
to propose a plan by which all those
arc made safe who might interest
themselves in this industry , and this is
as follows : Suppose it takes $25,000 to I
erect such a factory as they say , it will
cover the cost ready to make sugar.
Now then , if it take that amount , or
whatever it may take , let twenty-
five men each investing $1,000 , or i
whatever sum it may take , so that no
Luau shall have a greater share than
the other , which will bring everystoek- t
older on an even footing with the
other , and no one has more power than
the other , car in other words , freeze the j
smaller stockholders out , which is generally -
erally the case where one or more have
the controlling power. It will also be
seen by this that in this way , such establishments - t
tablishments can be run and ought to
b e run independently from any monopoly -
ely or trust As there is no danger of
over-stocking the market with this product -
duct , any man who has any money to
; pare is willing to invest in a safe busi-
ness running under such management t
where everyone is equal with the other.

Suffering From Insomnia -
nia Lately.
FOSTORIA , 0. , Feb. _ 4.-Ex-Congress-
man Michael li. IIarter , committed
suicide at the Monte of S. Knapp , in
this city this morning. IVhen found
life was extinct and he had been dead
several hours. The fatal shot was
fired from a revolver , the bullet entering -
tering the right temple , penetrating
the brain. He was lying on the bed
with the revolver clutched in his left
hand. No cause is kncwn for the act ,
further than he has been suffering
with insomnia forsome time past.
On the bureau in his room was a
letter addressed to his wife in Philadelphia -
delphia , and just outside the room
was found a package of letters ad.
dressed to business associates. None
of these have been opened as yet.
brr. Harter is largely interested in a
number of industries and represented
the Fourteenth Ohio district in Congress -
gress , but for the last two years has
been residing in Philadelphia.
Michael D. IIarter was born in Canton -
ton , Ohio , in 1140. lie belonged to a
wealthy and influential family. his
father was a banker and was a man of
very large means. Mr. llarter was
reared a Republican but departed
from the political faith of his father
on the issue of protccion. ; Iris
mother , who died only a few years
ago , was a woman of much intellectual -
lectual force and sympathized with
her distinguished son on the tariff
issue. Although Mr. IIarter was
an extensive manufacturer , lie was an
ardent free trader. lie was also
a sound money man and was a consistent -
sistent opponent of the silver fallacy.
He and ex-Governor McKinley were
closely associated as young men and
were warm friends. Mr. IIarter was
an earnest and active member of the
Lutheran church-the faith of his
parents , Ile lived in Mansfield , Ohio ,
and was an intimate companion of
Senator Sherman. To all outtvarj
seeming no man in the community in
which he dwelt had more to live for
or could look forward to a brighter
future ,

stet to-day to listen to the reading of
Washington's faretvelt address liy
Senator Frye , the president pro tern
of the Senate. This was in accordance
with a resolution previously introduced -
duced by Senator Hoar. The vice
president occupied the seat of the presiding -
siding officer and Mr. Frye took his
position behind the secretary's desk ,
thus facing the entire Senate. He
read from an old print volume in large

voice so that the patriotic and well
ronnded sentences were heard by all

seats in the gallery for the fami'.ies of
senators were taken. The vice presi-
dent's was entirely filled and the pres-
dent's was also occupied. Many pre-
seued themselves for admissin to
the popular galleries long before the
opening of the doors. Close attention
was given to the reading by senators
and others , rendering the ceremony 1
thoroughly impressive and none the
ess so on account of the simplicity
and the absence of ostentation by
witch it was marked.

the address Mr. Gray of Delaware
novel that the thanks of the Senate
be tendered to Mr. Frye for the adi i
nimble manner in which he had read t

CINCD1 ATI , Feb. 20.-Two movning
papers publish a statement made to
them by Miss May Smith of Louisville
who is acquainted with the accused
murderers , Walling and Jackson. She
says she was in Cincinnati January 14
and took supper witlf Jackson at Hei-
tier's restaurant. Jackson told her
that Will Wood at Greencastle , Ind. ,
had got a girl in trouble , and that
\rrood was going to send the girl here
and lie ( Jackson ) would put her out of
the way. Miss Smith says she can-
tioned Jackson of the clanger of dis-
corery in such an enterprise. Ire said
he was too smart to be discovered.

wrote her saying that he had disposed
of the , girl-meaning Pearl Bryan

performed it was performed at that
time. Mr. Laster also declared that

AN OLU LACY FINDS THE i.
' . e .OURCE OF V1TALlTY. I
A Reporter's Interesting Intorvrnw With
'
a Lady of Seventy-tWO YCarer '
I 'Who Tells a Marvelous
Story.
I from the union Port Jervis , N :
f But a short time ago , In a distant
part of the country , we heard of n
cure by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink l
Pills , which seemed almost inarvelouv , ;
and more recently another substantial { ' . i
evidence of their value reached our , -
ears. Being of an inquiring turn of
jttst how a i { !
mind , and tvlshln „ to know t
much there was In the story , a repor ter t
I was sent to interview the person paid
to be thus benefited. If the narrattVC
it had reached our cars was true , ;
it was only simple justice to I't it be
I known-If it proved untrue , it : would be
l well to know it. ' r t
The nerson alluded to above as having
been thus greatly- benefited by the use c ' -
of Pink Pills is Mrs. Jane } Iotalen , of
1Iainesvllle , N. J. , a pleasant hamlet in -
Sussex County , about fifteen miles from ) j (
t had no (11111-
this ofllce. The reporter d
softy in finding Dirs. Hotalen. after a F
few preliminary remarks in explatuttoo : ! e
i of the call , she was asked if she had 1
any objection to giving Us the details
of the cage atnd } tow she catn : to tr ,
this now famous retiredY. -
I "Not at all. said she. "If my exile-
, rience can be of any good to others , I
am sure they are welcome to it-it can
! do me no harm. " 1
"When were you taken sick anti what. .
I was the nature of the malady ? " was ,
asked. ,
"lt ryas about two years ago. The
trouble was rheumatc ( in character-
sciatica , they called it-and it was very .
n ainful Indeed. The difficultY began in
nmy hip and extended the whole length
of the lhnb , crippling me completely. , d ;
I suffered IntenselY from ft , and tte or-
Binary treatment gave me not the
slightest alleviation. I was under treatment - -
ment about a month as stated , but grew- ,
worse instead of better , and was fast becoming -
coming discouraged. "
"what brought Pink Pills to your
notice ? "
"My son called my attention to an t
article in a paper , in which It was stated F
that a Dir. Struble , of Branchville , a
village in this county , had been greatly .
benefited by their use , and suggested
that it would be a good plan to tr } ' '
them. But I was skeptleal 1P regard
to their value-in fact , I had ao fop =
fdence in their eilcacy , and rather
laughed at the suggestion. But the
trouble increased and I was badly crip-
pled. A few days later my sun way r
about to visit a neighboring tovn and
suggested again that it might be rveli rte r
to try this much-talked-of remety , and 1.
I then consented. He bought m ' a box
of them , and 1 began taking them at
'
once. At the end of a week i noted a
marked Improvement , and by the tiiue
I had taken the first bas I was able to
walk without a cane. I continued their .
1
use , taking several boxes , and am. as
you see , in a very comfortable state of
health : ' r
"Have you had any return of tla.
tr nble ? " "
( ,
: of as yet , thought at my time of , !
life , seventy-two , it would not be star-
prising if 1 should havt . If it sung. s I
should at once begin the use of the pills.
I suppose I inherit a tendency to
troubles of this kind-my moth"r r11"d
from them.
"Did you ever note any-111 cffe : ts from t I'
the use of Pink Pills ? " I /
"None whatever. They never dls- t
turbed my stomach in any way ur
caused me any annoyance. I an abb , "I
as you see , to attend to my owa yvork. r
The rePooter thanked Mrs. ilotalen
for her courtesy and bade her hood t 4 '
day. It is noL often that one can witness - ,
N
ness such a complete recovery from
such a pertinacious trouble at sta Ii a n ;
advanced age , and such instances cannot -
not fail to lroluce a profound hnpirN-
sion. Readers of the T nion may rely
