Mr. Wilkinson of the street nntl alloy committee suggested that the ditches along the streets bo cleaned out thoroughly us soon as the ground can bo worked sulllclently. Mr. Paso- walk stated that the committee desired - sired to complete the Park avenue ditch as soon as the frost was out of the ground , and thought that they could dispose of enough dirt to bring the necessary money. These matters wore loft wltho committee to look after. The committee on public works suggested that the pumps at the wa terworks should bo put in repair before - fore warm weather sots in. The com mittee was authorized to make need ed repairs and purchase such now valves as arc necessary. The flro and police committee re ported that they had two of the no/- zles for the lire department repaired and had ordered repairs for the other , and the company from which the city had purchased the last hose had offered to furnish now couplings for the hose if the old ones were shipped in to them , and that they were making arrangements to ship them one-half at a time. The mayor stated that the ordi nances regarding the stacking of hay in the city limits seemed to bo suf ficient and that all persons who were violating the same had been notified to comply with the law and all had expressed a willingness to do so. The special committee on the Union Pacific railroad water supply reported that they had interviewed the agent and he had promised to take the matter up with the company and would report as soon as possible. The probable cost of a two-inch me ter would be $50. The committee was continued. The request of Mrs. Louisa Asmus for a permit to put up a frame addi tion to the rear of her store building was read and the permit was grant ed , providing that the addition bo constructed of brick or other fire proof material In compliance with the ordinance. A motion prevailed that H. C. Sab- tier be notified to comply with the ordinances and either veneer his building on Sixth street with brick or remove it outside the fire limits. O. W. Rish asked for and was granted a plumber's license for the balance of this year and all of next year , the same to bo delivered when the rules and regulations governing the matter have been complied with.

Robert Dale , ft Madison county pin * heor , is floail Rt his home near Til- don , ngctl eighty years. Ho Came to the county when it was in a raw prai- Vie state and has seen It rapidly de velop into one of the boat agricultural and stock sections < of the west. W. C.

There were 933. Mr. Day gets the talking machine. The mercury showed a minimum of twenty-three degrees last night and frost and ice was In evidence this morning , but the HUH rose bright and clear , with a promise that some real spring weather of the desirable sort will soon bo on tap. There will un- dounbtcdly bo some line days between now and Easter , and after that spring should bo hero most nil the time. A week from Sunday Is Master. Norfolk has been remarkably free from disease and epidemics during the winter , but with the approach of spring there has dovclopod an epi demic of the grip and colds that threatens to lilvado every homo be fore Its course is run. The smallpox that has had a run of several scasnim hero has practically died out and there Is not now a case In the city , neither arc there scarlet fever , diph theria , measles , whooping cough , or cases of the mumps that have been manifest during several seasons past , so that with the colds and the grip at the close of the season Norfolk Is getting off very fortunately First Spadeful Turned for New Institution. VERY LITTLE FROST IN EARTH The Manager of the Company Says That They Pay Union Wages Car load of Tools Coming From Des Molnes Is Delayed. [ From Wednesday's Dally. ] Ground was broken yesterday for the now Nebraska state hospital for the Insane in Norfolk. It was the beginning of work upon the only state institution In the northern half of the state and the ( Irst insane hos pital to be built on the cottage plan In the west. The ground was broken for the ad ministration or main building. The contractors found very little frost in the earth and bellve , if everything goes well , that they will nave the cel lar for the structure dug out by the end of the week. The excavating lias been let to W. P. Dixon. Just at this time the company Is hold up by delayed transit in a car load of tools which were shipped from Des Moines last week. The Union Paclfis has had a tracer out today for the missing car. When this lot of working apparatus arrives the scaffoldings will be erected and the work will bo hastened. It will be necessary for the company to finish by Octobed 1 , and In order to do this a largo force of men must bo con stantly employed. "Wo will probably hire from fifty to seventy-five men all of the time , " said W. B. Hester , manager for the company In Norfolk. "We had ex pected to bo forced to import more than we will need to , having found a great many In Norfolk who are available. We only need to Import a few expert workmen. We now have forty or fifty men cleaning bricks. " "What about the trouble with the men who wont out to clean bricks ? " was asked. "There was no trouble , ' " said Mr. Hester. "Wo had farmerly planned to pay our men by the day. There were a large number of old men and boys wanting work and it was evi dently unfair to pay them all alike. So we determined to pay them at so much per thousand. It Is true that some of them who went out , turned around and came back. The reason , In many cases , was that they lacked tools. Wo required each man to bring a hatchet along with him. READY FOR COLLEGE BASE BALL Two Games to be Played on Eastern Diamonds Today. [ From Wednesday's Dally. ] Now York , March 23. College base ball for the season of 1904 makes its debut on the athletic stage today with games between Yale and Trin ity at New Haven and Princeton and the University of New York at Prin ceton. These contests arc , of course , but little moro than practice games and it will bo several weeks yet before - fore the sport Is on In earnest. The advent of the real spring weather has brought the nines out on to the diamond In full force and at most of the big Eastern colleges the teams are ready for actual play. The number of dates that have been arranged for the next few weeks in dicate that a largo part of the pre liminary practice in preparation for the important games of the year will bo in the nature of games with weaker teams. The result of the games in which Yale and Princeton engage in today is awaited with con siderable interest as both institutions expect to have strong nines this year. WEDNESDAY WRINKLES.

" It is anticipated that the address will be one well worth the hearing. C. E. Saundcrs , now at the head of the cigar doparoment for E. E. Bruce , and a well known traveler In this sec tion of the state , was in Norfolk to day. Mr. Saundcrs travels now only when ho chooses. Elaborate Costume Ballon St. Patrick's Day. SENATOR ALLEN A HOD CARRIER One of the Moet Drllllnnt Social Func tions Yet Known In the County Sent , Which all the People of the "Tipper Ten Attended. [ From Suturdny'ii Dully. ] Madison , Nob. , March III. Special to The News : For some time past it has been announced that there would bu a dance take place In the lleln opera house on the 17th of March. Invitations In a very neat and appropriate style had been sent out and It was announced ( hat a'l ' taking part In the dance should ap pear In continue appropriate to the occasion , therefore great preparations were being mndo by all classes to see how varied and well this could be done This was not to bu a mas querade dance , but one of costume , each representing an Irish character as nearly as the Individual Idea could make It. The house was beautifully and tastily decorated In colors lilting for the occasion , hence It Is not nec essary to say the predominate color was green. The costumers began to arrive early In the evening nnd with the expectation thai something was going lo happen worth seeing. A largo number of spectators had ar ranged themselves In comfortable seals placed for the purpose and they were surely not dlsappolnled. As one after another of the costumers ar rived It began to dawn on the specta tors that It was going to bo some thing unusual. The members of the orchestra were decorated to kill. Dick Forosyth were a green rosetlo bow on Ihe lapel of his coat thai stuck oul a yard on each side of his shoulders and Iho slrcamors hung lo the floor. McGulncss had the ad vantage of most as It was not nec essary for him to make much change. However , ho made a very presentable appearance of an old time bojj trot ter , and every member was very ap propriately fixed up pending Ihe lime for Iho grand march. Those present took the opportunity to introduce themselves lo their friends and ad mirers and to join In a wallor two- step as their fancy struck them , but very soon the house crowded and a call for the grand march was heard , and each couple took Us place , with a couple from Humphrey and a cou ple from Madison to lead off. Of all Iho slghls ever seen Ibis would cap Ibe climax. People representing over beard of. Hero are a few of especial mention. First there were six couples from Humphrey whoso coslumes were very elaborate as they were Imported direct from the auld sod especially for this occasion. Then came Senator Allen with his magnifi cent physique and looked a giant Mick hod carrier , and leaning upon his arm what seemed to bo a moro pig my In stature. Then a very striking contrast. Then a very striking con trast. Willis E. Reed was the pigmy IhlB lime and Irylng to lead a lady who looked seven foot tall and six fool wide. Then Ihoro was J. Donovan van , Dr. Condon , Mr. Maltlson , Mr. Grant , Mr. Ed Frlcklo , Mr. Hume , Mr. Frasier , Paul Brlnkman and nu merous others and for a nice neat dapper young swell Irish gentleman of the upper crust Mr. A. Scannell took the dough. Then for a tall spec imen of a genuine Irish peasant who loked for all the world like ho had just been transplanted with his black thorn shlllelah In his hand , Mr. Plcrco was that same ; then two Irish po licemen Buddy Nicholson and Mr. Cato look Ihe honors ; Ihen Ed O'Shea , Dr. Smart and others too numerous to mention. Among the ladles Mrs. W. E. Reed was especially good. She looked as If she had jusl arrived from across the pond and so complete was her make-up that the most Intlmato friends did not know her. Then the real old Irish washer woman , Miss Long. But the very prettiest and most tasty dress of green was worn by Miss Hume. Miss Allen was very neatly attired and made a striking appearance , also the Misses Snurc , Frlckio , Wills , Grant , Spence , Fayes , Horshams and among the other la dles were Mrs. Mattlson , Mrs. Foro- sylh , Mrs , Donovan , Mrs. Smart , Mrs. Brlnkman and Mrs. Wolfo. A native would have been puzzled to know whether it was a representa tion of Ireland or a function being held in the court of Austria , so bril liant and dazzling were the effects. It lasted till the wee1 sma' hours of morning , each departing for his homo declaring it was Iho most elaborate event in the history of Madison. Dance at Alnsworth. Alnsworth , Nob. , March 19. Spe cial to The News : St. Patrick's day was celebrated hero with a grand ball at Alnsworth hall. There was a prize offered for the two raggodest In the hall , which was won by Barry Swott and Mrs. Willis Ogden. Mr. Swolt received a flno cake and Mrs. Ogden received a line gold ring. The music was flno nnd everybody enjoyed the dancing until 2 a. m' ' . The hall was crowded. Fined for Shooting Song Birds. Plattsmouth , Nob. , March 18. G.E.

Several years ago. while In private practice , I thought It wrong to adver tise , simply bocauflo I Lad boon told so and had not had experience enough to know hotter. After a whllo I dis covered a valuable plan of treatment In certain cases , nnd fortunately ob tained a largo number of patients , enough to fully test my plan and provo its success. I thereupon pre pared a lengthy paper upon the sub ject and read It before the state med ical society. What was the result ? A half a dozen members took the floor to say what the treatment had been for a hundred years ( back , nnd to claim that the old treatment , though unsuccessful , should bo con tinued , notwithstanding that the now treatment had been successful. I thought differently and continued to use the now method , and made re markable cures of cases that had been pronounced incurable. My bus iness increased rapidly as each per son that I cured told some friend , who came In turn and was cured. Bach patient advertised mo a little. What then ? In that largo city there wore not more than 400 cases of the kind. I cured every case that came to mo and then had nothing to do except the ordinary business of a local physician. I know there were hundreds and thousands of others elsewhere , who might bo cured if they only know ; nnd I advertised. Cured hundreds of others and I have advertised over since. I have re lieved more suffering , cured moro pa tients , made moro people happy , and done moro good generally because I have told the people what I can do , and I shall go on with the good work as long as my strength will permit. I advertise because I have some thing worth advertising. I have made myself competent by years of spec ial study and experience , and by the expenditure of largo sums of money. By advertising I place before the people ple the facts which enable them to > cnow what I can do. I thereby roaob thousands , who , given up by local physicians or unsuccessful treated , give thomsoves up as incurable. I cure them and thereby enlarge my Held of usefulness. By no other way than advertising could these people have known that they could bo cured. Every thrifty and prosperous busi ness in life , save those of law and medicine , advertise freely. Lawyers do not , for they only use in business what others have made for thorn years before. They only do what has been written. "Regular" doctors do not advertise for the same reason. They have nothing new , nothing which someone else has not written or told them of , they get their know ledge from the books. A man may read medicine until ho is blind and then know nothing of It To bo suc cessful ho must apply his own mind. Make his own researches , and to do that ho must have room and oppor tunity. Ho must have cases , hun dreds of them , and compare results. If ho docs not do this bo is a ma chine without novelty , skill or in genuity , still plowing with a wooden plow , still traveling on foot or horse back , and ignoring the advantages of steam , living but not learning. The same is true of a lady doctor. Below you will find published the names and addresses of some of the recent cures that I have made. These people's afflictions wore , under the ordinary physician's care , considered hopeless , and no prospects for a cure : Mrs. Kate Schall of Albion , Nob. , YOU MUST NOT FORGET Thai , wo uro constantly tfrowinfj in tlio art of making Kino Photos , and our products will al ways bo found to embrace the and Newest Styles in Cards and Finish Wo also carry a fine line of Moldings suitable for all kinds of framing. 1 THE NORFOLK BUSINESS COLLEGE I THIRD YEAR. j ; Conservative Management , Thorough Equipment , Commodious Rooms , Superior Instruction.
