As the impiesslvo words fell from
the lips of Judge Hayes , the serious
ness of it all touched the bride and
her eyes moistened with the tears that
mark a woman's soul. But a happy
gleam came into the e > e of the groom
who had seen his four score years ,
and then , the crisis passed , the coun
tenance of the new Mrs. Helmerick
lighted up and they received the con
gratulations of the couitful of men.

She has made her home in Norfolk-
Tor a number of years. Mr. Hel
merick is a well to do farmer In Stanton -
ton county.

which made the democrats think for
a time that they had beaten Mickey
he chilly north hiee/e swept up
again with increased fiuor , the diix-
/Jo tinned to crystals that weio haid

Winter alighted in north Nehiaska
ill In a hunch last night and is in
stalled with every evidence oi re
maining for some days , although in
Nebraska this pessimistic outlook is
liilte likely to bo overcome as piompt-
ly as the had weather settled down
over the country. The frigid Icy
( lakes settled down with scant inter
mission during the entire night and
today the sterets are filled with drifts
ind they are constantly-growing un-
ler the Infinitesimal contributions
from the lowering clouds. Several
nches of snow if leveled out , has
fallen and have formed Into drifts of
at least a foot in depth.
Accompanjlng the snow Is an Icy
iilast from the northwest which drives
the snow and frost into the crocks
and crevices and makes warm cloth
Ing and a bright fire not only a com
fort but a necessity. People were
busy this morning at digging up their
overshoes and leggings and caps that
were laid aside last winter and if none
were laid aside they are availing
themselves of the first opportunity to
lay In these requisites for comfort
from the shelves of the merchants
who keep them In stock for Just such
ernergenoles as the present one.
The storm will be a great Inconven
fence to the farmers and may result
In a loss of a large portion of the mag <
nlficent corn crop unless it should
happen that some nlco weather fol
lows. A recent wind storm had the
effect of blowing the corn to the
giound and this storm has di If ted the
snow over the down ears until they
will bo a complete loss unless
change to warmer comes and melts
the ci\htals If it comes to stay and
the drifts continue to accumulate
theie will be no getting the grain that
Is down and a consequent raise In
price of that which Is obtainable will
nat in ally follow. In the spring aftei
tlio snow has melted the grain will
not ho worth gatheilng and if It was
the farmers would not have time to
harvest In planting time. It Is worse
lo the growers of heels who will not
ho able to complete their harvest un
til the snow Is icmoved and the frost
taken out of the ground , and this may
happen tomorrow , or It may not hap
pen all winter , however , there Is not
much of the beet crop that remains

already converted into eugar or IK in

TOBACCO GROWERS IN SESSION
Think That if Farmers Can Control
Grain Prices They Can Tobacco.
Lynchburg , Va. , Nov. 10. To dis
cuss the general situation In regard
to the tobacco Industry and to de
cide if possible on a minimum price
for the various varieties and grades ,
representatives of the several tobac
co growers' associations of America
assembled In Lynchburg today and
began a two days' conference. The
purposes of the mo\ement are set
forth In the call for the conference ,
which says , In part :
"It has been abundantly demon
strated that farmers can be factors
In shaping the prices of their pro
ducts. Proofs of this statement are
found In the wheat market of the past
year : In com , oats , cattle , hogs , cot
ton , etc. ; prices of all these ha\ebeen
permanently , or for periods , Influ
enced by the quantity thrown on the
market , or wltheld from it. The same
can be done with the tobacco market.
Hy unity of action the groweis will
Ineslstlble. "
The conference Is attended by
piomlnent growers of Kentucky , Vir
ginia , Ohio , North Carolina , Wiscon
sin and other tobacco growing states.

MANY MAINS CARRY WATER

WATER PRESSURE IS INTENSE
And the Buildings Themselves , are
Built Not to Burn The New Build

the First of Next May.
There will never he another ( Ire in
the Nebraska state hospital for the
Insane at Norfolk. Although a small
blare might start , it would have to
take the count before the murderous
onslaughts of the two dozen fierce
streams of water , given extra pres
sure by means of compressed air ,
which would turn In to beat out the
blare from every corner on the
grounds.
For this very purpose a huge com
pressed air tank , which will create
enough pressure to tear the buildings
down , almost , has just been unloaded

order.
Besides the teHcnoIr , there Is a
mammoth standplpe at the hospital ,
which Is ahcady up and doing duty.
It was on a rallioad car In Norfolk
the night ( lie other hospital was de
stroyed.
The water mains , which arc all very
large , stioteh like vines In and out
and over mid aioiind the four new
hiilldliiKS and tlio stables and the
buildings that remained. There are
twenty big hjdiants from which a
supply of water could be taken nt any
Instant for the fighting of the fire and
so perfectly systematic Is the ar
rangement that It would bo impossi
ble for the flame to gain any headway
whatever if the water was started.
Finished May 1 , Perhaps.
It IH now thought that the new hos
pital will not he ready for occupancy
before the first of May at the earliest.
There are t > o many important details
still to be attended to that comple
tion before that time Is practically
out of the question. The date was
sot as the tlrst of the year , during the
summer.
But when the buildings are com
pleted , Nebraska will own a hospital
that any state could well be proud of.
The Interior Is finished , Ixith on the
Moors and the walls , In opallte tiling
of the handsomest sort , an expert
with a salary of $1,500 per year bolng
employed to do this work alone. The
appointments throughout are the fin
est ever and there aie Inducements
everywhere for people who are sane
to lose their minds foi the sake of a
beautiful home
The iron bars which formerly grat
ed the windows and made a prison
of the place , just as they do today at
Hastings and Lincoln , have been
dumped Into a heap out behind the
buildings and will he used no more.
Freedom , comfort and beautifully
homelike surroundings will create a
desire among patients who enter the
new buildings , to slay there forever.
