"OLD NELL BAILEY" SUCCUMBS
TO PARALYSIS.
IS THE RESULT OF LEE'S DEATH
\
Dcnd Woman Had Not Been Out of
Dcd Since Dny Before Her Husband
Was Burled , But Now She Will be
Burled Beside Two Former Mates ,
[ From FrIJnj'a Unity. )
This third victim or a tliml tragedy
that occurred In Norfolk last Septem
ber was claimed by death at 11:21 : !
o'clock last night when Nell Bniloy ,
wife of the dead Leo Ilailey and hooper
of a resort In Norfolk for a score of
years , closed her eyes In eternal sleep ,
Stricken with a second stroke of pa
ralysis on the. day before her dead
husband was to bo burled , "Old Nell , "
as she became known among her asso
ciates , was carried to bed and never
moved from her conch until the under
taker was called late last night. The
excitement of the tragedy which cost
Lee Uniley hlH life , caused the paralyt
ic stroke whicli ended In the death of
Ills wife.
The funeral will be hold Saturday
afternoon at 2 o'clock from the house
over which the dead woman ruled for
so many years , llnrlal will bo in
Prospect 11111 cemetery in the same
lot which holds her two dead husbands ,
Lee Bailey and a man named Wells ,
to whom she was married many years
ago and who died in Norfolk.
Not a Relative on Earth.
Nell Ualley had not a relative on
tin- face of the earth , so far as is
known. The only person in any way
i-Hnted to her is Albert Bailey of Oma
ha , brother of Lee , who arrived hi
Norfolk last night a few hours before
the woman's death , and who made ar
rangements for the funeral.
"Old Nell" came to Norfolk more
than twenty years ago and has been
associated with the same region dur
ing all of her residence here. It was
eighteen years ago that she was mar
ried to Lee Uniley. She was fifty-three
years of age last July. She had suf
fered one paralytic stroke previous to
the tragic death of Lee Bailey , but
she had partially recovered from the
ih at when the second stroke came
upon her. Fiom this she never lecov-
ered and it was announced at the time
of the Bailey funeial that It was only
a question of a short time before she
should succumb. She surprised physi
cians by her strong constitution in
surviving as long as she did. Of late
she had taken to the vso of morphine
in heavy quantities and this is sai.l to
have hastened her death.
It was stated after the woman's
death by Albert Bailey that her af
fairs will be placed in the hands of an
administrator and that the place which
she has conducted would probably he
continued under now management.
A Victim to ! ! or Life.
Nill Builey was a big , coarse look
ing woman , weighing in the neighbor
hood of 200 pounds. Where she was
born or where she came from Is not
known here. She becamii violently
frenzied when excited and , a couple of
years ago , shot Leo Bailey in the back
while enraged. She disliked publicity
and on that occasion remarked sarcas
tically , "Of course the d news
papers have to know everything. "
When Informed last September that
Bailey had been killed she drove over
to town In a hack. At first she refused
to believe him dead but when she
found it to be' true she turned upon
the assembled crowd and applied all
the epithets of her vocabulary to ev
erybody within range.
But after she had calmed down there
were traits of gentleness in this wo
man , for all her rough life. After she
had shot Leo Bailey In the back , and
while he lay at the danger point , she
nursed him as tenderly as another wo
man ever could and regretted her act
In deep emotion.
She longed to accompany the re
mains of Ixjo Bailey to the grave last
fall but , stricken with paralysis , could
only listen to the fimeral service. On
Saturday afternoon , a victim to the
life that she has led , she will bo taken
to the grave of her two dead husbands ,
to remain forever.
THE TRANSFER BUSINESS.
One of the new Industries , developed
In Norfolk within the last year or so ,
and which promises things for the
town along the wholesale line , is the
transfer business built up by W. H.
Blakoman. There is one of the sort in
Council Bluffs , one In Omaha , one In
Lincoln and ono In Norfolk. That
shows how scarce they are and It
means that Norfolk has homething
here , as In many other lines , known to
few cities of this size.
A transfer institution Is a great big
store house. There are two largo
buildings used in the Norfolk transfer
plant , with basements. The whole in-
Htltntion , it is said , will hold about
100 cars of merchandise of various
sorts. That means about four million
pounds. It's hard to realize Just what
four million pounds are , until yon see
them stacked up In the shape of ( loin
and farm machinery and binding twine
and the like. Those four million
pounds require men In the lifting. A
hundred carloads of freight will not
unload themselves , place themselves
In order and then reload. Men get
thrir bread nnd butter from this work
Six men tro kept busy a portion of the
time , a less number the rest of tht
tin.a
From two firms In Omal a the other
day came a contract for storing forty
carloads of material hero. That shows
that Norfolk Is on the map In this bust-
ncsH , All sorts of things are Included.
A new department capable of taking
care of perishable goods In the gro
cery lluo Is going to bo added to the
plant before long. This , It Is said ,
may lead to a wholesale grocery busi
ness In Norfolk.
The advantage to manufacturers In
shipping their , products to Norfolk for
storage nnd then reshlpment , lies In
the fact that from hero out through the
lorthwcst shipments can gain more
ban twenty-four hours In tlnio over
Omaha , Sioux City or other river
mints. That's where Norfolk's forte
les lu every Industry. That's what Is
going to make this a wholesale town
sooner or later , If the town keeps at
ho development of such business.
This transfer business has been HO
veil established by Mr. Blakeman now
that manufacturers and wholesalers
everywhere are beginning to write and
vant space hi the plant.

GUY B. STRICKLAND TO BE EN
ROLLING CLERK.
WORK OF THE LEGISLATURE
The Carrying Out of All Party Pledgee
to the Letter Is the Slogan of the So-
Called " " Sheldon
"Progressives" Has
Clear Cut Ideas.
Lincoln , Neb. , .Inn. 12. Special to
The News : Guy B/Strlckland of Mad-
.son was late this afternoon appointed
? nrolllng clerk In the house.
SLOGAN OF "PROGRESSIVES. "
Governor Sheldon Has Clear Cut Ideas
About Bills.
Lincoln , Neb. , Jan. 12. Special to
The News : "The state platformand
the pledges contained therein n.visthe
nacted into stable law according to
he promises made to the people last
all. "
This Is the slogan of the real "prog
ressives" of the house and senate. Be
fore the joint committees of the house
nnd senate the matter will bo argued
out < lisciiF od at length.
It is expected that thorn will he
ome demurring from the general plan.
There may be many false cries of
'railroad tool" and there will he con
fusion galore. However , the real
'progs" will gather under the banner
of Governor Sheldon's campaign pledg-
s and labor earnestly to enact all into
law.
law.A
A number of statesmen promptly
rushed a number of 2-cent rate bills
into the legislative hopper. These ore
not in conformity with the republican
platform and are really democratic
measures. The republican platform
pledged an elective railroad commis
sion , responsible to HIP p'-opl for al !
the nets. Tills commission was to
have full control over railroad freight
and passenger rates.
Governor Sheldon has met a num
ber of legislators but the form or con
text , of the various measures have not
been discussed by the new executive ,
lie considers it the duty of the legisla
ture to enact the reforms contained in
the platform. His friends predict that
the hills must be perfect or he will not
ign them. More than that they will
bo returned to the legislature with a
clear and definite statement why the
veto has been affixed.
Governor Sheldon has worked inces
santly since his inauguration. The
session of the legislature , the pressure
of routine duties and the exacting de
mands of his searching Into the quali
fications of office seekers has engaged
all his time. He has been working
from early morning far into the night.
Sheldon has devoted painstaking care
to his appointments. It has been stat
ed that they will bo announced In the
near future.
When the lucky ones are named they
will find that state positions have
ceased to be lucrative snaps. For in
stance , Governor Sheldon , it is stated ,
lias a definite idea of what the oil In-
spectlon should consist of. This Is
not merely a matter of stamping bar
rels of oil and collecting the fees.
The Inspector nnd his deputies may bo
required to go out Into the state , In
spect brands and condemn oil. In oth
er words the new administration will
demand that the oil Inspector protect
the people from inferior and adulte
rated oil rather than merely grabbing
the contributions of the oil barons.
This will mean serious loss to the oil
trust.
Painted labels for gasoline cans will
be an issue in the legislature this year.
Senator Wlltse may talto the matter
up. It Is alleged that many deaths
have resulted from mistakes In choos
ing the can which contains gasoline
for the family kerosene can. Repre
sentative Foster introduced a bill two
years ago to paint all gasoline cans
red. This was slain In the senate , a
young woman who disliked Foster per
suading a senator to change his vote.
Senator Burns has presented a bill
to keep supreme , district and county
judges In Nebraska from Indulging in
scrambles for political offices. The bill
prescribes that no oflleer specified can
bo a candidate for olllco during the
term for which ho was elected except
a candidate for re-election to the samr
olllco. Representative Brown has in
troduced a copy of the bill In the
house.
Several child labor abolition bills
have appeared In the legislature ,
[ Child peonage In all Its forms is for
hidden under the provisions of these
measures.
SESSION HELD AT MADISON TUES
DAY AND WEDNESDAY.
THE ATTENDANCE WAS LIGHT
Addresses of Speakers Covered Many
Practical Suggestions Worthy of
Adoption Interesting Meeting From
Start to Finish.
The farmers' Institute held at Mad
ison Tuesday and \Vednemlay was a
splendid meeting deserving a much
better attendance than It received , 1) .
H. Huston , representing the Norfolk
Business college , who Is much Inter
ested in this class of work , makes re
port of the meeting us follows :
The meeting was called to order
Tuesday noon. After music and reci
tations by the high school pupils , the
first address was by Mrs. C. 12. Wol-
ton of Falrbiiry , on the care and man
agement of the Kitchen , llor sugges
tions not only on the methods of pre
paring the foods hut upon the manage
ment of the kitchen for the comfort of
I he housewife , were very practical.
She Insisted too that housekeeping Is
and should be considered a piol'ession
well worthy of Hie aspiration of the
most cultivated woman
.1. S. Atkinson of Pnwneo City led
In the discussion of trull for the home.
He Is n practical fruit grower and
gave more largely his experience and
observation In preparing the soil , par
ticularly for small fruits , the planting
of the tree as well as varieties. 'He
urged a general selection of varieties
as what would be successful In one
locality occasionally IH a failure In an
other , fil Hit- small fruits , strawber
ries , y iorrloK , plums , etc. , can bo
gro ; i on almost any of the soils In
N "jruska During the tllsciiHHion the
i Milt live agent was given a few prods ,
nut \\as defended by D. B. Huston of
Norfolk , who took the position that
while ho did not approve of many of
.he methods of the ordinary agent , the
facts remain that fully 75 to 90 per
cent of the growing fruits of Nebraska
today are duo wholly to the persist
ency of the fruit Irco agent.
The Wednesday meeting was opened
by an address by A. Hull of Albion on
soil culture. The addiess wns largely
from his own experience from prac
tical farming. It seems that if a good
attendance of farmers , even the farm
boys and the farm hands , could only
be secured , not only to listen to such
talks but to give their experience nnd
observation , much good could be ac
complished , not only in Increasing the
yield from the soil but In making farmIng -
Ing attractive.
During the afternoon Mr. Hull ga\e
also a very practical address on eco
nomic pork production.
P. W. Chase of Pawnee Pity gave an
address on good roads , which should
have been heard by every business
man and farmer in the county. This
address was wholly from practical
work of hlmtiolf , with photographs of
two roads , one worked out and the
other untouched , with cost of < uii ; ; ;
the work and the actual saving of
machinery , lie also gave a practical
talk on corn grow ing , from the gath
ering and tostinr of the seed to plant
ing , cultivating and harvesting.
The subjects treated were all com
mendable in that they were not given
as curealls but from their practical ex
perience and observation as practical
farmers. A greater interest of the
farmers in such meetings should cer
tainly be urged. Many parts of the
state are now taking great interest In
ill of these gatherings and good re
sults are olrondy apparent.

DISORDER IN BRAIN.
Autopsy on Victim of Iowa Lynching
Mob is Held.
Charles City , In. , Jan. II. The ver
dict of the coroner's jury In the case
of James Cnllen , the wealthy contract
or , who was lynched for the murder of
Ills wife and stepson , Is to the effect
he came to his death by hanging at
the hands of parties unknown to the
jury.
jury.The
The autopsy revealed that Cullen'n
brain showed degeneration and that
there were traces of adhesions. This ,
It Is declared , would have saved him
from the gallows and caused him to
have been sent to the asylum. Cul-
Ion's brain was half an ounce heavier
than the ordinary six ounces. His
head measurements are also greatoi
than the average.
A fact that has come to light today
Is that Cnllen was a constant reader
of nil the facts In the Busse case , and
when the sentence of the latter wan
commuted to life Imprisonment Cnllen
remarked that If that mm could not hi ;
hung they couldn't hang anybody. Hie
crime that transpired afterwards was
similar to Basse's.
