The work of laying the Norfolk sewer
er system will bo resumed as soon as

construction work , Is In Norfolk. Ho
expects to Issue a call for men within
the next few days and is confident of
being able to continue the laying of
the sewer pipes by the Ilrst of next
month. Additional pipe will bo hero
within the next few days. Ono and
three-fourths miles of fifteen-Inch pipe
remain to bo laid. This will give
about two months' employment to fif
ty or sixty men. The pipe still to bo
placed will bo n continuation of the
present construction up South First
street with extensions up Park and
Madison avenues to Seventh street.
Dangers of the Grip.
The greatest danger from the grip
is of its resulting In pneumonia. Wo
have never known this to occur , however -
over , when Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy was used. It relieves the lungs ,
opens the secretions , allays the cough
and aids nature in restoring the sys
tem to a healthy condition. Millions
of people have used It with the most

/Islts of Prowler Will Cause Extra
Precaution.
Norfolk doors will bo securely bar

Ight prowler and minors of attempted

Ion of fact , the truth In such stories
'alns many Interesting additions as
t goes the rounds of Hie town gossip
The fictitious "bogy man" Is always
is much feared as the real burglar and
n most cases Is about equally danger-
ins , Whether the two or three noc'
nrnal visits made by uninvited
strangers to Norfolk homes during the
last few days were merely unconnoct
d events or foreshowed an epidemic

ho same. During the next few days
every bark of the dog will bring nlarn
ind every whistle of the wind will be
narked with suspicion.
Norfolk from the nature of Its popu
atlon Is a city where such alarms
nako quick progress. The town
itrctchos over a wide area. Man >

of this size.
STANTON HAS LIGHT PROBLEM
Question of Electricity and Sewer May
Cause Two Tickets.
Stanton , Neb. , March 15. Special to
The News : Municipal politics up to
estorday wore very quiet in Stanton
Yesterday both the Picket and the
Register came out for the same men :
-ovy Mlllor for mayor , Joseph Grat
an for councilman In the Second
ivanl. Mr. Mlllor Is president of the
first National bank and has been a
esldent of this place for almost a
quarter of a century. Joseph Grattan
s also well and favorably known
. ,
Both possess undoubted abilities for
he position to which they aspire.
Were it not that there was some dlf
'erences among the citizens on the
jest policy to be pursued with reference
once to the proposition of the city
owning Its own electric lights am' '
also on the advisability of construct
ng a sewerage system , It Is quite
I' irobablo ' that no contest would bo
" : nade. But on these questions there
s some difference of opinion whlcl
may glvo rlso to some opposition , or
which may dlo out before Saturday
veiling , the date sot for the conven
tlon.

Despite the fast march of progress
In northern Nebraska , trapping , hunt

Samuel Ix.'inon , a Brown county ranch
man living south of Nordon , pays th
taxes on 1,280 acres of timber am
grass land with the results of the
year's accumulations of coon skins
The coons are plentiful and arc easllj
trapped along the smaller streams
With an occasional shot at a big stray
Ing wolf and plenty of game ilsh a
hand In the streams , Mr. Lemon main
tains that natural sport has not ye
been banished from Brown county.
Mr. Lemon passed through Norfoll
yesterday on his way homo from

BUY BIG RANCH.
C. J. Anderson of Nellgh Has Become
Sole Owner of Federal.
Nollgh , Nob. , March 15. Special to
The News : A deal of largo financial
Importance has 'recently ' been con
summated whereby C. J. Anderson of
this city becomes solo owner of the
Federal ranch and stock , situated near
Cody , Cherry county.
The company was capitalized at
$120,000 , $70,000 of the stock being
held ' by Mr. Anderson , and the bal
ance by B. J. Hoffachor and Allen
Marsh , the latter of Omaha. Mr. Hoff-
acher will engage In the sugar busi
ness with his millionaire uncle , Clans

tion of hay meadow , something very
valuable and now almost impossible
to obtain In that section. On Its

THIS PLAN WOULD RELIEVE THE
TOWN OF TRACKS.
WOULD CUT OUT SWITCHING
A Lot of Things Which Are Now Ob-
'jected to , Says Resident , Could be
Done Away With by Putting Depot
Out in the Country , Away From Town
[ From Friday's Oally. ]
A new depot plan Is suggested by a
Norfolk citizen. It was suggested as
a means of relieving the objection
which many express toward having
trains cross Main street. This Is the
plan :
Build a union depot in the Y down
at South Norfolk. Tear out all tracks
now crossing Norfolk avenue. * Build
the M. & O. track down to the Junea
tlon on the east side of the river and
bring It Into the Junction on the main
line of the Northwestern. Swing the
Union Pacific trains into the Junction
from southwest of the city. Swing
the Donesteel line east of town , bendc
Ing It at the sugar factory and let It
run Into the Junction on the M. & O
track , east of the river.
"This , " says the citizen , "would re-
Hove us of tracks across Norfolk
cnue. There would be no streets to
close. The Industrial establishments
now alongside tracks , which would he
left high and dry by removal of tracks
could bo turned into some other use
by the Industrial company , now in
charge of the sugar factory building
. "Seventh street could bo made n
boulevard. "

sons and a daughter wcro at the bed

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Is Both
Agreeable and Effective.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
nq fiuperlor for coughs , colds and
croup , and the fact that It Is pleasant
to take and contains nothing In any
way Injurious has made It n favorite
with mothers. Mr. W. S. Pelham , a
merchant of Klrksvllle , Iowa , says :
"For more than twenty years Cham
borlaln's Cough Remedy has been my
leading remedy for all throat troubles
It Is especially successful in cases o
croup. Children like it and my CUB
tomors who have used It will not take

STRANGE MISSION DROUGHT MAN
TO NORFOLK.
BUT HE WAS DISAPPOINTED
George L. Soberer of Amboy , Minn. ,
Arrived In Norfolk In the Hope That
Mrs. Katherlne Kummetz Was His
Sister Arc Related.
A man and a woman stared at each
other yesterday in a Norfolk rooming
IIOUBO and wondered If they were
brother and sister. It was a serious
matter with these people , this ques
tion of blood relationship. The man
had come a good many miles to solve
the | ( iiicstlon , to find out whether or
not a long-lost sister was living out on
the Nebraska prairie.
Seeks His Sister.
George L. Soberer , soventy-ono
years old and apparently a prosper
ous farmer of the north , lives at Am-
boy , Minn. Yesterday ho was In Nor
folk ( on a strange mission. Ho sought
a sister whom two score years or so
ago ho had left behind In the moun
tains of Switzerland. Ills course In
Norfolk took him to the rooming
house conducted by Mrs. Katherlno
Kurnmctz south of the Paclllc hotel.
Mrs. Kummetz's father had been a
Swiss man named Schcrer.
Mrs. Kummetz Not Sister.
So these two people mot , looked atone
ono another and wondered. . If they
were brother and sister fifty years of
tlmo stretched between thorn. Then
the : man went to his task , asking ques
tions of the native land. In fiction per
haps Mr. Scherer would have achieved
his quest , but his Journey to Norfolk
was not so rewarded. Ho had not
found the sister. Yet that Mr. Scher
or and the Norfolk woman who once
bore the same name arc related tliero
Is no doubt. Even they can not attest
the degree of relationship.
Parted Fifty Years Ago.
Nearly fifty years ago Mr. Scherer
left his native Switzerland for Amer
ica. A sister some thirteen years of
age remained at home. In the years
that passed ho lost trace of her. Vis
iting the old country a few years ago
ho found that his sister had gone to
the United States long before and
that no word of her was obtainable at
the old homo. " Last summer a nephew
whom Mr. Schorer had raised was In
Norfolk and chanced to learn Mrs.
Kummetz's maiden name and some
thing of her history. He thought that
ho had found his uncle's sister. The
old man waited until business brought
him to Omaha.
Mr. Scherer will remain In Norfolk
for a day or so but ho will leave the
city still In Ignorance as to whether
his sister Is living or silent among
the dead.
MALICIOUS CHARGE REFUTED
Dr. Young Asks Governor Sheldon to
Investigate Vicious Story.
Dr. G. A. Young , superintendent of
the Norfolk hospital for the Insane ,
has issued the following statement
with regard to a charge made against
him ' ' by B. W. Monroe , a former at
tendant , In Omaha and Lincoln news
papers :
"My attention has been called to the
article In the Evening World-Herald
of the 13th headed , 'Neglect Charged. '
The articlewas written by a discred
ited employe shows upon Its face Its
malicious Intent and requires no re
ply. I have forwarded the article to
Governor Sheldon , together with ref
utation of the contained charges , and
have asked for an Investigation. I
am sure that the newspapers may find
ready access to It In the governor's
office at Lincoln. Correspondents are
Invited i , to visit the hospital and every
opportunity will bo given tp aid In
making a thorough Investigation. A
committee of seventeen members of
the present legislature visited the hos
pital some six weeks ago and their
favorable report bespoke no such con
dition as described In the article. .1
am responsible to Governor Sheldon
for the proper conduct of this hospi
tal and stand ready at all times to
have a thorough examination made
Into the affairs of the Institution , "
Monroe says among other things :
"I resigned my iKisltlon as superin
tendent of the violent ward nt the
Norfolk state Insane hospital because
I refused to take the responsibility of
guarding , without assistance , thirty
maniacal patients , somu of whom I
might have to kill or Injure at any mo
ment to protect myself. "
Ho charges Dr. Young with gross
negligence of the violent patients , with
covering up the facts In several cases
of sulcldos and with cutting down the
number of attendants to an absurdly
low figure In order to economize and
thus gain prestige In his quest for the
permanent position of superintendent.
"Conditions at the Norfolk Institu
tion are the worst I ever saw , " Mr.
Monroedeclares. "I have worked In
nearly a dozen Insanity hospitals and
have quit In , encli en so with the best
recommendations , but never did I see
anything to touch the stnto of affairs
nt Norfolk. "
Monroe says ho was employed at
the hospital on December C and re
signed with disgust on March 1.
