NORFOLK'S SCHOOL TAX WILL BE
LESS FROM NOW ON.
EVEN WITH NEW BOND ISSUE
After July Norfolk Will , Even With
New Bond Issue of $24,000 , Have
$1,000 Less Burden Than Now City
Needs School May Not Use All.
[ Prune - < > ne8 < Jny'B Dully. ]
Voters of the Norfolk school dis
trict who will bo called to pnss on the
proposed $2-1,000 hand Issue nt the
April election nro naturally and rightly -
ly Interested In knowing the financial
condition of the school , district. Mem
bers of thd hoard of education are also
anxious that the financial condition of
the district should bo placed before the
voters to show that the district stands
well In money matters at this time.
Acting under Instructions from the
secretary of the school hoard the coun
ty treasurer will call In $25,000 of the
outstanding school bonds during the
next few months. This will leave the
bonded debt of the school district at
$11,000.
Exact Standing Today.
The exact standing of the district's
finances are set out In the following
statement received yesterday from
County Treasurer Christopher Schav-
land at Madison :
"In reply to yours of the 22nd In
stance , shall say that the $25,000 bond
issue Is dated August 1 , 1889 , and ma
tures August 1 , 1909 and may bo paid
after fifteen years from date of Issue
nt the option of the officers of the
school district.
"The $11,000 Issue is dated May 1 ,
1898 , and matures Ainy 1 , 1918. There
is no option noted on my bond regis
ter.
"The bond sinking fund , including
interest fund , now amounts to $25,234
and with real estate taxes soon to
come In will ho amply sufficient to
take up the $25,000 issue at the next
interest payment in July , possibly be
fore. The sinking fund now on hand
has been provided for that issue only ,
and is therefore applicable in Its en
tirety. It has been made up in the
ehort time of about seven or eight
years. Arrangements will be made to
take up the $25,000 on or before July
1 , 1907. "
Less Taxes From Now On.
Provided the new bond issue of $24-
000 passes , before it will have been
carried into effect the old bond issue
of $25,000 will have been entirely
wiped off the records. The bonded in
debtedness under the new issue will
he at least $1,000 less than at present.
The period of indebtedness will of
course be extended over a longer pe
riod.
riod.While
While In the end the taxpayers have
to pay for every cent put Into school
building members of the board show
that the taxpayers of Norfolk will not
be called on to meet an Increase In
the tax rate for school purposes. The
$25,000 retiring bonds carry six per
cent. Interest while the new Issue
calls for five per cent , bonds. Under
the law ten years may elapse before
the hoard will have to levy taxes to
provide for a sinking fund against the
proposed bond Issue. In the mean
while the $11,000 Issue can be cared
for. Where the district will lose will
not be In an increase of taxes but
through the fact that had the fire not
occurred the sinking fund levy would
have been practically wiped out of
existence In a few years.
City Must Have School.
Norfolk must have a new high school
building and she must have money to
build it. If the $24,000 bond issue car
ries , added to the $15,000 Insurance ,
it will place $39,000 at the disposal of
the board for the rebuilding of the
high school. Added to this is the sal
vage represented in the old building.
May Not Use All.
Members of the board declare that
their aim will be to serve the inter
ests of the district as economically as
possible in securing a suitable high
school building for the district and
that if the cost of their building can
be brought below the above amount
the amount of bonds will fall that
much below the $24,000 limit fixed in
the board's request to the voters of
the school district.
ENGAGED TO THREE AT ONCE.
Did Bessie Newton of Ponca Pay Pen
alty With Life for Flirting.
Ponca , Neb. , March 27. Did Bessie
Newton pay with her life the penalty
of flirting ? It has boon brought out
at the trial that she was engaged to
two men at the same time , the wed
ding days being set but one day apart ,
and it will he proved that she was
also engaged to a third man , Bert
Chase , within the last year. So deep
was the love of Frank Brink that his
mind became affected by the suspense
In which ho was held and In his de
mented condition ho tried to kill him
self and circumstantial evidence tends
to show that he killed the girl. Ho
will be taken to the Norfolk Insane
hospital.
Baking Economy.
By the use of perfect baking powder
the housewife can derive as much
economy as from any other article
" sed in baking and cooking. In se
lecting a baking powder , therefore ,
care should be exercised to purchase
one that retains its original strength
and always remains the same , thus
making the food sweet and wholesome
End producing sufficient leavening gas
to make the baking light.
Very little of this leavening gas Is
produced by the clump baking powders -
dors , making It noci'ssary to use dou
ble the quantity ordinarily required to
secure good results. '
You cannot experiment every time
you make a cnko or biscuits , or test
Iho strength of your baking powder to
find out how much of It you should
use ; yet with most baking powders
you should do this , for they nro put
together so carelessly they nro never
uniform , the quality and strength vary
ing with each can purchased.
Calumet baking powder is made of
chemically pure Ingredients of tested
strength. Experienced chemists put
It up. The proportions of the different
materials remain always the same.
Scaled In alr-tlght cans Calumet bak
ing powder does not alter In strength
and Is not affected by atmospheric
changes.
In using Calumet you arc bound to
have uniform bread , cake or biscuits ,
as Calumet docs not contain any
cheap , useless or adulterating Ingre
dients so commonly used to Increase
the weight. Further , It produces pure ,
wholesome food and Is a baking pow
der of rare merit ; therefore , Is recom
mended by leading physicians and
chemists. It complies with all pure
food laws , both state and national.
The goods are moderate In price , and
any lady purchasing Calumet from
her grocer , If not satisfied with It can
return It and have her money refund
ed.
IT IS NO TIME TO LAUGH AT THE
WEATHER MAN.
FALL OF FIFTY-FIVE DEGREES
From Eighty-one In the Shade , Mer
cury Dropped Suddenly to Twenty-
six Snow Did Not Reach Norfolk
But Came at Valentine , Neb.
[ Frotr Wednesday' ? Dnlly.J
No , the weather man Is not to bo
scoffed at. His forecasted cold wave
came nt last and overcoats are not
uncomfortable In place of negligee.
From eighty-one In the shade Tuesday
afternoon the mercury suddenly took
a tumble of fifty-five degrees In Nor
folk , stopping at twenty-six above zero
early Wednesday morning.
And the Snow , Too.
"But where is the snow , " asked the
casual observer , thinking to put the
weather man in a hole. The snow
came alright , alright but not in Nor
folk . At Valentine , Neb. , a couple
hundred miles west of Norfolk , sever
al inches of snow fell. Norfolk
chanced to bo just east of the snow
line. But the weather man , after all ,
was not so badly off.
The Reason For Delayed Cold Wave.
A reason for the delayed cold wave ,
which was forecasted Monday , lay in
the fact that there was a low pres
sure over Norfolk and one in Oregon ,
with a high pressure area , bringing
cold weather , between. It had been
expected that this low pressure would
bring rain or snow and that the high
pressure got caught between the two
low pressures , and was put off in an
other direction , being sent down to
ward Denver. Later , when the low
pressure got out of the way here , the
cold wave came as predicted.
Weather men say that such another
warm spell as this section had for a
week , will not be seen again for four
weeks , and rather cooler weather will
be the rule.
Fair weather is forecasted for to
morrow.

YOUTHFUL GROOM AT PIERCE IS
HELD FOR PERJURY ,
SWORE THEY WERE OLD ENOUGH
John J , Frey Is Bound Over to District
Court at Pierce In Sum of $1,000 It
Is Said He Will Sue Father-ln-Law
for Alienating Wife's Love.
Pierce , Neb. , March 27. Special to
The News : The culmination of a min
iature elopement was reached yester
day in the county court of this county
when John J. Frey was hound over to
the district court In the sum of $1,000
bonds on the charge of perjury. From
the evidence adduced on the prelim
inary hearing It seems that for a year
previously John J. Frey , a young man
nineteen years of age and a son of a
well-to-do farmer living west of lladar
In this county , was keeping company
with u Miss Clara Cottrell whoso pa
rents are also in very good circum
stances. An old justice of the peace
statute book of the vintage of 18711
or thereabouts fell Into the hands of
the young couple and believing In
every one being his own lawyer the
loving pair decided that parental ob
jections could not bo successfully In-
loriKised under Nebraska laws If the
miss was over the age of sixteen.
Consequently on January 28 , 1907 ,
John J. Frey appeared In person be
fore County Judge Kelley and made
affidavit that ho was over the ago of
twenty-one years and that his fiance
was over the ago of eighteen years
and thereupon procured a marriage li
cense and on the same day was mar
ried to his sixteen-year-old sweetheart.
Trouble between the families of the
contracting parties was quickly brewing
ing and a number ( > f civil suits have
already been commenced. Sympathy
Is about equally divided between the
warring factions and the September
term of court will bo Impatiently wait
ed for by both the litigants as well as
the lawyers who will probably have
farms to rent when the storm has
passed over.
And to cap the climax of the whole
affair , it Is said that Frey Intends , af
ter he Is through with this scrape , to
sue the girl's father for alienating his
wife's affections.
District court adjourned after two
days of jury work In which jury trials
only included potty amounts. Mrs.
Relda Clew of Plalnview , being the
only criminal case , was cleared of the
charge of administering a drug to one
Mattlc Rail with intent to procure an
abortion. Mattlo Hall having been
the complainant was touched with a
sympathetic stroke and relused to sub
stantiate her charge previously made
and the defendant was acquitted by
the jury.

FINDS JAIL INCONVENIENT.
Fairfax Editor Writes Unique Letter
From County Baotlle.
Gregory County Jnll Very Poorly
Ventilated ; Completely Inadequate In
Every Way- Dirty and Inconvenient
Kali-fax , S. D. . March 27. IJI07 Dear
Friend : AH yon will HOC by the headIng -
Ing of HUH letter , 1 am an Ininale of
the building not much bigger than
an ordinary coal rfhod which thlH
county dignifies by Iho mime of coun
ty jail. Now ju.st a lltllo explanation :
You who Imvo been reading my
paper , will remember that hint fall I
made a campaign for better men to
fill county oIllccH. In a great meamiro
1 WIIH RiiccpRHful and take pride In
the fact that I iiRHlstod In electing men
whom I believe are men of Integrity.
One of the men whom 1 helped to de
feat , wan Fred llutton , republican can
didate for Hljeriff. You all know the
charges I made , HO there IH no UHe of
rehearflliig them here. Sulllce It to
say , that Mr. Huston felt himself very
much aggrieved and thinking to make
campaign ammunition out of the af
fair , he started a criminal libel null
agaliiHt me and secured an Injunction
from the circuit court , ordering and
restraining mo from making any
"false or malicious" HtutemeiitH about
this wonld-bo HhorlfT. You will alwo re
member that my paper kept on In Its
Independent campaign for right mon
and rlk'lit , moiiHtiroH.
Mr. Doherty , republican candidate
for Hlato'B attorney , also started a
criminal libel .suit against me.
These men both hired the Hamo at
torney , one W. J. Hooper of Bonesteel.
Hooper served a KiiminoiiH upon mo ,
which demanded that I make and
serve an answer on him at his otllco
In Bonesteol , within thirty days from
service on me.
Thin I attempted In good faith to
do. The answers In both cases were
executed properly and In plenty of
time , and then , through the cnrclcsB'
ness and neglect of the attorney who
had my side of these cases In his care ,
the thirty days time was allowed to
go by without my answers having been
legally served. At least that Is the
ruling of Judge Smith of this circuit.
I contend differently , however , and
am fighting the cane.
Be that as It may , default judgments
were granted against me by the court
In both cases. Huston Immediately
placed his judgment on file , took an
execution and It was returned by the
cherlff , wholly unsatisfied. Thereupon
Judge Smith Issued nn order commit
ting me to prison , and that's where I
am at the present time , and will bo ,
probably , until my attorneys get the
supreme court to work on my case ,
which I hope will be soon.
I am today a man who Is locked in
prison , without being given a chance
to submit my proofs , for on my mo
tion to re-open the case , Judge Smith
turned me down. The matter will be
straightened out , however , but in the
meantime I am In jail , unable to make
any money out of my business , which
Is in the hands of a young man not at
all acquainted with the office or bust
ness.
Then , too , the work I did last fall
was for the benefit of the residents
and tax-payers of Gregory county
They showed that they believed it then
by giving nice majorities to the op
ponents of Huston and Doherty. I
spent over $300 in that campaign In
just getting Information and assuring
myself of the truth of my accusations
before I ever made a statement.
Now I ask that the * people for whoso
benefit I spent my money , labor and
am now giving up oven my liberty
she wngaln that they appreciate mj
efforts In their behalf.
