Monday Kllroy came to Lincoln and his
business kept him here until Tuesday
evening. When ho returned his wife told
him that Rodgcrs had entered her room
Monday night by breaking down a window
screen nnd, taking advantage of her help
lessness, had assaulted her. When he
heard the story Kllroy seized his revolver
and went to a cornfield, where Hodgcrs
was riding a cultivator. Pointing tho re
volver at his head he told Dodgers that
he was going to kill him. Kllroy looked
at him a moment and with a revolver still
pointed nt his head commanded him to go
to the house. Uodgers obeyed and Kllroy
followed a few paces behind, keeping him
covered with the revolver. At tho farm
house Kllroy and his wife confronted the
man and the former demanded of each In
turn whether they' had sustained any crim
inal relations with each other, rtodgers
replied affirmatively, and instantly Kllroy
fired a ,nhot, tho ball entering the left
side of the face, Immediately below the
check bone, nnd taking a downward course.
Hodgcrs staggered to a neighbor's house,
and remained there until Dr. Haggard of
this city came to remove him to the hos
pital. The shooting was reported to the county
authorities und Prosecuting Attorney Cald

him when ho returned. Uut Rodgera was
fearless and he remained at the farm.

sisting that she knew he was coming and
In fact had asked him to coma as soon as
tho children fell asleep. He says he did
not tehr away the screen, but walked
through tho communicating door between

Word Liar Vaed In Court.
The fourth day's proceedings in the ac
tion brought in county court by Attorney
Frank M. Tyrrell to recover $750 which he
alleges Is due him for legal services In
behalf of tho Bankers Union resulted In
heated language being used by the plaintiff
In the suit. Attorney Pettis had Insinuated
In the Schlitz brew-
ery cleanliness is car
ried to extremes. We
da more than is neces
sary to be certain of
doing enough:
The caldrons in
which the beer is
brewed are kept scru
pulously clean and
covered. The air in
which the beer is
cooled is filtered.
The barrels in which
it is stored are cleaned
with steam and soda,
then glazed with rosin
op the inside, then
cleaned again. The
bottles are cleaned
with utmost precaution.
Still we filterthe beer,
then sterilize every
bottle, for the slightest
uncleanliness taints
the whole product. It
is in these ways that
Schlitz beer hasgained
its reputation for pur
ity, and made Milwau
kee famous.

NEBRASKA WAR HORSES

RENEWED ACTIVITY ON THE RAN8ES
Man' Best Krlrnd Drains to nealn
Ills l.ont I'rrillsr-Western Stock
men More llopcfnl for
Good Trices.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, June 27. (Special.) During
the last two years Nebraska farmers and
stockmen have, sold to England over 2,000
horses for service In the war In South
Africa. The price puld has varied from
$30 to $00, but the general average has
been IJ5 per head. Most o. tho horses
came from the Western part ot tho state
and were told at South Omaha or Kaunas
City, where the English purchasing agents
malntailitd headquarters. There Is still a
good (lemiud for tho tough animals known
as "war horses." The dealing Just now Is
Inactive, bJt It Is said that the purchasing
season will soon open und that thcro will
be a ready market for all horses that can
bo supplied.
When England began purchasing horses
In America the agents demanded young,
thoroughbred animals and tho price paid
sometimes went as high as $100, but they
took only animals that were selected with
great care, and wcro sound in every bone
nnd fiber. The cxtrnvagance of these opera
tions was soon demonstrated and the Eng
llsh agents in America were Instructed to
bo less particular In selecting the animals.
Horses are extremely sensitive to climatic
changes and conditions and It was found
that even the best American horses could
survive only about six weeks of active
service In tho South African war. The
agents began experimenting 'with common
stock and it was found that the ordinary
plains or range horses from Nebraska,
Wyoming, Montana or other western terri
tory could do Just as effective work and
live as long In South Africa as the high-
priced thoroughbred horse.
Invention Dnmnae Ilnalneaa.
"With the exception of the traffic with
England there has been comparatively no
activity In the horse business for several
years past," said a western stockman
'Until a few years ago horseralslng was a
profitable business, but suddenly there was
a change and prices fell so low that It be
came a losing occupation. This change
came about the time there was so much
talk about electric street cars, automobiles
and ether Inventions designed to do away
with horses. People began to think that
tho horse would soon pass out ot exist
enco and consequently they refused to pay
the usual prices. The stockmen soon felt
the decline and they were forced to allow
their horses to run wild. Today there are
thousands of first-class horses on tho west
ern ranges that are no more tho property
of any man than the wild beast that In
habits the mountain. They are not branded
and they do not belong In any particular
community.
"Recently, however, there have been signs
of renewed -activity and It would not sur
prise us It prices took an upward turn
sometime In the near future."
Oil and On Under Dine River.
People living In and near Milford claim
that they have discovered signs of oil or
gas beneath the Blue river in their vi
cinity. Similar signs have been noticed
at Nebraska City .and at both places move
ments have been started to sink deep wells
for the purpose of ascertaining whether
their hopes are well grounded. '
At Nebraska City a subscription fund
has been startef to defray the expenses of
sinking the well and J. Sterling Morton
was tho first to show his enthusiasm In a
substantial way 'by donating $500. Frank
L. Burdlck, manager, of a provision house
In that city, is said to have been the first
to discover tho presence of scums of oil
on tho Ice on the Missouri river. An ex
amination showed almost conclusively that'
they did not como from sewerage, hence
the belief that they originated from a
natural source below the river bed.
Little spots of oil, similar to those seen
at Nebraska City, frequently appear on the
Blue river at Milford. They burn perfectly
when lighted and are considered by the
people In the community to be undeniable
evidence of the presence of oil or gas below
the surface.
Deed for State Fair Grounds.
The Board of Public Lands and Buildings
has been given a deed by the Lancaster
County Agricultural association for ten
acrca of land situated within the enclo
sure of the State fair grounds. This Is a
part of the preliminary work ot trans
ferring the fair grounds to the state.
When the state first proposed buying the
State fair site the Lancaster County asso
ciation demanded a good sum tor Its prop
erty and for a while It looked as though
the deal would fall through because ot
Its obstinacy. For many years past the
county has held Its annual exhibit In con
nection with the State fair, excepting, of
course, the years the fair- was held In
Omaha. The arrangement will be contin
ued in the future and the domand ot the
Lancaster association, therefore, had symp
toms ot a holdup. After several days ot
negotiating the association concluded to
donate the property to the state and tho
deed was drawn up and later presented
to the state board.

What Will Taste Good?
The Palate vs. the Stomach.
Tho average woman who considers what
sho shall eat, asks hetsolt, "What will
tasto good7" She rarely remember tlut
the object of eating is to provide nutrition
to sustain the body and that the palate docs
not determine the nutrlt'lve valuo of food.
Tho consequence Is that she makes a
lunch of Ice cream and cuke, helped out by
a little candy and thinks she has been fed.
Instead of that sho has only been nlltd.
Sho has called the dlgestlvo system Into
activity for practically no purpose, except
to ask It to make bricks without straw
to nourish tho body with matettal In which
thcro Is little, If any, nutrition.
It must be said that the men nre not f.u
behind the women In ihjs respect. They
ont plu and doughnuts for lunch bccauno
these "tasto good," without tho sllghteit
regard to the nutritive purpose of eating,
and In general havo not tho least Idea ot
the nutritive value ot tbo food thoy eat.
It Is true that natural food products,
such as fruits, vegetables, etc., appeal to
the palato and tempt It, nnd aro tho better
therefor. The evil Is that In what might
be called artificial foods foods not grown
but manufactured; the palato Is tempted
by flavors, sauces and condiments to Its
own deception, to tho Injury ot the stomach
and the loss ot nutrition. Eat sparingly
ot simple foods at regular times and thcro
will bo little use for doctors. It Is tho
pandering to the palato nt the expense of
the stomach which brings stomach disease
and Its attendant evils.
SPILT MILK.
"Its no uso to cry for split milk" says
the proverb. It Is no use to regret Irregu
lar and careless eating when the mischief
is dono and dyspepsia or some other
form of stomach trouble has fastened Its
hold upon us. The thing to do then la
to cure the" disease, and get, back again
to the old condition ot health.
Tho quickest way to cure Indigestion
and other diseases ot tho stomach and or
gans of digestion and nutrition Is to uso
Dr. Plorcc's Golden Medical Discovery. Its
cures are permanent because they aro per
fect. The cause of disease Is removed and

the body restored to n condltlou ot sound
health.
"I was troubled n long tlmo with dys
pepsia, torpid liver nnd constipation,"
writes Mrs. Julia U. DeiVl, of OatWHlt, Ire
doll Co,, N. C, "could scarce-ly cut any
thing nt nil; would havo nttacks of lulu
something like colic, and sotuotlmcs It
seemed as though I cohld nbt live. I wrote
to Dr. 11. V. Plcrcci slating my condition,
and In a few ilas received a Kind letter
of advice, tclllug mc to uso Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. I took1 four
bottles nnd ono vlnl of Dr. Pltrce's Pleasant
Pellets, and now 1 can eat anything I
want and It don't hurt me. I havo not been
In bed n day since I took your 'Golden
Medical Discovery.' I havo not taken any
medlclno In twelve months. I feci under
lasting obligations to Dr. Plerco for my
good heatth, for well do I know ho Is tho
ono who cured me."
It Is peculiar to Dr. Plcrco's Golden
Medical Discovery that It accomplishes
cures which seem absolutely wondarttit.
Tho test of n superior man Is his ability to
do something which others
havo tried and have failed
In doing. That's tho tost
ot a superior medicine. It
is under this test that tho
astonUhtng curative power
of "Golden Medical Dlsrnv-
cry" becomes evident.
f When doctors nnd other
J medicines fall the uso of
iiic uiscovery results in
a lasting cure. Such a euro
Is Illustrated in the testimo
nial of Mrs. Harrison, which
follows;
. "My sister (of Arlington,
Washington Co., Nobr.)
was taken very sick and.
had. several doctors," writes
A .Mrs. u. i,. Harrison, or KlK
City, Donglns Co.. Nebr.
"They could not do lie r nnv

thoy would not como nny

ii well. FLr hnd 'ivuitlnir
ot the digestive organs.'
My mother iald to my sister,
'Well, I almost know that
Dr. Pierce's medicines will
euro her.' So sho bought six
bottles, threo ot 'Golden
Medical Discovery,' three ot
'Favorite Prescription' and
some of tho 'Pellets;' and
now my ulster Is a well wo
man." "I enn sny to you, ono
bottlo ot your 'Golden Medi
cal Discovery' haB cured mo
ouud and well, atter suffer
ing two Inns years with
stomach disease," wlrtca W. H. Uraswell,
of .McAdcnvlllo. Oaston Co.. N. C. "My
health Is worth nil tho world to mo. I
will pralso you as long as I live."
ARE YOU AN EXCEPTION?
If you have dlsenso ot the stomach and
Its allied organs ot digestion and nutri
tion, and arc not cured by the uso ot Dr.
Piorco's Golden Medical Discovery, you
will be an exception to the rule proved In
over thirty yearn of experience and by tho
euro ot hundreds ot thousands of people.
It mny not cure you. Thero arc two peo
ple In every hundred who aro only helped
but not entirely cured by tho uso of "Gol
den Medical Discovery." You may bo ono
of tho two per cent, instead ot ono ot tho
nlnoty-oight per cent, who aro perfectly
and permanently cured. But tho chances
of cure aro overwhelmingly In your favor.
Sometimes a dealer tempted by a llttlo
moro profit paid on tho salo of less merito
rious medicines will offer tho customer a
substltuto as being "Just as good" as the
"Discovery." Refuso It.
