The Garni of Li Grippe arc Con veyod Through the Atmosphere. No one can ascspe the la grippe germ, because when aa epidemic of the disease Is prevailing the air Is laden with It. The reason that everyone does not have the disease at tbe aame time is because the persons who are enjoying perfect health are able to successfully resist and throw off the Infection, while those who for any reason are not in tbe best of health, fall "dy victims. f. The first symptoms are those of acute catarrh, resembling a hard cold, and if prompt treatment la applied at this time It can be easily broken up; one of ths best remedies at this. stage la Stuart's Catarrh Tableta. sold by druggists everywhere, and it taken freely, say one tablet every hour er two fjr two or three daya, the danger of pneumonia and aerloua complications will be averted. The Rev. L E. Palmer. Bapttat clergy man of Cereaco, Mica., makes a statement et Interest to all catarrh and grip sufferers. He says: "Stuart's Catarrh Tableta have certainly been a blessing to me. I have used tbem freely this fsll and winter and have found them a aateguard against Grippe and catarrhal troubles, from which 1 have suffered for yeara. I feel that I caa freely and conscientiously recommend them." Persona who sutler from catarrh of the head and throat are very susceptible to La Grippe and such will find s plcsani, cob. venlent and safe remedy In this new ca tarrh cure. 8tuart's Catarrh Tablets are composed entirely of barmltoo antiseptics and may be used aa freely as necessary, aa they centals no cocaine, opiate or poisonous rug, at aa klAd. length of office of the councilman at two years. The legal questions Involved were thoroughly examined by the city attorney and In bis opinion the ordinance solves the difficulty. As originally Introduced the bill for the government of cities of ths second class hsvlng over t.000 population provided that the council men should bold their offices for two years, one-half of them to be elected each year, but this provision waa stricken out In tbe committee.

Running for councilman on tbe ticket ot party that Is hopelessly in the minority is an honor that was declined today by Will H. Love, who was chosen by the fu Rlonlsts for alderrnanic candidate in tin Fourth ward. This is one of tbe wards in which the fusionlsts planned to concentrate tbeir efforts. It was supposed that a alight factional opposition to John S. Bishop, tbe republican candidate, would give their nominee a big advantage, but a little In vestigation demonstrated the fallacy of their presumption, and after talking the matter over with some of tbe democratic and popu list leaders of the city, Mr. Love today an nounced hla intention of withdrawing from the race. Mr. Love waa the beet known man on the ticket and hla withdrawal will Injure those candidates who remain faithful to tbe cause. He la grand keeper of records and seal for tbe Knights of Pythias of Nebraska, and In declining the nomination said that hla duties In this capacity would prevent him from devoting any time to campaign work. Faaloalata Badly Demoralised. The fusloaista are badly demoralised In this city. Tbey bad hoped to elect council- men in the First, Third and Fourth warda. but It la now almost a foregone conclusion that they have no chance of success in any but the' First ward, and in that district tbe leaders are In dispute aa to ths quallfl catlona of their nominee, Robert Malone. There are now two vacancies In their list of alderrnanic nominees and onty one can didate has been named tor a city office. All Indications point to an overwhelming victory for the republicans, with very likely an Increased majority. In some of tbe wards the vote may be close, but it Is con ceded that at least five of the seven repub lican candidates for council will be elected. Experlmeats with Oats. Tbe following bulletin regarding reaults of experiments with two varieties of oata, has been issued by the Nebraska Experiment station: In the spring of 1901, two varieties ot oats from among those grown at tbe ex periment station were aelected for distri bution to co-operative experimenters who bad on previous occasions carefully con ducted cxperlmenta in co-operation with the station and bad made accurate re ports. The oata sent out I to test were both Russlsn varieties that had been Im ported aome years before and had become adapted to the region and improved while being grown here. Ths variety designated aa university No. 1, waa selected on account of Its ability to make a crop on a very limited amount ot moisture and In a ' hot season. These are the two moat unfavor able conditions for the oat plant and great resistance to them In any variety la seldom found, especially in a wbite oat. Tbe oat in question has a short upright stem open panicle a small white berry with thin nun. and matures earlier than any variety we bave grown at the experiment atatlon. Unt verslty oat No. 2, la a taller crowing, later maturing oat, with a larger, plump berry, and Is much less drouth reslstent, but hat less tendency to lodge than other large varieties grown at the station. Results obtained at the station indi cate that the university No. 1 would be a valuable variety for the central part of tbe atate and tbat university No. 2. would be best adapted to the eastern, and particularly the northern portion, but it la not ot aa much promise aa tbe other.
