TIIE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1902. 3 ABANDONS VETERAN ROSTER Sute Find it Impracticable to Keep Lilt of 8oldien and Bailors. ELL TORRENCE AT THE ENCAMPMENT Dal Likely ta Be Postponed to En able Him Attend Lincoln to Have Credit A elattoa. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March 14. (Special.) Tha Ute printing board, acting with the ad vice of Commander Wilcox and Asslstsnt Howe of the Grand Army of the Republic, has decided to discontinue the practice of printing a biennial taster of soldier and aallor veterans of the state. This conclu sion was reached after It was found Im possible to obtain a complete, accurate list of the veterans. The law makes It the duty of Us assessors to collect the Information, but provides no compensation for the work, and It was discovered that In nearly every case a large number of namea were omitted from the reports returned to the secretary of state. The assessors last year returned the Barnes of approximately 10,000 vet erans and It Is believed that this list Is short not less than ,000. Some counties refused to enroll the names and others sent Hats that were admitted to be incorrect. "The board thought It better to publish m roster at all than to send out one that Is known to bo Incomplete," said Deputy Secretary of ovale McCartney. "It is true that the law require the assessors to do the work, but many refused point blank to obey and we' did not think we could gain very much by resorting to mandamus pro ceedings. The officers of the Nebraska de partment of the Oraad Army of the Repub lic were consulted and they agreed with the members of the board that the publication of an Incorrect roster would be a useless expenditure of funds. They say they can gather the Information through the agency of their poets and do the work at a small expense." Torravaca at Nebraska Encampment. The state officers of the Grand Army of the Republic have announced tbat Na Jlonat Commander Ell Torrance will attend the atate encampment of the department this year if It Is postponed one week, to begin May 22 Instesd of Msy 17. Assistant Commander Howe Is sending a special order to the various posts notifying them of the condition and asking them to vote on the proposition of postponement. Ell Torrance has accepted other Invitations for the week of the Nebraska encampment as now sched uled, but says be ran arrange to be present a week later. Each post in good standing and each commander will be entitled to one vote. Mr. Howe's orders are as follows: Comrades; the rules and' regulations of the Grand Army fixea the date of our en campment on the second Wednesday In May of each year, which comes on the 14lt'ls always desirable and a great pleas ure to have our national officers with us on these occasions. Your commander has ex tended a cordial Invitation and has re ceived a reply from General Ell Torrance, our national commander, and General 8. H. Kowler sending their regrets and inform ing this department thHt their time was lully engaged up to May 22, when they would be pleased to come from the Iowa encampment to this and asking us to change date to May 22. This your commander cannot do, until a majority of the poets In this department are given the opportunity to express them selves. It Is the desire of your commander to have these distinguished comrades pres ent, to encourage and assist our depart ment. No material damage can possibly occur by reason of one week's change and much good can. be accomplished. There for the onunrer.ubmlts the following proposition ve V .-'. You will canvass your members and re turn the ballot herewith enclosed to the A. A. O. On or before the first day of April, 1902. Inclosed you will find blank ballot. Lincoln Credit Association.

All I ask la the same of a sick one simply a postal, stating which book I shall' send. I wish to explain a treatment that I spent a lifetime la learning. Then let the sick one decide If he wants It," If ha tries It, and it falls, I will pay every penny of the cast. I will do this at the start: I will send the sick one aa order on hie or her druggist for six bottles of Dr. 8hoop'a Restorative. I will tall that druggist to let him teat It for a month at my risk. If It succeeds, the cost is $5.50.- If It fails, I will pay the druggist myself. I will leave the declsloa ta you. ' Don't misjudge my offer, for I do Just as I say. I leave tba matter to your honor. Tou could cheat me. If you would; but I trust you. I ask in ratura your conSdence. There is no possible way la which I could bo unfair with you. Ia the past five yaars, I have furnished my treatment to over half a -mlllloa people la Just til's way. My records show that 19 la each 40 paid . for it. thereby admitting tLit It did what I claim.

But I bring back the aerva ; power which makea that orgaa act I give it tha strength to do its duty aerva strength. ' I know from a vast axperiencs that In most chronic diseases there la ao other way to get well. With any other remedy, tha plaa which I offer would bankrupt tha man who made it. Yet I cannot always succeed. Some of these troubles have causes, like cancer, which ao man caa cure. But those conditions are rare; and whoa a failure occurs. I alone am tha loser. The patleat la at least aa well aa ha was, and not a penny tha poorer. If a maa promised you wealth without tha risk of a penny, how quick you would grasp it.

"When they gave me as their opinion that ha was simply weak-minded, but able to distinguish be tween right and wrong I determined to push the esse." "As announced heretofore, the trial of C. E.

Joseph ssloon keeper who disappeared a tew days ago, appeared today when the trial of Stewart Fife for tho murder of Frank W. Richardson was resumed and gave damaging testimony against the defendant. Norrls was found last night by detectives at Lake Contrary, nesr here. When be wss called to the stand today he admitted having been in hiding. Norrls, in answer to questions, admitted having known Fife, whom, he said, had visited his saloon frequently. He had been In his saloon aoout December 1, 1900, a month before Richardson waa killed. What did he say about Mr. Richardson? He wa pretty drunk, said Norrls. He talked to me about the trouble he was hav ing with Richardson. Fife told me tbat Richardson had abused him before the other clerks. He said Richardson told him "If this Is not stotDed I will kill you Fife told me that he Intended to protect himself even If he had to kill Richardson. Was Richardson Jealous of Fife and his wirer Fife did not come riaht out and say so. He said If anything happened before the nrsi ot tne year x neea not do surprisea Norrls said Fife showed him a revolver when ha said he was going to protect him self if Richardson abused him aglu. At every question asked of Norrls the da fendant's attorney objected strenuously. His evidence. It developed, was wholly uu like that given before the grand Jury. Tha Jury wss sent out and Norrls was examined and cross-examined. Norrls explained It by saying that he was drunk when ha testified before the first grand Jury and that ho had been drinking some when ha went before the last grand Jury. Other Adverse Testlaaaay.

Lacy told of seeing Fife in a saloon a few minutes after Richardson was killed, and of telling him tbat Rlcherdson had committed suicide. Fits had asked: "Is ha dead." Several witnesses testified to having seen Fifa and Mrs. Richardson together on the street at different times before the murder.
