BIG FUND FOR THE SCHOOLS V Maj Apportionment from Temporary Fund Amount to $1.10 Per PnpiL V - - PREDICTS DEMOCRAT WILL LEAD TICKET fatnee Dalhntaa Coafldent Smrth Will Be dominated for Governor and that the Popallata' Will Endorse Hint. fFrom a SUM Correspondent.) LINCOLN, May IS. (Special.; The aeml nnual apportionment of funds for the pub lie schools of Nebraska will be divided among tne various counties on a basis of $1.10 for each person of school age. The amount to be divided is approalmately $417.. BOO. while the school population Is 377.000. This apportionment is the lamest, with one exception, ever made in this state. A week ago the authorities estimated that the fund would be of sufficient eize to give about $1 for each person of school age, but late re turns from the county treasurers exceeded the most sanguine expectations and brought the total up to over $10,000 greater than estimated. - The largest fund ever apportioned In May gave about $1.20 for each person of school age. That was in 1898, when the fusion reformers strained every effort to collect back interest and bark taxes, but In the following year the apportionment fell off over $100,000, the total being only $332, 111. Dahlnaa Picks Smrth aa Winner, James C. Dahlman, democratic national committeeman tor . Nebraska, was In Lincoln today conferring with political brethren re gardlog the prospects for the party at the forthcoming fusion conventions, which will be held In Grand Island on June 24. "I am confident that a democrat will be nominated for governor," said Mr. Dahl man. "The Indications are that the offices will be divided between, the two parties so that if the democrats take the head of the ticket the remainder will go to the populists. I have traveled over a major portion of the state and have talked with many men of our party and feel safe In predicting the nomination of C. J. Smyth for the governorship. . Will the populists endorse him? I feel that they would be more inclined to endorse him than any other democrat. I am confident Mr. Bryan would not accept the nomination were it tendered to him. "If the democrats can't land the office I look for the nomination of either R. D, Sutherland or W. L. Stark, Both are active In the campaign and the populists will un doubtedly rally to the support of one of them.", , . Watklns Baloa-lses Morton. Albert Watklns addressed the students of the University of Nebraska this morning on the "Distinguishing Characteristics of J. Sterling Morton." He referred to Mr. Morton as the Joel Chandler Harris of the northwest, knowing all the folklore of the region. The salient feature of bis life was the appreciating and holding Out of Ideal. "Frank R. Stockton, Sol Smith Russell, J. Sterling Morton, Amos i. Cummlngs. Potter Palmer, Archbishop Corrlgan, Bret Hart and Admiral Sampson constitute a list that the world cannot lose without painfully missing," declared. Mr. Watklns. "The source of Morton's strength and In fluence consisted- In all animating Individ uallty, powerful egoism and his fighting powers lor what. he thought-was right." Continuing Mr. Watklns said In part: "Morton was not a paragon and he would have, t resented -an kJmnu tat Iad. , nf . aainiahiiv He was o( (lie earth, -very," but very broadly human-tempted like aa we are. This Is why be could be a mentor and a powerful exemplar for human people. It Is -a com mon, but shallow, observation that he al ways advocated whatever he thought was right. This Is misleading and confusing for he was a successful man and the two propositions . are contradictory. Success d particularly his considerable business (access, demanded a' degree of prudence. Prudence Is the floor walker for expediency. It a. rests abstract justice and requires or accept the aurrender of Ideals which complex aoclety agrees are Impracticable. High Imaginings alone will not feed and clothe a concrete family, much less sur round tBem with things' of beauty, and Mr. Morton, did all this, but he was an uncompromising fighter for positions he as sumed and for principles he espoused. As the world loves, a fighter, especially a fighter of skill and - prowess, he gained great prestige. "He was a reservoir of folklore the Joel Chandler Harris of the northwest, with all his Impressionability, his senti ment, bis humor and more than hUrwit. It Is a sad loss to Nebraska, In particular that this perennial fountain, of great pre cepts hid In sweetness and pure pleasure. of pencilled beauty where our duller alght sees naught but shapes uncouth, could have been preserved.", State' Aaks a Costlssasec.

In the mouth, food Is masticated and mixed with sallTa containing- a dlgestant called ptyalin. In the stomach, it la acted upon by gastric Juice containing pepsin, which digests albuminous foods. In the intestines, pancreatln is added to digest fats and starches. - Indigestion always indicates an insufficient amount of one or all of these dlgestant. At first thought 1t seems proper to abstain from foods not easily digested; but reflection shows os that while this affords relief by giving the weakened organs less to do, it only makes them weaker by giving them less nourishment.
