A coal famine is Impending at the Lin coln hospital for the Insane. The supply has dwindled uttll but a few hundred pounds were left In the bins at 5 o'clock last night and a car which bad been promised had not appeared on the scene. The peril at this Institution ia real and the officials no longer deny It. There are many acres ot floor space to be heated and It requires on a day such as yesterday from thirty to thirty-live Ions for tbt twenty-four hours to keep the rooms of the patients at a habitable temperature. , It Is said by the authorities that 100 car loads of coal are on the way to this city. The dealer who supplies the Instltu tion has declared that ho will give th coal that comes In first to the Insane hos pital If he has to haul it by wagon from the city. The outlook for a severe snow storm and the possibility that the t radio on the railroads may be blocked has given rise to great apprehension that, despite all that can be done, the Institution will be left without the means of keeping the pa tlcnts warm. It is said by the authorities that It will be a dtfferout matter to pre vent an epidemic of sickness should such a contingency arise. Wants Divorce Set Aside.

Fowler, auperlntendent of Instruc tion, In the advance sheets ot his report, which will be concluded by the first of the year, makes the following recommenda tion!: 1. Exchange the Industrial School for Boys at Kearney with the. State Normal school at Pen. 2. Establish a new Normal school at Lin coln. . . . 3. Provide for Junior normal schools at Alliance and McCook. 4. Recognise more liberally the flrst-claas private normal schools and denominational colleges of high standard. In support of the first recommendation, that Is, an exchange of the - Kearney nnd the Peru Institutions, he calls attention to- the distance, lack of railroad facilities and the expense In reaching Peru aa ob- tacles to a large attendence of student there. Ot the normal school he said: "The chief mission ot the normal school Is to pre pare teachers for the rural or country schools and for the grades In town and city schools. It la the duty ot the state uperlntendent to give special attention to the rural schools. It comes with poor grace for those of us who are fortunately aituated and who can send our children to the best graded schools equipped with all the modern Improvements and in charge of trained teachers directed by expert su perintendents to advocate a policy which deprives the farmer boy and th farmer girl of all these matchless opportunities. Nebraska employs annually over 9,000 teach ers, but only 8,000 of this number teach in the graded schools of the state, includ ing all cities and the villages, large and mall, that employ two or more teachers. Were those who' . still oppose normal schools to go Into the rural schools of cen tral and western Nebraska, without a pre declston of the question, and make a care ful study of the actual conditions of thou sands of theae rural schoola, they would be ardent advocates of more normal schools for Nebraska.

TAKES DOSE OF WOOD ALCOHOL Fremont Man Tlrea of Life and Makes an Attempt to Knl It All. FREMONT, Neb., Dec. 12. (Special.) Enos Rush, who resides at 122 South Hom ers avenue, made an uosuccesnful attempt to commit suicide Wednesday night by drinking wood alcohol. Wednesday after noon he was around town pretty drunk and went homo late just about able to travel. I As soon as he got home he took a big drink of wood alcohol. He drank so much that It made him sick at his stomach and he threw It up.

(Special. )- The December term of the district court has been In Besslon all this week, with Judge Harrington presiding. Thrre are 100 civil and fourteen criminal cases on the docket. More than halt of the criminal cases are where parties are charged with 111 ..ll.l... . VJlAHA The most amusing case tried thus far my own experience as to Its efflca:y and good tonic waa where the noted Jules A. Sandos was nronertles causes me to recommena II lO ail persons. charged with an assault on s couple of i and you are at liberty to use this endorsement and my his neighbors. He had a trial before the Bnotoanh f t will give any force to same." -James n. florgan. rmintv turira unit was found rulltv and v fined $50 and costs. He -wss not satisfied and appealed hla case. -When the oaae was called he bad no counsel, but he stated he was ready for trials He vainly tried to get counsel to defend, trim, but failed, and at last he appealed to' the court, who in formed him that as It -was a misdemeanor he could not appoint counsel for him, eveu though he made the proper showing, but the court intimated that he would have no trouble tn getting counsel to defend him by paying a reasonable fee. Sandos finally stood up and, turning to the law yers sitting about,' and in a dramatic way said. "Will any of you liars defend me? No one spoke, and at last 8andos walked over to Attorney Easley and arranged with blm to defend him. He did so In as able a way as he could, but after the jury got tho evidence and instructions they promptly found Jules guilty. He was asked if he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed. He at once broke the silence with an outburst of eloquence In" defense of himself and in denunciation of the wit neases against him and the county attorney and told the court he was poor and aske that the punishment be as "light as can be, and then, judge, I get 'out AmerlcA nnd go north, where the word of perjurers will not be taken." The court fined blm $100 and costs. As Sandos was being taken to the county Jail he said in a most pathetic way: "My God, sheriff, this was awfu! bad. When I come from my native Swlts- erland to this free America I thought 1 go to congress, and now look at me I go to Jail." Sandos, it will be remembered, is the brilliant genus who aa postmaster of Sandos, ia this county, took it upon him self to increase the circulating medium by Issuing postal notes. When be was arrested and taken to Omaha bis showing was so ingenious that the authorities let him off with the promise that he redeem the notes, which he did as they were pre sented. The next case was where one Raymond Smith, a ha If breed Indian, was charged with breaking into a hotel in Gorden with an attempt to commit assault on a young woman. After the Jury was Impaneled and one of the wttneases for the state sworn he changed his plea of not guilty to one of guilty, and he waa given one year In the penitentiary. It aeema that he was at one time very prominent among the Sioux nation. He represented them on several occasions before the Interior department at Washington ia presenting their grievances, The next case Is where Al Hover, a prom inent ranchman, residing close to the reser vation, Is charged with receiving stolen horses, . knowing them to be stolen, and with, hiring Indians to steal horses for him from other Indians. This will be hotly contested. Catarrh of the Head Which Affected Hearing Cured by Pe-ru-na. Mr. J. Emlle Taneimv, No. 932 Jnhn street. Quobrc.

Every cold snap leaves In Its trail thou ands of caRea of catarrh, many of whom i'or want of an eflectlve remedy, will suf fer from this disease the rest of their liven. Is there anything that can be done to prevent all this? In the first place, Peruna ied at the proper time will prevent taking cold. In the second place, Peruna will cure a cold in from two to five days. Again, Peruna will cure catarrh quickly In the first stages, and finally Peruna will also cure chronic catarrh, if used properly and persistently. , Peruna kept In the house and prop erly used will therefore not only act as a safeguard against the ailments which result from sudden cold waves, but will also prove a sure remedy for this class of ailments.
