hand protruding. Louia Smith, who waa
skating on the creek, noticed the hand, ami
cotlfled the resident! of that vicinity.
Among those who went to aBKitt In re
moving the body from the Ice was the
husband of the wjman. In walking on the
ice, he allpped tnd fell and atruck the
Ice near the body of hla wife. He waa
rendered unconscious and It waa thought
at first that he waa dead. He was taken
to his home, where he remained uncon
scious for several hours.
Mrs. Dolan's body was frozen stiff and
the Ice clung to her clothing sfter It was
removed from the creek. The water at
the place where the body was found is not
more than one foot deep and 11 Is sup
posed Mrs. Dolan fell through the Ice as
she was attempting to cross the creek.
She was 5 years of age and for some
time hsd been slightly demented. She din
appeared from her home Wednesday night.
A search was made for some trace of her,
but no one had seen her since she left her
home until today. Her husband ia a pioneer
citizen of Lincoln and is a laborer. No
Inqaest will be held. The family resides
t 101 E street, a short distance from
where the body was found.
Hllla Will Get Pardon.
As matters now stand it seems that
Rowland P. Hills is not long destined to
disappointment as the result of the error
made In the commutation of his sentence.
Referring to the matter, L. A. Williams
cf Blair today gave out the following state
ment: "Ooverpor Savage consented to commute
the Hills sentence as a personal favor to
me and while an error waa made In fig
uring out the dates, that will in no way
affect the result. Private Secretary Clsn
cey Is In Wisconsin on a vacation trip and
when he returns the matter will be cor
rected. Mr. Hills waa arrested on April
21, 1900, and waa confined In the county
Jail at Blair until August 9,1901, at which
time he wss brought to Lincoln, where ha
remained in the penitentiary until paroled
on August 11 lsst. Since his parole he has
been constantly engaged and has recently
been tendered the position of secretary
for the Metal Mining company at Salt
Lake City. This position he will accept
as soon as he can get matters here closed
tip. He has received his divorce from his
English wife, the divorce having been
granted by Judge Day In Douglas county
some time ago. When be can legally do so
he will remarry his second wife, who Is
now with her parents at Florence."
Wanted to Be with Mother.
Further Investigation of the suicide of
Adclbert Lemon, the 10-year-old Bethany
boy, leads to the belief that he shot him
self because he desired to be with his
mother, who died some time ago. He re
sided with his father. Rev. H. A. Lemon,
and hla step-mother. Last Wednesday he
was playing In the yard and frequently
went Into the bouse to get warm. His step
mother spoke to him several times about
ratmlng'tn and otit of the house. The last
time he went Into the house he told his
step-mother that he had not come in to
get warm, and Immediately went out Into
the yard with his gun. A fsw moments
later the report of the shot wss heard.
He waa at once carried into the house, and
upon being questioned as to bow the shoot
ing occurred, said: "I did It on purpose.
Now I will go to see mamma."
The boy later stated that he bad con
templated the deed for several weeks, as
his uncle had taken his lite. The funeral
occurred at t o'clock this afternoon.

Finds Cattle All Rlarht.
State Veterinarian Thomas, who has Just
returned from Scotts Bluff county, reports
that after a critical examination Into the
conditions prevailing In the western end of
the stste he finds the cattle Industry in ex
cellent condition. This tends to relieve
the alarm that has been created by the re
ports sent out to the press concerning the
condition of the ranges In Wyoming and
Colorado. The snow Injures the grass for
forsge purposes to a certain extent, but
the Nebraska-ranchmen are awakening to
the need for the exercise of mote fore
sight and less dependence on provldenco to
safeguard their herds and keep them
through the winter. He saw much stacked
hay that had been put up in preparation
for the winter. He did not see any herds
that appeared to be suffering from the
stress of the weather and heard no stories
of distress among the ranchmen on tho
Nebraska side of the line.

provident people will, for the neglect of

the needless suffering and foolish expense

A Family Medicine.
L. O. Summersett, edltor.of "The Messen
ger," RPi rtahk, N. J., writes The Teruua
Medicine Co. as follows:
Gentlemen "I certainly feel grateful to
vou for putting such a great catsrrh rem
edy on the market. I believe that more
than half the people with whom I come
In contact have catarrh In some form and I
don't see why more of them don't use Pe

"Myself and family were all sick a few
days ago with stomach trouble and used
Peruna with very satisfactory results and
at one-third the cost It would have been

possibly have prescribed a better remedy
than reruna."

"We Will Xot Do Withont I'ernnn."
Mr. James A. Stalls, Otego, 111., writes:
"I can say that Peruna has cured my four-year-old
boy of the tonsllltls, and that of
the worst stage. Ho had It last winter,
and I took him to three of the best doc
tors and got no relief. When I took him
to the fourth his tonsils were so Inflamed
that blood was running out of them. The
doctor said he could reduce them, so I
used his medicine for four or five v.-ecks
and the boy got but very little better.
There was a week or two that we thought
he would cholte to death in spite of all we
could do.
"In looking over your almanac I saw
Peruna recommended for throat trouble, so
I wrote to Dr. Hartman In regard to ray
boy's throat. He recommended Peruna.
and In leas than two months his throat was
well. I got one bottle of Peruna and It
cured him sound and well. We will not do
without It and will use It for all throat
and lung trouble."

I am feeling splendid and have never felt

"Through the advice of a friend I tried

T. J. Walden, of Jnmestown, N. Y., writes
as follows to Dr. Hartman:
"Peruna Is curing my wife of femsle
trouble, and we both declare Peruna to be
the grandest medicine on earth and It will
always be a household remedy with us.
"Before tnklng your lu.-.tmcnt I had not
done a oay's work for twelve weeks."
T. J. WALDEN.
As soon as tho value of Peruna Is fully
appreciated by every household, both
as a preventive and cure of these af
fections, tens of thousands of lives
will be saved, and hundreds of thou
sands of chronic, lingering cases of dis
ease prevented. Peruna Is' a house
bold safeguard.
