HOLDS UP A HANGING BILL Warden Bee m or Havinp Much Trouble to Becnre Eii Mirej. DATES OF NEBRASKA NORMAL INSTITUTES Cblldrea Who Were seat to Homo for Aasloae to Find Their Porente. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, June (.(Special.) The Nieg tnflnd ghost hasn't walked yet, and the probabilities are that It will not walk until the next legislature meets, and those whs expect to get money for helping Nleglnflnd on his journey will likely wait until the next leKlnlsture loosens the reins and starts his ghostshlp. Today Deputy Auditor Anthes refused to Issue the war rant for the $253.fl0 to pay the expenses of the execution. The sudttor wants to know a little more about the matter first. Tha Board of Publlo Lands and Buildings did not say from whst fund the bills was to be paid, nor for what purpose the $160 Item marked "for allowance of board" was for. It Is the opinion, of the deputy auditor that the next legislature will have to create a fund from which to pay the ex penses of executions, and unless the board finds some way around It, the auditor probably will not only refuse to draw a warrant for $160 to Mr. Beemer, but will refuse also to Issue a warrant for the 153.80 for George Stryker, the Omaha deputy sheriff, and the ViO for the scaffold. Nteginflnd's execution has certainly caused considerable trouble all along the line. After he had been started celestial ward the undertaker exhibited his body, which csused considerable comment and threats of executive Interference. Then along came the settlement. Warden Beemer first sent In his bill for the 3O0. of which 1103. 80 wss Itemised. This was sent back to him by the board for more details. The bill came back as It was at first, and the 1300 was allowed by the board. At an ad journed meeting, however, held yesterday, the board cut down the bill Just 150. .It also fixed the rate for hanging at 1150, and all expenses to be paid out of that sum by the warden. The auditor did the rest. Dates of Hormals. State Superintendent Fowler has Issued a pamphlet containing the date and places of holding the various county Institutes and the state examinations.

Many believe that the doctor has some oharm or antiseptic which protects him. Dr. Hartman lately made the truth of this matter public, that all might leallze Its beneflt. Contagious diseases are conveyed by minute organ isms, known as disease germs. These germs And their entrance Into the system through the mucous membrane. If the mucous membrane is healthy they cannot get Into the system. It (i:e mucous mem brane is affected by catarrh the germs find easy access. Catarrhal accretions furnish exactly the material upon which the) thrive and multiply. To get rid of the catarrh and thus preserve the mucous membrane healthy Is the only way to be safe from contagious diseases. This ex plains why It Is that wrae people catch diseases easier than othsrs. Every one Is exposed Just the same. Not every one, however, falls a victim to con from Kearney county for six years for embezzlement, was paroled. The total number of convicts booked in the broom shops May SI was 182. Looking; for Their Parents. Several parties In Lincoln interested In the Inmates of the Home for, the Friend less are very desirous of locating a man named Demorest, or Mrs. Demorest, who at one time lived in Omaha and may live there now. About sixteen years ago the man and his wife separated and their Ave children became Inmates of the Home for the Friendless. Since that time one of the children died, three have left the home and one remains. Of these children living three are girls and one Is a boy. Those who have left the home are doing well and reside In Oregon and Nebraska and their addresses are known to the officers of the society. The children now desire to find their parents or either of them. The first name of the father Is not known, but If a man by the name of Demorest Is still living and ha la the father of the five chil dren he cannot put his hands on, he Is re quested to write to Mrs. H. A. Cabcock, Lincoln, or some member of the society. ManVger Ruth of the Standard Oil com pany was In Lincoln today with a force of men putting on the right end two tanks, the property of the company, which were tumbled over and tossed about by the recent high water and wind. The tanks were empty and were stationed on Four teenth street scross the tracks. Both were blown over and one was rolled several feet from the foundation and lodged against a fence.
