(From a Staff .Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. March 14. trlpeiial.t Some
one vidcntly blundered when th
tilato Hoard of public IjUtnU and Hulld
Iurs Hdoptcd the spetillciitions for the build
ing of the Norfolk asylum. In Unit the
speclnentlons provide that the contractor
hall he nlloed tu use any of the "tone
or brick In the old building. Notwith
standing Treasurer Mortensen stopped the
Contractor from tearing down the wiM
wing of the building and the board recently
dnpted a resolution that the contractor
cannot tie the brick and "tone In that
wing, the specifications provide that lie
can.
' The coot of stone and brick on the ground
would be ' considerably ' lts to the con
tractor than fliat .-"hipped In and therefore
the contractor 1 very apt to go ahead and
carry out Ida contract without regard to
the later resolution adopted by the board
It 'a the opinion of some of the board mem
ber, however, that It Will be cheaper to
pay the contractor the difference In cost
of the mntorliil In that part of the building
and the material shipped In and allow It
to remain than to have him tir It down.
This prohahly will be the procedure of
the bi ard. The difference, however, may
not be very much, as the contractor cares
more for the stone tl an be does for the
brick and there Is not much stone to be
hipped.
Set of the Corihcy 'statutes, two volumes
to the set. have been sent nut, from the

Board of Health this morning decided to
hold two examinations to test the ability
of the young men to practice medicine, the
first of whlcn will occur on April 21 and 22
and the second on June 1 and 2. A resotu
tlon was adopted, however, specifying that
next year only one examination would be
held. Considerable feeling exists between
the colleges of the state as to the date of
these examinations, because It Is the desire
of each to have its graduates take the
examinations as soon as they come out of
school. The nrst examination will occur
shortly after the close of the Lincoln Medi
cal college. The questions to be submitted
were also agrred upon and they are said
to be the hardest that could be found.

u quantity of Imported beet seed this week
and will soon begin disposing of It to beet
raisers. The Standard Cattle company w
not put in beets this year, but has leased
nearly ill of Its lands remaining unsold

tion to raise any crop, hut on account of a
favorable clause In their leases It Is ex
pected that beets will be the largest crop
planted by themi The ground around Ames

shape for raising beets and though the
last season was a disastrous one for the
business on account of the crop being
drowned out by heavy ralna there will
probably be an Increased acreage this season.

DEAD WOOD, 8. D., March U (Special.)
Deputy I'nlted States Marshal Beldlng re
turned Wednesday from the Rosebud reser
vation, having In his custody Robert Burns,
a notorious cattle rrtstler and horse thief,
for whom the authorities have been search
ing for mnny months. Burns was ar
rested a few weeks ago by Sheriff Brown of
Gregory county, after a long chase, and
when taken had In his possession eight head
of stolen horses. Sheriff Brown kept Burns
a prisoner in the sheriffs borne for seversl
days, awaiting the arrival of government
officers, and one night while at supper
Burns struck the sheriff with a heavy dish
and made his escspe. He was again taken
into custody by the officers near Rosebud
agency and placed in the guardhouse nt
that place, but escaped by sawing his way
out through the Iron bars of his cell. He
managed to elude the Indian police for a
few days, but was again, arrested, and this
time waa taken to the jail at Valentine,
Neb., for safekeeping. When the deputy
marshal went to bring him to Deadwood
Burns refused to come, and made so strong
a fight that it requirea tour men to put
him on the cars. Burns was chained to a
seat after being placed on the cars and
reached Deadwood safely, but on the way
up made several ineffectual efforts to es
cape. He had a hearing before T'nlted
States Commissioner Nelson Thursday
afternoon and .was held to the United
States grand Jury.
