I May Drop Oat Tet.
While State Chairman Alien denies that
there Is any effort being made to Induce
the withdrawal from the state ticket of
Dr. Town send of Franklin county for lieu
tenant governor and Alfred Worsley of
O'Neill for lend commissioner, yet It Is
not Improbable that both of these men
may be Induced to emit the ticket The
state organisation has been using its ef
forts to get these gentlemen something
Just as good In the shape of legislative
nomination. Townsend has already been
nominated for the house In his home
county, and WorsleT Is understood to
have the senatorial nomination In his dls
trlct In his grasp. Worsley Is said to be
a good campaigner, but Townsend Is re
garded as rather of a dead weight The
committee will meet here Friday and there
will be something doing. '
An effort Is being made to have the head

closer to the territory over which the big

a police officer, returned home today with

his confession was that of a fakir. The

Is insane le what led to this change of

They figure that the St Louis officers
think It would be useless to tske a craiy

Slate Hease Notes.
Chief Clerk Despaln of the State Labor
bureau Is preparing a pamphlet of Ne
braska statistics for distribution at the
state fair. The officers of the Labor bureau
believe that this plan will prove to be
the most practical method of disseminating
Information concerning the state.
Because of a failure of the railways to
grant further harvest rates the Nebraska
Labor bureau is not supplying harvest
hands for the North Dakota wheat fields,
although It Is claimed thousands of men
are needed. It is believed that the fail
ure to grant rates is due to the fact that
there has been very large traffic to the
land openings at Bonesteel and Devil's
Lake, and the railway managers were
fearful that the. rates would enable land-
seekers to evade the published tariffs.

Workman Near Fremont Foaad with
Ilnllet Thro ok Body.
FREMONT, Neb., Aug. 16. (Special Tele
gramsFrank Knodes was shot In the
back this afternoon by some unidentified
person and Is not expected to recover. He
was working for C. K. Engberg at his truck
farn. Just west of this city, picking sweet
corn. Shortly after I o'clock he was found
by Mr. Engberg lying on his side between
two rows of corn and bleeding profusely.
He was conscious, but able to speak with
difficulty and said to Engberg:
"Bring me some water, I am shot."
Mr. Engberg got him some water and
telephoned for Dr. Davie, who arrived
as soon as possible. He was taken to Eng
berg's house and It was ascertained that
he was shot from the rear, the bullet en
tering Just back of the left armpit and
coming out in 'front Just below the heart,
passing through the body In a nearly
straight line.
in reply to the question who shot him
he said he did not know. He did not see
anybody, but the bullet came from the
west. It was evidently from a gun of
large caliber, probably a 44 rifle. The
field where he was working lies between
the North Bend road and the Northwestern
tracks and the theory of the officers Is
that the shot was fired by someone on the
track and was not fired with the intention
of shooting Rhodes. He has no known
enemy and there Is no reason why any
person should want to kill him. Parties
who live in that vicinity say that they
frequently see persons passing along the
track shooting promiscuously and In their
opinion such a shot was the one which
struck Rhodes.
This evening he was reported as sinking
rapidly and the doctors give little hope of
nis recovery, in is 30 years of age and
lives with his wife and one child at the
corner of M and Jackson streets. For the
last three years he has worked on tho
r.ngnerg truck farm. He Is an honest In
dustrlous man and was well liked by his
employer. , His wife was almost overcome
wnen told of the affair.
Sheriff Bauman and the city officers are
investigating the shooting" and endeavor
ing to locate a party who was known to
be in that vicinity with a 44-callber rifle
this afternoon and an arrest Is likely to
wj maae oerore morning. The railroad
track where the shooting occurred bears
a little west of north and Is so much
higher than the cornfield where Rhodes
was working one could easily see a man
in tne neld If he lqoked that way. All
xwmues couia say about the shooting

Weekly crop bulletin of the Nebraska

the Weather bureau, for the week ending
August IS, 1904:
The past week has been warm with de
ficient rainfall and excemlve sunshine In
nearly all counties. The dally mean tem
perature has averaged less than 1 degree
above the normal, but the last four days
were warm, with maximum temperatures
exceeding 90 degrees and In a few Instances
reaching 100 degrees.
The rainfall was about confined to show
ers on the nights of the 8th and 9th, and
ranged from one-half an Inch to slightly
more than an Inch In eastern counties,
but was very light In central and western
counties.
The past week was very favorable for
securing hay and grain. Haying and
threshing have progressed rapidly in prac
tically all parts of the state. Stacking
and shock threshing are about completed.
Fall plowing' has begun, but In many lo

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Aug. 16. (Spe

ager of the Commercial hotel of that city,
was brought to this city yesterday by the
village marshal, charged with shooting
with Intent to kill, but Dunn has been
turned loose and it Is expected that no
complaint wifl be-filed. From all that can
be learned on both sides It appears that,
grieved at some real or imaginary offense
on the part of the management of the
Wood River telephone central Dunn went
up to its office early Sunday morning and
became Involved In an altercation. When
the manager, I. D. O'Kane, Who sleeps
in the rooms, awoke, it was to find a
rough house. Dunn and the telephone as
sistant were in a mlxup, it being alleged
that Dunn went up to mean out the place.
O'Kane assisted. Dunn was given a forci
ble cue to exit, and at t o'clock hostilities
were renewed on a street corner, at
which time Dunn struck O'Kane. Nothing
more serious occurred at this .time, but In
the evening, while returning from the
depot, where the hotel man had been to
guide the possible stranger to the hotel,
he claims to have been struck and hit
with a brick. He had by this time invested
himself with a gun and began to pull
the trigger. Emll Phelan was standing
near by and a bullet g rased his left arm
and side, making a light flesn wound. It is
believed here that there was more than
the necessary aggressiveness on both sides

The difference between success and

out of every ten cases to lack of
physical manhood. Your growth, your

as a workman in the usual 'uslnes
pursuits of llfo, your popularity with
other human beings, of either sex, is
all shaken and your future career
blighted if your sexual power Is de
pleted. You can't be half a man sexu
ally, and a whole man otherwise. A
chain is no stronger than its weakest
link. Upon possessing the essential
elements of manhood depends chiefly
the happiness of marital life, your
success in the commercial world and
