From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Oct. 13.-Bpeclil -Ex-OoV-err.or
Furnas came In Inst night to at
tend a meeting of the State Fair board,
and expressed himself as . being wc:
pleased with the last Mtate fair: "In my
opinion." he said, "the fair n the beM
that v haw jver held and I am certainly
gratified at the attendance and the re
ceipt. Th state fair now la on a busl
mss basis and will be conducted that
way. I thirk we should abolish the frea
pans Info the grounds and pay for every
thing we get. because thire la no question
that the system of giving free passe to
certain Individuals has ben greatly abused.
We have been gradually cutting tiown the
numW of pneses each year and this yeir
we gave out a less number than hereto
fore. Wa shou'd pay cash for our adver
tising, make regular contrncts and do
everything right on a business 'basK In
years gone by It was right to give passes
' to help advertise the fair and to those
who had done work for It. but we are In
a position now-ito conduct the fair as a
business Just like any other business, and
thnt Is the way It should be conducted."
A question has been raised whether horso
racing has bfen much of a factor In bring
ing the crowds to the fair grounds. Dur
ing the last few years the expenso of the
races has greatly exceeded the receipts
and It may be that the advisability of dis
continuing the races at the""tatr will be
brought to the attention of the board.
Land for Convent.
The Convent of the Holy Child Jesus Is

poor people in Lincoln, but to the fact
that the society was being recognized
more and Is therefore; being used more,
while heretofore appeals have- been made
to Individuals.

ON THE SAFETY OF
OVEREATING
The Rule of Choosing the Lesser of
Two. Evils Applies to the Wajr
Yon Sat.
I want to know how a man la to know
when he has had enough? '
The Pilgrim Fathers, I believe, had a
quaint saying to the effect that you should
always rise from the table feeling as if you
could eat some more.
But the question Is, how much moreT
Just when to stop.
That's the point.
The rule is wrong, because It's no rule
at all. -
It Is Inexact and unscientific.
m' It Is likely to lead to the dangerous habit
of eating too little.
And eating too little or digesting too lit
tle, which amounts to the same thing Is
the causa of nine-tenths of the diseases
from which humanity suffers today.
What Is disease?
It Is simply uneven balance between
waate and repair.
Some organ lacks strength to carry on
the special work for which It was created.
Where shal. it find the strength it lacks?
In drugs?
Ten thousand times NO!
Better die than become a hopeless drug
fiend.
No- in food.
But." you say, "I eat a plenty of good
faod every day!"
' True, dear friend; but you don't digest it.
And food, undigested, la mere poison.
So. to make food do you good you must
take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
The great thing about Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Is that thetr actloo does not depend
upon stimulative druggery.
They cannot create a habit.
They contain no Ingredients to "pick you
up." "tone up your nervous system" or
furnish whip energy by calling out your
vital reserve force.
They create new strength, force and en-'
ergy out of your food.'
If taken starving, they will do you no
' good at all.
So, eat to live, and live to eat, with
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
The curse of our, present civilisation Is
exhaustion.
And exhaustion, whether of brain, nerves,
physical strength or vital force, la caused
by starvation. .
Of two evils. It Is better to overeat (and
prevent indigestion with Stuart's Dyspep
sia 1 flets) than to rise from the table not
having eaten enough to repair the exhaus
tion of your vital forces.
For exhaustion or starvation leads to the
most varied forms of sickness or disease,
brought on by Inability of the weakened
vitality to counteract the disease -poisons
and microbes. -
Whereas the well fed and well nourished
person, without ever feeling the worse for
It. can expose himself to dangers, the mere
thought of which would drive the weak,
starving -lyspeptle Into a panic fit.
Good food, well digested. Is the great se
cret of a healthful existence here on earth.
So. eat heartily, every day. of the beat
food you can get, and regulate the working
of your digestive machinery with Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets.
As a result, you will be astonished to
find bow, much stronger and livelier you
feel, how maoli more and better work you
can do, how much more pleasure you will
get out of life, and how your old enemy,
that chronlo trouble which has fastened
upon your week spot, whatever It Is, will
up and away, and ever after leave you In
peace, health and comfort.
T',re's ure truth than poetry la all this.
Try It oaoa.

Clrenlnr on Hevenne Lair.

committee was in Lincoln this morning at
tending to routine matter connected with
the governor's office and took back to head
quarters with him copy for a circular to be
printed shortly, giving an analysis of the
workings of the revenue law. The circular.
It is understood, is to be printed and cir
culated at once.
I'nlversity Students Coming;.
It was definitely decided this morning
that a big delegation of university stu
dents will go to Omaha Saturday morning
to cheer the Cornhuiikers on In their game
against Crelghton university. Manager
Davis announced that he had made ar
rangements with the Burlington railroad
to haul a crowd of at least 200 In a special
train leaving Lincoln at 9: o'clock and
returning the same night, leaving Omaha
at 10 o'clock. The fare for the round trip
will be $1.10. v
A big mass m'r ."ng was held in the
chapel this morning, at which sufficient
enthusiasm was stirred up to more than
guarantee the necessary number to take
advantage of the reduced rates. . Profs.
Clapp, Fossler and Wolcott addressed the
meeting, and there was a great deal of
spirit shown. It was the intention, as the
speakers seated, to attempt to unify the
college spirit by the demonstration, as it
waa conceded that the 'varsity will hare
rather an easy time against the Omaha
team. It a crowd can be taken to Omaha,
It will be ail easier matter to get the stu
dents to participate In the excursion to
Minnesota, where they will be badly
needed.
Prohibitionist Pulls Out.
T. H. Carson, nominee on the prohibition
ticket for state superintendent, this morn
ing notified the secretary of state of his

GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Oct. 13. (Spe
cial., At th clo of the afternoon session
of the Presbyterian synod of Nebraska
Tuesday afternoon the visiting clergymen
and laymen were entertained at supper
in the basement of the church by the
women of the First Presbyterian' church
of this city.
The evening session Was opened by the
moderator, Rev. Dr. Braden, who delivered
an eloquent and Interesting sermon on
Psalms. 46, x. Upon the close of the ser
mon the solemn service of the Lord s sup
per was administered. Revs. H. C. Swear -Ingen.
D. D., of Lincoln and Rev. Dr.
T. K. Hunter of Dundee Place church,
Omaha, assisting.
The election of moderator and tempo
rary clerks was then taken up and Rev.
George A. Ray, D. D., of St. Paul was
chosen as moderator and Rev. Charles A.
Arnold of Schuyler and Rev. Morris A.
Fllson of Staplehurst as temporary clerks.
The reports of the committee on arrange
ments and of the committee on popular
services were then read and adopted.
Wednesday morning, after the usual de
votional services, the roll was completed
to Include those who had arrived yesterday
morning.
Rev. F. G. Knauer of West Africa, Rev.
Russell of the Presbyterian synod of Mis
souri and Rev. Dr. Fraynor of the Synod of
New York were invited to advisory seats
In the synod. Several new members were
enrolled, one being a former Methodist
clergyman.
The report of the committee on minister
ial relief was read and received. The
report showed the average amount paid to
widows of former clergymen In the synod
to have been $150 per year and the average,
entire, $190 per yea. In connection with
this report Rev. Russell of Missouri made
an address In which he gave some very
Interesting figures In the matter of the
church's care of Its old and foeble pas
tors. In this connection he gave figures
showing that the Presbyterian church In
' 1873 paid Its clergymen an averuge salary
of $977 per annum. In the last twenty
years, however, the figure has come down
to $fi37 per annum. The church as a whole
was not doing Its duty to Its ministers.
The highest amount that could be paid to
the needy In their old age was $300. whers
as, with the financial strength. God-given,
the Presbyterian church should be able V
i give at least $W0 per annum to the aged
1 pastor and his wife. And yet. with this
low salary staring him In the face, many
I a minister had It to hesr from congrega
tions that they would not think of enga-
Iging a man after he had reached the 40th
year of his life. He also showed that the
, financing of the clergy was at fault. The
figures of the New York Life Insurance
company showed that 72 per cent of the
Presbyterian clergy f the country pro
vided for themselves for old age, and
Sfradstreet's statistics show that of all
men. 94 per cent do not. The husbanding
of the small salaries received. It was there
fore to be deduced, made It all the more
