(Special.)-Thls after noon Freight Agent McQInnls ot the Northwestern- appeared before the stale board to x plain how the earnings of the Nebraska fritleage were allotted, and Incidentally to tell the board that the road Is In hard Enea because Its traffic Is almost entirely ical. The main specification In the query llrected at him was the charge of Treas urer Mortensen that, while the Nebraska rates are much higher than those east of Uie river, the net earnings of $1,400 a mile reported to the board are determined by ro rating the receipts on the through (uslness according to the mileage without (taking such allowance. Mr. Mortensen cited, as an Instance, the fact that the rate from Norfolk to Omaha Is as great as the charge from the river to Chicago, and yet, he estimated, the allowance of the earnings to the Nebraska mileage would be only one-sixth of the total. McGtnnls said that while that may be the truth, the through business Is only about 11 per cent of the total. He said that nearly all the business was done with Missouri river points, so that the question ' is to the distribution of net earnings did ' not enter. He cited one Instance of coal ihtpments from Iowa where the rate from Dmaha to York was $1.20, as compared with 1.06 for the haul from the mine to Omaha, twice the distance covered In the Nebraska haul. He explained the absence of Inter nal business over the lines as due to Ihe fact that ' the, Nebraska mileage, the Fremont ft Elkhora Valley was originally practically an Independent Nebraska line, which led merchants and dealers to form ;nnnertlons with Lincoln, Omaha and ioya,v ' Illinois Central Appears. Tax Commissioner W. L. Tarbet of the Illinois Central appeared before the board with reference to- the assessment of the terminals of that line. He said that the anglble property might be assessed, but uestloned the right of the board to place Iny valuation on the Intangible property, lecause the lines of another corporation ire used. He also raised the point that the use of the terminals into Omaha had resulted In a net loss. The board will meet again Wednesday nt t o'clock to listen to representatives of the Great Western with reference to l he value of the terminals, elevators and other property of that line at Omaha. Not Much of an Increase. The board likely will not make any con ' clderable Increase in the total assessment , of the railways, notwithstanding the story that ft would be raised from $46,000,000 to $60,000,000.. The sentiment among the mem bers' ot the majority favors an increase In the Union Pacific to correspond to the Improved value, but there Is a stumb ling block in the way of such action in Ihe demand of Land Commissioner Eaton that the Burlington be given similar treat ment, and the majority believes that the iter line was assessed at about the right Vure last year. Treasurer Mortensen, ho would be the leading spirit In any lovement for such a large Increase, con ends that .the assessment made last year meets me jiudiiq aemnnu. Within a week or ten days the board Is expected to reach a final decision. Sev eral tentative estimates have been framed by various members, both on the basis tf tha stock and bonds, and net earnings, BOOTLEGGERS KEEP BUSY Two lien Under Arreit for Introducing Liquor Upon Indian BeMrration. LOGAN LAMBERT IS IN MORE TROUBLE "Feather Tecs" Will Probably Malt Himself Scare, a He Bilked. Thirsty "Redskin' Ont of Money. a - -v. HOMER, Neb., May 29. -(Special.) The ever present bootlegger, not to be outwit ted by the closing of th saloons In this nlace to the detriment of his business. Is now resorting to other methods to supply Indians with whisky against the laws of the stat of Nebraska, which provide that It Is a misdemeanor to sell liquors to In dians, and th United States law, which provides a penalty for taking Intoxicating liquors upon an Indian reservation. So bold have some of th bootlegger be com in taking liquors upon the reservation to sell to Indians that It has resulted in the In dictment by the United States federal grand Jury now In session at Omaha of John Lulkhart and Logan Lambert on the se rious charge of Introducing liquors on an Indian reservation. They were placed under arrest at their homes on the Winnebago reservation yesterday afternoon by Deputy United States Marshal John F. Sides of Dakota City and taken to that place by the marshal to be taken to Omaha to answer to the charges against them before the court now In session. Lulkhart Is cousin of Ed Lulkhart, a former partner of Sherman Etinls, ex-saloon keeper of this nlace. who is now under indictment of selling liquor to Indiana Lambert, the other prisoner, is the thug of this place who assaulted Rev. Father Schell at Dakota City about twa months ago, breaking his Jaw in two place and who Is now at liberty on $1,000 bonds to answer at the coming session of the Da kola county district court to the charge of assault with Intent to commit groat bodily Injury.

No attempt ha yet been made to reach an agree ment, although It Is generally understood that as regards the general total the members are pretty much of the same opin ion. As Indicated several days ago, there is a sentiment favoring a decrease In the minor branches of the Purllngton, and In crease In the Great Northern and the Union Pacific. Mat Buy and Sells I.and. During the past few days the state has purchased twenty acres of land south of the penitentiary at $100 an acre, and will, probably, within a few days take 200 acres mora at the same price. To secure the funds, penitentiary lands In Seward and Lancaster counties are being sold under the authority of an act passed by the recent legislature. Ijast week In Seward county two tracts totaling 320 acres were sold for $8,900. One quarter section brought $31 and another Is very rough, the leavings of the large area set aside for th construction of the In the courts, that they would soon com mence to realize that their business was But such does ..... ..,1 Tim .... ir,.u losing one In every way ' ' ! . . .. ...

J are looking for some untried methods to supply booze to the Indians, of which the following are a few, The bootlegger will have a five or ten gallon keg of the poorest known whisky shipped here to him or will purchase the same at Sioux City at a cost not to exceed $1 a gallon. After receiving It Mr. Boot legger both adulterates it and doubles it to twice its original quantity, and then hav Ing previously provided himself with number of "Old Crow," "Belle of Ken tucky," "Ouggenhelmer," and other well known brands of whisky blown In the bottle, fills them up with his diluted fire water and sells them out to the poor red skin at from 13 to S a bottle, the Indian believing that he has washed out his throat with the same quality of boose that his white-faced brethren use. To make their liquors In the bottle to more resemble the original packages Mr. Bootlegger takes the tinfoil off of tobacco and neatly placing It over the cork ties It there with a colored string and there you have it any old brand you want out of a barrel at $S per quart. W'lnnebagoe Are Danclnsr. For the last three weeks the Winnebago Indian have been indulging in a' 'Scalp dance," which' takes place every night of the week on the reservation. Bootleggers have been taking advantage of this gather ing of the Indians and It Is reported that as high as $100 has been taken In on one Krause and W. H. Whltneck. Still an other lot of 860 acres at Sprague In Lan caster county will be sold In a few days. b'lt it Is better land, and Land Commls sloner Eaton said that a better price would be received. He estimates that the 680 acres will bring $23,000 Into the hands of the state board, to be used In the pur chase of land near the penitentiary, which can be farmed .with the aid of convict labor. The small area capable of this use at the penitentiary has made It necessary for the state board to rent about 200 acres, for which $5 an acre has been paid. The state land sold has been bringing only $680 a year. The sales are made at advertised publlo bidding, but the purchases are made at private sale, the board having an option on a tract adjoining the prison. The deal was made through M. W. Fol- som, a Lincoln real estate agent.

Rain Did Heavy Damage, An extraordinary fall of rain last night ravine and the word goes forth that fire water can be had. The bootlegger goes to the wagon and there fills up his bottles from a cask or keg, and Poor Ix is ready to give up his money ranging in price from $3 to $5 per quart for stuff that costs less than $1 a gallon. Alonzo Shaw, alias "Feather Legs." who caused a flood In Antelope valley, running W" but "gently released from the Douglas through the eastern part of the city, result ing In several thousand dollars damage in washed out bridges and rubied barn and outbuildings.

No need to get mad now, tear up the paper, or shout "nonsense, good coffee never hurt anyone.' You know better than that for you can point out all around you folks who are the worse for coffee's slugging. Think over a few coffee-drinking, friends and casually enquire if they are entirely and perfectly well and just how coffee treats them. If it hurts others isn't it just possibb? Catch the drift, don't you? In fact after you have studied the matter a bit it will come plain that if you are a coffee drinker the chances are you already have some form of incipient or perhaps fixed organic disease due entirely to the coffee constipation, rheumatism, eye trouble, nervous headaches, nervous prostration or others of the well proven coffee ails. You can decline to look the thing squarely in the face and peg along with the coffee. Some day Nature will haul you up SHORT1 IT'S A POOR BARGAIN to swap health and a clear, business-like head, for a few cups of coffee each day. Every coffee toper tries to wiggle around and charge his aches and ails to weather, overwork, too much or too little food, this, that or the other thing, so it isn't his Master, coffee. t A Sure Personal Test will locate the exact cause of your steady destruction of health, if that cause be coffee. It's worth knowing the plain, sober fact before fixed organic, heart or other disease sets in, which perhaps cannot be cured. The test is pleasant, accurate and satisfying. Quit coffee absolutely for 10 days and in its place use Postum. BE SURE the Postum is properly boiled as per directions on pkg. (and that's easy) then you have the famous Food Coffee, with the deep seal brown which turns to rich golden brown when rich cream is added and the flavor is crisp, snappy and soft like the high grades of Old Gov't Java. If in two or three days you begin to sleep soundly at night, digest your food better, stomach and bowels show signs of recovery, or the old feeling of weakness at the heart leaves, or eyes get stronger and, head works clearer, (the ails of coffee drugging are multi tudinous) the facts will be before you and YOU HAVE THE ANSWER, POSTUM COFFEE 10 days.
