LINCOLN, June 29. (Special.) A lively

tviion the unfilled contracts relating to the
Kearney Normal school will be under con-
slderatlon. The lively time is prjmlsed
when nn effort will be mado to do away
with the time-honored custom of referring
matters to tno "e.xrt.itlv committee with
power to act." Tlio executive committee
appointed by Chairman Ludden Is com
pod or J4.iJors, C-gg anu Ludden. It
lias always been the custom of Ludden to
move to refer matters o the executive
committee anJ give the cflmmlttee power to

tlon of Mortensen, who holds that this vlr
tual'y gives to t'ree members of the board
tho power delogsted to the board. This he
holds Is contrary to tha statutes and he
holds, further, that the board has no right
to allow the executive committee, to act,
no-, having the power to delegate au

HAIL DOES MUCH -DAMAGE TO CROP
Storm Severe la a Narrow Strip Near
Kiftfr. ,
EXETER, Neb., June 19. (Special.)
After very peculiar weather conditions all
day Wednesduy, a very heavy electric,
wind, rain and hailstorm struck this vicin
ity about 9:30 last night. The rain was al
most equal to a cloudburst. There was lots
of hall, but the territory damaged Is for
tunately small, the track extending south
west to Burress, about eight miles, the
damage to crops Increasing gradually
toward the latter place and estimated at
from one-tenth at this end to three-fourths
of a loss of the Wheat crop at the Burress
end, but the strip is very narrow. The del
uge of rain Is going to put back the wheat
harvest several days. Many farmers ex
pected to begin cutting Friday. The crop
Is a fine one thts year, regardless of the
fly scare last fall and early this spring.
During the storm last night T. J. May
nard's house was struck by lightning. None
of the family was Injured, however, and
the damage was slight, the chimney being
knocked to pieces and the stovepipe thrown
down.
LEIGH, Neb.. June . -(Special.) A

Prevlooa Onea,
WAHOO, Neb., June 9 (Special . Tele
gram.) The taking of depositions In the
case of the Worrall Grain Company against
the Omaha Elevator Company was con
cluded this afternoon, twenty-one witnesses
having been examined, the testimony mak
lng 235 pages In typewriting. Subpoenas
were Issued for a number who had Just
left home when the officer serving the sub
poenas arrived and their whereabouts Is
still a mystery.
Trenmore Cone was the first witness
called. He Identified certain records and
papers and Was asked some further ques
tions In cross-examination, but nothing of
special Importance was elicited.
Joseph Tomes of Yutan, who worked for
the Omaha Elevator company at that point,
testified that he was buyer for the ele
vator at that place, that he maintained
card prices received from Omaha, did not
ride the country for grain and did not
know anything about what any other grain
buyer was doing.
Otto Ostenbergor, living in ahoo, was
In the grain business twenty-six or twenty-
seven years, was a member of the Ne
braska Grain Dealers' association until ho
sold out and quit about a year ago. lie
attended the meeting of the Grain Dealers'
association at Wahoo February 15, 1901,
put up a forfeit of $100 to maintain prices.
Tot to store grain and not to pay the raise
In price; thought other towns had the
tame arrangements. After this agreement
prices were maintained in Wahoo until
witness went out of business and for some
time after while he was working for his
successors, Ewart, Wilkinson & Co. Could
not tell when he got back his $100, but got
It from Mr. Bewsher, secretary of the Ne
braska Grain Dealers' association. Other
dealers also put up a forfeit. Members of
the association were not to ship to coin
mission houses or commission men that
made bids to track buyers or scoop shovel
men; did not think that members of the
association bid to track buyers If they
knew it. The reason they did not make
bids was to protect the regular elevator
men. Ho also received bulletins from the
association, concerning the Irregular grain
dealers, the purport of which was to keep
members of the association posted on dif
ferent things.
Hamilton Wti Good.
The first witness this afternoon was J. B.
Mather, representing J. H. Hamilton, at
Colon. He got price cards, which he lived
up to, did not ride the country, once in a
while solicited from a friend, did not raise
bids, when his bids were raised notified his
employer in other words, was good.
W. T. Craven, representing the Nebraska
Elevator company at Valparaiso, stated
that slips were made out of nil grain bought
for some time, but that practice was dis
continued. Didn't know whether there, was
a division of grain or not. Gets price cards.
There Is no competition at his station and
has not been for four years except three or
four times for a short time.
Charles Murfln works for the Duff Grain
company at Ithaca, received the cards
containing prices, but does not always live
up to them. Sometimes his competitor over
bids and he does the same In retaliation.
Gets his cards and prices fforri! allsback
Bros.
A. F. Hawkins, who works for Railsback
Bros., testified about the same as the rest.
J. H. Hoetorf is operating an elevator at
Malmo; gets card prices, but does not live
up to them; has had a great deal of trouble
with his competitors; has made numerous
agreements with his competitors, the last
one In December. He violated the agree
ments himself, because he believed there
was a higher authority In Nebraska than
his competitors In the grain business to set
the price, and he paid very little attention
to It.
REVOLUTIONISM N THE SAND HILLS
Conarreeeman Kinkald fees a New Era
for Country.
NORFOLK, Neb., June 29. (Special.)
"Brpme grass Is going to revolutionize the
sandy country of western Nebraska, and
will make It a 100 per oent better oountry,"
said Congressman Moses P. Kinkald of the
big Sixth district, author of the section
homestead law, and who has Just been
out over the territory to Investigate the
progress. of the grasses which the gov
ernment has planted In the northern part
of the cattle raising section of the state
as an experiment.
"Grass will make a new country of west
ern Nebraska. A grass that mats the
sand together and at the same time grows
high enough for hay, will make It a dif
ferent territory. Brome grass is doing this.
Alfalfa Is growing well, too, but It Is not
the success In the sand that the brome
grass Is. We are preaching to the con
stituents that grass Is vital because all
flesh, after all, is grass.
With grass, the section homesteads
which have Just recently been taken, will
make wonderful ranches. And the gov
ernment has now solved the problem."

Do not undervalue the
services of a skilful phy

medicine cannot take the
place of the family doctor.
Therefore we say: Con
sult your physician freely
about your case and ask
him what he thinks about
your taking Ayers Cherry
Pectoral for your cough.
If he says take it, then take
it. If he says do not take
it, then follow his advice.
