LINCOLN. Jan. IX (Special.) While hie
raptor talked nwwt nothlnna over tha tele
phone to hi. oest girl Richard Patterson of
Omaha, for two days a handcuffed prisoner
In a farm house four miles from Havelock,
took advantage of the abstraction of the
former, , slipped the bracelets from hla
wrists,' slipped down a lightning- rod to the
round, stole the farmer's horse and made
war for liberty. Patterson Is a freshman
In the University or Nebraska and he had
' been kidnapped by the Sophomores to prs
vent hla attendance at k freshman dance
to he given this evening; and at which he
la to be tha head man of honor.
The famrer saw Patterson climbing onto
the horse and as quickly as possible he
addled' "Otd Blue Points" and started in
pursuit. 1 Patterson, however, la somewhat
ef a horseman himself and was soon lost
to sight m the darkness, and an hour later
rode Into Lincoln on the appropriated ant
mat to' the glad surprise of his freshmen
friends. , '
In tha meantime well that farmer re
turned after hla fruitless chase and took
' hla spit Out on Patterson's captor. The
captor, was held responsible for the loss of
the hortjp, and It was only after promising
and allowing .that he could make good on
the promise that tbe horse would be re
turned. Intact that Mr.- Farmer let Mr.
Captor come to Lincoln to tell his humil
iating -experience , to . his brother sopho
mores. As soon as he truck town Pat
terson 'went Into hiding and all avenues to
his whereabouts are shut off.
Visitors ml Board Shorn of Power.
By "unanimous vote ' this morning the
..State Board of Public Lands and Buildings
adopted rules for tbe conduct of the Home
for the Friendless which will take from the
visiting or advisory board every particle
of its power and leave the management of
the home In the hands of the superintend
tU. Mrs. Johnson.. This action on the part
of the board came about over the frequent
eruptions caused by a disagreement of su
perlntendents and members of visiting;
boards -over the conduct of state Institu
tlons. .This same board put the finish to
the visiting boajiMo the Old Soldiers' home
for the same reason, making such a re com
mendatlon to the legislature which resulted
In the law creating that board being- re
pealed. ;"
The board also, allowed the contractors
rectln the hospital and new barn a
GrarM, Island I7.62J.60 on his contract.
laaarlB- state Balldlna-s.
By. voting to Insure .the outbuildings at
the Hastings asylum the State Board of
lublic .ands and Buildings this morning
wont back to the old 6rder of things which
were In vogue years and years ago. Since
the Hastings fire a year ago, in which sev
eral hundred dollars damage was done to
n outbuilding, the board has had under
ronalderatlon the advisability of Insuring
these buildings, but nothing was done until
today. These outbuildings will be Insured
for flS.COO at a premium, of about 4 per cent,
No contract haa yet been entered Into, but
the board haa about decided who will write
the policy.
The aboard has not even considered In
urlng the main building, but It Is likely
that all thethttbiinairigVof all tbe Institu
tlons will be-treated like tbe Hastings
buildings. -The practice of insuring- state
buildings was discontinued years ago as
ft was. thought he state could better afford
V to carry Its own risks. Some weeks ago
1 the proposition 'was voted on by the board
: and was lost. '

State Superintendent McBrien has issued
f Jifs official ruling In the matter, and C. 8.
Coney will be recognized by the state de-
; partment as the county superintendent of
I Stanton county, notwithstanding that W. H.
y Hyland. until January 1, superintendent
and at tha recent election a defeated can
i' didate for re-election, refuses to turn over
t the office and recognise his successor. The
.'" objection of Hyland to recognizing Coney
as the superintendent is based on the date
': of the certificate issued to the latter after
the examination under the new law Just
; prior to the late election. The certificate
a dated on the day the examinations began,
IV' November i, though It was several days
'. later when the auperlntendent had com
plated his task. Coney Is a republican, but
as evidence that the atate department has
been without political bias In the matter of
recognizing holders ef certificates secured
at special examinations. It Is recalled that
Miss Lackaye, the fusion candidate In
Bcotts Bluff county, was recognised, though
ber certificate was dated the same day as
that of Coney. The opinion handed down
today by Superintendent McBrien In the
Coney-Hyland case will hold good until re
Versed by the courts.
' Statistics Law la Lame.
"Either abolish the office or enact laws
, by which It will be able to perform the du
( tlea which it Is supposed to perform and
for which it was created."
i The above is the substance of a recom-
mends Hon which will be made to the next
( legislature by the head of the department
of Industrial atattstics, commonly known
' as the deputy labor commissioner. After
throe years' efforts to get Information of
Interest and value to tbe people regarding
Nebraska the department has come to the
- conclusion that the laws are not adequate
(and ' therefore should be amended and
' broadened or - tho department abolished
!s A DIFFERENCE
IN LUNGS,
v In. the Edinburgh Uni-
versity three human lungs He
side by side. One is of an
Eskimo and ia snow white.
In life this would be ru Jy
with rich blood. Another is
that of a coal-miner and is
. black. The other is of a town
dweller and is a dirty slate
. gray, as are the lungs of most
) city residents. That's why
' consumption thrives in cities.
. One reason why Scott's
Emulsion does so much to
keep down consumption is
because it helps to keep the.
lungs dean and supplies
them with rich, red blood. It
makes the lungs germ-resisting.
If the body is run
ilovh and health is at a low
Scott's Emulsion will
bund it up quickly and pt r
manently.
SCOTT ft HfM MPeri trtt MevVeca.
This recommendation came about over the
failure of the department to secure proper
answers to Questions submitted to the large
packers and corporations doing business In
the state and thus making It impossible
to gather reliable Information regarding the
number of men employed In these places
and the amount of money Invested and the
amount of money paid out. The depart
ment believes that this Information Is of
vital importance to the people not only of
Nebraska but all over the country, and
the laws should be so stringent covering
these points that the department could
force answers to questions. There Is now
a penalty for refusing to give Information
to the department, but It Is stated by the
statistician that the law Is little short of a
farce. '
Taking? ltaos from Fire.
Mayor Brown. Inspired by the recent
hotel Are In Minneapolis, has sent a com
munication to the city council to see that
the proper investigation la made Into the
aafety of the hotels and other buildings
which require by ordinance a fire escape.
A year ago an Investigation was made of
downtown buildings and this year the
mayor desires that nothing be left undone
to Insure the safety of tne public from
fires.'

HASTINGS PLANS DISTRICT FAIR
Money Being; Raised for Purchase of
Groands.
HASTINGS, Neb., Jan. It (Special.) The
preliminary steps, have been taken In the
organization of the Central Nebraska Dis
trict Fair association, whose purpose will
be the holding of an annual fair and race
meet for the central and western sections
of the state. A corporation will be formed,
with an authorized capital stock of $20,000,
of which one-half will be fully paid In.
The work of organization began at a
meeting of Interested citizens Wednesday
night, when a fund of $1,200 was raised by
voluntary subscription. A committee con
sisting of Mayor C. J. Miles, A. H.- Farrens
and J. D. Mines was appointed to go to
Lincoln for the purpose of securing an
assignment in the circuit of the Nebraska
Speed association. Another committee waa
appointed with authority to arrange for
the purchase of suitable grounds and still
another to solicit subscriptions for stock
In the company.
Besides the racing, the principal features
will be the sale and exhibition of live
stock. On account of the distance between
western points and Lincoln, It Is believed
that a district fair here would attract many
exhibits which would otherwise go to the
state fair.
A general mass meeting of citizens will
be held on January 24, at which time further
action will be taken.
