much aa the expense of government goes
on month after month, no matter what the
Income of the state Is, this fund Is low,
as the Income from now until some tune
In January amounts to very little. Should

Interest saved to the state.
In the temporary achool fund for dis

tricts of the state there Is now $246,379.
This Is a decrease from the amount appor
tioned last year of about $20,000 for the
December apportionment. This apportion

DspU'stios In Reports.
It la not Improbable the legislature will
be called upon to take some action regard
ing the matter which goes into the pub
lications of the various (tats departments.
Just at this time considerable matter is
being duplicated and it Is costing the statt
considerable money. The bent seems to
run to agriculture. The state labor bureau
publishes bulletins and reports containing
statistics on agriculture and hints to farm
ers; the State Board of Agriculture does the
same thing, and so does the State Board
of Horticulture and the State farm, and
now the office of the atate superintendent
haa come Into the game with a vengeance.
Deputy Superintendent Bishop, who has
spent most of his time while In office in
organising agricultural societies for boys
and girls, has put out a corn book. This
publication contains some original matter,
some matter secured from the other de
partments and collected by them, and all
of It he has copyrighted under his own
name. The question will be raised at tho
next legislature whether it is a paying
business to Issue practically the same mat
ter ln several different pamphlets and under
different titles.

of directors of the Mutual Life and the

has not taken a position for or against

Isprtne Co art Reports.
Frank IV. Coleman, bailiff to the supreme
court, has completed the statistical part of
the biennial report of this department to
be made to the governor within the next
few days. Mr. Coleman has inaugurated
a new system of keeping the records of
the Nebraska reports handled by the de
partment, and his report shows In detail
the number of books of each volume on
hand, sold, damaged, given away and the
price received for them. On this date two
years ago the clerk had on hand 17,582 vol
umes. During the two years he has re
ceived 7,600 reports, distributed free to
other states and libraries 1,239 volumes and
sold 4.435 vol j mas. He has on hand dam
aged by water leaking through the roof,
364 volumes and 19.044 volumes In good con
dition. This department has on hand out
of Its maintenance appropriation of $3,5c0
a balance of $944.84. The state library spent
ior new dooks during the two
$8,202.63 and. has on hand $809.68.
years
H. C. Lindsay, librarian and clerk of
the supreme court, will formulate his
recommendations to the governor within
a few days. He will call especial atten
tion to the crowded condition of the II-
orary ana the danger which threatens It
at all times. This valuable collection of
books is unprotected from fire. It is -so
crowded hundreds of books are stacked
away on the floor and railings, there being
no more room on the shelves and there is
no more room for shelves. Mr. Lindsay
estimated off-hand, that at least 4.500 books
would be added to the library during tha
next year. Each book occupies about two
and one-half Inches, making a total space
of 937 feet, which Is absolutely necessary
to house the books. There Is not a foot
of space. Mr. Lindsay thinks It will re
quire at lrast a quarter of a mile of shelv
ing to hold the books which will be added
to the library during the next two years.
Poor Coal at Gas Works.
Owing to the quality of coal used by the
gas company, the people of Lincoln are
breathing aulphur, and considerable un
easiness is felt all over town. Where gas
is used to any extent the sulphur Is so
prominent that it Is almost Impossible to
breaths ln the house. People are living
with their windows open.
Fooeral of John J. Trorapea.
The funeral of John J. Trompen, who

desire to attend the funeral, and will re
