"And Afterwarda Comes the Heating Up When the chicken season opens the lovers of the dog and gun will have tho rarest sport that any man ever enjoyed. To expectantly trail a covey of fine birds, with every nerve and muscle at attention, and to finally flush them and bring thorn down when they flutter up Into the air gives a thrill that acts like wine on the blood. And the long tramp across the prairie carrying the gun and watching the dog whets the appetite till the trophies of tho hunt become such toothful viands as no king every enjoyed at his royal feast. The fellows who de liberately and by force break away from their business a little while every au tumn to seek this sport In the fastness la of the prairies and are to be com mended for their good sense In not pass ing up one of the things that makes life worth the living. Fremont Tribune. Don't Cusa Don't cuss the Exeter hotels because they haven't room and food for everybody. The town Is booming and short two restaurants from a year ago. Don't cuss the lot owners In tho burned district far not building sooner. Try to buy a few brjck for quick delivery . and see how It goes. Don't cusa the republican party for nominating Hod Porter: you might be a republican party yourself some day. Don't cuss the railroads for hauling a 200-pound j hog to Lincoln for 20 cents and charging you 90 cents for similar accommodations; hog needs a little comfort, anyway, and you dodge the packing houae. Don't cuss the school teachers for not making a statesman out of a 'fool; consider the question . of pedigree. Don't cuss yourself for getting In the state fair Jam; think how many other, idiots there were.

E0SE AND PEBKDIS TO QUIT Neither Has Time from Official Dalles to Accept Places Respectively af Chalrmaa and Secretary of State Committee. LINCOLN. Sept. 20.-Speclsl.)-The no ticeable absence of Governor Sheldon from the meeting held at the Llndrll hotel Wed nesday night, at which plana were discussed f ir the capture of the chairmanship and secretaryship of the republican atate com mittee, has created considerable Comment) The governor. It Is known, was Invited to the meeting but did nit attend. The meet ing was called by Frank Harrison. After those invited had conferred for a while, a runner was sent out to get Judge Reese to attend. The Judge, however, was out of the city, so not a single candidate was present at the session, though all the -candidates are vitally Interested In the organiza tion of the committee. The law provides that the state committee shall elect Its own chairman and secretary. This com mittee will be selected at the state con vention, to be held next Tuesday. Governor Sheldon does not believe any one person or set of persons not authorized by law should select the chairman. Some of the state officers are considerably stirred up over the action of the volunteers In as suming to do the work of the state com mittee. Some of these officers will be candidates for re-election' next year, and the chairman and secretary selected Thu day will map out the campaign for the coming year, and consequently It Is of the greatest Importance to these candidates, as well as to the party, that men be selected who can harmonize all factions, and who are big enough to work for the success of the entire'tlcket rather than of one particu lar candidate. At this time both W. B. Rose, present chairman, and Clark Ferklns, present sec retary, are self-eliminated from the con test, as both are too busy with their state work to permit of them serving. Ross Ham mond would suit Senator Burkett for chair wan, and alao Judge Frost, neither of whom have any special Interest at stake at this time, but Mr. Hammond Is not sure that he wants the Job or could afford to take It. It Is likely the candidates will meet Monday and If they do they may make a recommendation to the state com mittee. Judge Reese said today he would meet with the candidates, but until he did he had nothing to say anout a chairman. The state committee has the final say and It may or may not accept the nominee of the candidates. accessor to Ilamlcelottl Discussed. The Veterinary board will meet shortly and select a successor to Dr. Ramlcclottl, deceased, member of the toard of secre taries. Governor Sheldon received a report at Omaha last night that Ohe of the bank ers became sick at the stomach after rid ing the "green horse" at the den, and he Intends to vote for a man qualified to doctor up said horse so he will not have the same effect on others. School District Saved Cash. Ed Lawrence, bond clerk in the office of the auditor, has saved school district No. , Thurston county.

Is under obligations to the State Railway commission for saving her: 14.66 which she said had been charged her by the Union Pacific for storage on her baggage. Mrs. Draper took the advice of the commission when returning home from Freeley, Colo., and bought her ticket to the first station In Nebraska, Barton. This was to get the benefit of the 2-cent faro law. When the train reached Barton, It did not stop and her baggage was ta'n to Big Springs. When she finally got track of it, there was charged against it the $4.65. Mrs. Draper took the matter up with the com mission, which wrote to the general bag gage manager of the Union Pacific.
