fFrom a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN. Dec. 23. (Rpeclal.) Many ru
mor are In the air regarding propnuea
chanfrea In the manairement of the 8tate
university. One report la to the effect that
It Is being seriously considered offering the
position of financial chancellor to C. 8.
Allen, at this time a member of the Board
of Regents. This was generally talked
about before the selection of Prof. Avery
to be acting chancellor. It Is one of the
stories afloat now that shortly after the
first of the year Mr. Avery wM be chosen
permanent chancellor and that Mr. Allen
rill be Invited to be the financial chan
cellor and have supreme authority over the
finances of the Institution.
The university now spends more than
$1,000,000 every blennlum and the regents
have come to the conclusion that a change
from the way of the old management is
necessary to get the best results. The se
lection of a financial chancellor who will
have no other work to do has appealed to
the board, so It Is likely there Is more to
the rumor than mere talk.
Mr. Allen Is a lawyer with a good prac
tice, so It would requlse a good sised sal
ry probably to get him to take the place,
but It Is reported that he would not be
adverse to receiving a proposition.
After the Kids.
Mayor Brown Is out In a statement that
the curfew law must be enforced. Too many
small boys and girls are roaming the
streets at night to suit his honor and they
must be kept at home or their names will
be reported to the juvenile court officers.
Parents of these children are also subject
to prosecution.

Hlatorr of Bolt.
The state's ouster suit against the Stand
ard, Republic and Waters-Pierce companies
was Instituted almost four years ago. The
evidence was taken In St. Loula and In
New York, i where R R. Rogers, principal
was compelled t,o., testify before a special
commissioner. '
At the same time Rockefeller was com
pelled to remain In New Jersey to avoid
Madley's subpoena service, it being Had
tey's wish to place the aged, oil king on the
witness stand.
The evidence has been before the state
supremo court for a year. Owing to Its
' commanding Importance It was considered
by the entire court. All, seven judges con
curred In the opinion, which was written
by Judge Woodson. . .
That the decision as to the Waters
Plerce company represents a comprorrjjie is
shown by separate concurring opinions filed
by Judges Umm and Graves.
Judge Lanyn holds that the Waters-Pleroar'TOmpany-
gnouiinrie- ftna 11,000,000
Instead of tD0.000. Judge Graves' opinion Is
that the Waters-Pierce company should
not W deprived, of Its eorporate franchise.
He takes ' this ground to protect the
minority stockholders. .
BAN ON HEADACHE POWDERS
(Continued from First Page.)
' Junkln Is one of the members who believes
the board .should sell the land.
"The price of school lands has been low
In some Instances," he said, "to Induce peo-
nmonctsononoaoaoaoi
u ttv ' w v rr h
pie to lease the land and cultivate It. It
Is my belief, however, that It would be
better now to sell all of the school lands
and Invest the proceeds. A person who has
school land under lease p not as particu
lar with the land as he would be If he
owned It. In the latter case he would
rotate his crops and take care that he did
not wear out his farm. Under a lease there
is not so much at stake and tlie lessee Is In
cases liable to wear out his land In an
effort to make all he can out of the propo
sition without having an eye to the fu
ture."
Woman to Be Lobbyist.
Miss Hardwlck, a nurse employed at the
Orthapedlc hospital. Is the first person to
register her name as a lobylst. Miss Hard-
wick Is anxious to have a law enacted cre
ating a board to examine nurses and grant
them certificates to practice their profes
sion.
Miss Hardwlck was at the state house
today with a copy of her bill which she
desires Introduced and was Informed, that
If she assisted In the passage of the meas
ure she would have to register her name
with the secretary of state as a lobbyess.
I am willing to register," she said, "if
that Is the law. I am Interested In this
bill and believe Nebraska ' should have
such a board. Many other states have such
boards and May have proven beneficial to
the state and to the profession.
"The law would not prohibit people from
acting as nurses, but until the nurse had
taken an examination and secured a license
to practice she could not hold herself out
as a professional nurse."
Miss Hardwlck said when the legislature
began she would come to the atate house
and register, as she was sufficiently in
terested In the measure to work for Its
passage.
Emery Not Appointed Yet.
E. B. Cowles, land commissioner-elect,
has removed to Lincoln and will c f upy
the residence, 1335 K street. To a i.iend
Mr. Cowles said he had ont appointed
George Emery of Beatrice aa his deputy
and he was at a loss to know how the
report got started.

It may be a surprise to our readers to
learn that a severe cold can in many in
stances be completely broken up in on or
two days' time. To do this, however, prompt
action is necessary. The first symptoms of
a cold are a dry, loud cough, a profuse wat
ery discharge from the nose, and a thin
whits coating on the tongue. When Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is taken in double
doses every hour after the first appearance
of these symptoms, it will counteract the
effect of the cold and restore the system to a
were healthy condition within ono or two days'
"Fra- time, in almost every case, and when the
cold is not completely cured in this time, its
severity will be greatly lessened and a com
plete cure insured in a very short time. When
no action toward curing the cold is taken,
the dry, luud couh is followed by a profuse
watery expectoration, and that by difficulty
in breathing, a peculiar tightness of the
chest and a light expectoration of very
tough and tenacious mucus. Few persons
pay any attention to a cold until in this con
dition that is, until the cold has become
settled in ths system. The first action should
be to relieve the lungs. This is best accom
plished by ths free nae of Chamberlain's
Couth Remedy. This remedy liquefies the
lough mucus and causes its sx pulsion from
ths air cells of ths lungs, produces a free
expectoration, and opens the secretions. A
coaaplete curs soon follows. Ia some cases,
however, several days are required, but the
experience of thousands of persons in tha
use of this remedy has been that it will euro
a severe cold ia less time than aay other
treatment, and that it leaves ths tysum la a
natural and healthy condition. This remedy
also prevents a cold from resulting in pneu
auonia. fries 2 cents, large sixa 60 cents.
