The wearers of the frot ball "It" at
Pellevue have announced Fred Paulsen, an
Omaha man, a their choice for the cap-,
tnincy of the lull team. Pauln Is a six
footer. welKh 17"i pounds, Is remarkably
'iwed.v, and has been a tower of strength
on the Purple and Gold eleven of two sea
m ns. He played left end In lit!, and
failed to return In lfop. This season he re
turned to the Kanie with added wrtRht and
developed an ability to hit tlie line, which
litis placed him well up among the bet
full hacks of the state. Many a time In
his two years of play at Hellevue he has
brought a crowd to Its feot cheering by Ills
wonderfully sure, fierce tackllnir. . His
election assures successful leadership for
Hill, and Is gratifying tr players and sup
porters alike. Kor an underclass man to
occupy this prominent position Is very un
usual, but Paulsen's nerve and ability as a
player, his popularity among the players
and undoubted qualities of leadership have
marked him throughout the season as the
coiiilmr captain.
ProKpects are that he will lead a winning
team. Kx-Captaln Parry. all-Nbraska
guard: Primrose, all-Nebraska end. and
nice, tackle, will graduate In June, and men
will havo to be developed or found for these
throe vacancies. Mastln. end; Rouderson,
tackle; and Fowler and Curtlss, guards;
will be back In the line next year, and with
these veterans as a nucleus, and V. and H.
Jones, Mibstltute line men, who will bid
for positions next season, a heavy, fighting
line is assured. The baokfleld will remain
lnta t, not a backfleld mean leaves school,
and every substitute of this year's team
has announced his intention to be on hand
next reason.

Farmers of Nrbraska. Kansas. Missouri
and Iowa are rejo clnit over the first snow
of the season, which comes at a Hood t nie
and which Is most beneficial to the crops,
especially to the winter wheat. Grain men
say that nothing could be more timely for
winter wheat than the present snow, which
has spread a blanket of about four Inches
over a larRe part ot the corn and wheat
belt. The snow etarted to fall Sunday
morning, and it has snowed continuously
ever since, with Indications of still nioro
snow. The fall was not accompanied by
any wind nor was It of a sleety nature and,
consequently, did not bring any damage to
the bin service corporations with their
wires and tracks.
Fearing that the snow storm may con
tinue all day and trouble then surely would
occur, the street railway company and
telephone and llijht companies are mak n
preparations. It wns reported Monday
morning that trncks and wires were unim
paired and apparently In no danger of
damage through the storm, but that If the
fall continued all day snow banked trucks
and Blippery rails would prove a bother
some condition.
Sweepers and snow plows are being held
In readiness for a qu.ck start In case a
blockade shall take place. It Is gener
ally deolared the snow is too light to causa
any damage to the overhead wires.
Woman Loses Wleh.
The snow also caused one of the young
women appearing at the Gayety this week
to lose a valuable gold watch, which had
been handed down to her as an heirloom
of the family. It was a small Swiss move
ment Engl.sh watch and hud the Initials
A. E. M. As a bevy of the young women
of the Knickerbockers were enroute from
their hotol to the theater they engaged In
a snowballing contest and this is the sport
which cost the young woman her watch.
A liberal reward is offered for its return.
Horses on cabs and transfer and baggage
wagons had a hard time of it Sunday, as
the snow made the pavements exceedingly
slippery. Several large wagons were turned
completely aroun in front of the Hen
shaw, and a florist's horse fell on Kar
nam, between Fifteenth and Sixteenth
streets. Returning un hour later the same
horse fell again In the same place.
Snow Blocks Golfers.
Forty brave golfers who started out to
play their annual Sunday game at the
Field club Sunday morning were forced
to give up when the majority of them had
completed nine of the eighteen holes.
"For about fifty or seventy yards you
can see a ball perfectly well In a snow
storm," declares Harry TownHend, who was
one of the many who lost a ball. "Then
It Just kind of disappears, and Its im
possible to find 1t again."

Nero became emperor when he was only
17 eats old. His early accession to the
throne he owed entirely to his mother
Agrlpplna, who thoughtfully poisoned the
Emperor Claudius when It began to look
as though the old man intended to deter
dying until a later date than Nero had
fixed his heart on. Any Roman emperor
who fancied he was going to dio of old at:e
could have been convicted "f softening of
the brain In any court in Rome. Aftjr sit
ting up several nights thinking hard the
writer has been unable to remember a sin
gle Roman emperor who died of old ans
uncomplicated by toxolonical symptoms.
Agrippina had married Claudius alter cre
ating the proper vacancy by putting pto
maines In his wife's soup, and then In
duced the emperor to adopt Nero. Even
at this early day Nero exhibited many evi
dences that he would make a good Roman
emperor. Besides playing the fiddle lie
combined a taste for Greek art and mur
der that held forth grt-at promise of fu
ture usefulness to the Btate. Agrippina's I
training had not been In vain, as Nero I
showed by attempting to drown the old
lady as soon aa he found himself on the
throne. Although he failed In his first at-1
tempt, the earnest preparations he had
made Indicated that the failure was not
the fault of carelessness, lie was deeply
mortified at the slip, however, and for
several days couldn't look his mother In
the face, conscious that tie deserved re
proach for his clumsiness alter all her
patient lessons. Many and many a night
had the noble widow tat up with her
fatherless boy-at her knee, teaching him
ids murder primer, and now at the very
first attempt to carry out her precepts lie
had made a coarse bungle of It. But did
Nero give up, discouraged, as many a man
would have done under the circumstances?
No! With noble perseverance and pa
tient, unwearied endeavor he followed
his mother to her villa whence she had
fled, surrounded the place with soldiers
and had her successfully strangled In the
night. It may not have been as artistic
as his first plan, but, as Nero well re
marked to Seneca the next morning, life
Is short and art Is long.
Flushed with this success Nero cast about
to see whom he could practice on next and
happened to think of his wife Octavla. Ho
didn't have anything against her, but he
was Just naturally tired of seeing her
around. . And, anyway, Poppaea Sablna, a
woman who lived across the street, did
her hair much prettier, and Nero had rea
son to believe that were Octavla out of
the way she would let him come over and
sit In the hammock. Once Poppaea had
said coyly that If she got a chance she
would like to push Octavla off the dock
herself. She was Just crszy to be empress
and wear a crown and have her head on
tlie coin,1 which was a privilege" of the
Roman empresses. ' Lots of people have
tried to get ahead on the coin, and so per
haps Poppaea is not to be blamed. After
getting rid of Octavla, her brother, Britan
nlcus, and others of his family who clut
tered up the palace, Nero turned his at
tention to oilier branches of art. He ap
peared on the stage as an actor, competed
In the public games, drove chariots, threw
the discus and a number of other wres
tlers who challenged him, and took down
alt the garlands and cups that were of
fered. It wasn't considered polite to win
any trophies from Nero, and he was al
ways sure of favorable notices In the
papers. Any paper that failed to speak
well of his acting could be purchased at
a bargain the next morning.
Ills extravagant way of living told on
his purse after a while and he burned
Rome down to get the Insurance. While
the fire raged he sat on his front porch
playing, "There'll Be a Hot Time In the
Old Town Tonight" on his fiddle. They
came to him the next morning and told
him there was no money to rebuild the
town witn. rsero thougnt seeply for a
moment and then an Inspiration struck
him.
"Fine every country editor 10 sesterces
who says In the next Issue of his paper
that Rome will rise like a phoenix from
Its ashes," he ordered.
Thus Rome waa rebuilt more magnifi
cently than before.
Considering the riskiness of the Job It
Is a matter for wonder now that any one
should have desired to be a Roman em
peror. But as often as the Job was va

RHEUMATISM
FUHIFYDIG THE BLOOD
TILE ONLY PERMANENT CURE
No case of Rheumatism wa9 ever
cured except by a thorough purifica
tion of the blood ; just as long as the
blood remains charged with ferment
ing uric acid poison, the painful dis
ease will continue. The pains and
aches of Rheumai'sra are simply su
perficial effects of the impurities in
the circulation, and sometimes may
be temporarily relieved by the appli
cation of plasters, liniments, hot
cloths, etc. But the person who trifle9
with this dangerous disease by de
pending on local treatment alone, is
certain to pay for the mistake with
constant suffering later on. S. S. S..
cures Rheumatism in the only way it
is possible to cure the disease. It
goes down into tha blood, and re
moves the uric acid from the circula
tion, so that the nerves, bones, mus
cles and joints are lubricated and fed
with nourish
ing elements
instead of being
continually ir
ritated and in
flamed with the
sharp, uratic
Impurity.
When S. S. S.
has cleansed
and purified the
blood, the pains and aches cease, all
inflammation isappe.-irs, stiffened
muscles are made pliant, and every
troublesome symptom ot Rheumatism
is permanently corrected. Book on
