the pill with speed Western league hit
ters had better atart ducking now.. .
Two practices were held yesterday. Both
were rather frigid fcffalra despite tha fact
the unfamiliar sun blossomed over our
fair city. For some reason or other tha
wind whlrh whistled around the ball yard
waa disagreeable. It had aU tha ear
mark of a traveler just rctured from an
expedition with Doc Cook. ,
. But Mr. Knix. manager' and oil mag
nate, put hla athletea to work, as they
ore Aiift IharA f i . that hiirnnaj, Th
athletea huddled up under tha protecting j
left Of the north fern- and pitched the
hall about a bit No fetrenaous work waa
dan, however, because Marty feared they
might catch cold following a sweat, .
', Brother JDave, well known eonceMion
merchant and bona of the Inanimate
thing around the park, had a flock of
hirelings at work. Bald hireling were
laboring diligently Jto cheat tha weather
man and the aun. They war removing
the anow from th ground ao that tha
aun could have a chanc to dry out tha
field a little. Tha Infield and ground be

. Until th ground become more dry and
the weather more warm Krug will only

effected entirely by cutting out new
buildings.
Th third bill covering university cam
pus extension appropriates only 1300.000
out of th V-mlll levy to b used tn thrt
purchase of land. This Is In accordance
with th guaranty given two yeara ago
by Lincoln business men that the cost to
th state for additional land to enlarge
th downtown campus would not exceed
t-TOO.OGO. Th remainder of the -rolll levy
for campus extension, or rather M per
cent of It, will b available for building
end improvement.

Th main university appropriation of
H.IHO.OW. which will be made up of the
regular 1-mill levy and money taken from
th stste genersl fund. Is divided Intof
Just two Items. These ar (750,000 for aal
arles and H30.000 for maintenance. Th
commute specifies that llO.OfiO of tho
maintenance appropriation shall be used
s a revolving- fund for th hog cholera
serum plant at the state farm.
Taylor flam Rejected.
W. J. Taylor's demand for Itemise ap
propriations all along the line and a
complete separation of th university
finances from those of th atate farm Is
thus-turned down, by the committee. It
Is understood that Mr. Taylor may make
another fight on the floor to Itemize th
appropriations-according to his Ideas. .
. Th committee made on concession t
Taylor, but Included a proviso in the bill
directing th Board of Regents to show
In Its next biennial report separate
financial statement for the Omaha medi
cal college, th Curtis school of agricul
ture,, th -university department of agri
culture, botany, entomology legislative,
agricultural extension, conservation and
geological surveys, agricultural substa
tions, hog cholera serum production, and
fell other activities of th university.
Efficiency Aareat. '
Recommendation Is made . that an ef
ficiency agent bo employed by tho
regent to look after the business or
financial affair of th Institution. This
will practically relieve Secretary ' J.
Btuart Dale of hla heaviest work, but
there I no intention to supersede Mr.
Dales In his position. The committee be
lieved that th regent should secure a
thoroughly capable man as efficiency
agent and gtv him targe authority.
No appropriation whatever Is made for
the agricultural experiment station
at Culbortson and Valentine. On the
other hand the bill as amended by the
committee direct the regents to sell
th property and i equipment at ' thoa
places. Th money derived from the sal
Is to b turned Into th university cash
fund and thereafter expended for build
ing up th agricultural school at Curtis

Items la Detail.
Kach of the four state normal schools I
allowed exactly the same amount for
salaries, maintenance and genersl ex
pense as It had during tho last two yeara
Th total under this head la 500,00
divided aa follows:
Peru, llio,000; Kearney, 1150,000; Wayne
1110,000; Chadron, I7S.000.
In addition the committee provides for
improvements at th different achoola as
herewith:
Peru, SJft.SOQ; Kearney, $2,500; Wayne,
SKiOO; Chadron, 13.000.
The Peru appropriation for Improve
menta Includea f,000 to remodel the old

Kaonah New Bvtldlnae.

pent for new buildings at th normal

of .S3 mill will not be used. Th esti
mated revenue from that levy Is $750,009,

us of 'heir several cash fund which will
add some $00,000 to their revenues.
While some differences of opinion de
veloped at th meetings of the commit
tee, ther will be no minority ' report.
Members of ' the committee state that
virtually everything was agreed upon
without serious dissension. It I under
stood that only on vote waa cast agalnit
the proposal tovabandon th experiment
station at Valentine and Culbertson. It
Is understood though not positively that
Mr. Bate was th member so voting.
