At this particular election lie had intended to vote for Olmstead, the demc erat, but through some mistake he had cast his vote for Williams, the republican candi- date, It will be remembered that imme after the election last fall the charge was made by Olmstead’s friends that County Clerk Sackett had conspired with William to promote alleged irregularities in the eloc- tion.

His two sons, Willinm J. Turner and Robert M. Turner, both wealthy citizens of Lincoln, took possession of his property, and after waiting for some time the executors under the will, who were also the witnesses, begun action to establish the will, a copy of which was submitted for probate. The sons deny the existence of any such will and say that their father was in tho habit of making numerous wills and soon after destroying them. The executors, how- ever, tell a somewhat startling story. They say that after he had propared 1 exccuted the will he placed it in a 3 locked it and hung it up in a closet.

The display in the Forestry building, though fine, is rather misleading, for from it alone a stranger would infer Nebraska to be a heavily wooded country. But the unfavor- able comments called forth by the limited, not to say poverty-stricken appearance of tho Nebraska te building is enough to make a loyal Nebraskan blusn, It is small wonder that Hon.

The announcement did not cause much of a flurry, as the bank hud, for several days, been regarded by well informed financiers as being in a precarious condition.

The show is up to the usual standard ot its class. The menagerie and side show features are well worth seeing. Tho’ - barebas ling, tumbling, acrobatic -feats, bicy ding and wrial performances are features which no one who enjoys the gr American circus should miss. By fae th best part of the show. it may be truthfully stated, is the performance of the Japs. The Japanese are noted as jugglers and acrobats in every line of the business, but the troupe of performers with Cook & Whitby is compo: of artists who are with- out superiors anywhere.

To be sure of have ing a first-class article, ask your drug. gistor perfumer for Ayer's Hair Vigor. It is absolutely superior to any other preparation of the kind. It restores the original color and fullness to hair which has become thin, faded, or gray. Tt keeps tho scalp cool, moist, and free from dandruff. it heals itching humors, provents baldness, and imparts to THE HAIR a silken texture and lasting fragrance. No toilet can % considered complete without this most popular and elegant of all hair-dressings. “My hair began turning gray and falle ing out when I was about 25 years of age.
