PALMYRA, Neb, July 16.—(Special to The Bee.)—The jury empanneled to investi- gate the death of Mrs. Walter, who was killed by Injurles resulting from an attack by a vicious cow Friday, rendered a verdict late Sunday evening finding that her death resulted from a nervous shock and infla- mation of the brain. The jury blamed no one for the accident, thus removing any respon:ibility therefore from Mr. Francls, tho owner of the cow, upon whom it was sought to lay the blame. Mrs. Walter was a widow, living alone. She had no relatives in this country, but has a brother and sister living In Denmark, who will inherit the estate left, The school board has just announced the list of teachers for next year. J. F.

LINCOLN, July 16.—(Special to The Bee.)—Deetctive Malone returned this morn- ing from Wilcox, Neb., where he very suc- cessfully and quickly unraveled the mystery of the bank robbery at that place July 4. July 5, when the cashier entered the bank, he found the door open and the safe empty, with the exception of a sack containing $100 in pennies. As some drafts had also been taken, it was impossible to ascertain exactly the amount that had been stolen, but it was estimated at about $1,200. None of the locks had been tempered with or broken, which mmediately. gave rise to a suspicion that some one connected with the bank was con- cerned in the theft. Acting upon this theory, the detective began pumping John Cotant, an employe of the banlk and son of one of the directors. He at first denled all knowledge of the affair, but after an hour and a half in the sweat box, admitted that he knew where the stolen money was. He referred the officer to a young feilow by the name of Harris, whom they visited, and after he was threatened with arrest, secured a spade and dug up a little box which they had planted near his house, and which con- tained $532. He then admitted that he had $100 more at his store at Wilcox, which he also handed over. Cotant then fished up $125 which he had hidden at his own res- idence, making a total of §847, which, upon investigation, was found to be the exact amount taken from the bank. As the boy ople Robbed.

It is like a thunderstorm that suddenly sweeps up, purifies the atmosphere, and re- sults in a better supply of health giving ozone, It will result in congress devising laws whereby disputes between railroads and their employes will be hereafter har- monfously adjusted. I have great faith in the ability of the Anglo-Saxon race to govern themselves. The people have been asleep until awakened by this great economic earth- quake. I think that in twelve months we will have laws on the statute books of every state that will provide for peaceably sef- tling all future discords. I think' the con- tract system can be applied successfully by the railroads. Employes should be enguge under contract and should hold their posi- tions so long as they abide by the rules of the company and perform their dutles faith- tully.

WASHINGTON, July 16.—A scheme for & union of the University of Chicago and the Columblan university of this ety has been broached and is under consideration, but has not yet advanced far enough to warrant a statement as to the probabilities of its suc- cess. This project contemplates eastern and western university branches of the Baptist faith. The Columbian univers:ity has excep- tional facilities for post graduate work, but is not richly endowed, a condition of affairs that is exactly reversed with the Chicago university. The Columbian university established originally as a Baptist college and always has been dominated by Baptists, though it long ago ceased all save s functions. 1t is proposed to make the ligious feature prominent re- in the belief that this would enlist the support of the wealthy contributors to the Chicakgo result in the builling of a stel auxiliary of the Baptist church. It has been suggested that Prof. W. F. Harper of the Chicago university be the president of the joint universities, his time t ve divided be- cen tho two institutions. Should the plan essful the scope of the Columbian uni- versity will be modificd somewhat in order that Chicago university graduates may pur sue higher studies in the Washington ins tution and in libraries and scientific bureaus of the unive here.
