CUPID BUSY IN NEBRASKA ftate at Last Takes Cogniza Marringe Industry. CROP OF HAPPY of the LARGE COUPLES State Board Succeasfully Resints Pres- sure in Falr Grounds Matter— Limited Powers of County Board (From a 8taff Correspondent ) LINCOLN, May 23.-(Special.)—Informa- tion gathered by the State Bureau of Labor and Industrial Statistics shows that there were 9,036 marriages in Nebraska during the year 1500. This Is the first complete marriage record ¢ led in the state. It was prepared at the office of the bureau in the state house from certified reports from every county judge In Nebraska Since 1500 attempts have been made an- nually to obtain a complete record of mar- riages, but not until this year were re- sponses received from all of the minety couuties, For the year 1809 only seven counties reported, but in the year previous only elght counties were missing in the record as published. The total for the Intter year, ncluding all but the counties of Dawes, Frontler, Holt, Keith, Kimball, McPherson, Saunders and Stanten, was 8,277 The same clgthy-three countles in 1897 re ported 7425 matriages, and in 1806 the total was but 6,639 Weon't Rats. ¥ rounds Offer A member of the Board of Public Land and Bulldings declared to the reporter to day that the board had positively decided not to offer more than $16,000 for the state fair property northeast of the city. He mmid the action yesterday was final so far as the proposition of the Nebraska Exposi- tion association is concerned “After thoroughly canvassing atlon we arrived at the $15,000 was a reasonable price for the property,” said he. “If that amount is not accepted by the Exposition association, and it we are unable to find another &uitable location at a proper price in the event the Gxposition assoclation refuses to sell, then the appropriation will lapse “The board desires to purchase the best property avallable, but it does not intend to pay more than what it cons!ders a proper and Just price. We are informed on re- liable authority that the leglslature of 1599 was informed that suitable grounds would be furnished fres of all cost to the state if it would locate the fair permanently in or near tho city. The bill passed by the legislature authorized the board to pur chase the grounds at a cost of not to ex- ceed $1. This authority, we are informed, was put fn the bill with the understanding that the city or the owners of the grounds would furnish the grounds for that sum." Tremendous pressure has been brought to bear on membors of the board to In- fluence the payment of $22,000 for the grounds In question. The Lincoln Commer- clal club has been active—in this regard and it has had the assistance and co- operation of several persons connected with the Journa! company, who own stock in the Exposition assoclation. The owners at the land are desirous of unloading their property at the highest possible price and together they wield a strong though so far unsuccessful influence. Rebullding Penitentinry. The State Board ot Public Lands and Bulldings expects next week to award con- tracts for rebuilding the penitentlary. Plans and specifications were accepted sev- eral weeks ago, but the contractors have until May 26 to submit their competitive bids. After the contract ia awarded the board will Insist that the work be pushed with all possible speed. This afternoon several members of the board visited the Hospital for Insane, Home for the Friendless and state penitentiary, their object being to better acquaint them- selves with the affairs of the institutions, Powers of County Boards, The supreme court in the case of the state ex rel Butler County Agricultural Association agalnst Coufal has decided that county boards have only ministerial power in the matter of paying the amount pro- vided for county agricultural societies.

No one could patent a putgboayd box. The In-er-seal Package is patented because it is air tight, dust resisting, moisture and germ proof. Crackers, biscuit and wafers packed in the In-er-seal Pate ent Package are absolutely protected. Their flavor and crisp- : ness are fully preserved before and after you get them. Be sure the In-er-seal Trade mark design is on the end of the package, and you can’t make any mistake. n When you order Soda, Graham, Long Branch, Milk and Oatmeal Biscuit, Vanilla’ Wafers, Ginger Snaps and Saratoga Flakes, insist on getting those which come in the In-er-seal Patent Package.
