CHANCE FOR MANY TEACHERS All but Thres of the Oounties in Nebraska Report a Bhortage in Bupply, WPHERSON HAS NONE WHO QUALIFIED Many from Other tes Write to State Superintendent—Little Girl Who Was Acecldentally t Wil n./.-vn. (From a Staft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Aug. 18.—(Special.)—One of the strongest and most comvincing proofs of the prosperity of the people of the state, especially those of ti rural com- munities, is the scarcity of public school teachers. A few years ago there was a demand for practically every school posi- tion in the state; now there is a demand for teachers in nearly every county. Even in Lancaster county, the home of the Uni- versity of Nebraska and several other col- leges, there are not enough teachers to go around. Frontler county has reported forty vacancies o its rural schools, and the su- perintendent of Hamilion county has writ- ten the state superintendent that thirty- of ‘best qualified teachers-of that district have resigned. MecPherson, Adams and Box Butte have reported vacanclies and asked the state superintendent to assist in finding teachers for their schools. The publicity given the fact that there is & scarcity of teachers in Nebraska has increased the correspondence of the wu- perintendent’s office, applieations being re- celved dally from various other states. To all of these Inquirtes Superintendent Fowler replies: “I am in receipt of your letter of recent @ate. There are vacancies in the rural schools in mearly every county in the state, with the exception of Cheyenne, Ne- maha and Saline. In the western counties especially the demand for good teachers is greater than the suppply. I would suggest that you correspond with the superintend- ents of the counties in which you would bo willing to teach.” ‘The superintendent of McPherson county sends Mr. Fowler the following appeal: “I write you regarding the situation in our county as to teachers. There are needed In the county about eight teachers, count- 4ng the district Intended to be organized, and counting two each for the districts contalning two echool houses. In the dle- tricts now organized there are four that will have schools as foilow months, divided between two school hous pay $30 per month; one for three months, §35; ome for four months, $26; and one for twelve months, divided between two school houses, $30. As you probably remember there was not a teacher for this county to attend the county institute, and as attend- ance at an institute is a necessary quall- fleation it leaves us without any. teachers. I am writing to you to see if you can solve the problem for us &s to where we are going to get teachers.

HOLDREGE, Neb., Aug. 18.—(Special Tel- egram.)—At 12:30 today occuryed the most disastrous rallroad wreck for years in this part of the state. One man was killed and two others severely injured. Four engines are badly wrecked. Freight train No. 147 was just pulling out and was to be followed by a light engine, No. 116, run up the Chey- enne line, and was to go through the cut- off onto the main line. An extra freight train with a double header coming down the high line struck the light engine just as : was entering the cutoff. The engine was thrown against the engine on the main line, while the engines on the high line train were both thrown from the track, causing a wreckage of the four engines, the two on the high line being completely wrecked. The engineers all jumped. Willlam Fran- clgco, engineer on train No. 147, was buried beneath a car of shelled corn and it is sup- posed was instantly killed. There was a deep gash over his left temple, his chest was crushed in and several ribs broken. He was about 45 year of age and leaves a wite and one child. His home was in Me- Cook.

The passenger on the high line, which should have gone out at about 12:30, will not be able to go out before morning.

PARKER MAKES BEST SHOWING AT PLAY Man Easily Defeats the ion of Omaha and is Gen- A cluster of unusually brilliant matches occurred in the first day’s play of the in- terstate tennis tournament at the Field club Monday afternoon. Of the dozen or #0 star men among the forty emtries fully eight appeared in play on the opening day, and in three of the matches these cracks were opposed to each other. The other two had comparatively easy things. As a result of all this some of the best men in the entry list are already retired, and consequently the consolation tourna- ment in singles, to which only those de- feated in the first round are eligible, will be the vehicle of tennis very little inferior to that of the struggle for the challenge cup. This unusual bunching of the strong men in the opening afternoon’s play resultsd from the fallure of several of those scheduled for the preliminary rounds to arrive. Eight matches were arranged for the preliminary round for Monday. Owing to the absence of outsiders only three of the pairs were present and ready to pl It was decided to announce no defaults, but to play off some of the first round pairs in place of the five. This was done, five matches from the first round, which had drawn byes for Monday, being called out anyway. This brought out the cracks and generally one against the other. To summarize, W. G. Parker of Arkansas City, Ark, lald low Conrad H. Young of Omaha, 6-1, 6-2; Isadc Raymond, jr. of Lincoln beat George Howell of Sfoux City, 7-5, 6-3; Dr. F. E. Sheldon of Kansas City beat B. H. Graves of Lee's Summit, Mo., 6-2, 6-1; 8. 8. Caldwell of Omaha beat H. M. Holland of Galesburg, I, 7-5, 7-5; Barl Farnsworth of Grand Island beat Lee Van Camp of Omaha, 6-0, Millard Hopkins of Minneapolis beat A. F. Ryan of Omaha, 6-2, 6-2; Jerome McGee of Bennington, Neb., beat H. D. Copeland of Topeka, Kan., 6-4, 6-3; F. R. Sanderson of Galesburg, Ill., beat J. F. Webster of Omaha, 6-0, 6-0. Five Matches Deferred. The five matches deferred from the pre- liminary round will be played, commencing at 9 o'clock this morning, when all the men will be here. The winners in these will be compelled to play a second match, or the first round struggle proper, at 11 o'clock. Thus it is planned to get all the first round and preliminary round out of the way to- day and a good start will probably be s cured on the sccond round. The five pre- liminary round matches to occur this morn- ing are: W. F. Prowett of Fullerton, Neb. against W. 8. Gllman of Sloux City, I E. A Carey of North Platte, Neb., against John 8. Brown of Umaha; Richle Volk of Lex- ington, Neb., agajnst C. O. Hiles of Sioux City; C. C. Cockerill of Pittsburg, Kan., against L. B. Pasewalk of Norfolk, Neb.: E. M. Ashcraft of Chicago against Willlam Michael of Sioux City. It has been learned that Norman A. Web- ster of Hastings, Neb., who won the tour- cament last year, and therefore holds the singles cup, will not be present to de- fend his title, so the cup will go to the winner of this tournament permanently. Mr, Webster was_said to have started traln- ing for the event, but he later decided not to make the effort. He would have had to play only the winmer of the present sin- gles tournament. A large gallery was out to see the first day's sport. In this there were many women, and the crowd was very enthus tic. Scattered over the veranda or on the grass terraces below the spectators had a commanding view of all the courts. Great in- terest was manifested in the play of the visitors, many of whom ehowed beautiful style. Several strangers have already won many friends by thelr play. Raymond and Howell Mcet. The keenest and best played match was between Raymond of Lincoln and Howell of Sioux City. Though everyone did not know it, this affair was for blood. Raymond is champlon of Lincoln, Howell of Sioux City. The towns are about of a size and both are keen tennis centers. Moreover, Howell has long bewn looking for a chance to meet Raymond, but has never before had it. To add to the situation, last week McGee beat Raymond in the singles at Sloux City, and t McGee. Tke"” was the better man. Though the first set was a heart breaker, the very fact that Raymond finally pulled it out against great odds and then took the cnd set 6-3 proves that he won the match decisively. Both are clever and both play from the head. “Ike” won by playing a net game and wearing his man out in the first fierce set. In that Howell, by consistent, careful tennis, had Raymond 3-1 and then 4-2 and then 5-3. But Raymond made it deuce and won amid great applause, 7-5. They changed ends, and “Tke” took the other, 6-3. Caldwell's victory over Holland takes rank as the closest match of all, though it had not the speed of the Raymond-Howell go, and the conquest is a great credit to the Omeha man. Sam was at his best. His Lawtord especially was invineib Hol- land could never place it on a return. With that and & pet game which always won when he used it Sam fought to a victory through two flerce deuce sets. Holland s a college boy, being a student at Knox. He is also a member of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, so he has started up a great friendship with Raymond and Farnsworth, who belcng to the same “frat” at the Uni- versity of Nebraska. i Parker-Young Mate! | In the Parker-Young match the better man won. Great interest centered in this, not only becatise Parker is booked win- | ner, but also because Young is the champlon The latter may well be sald to have beaten himself. He had very poor con- trol, for aithough he could genmerally get to the balls all right and handle them, they went out of court or into the met so fre- quently that Young had no chance to score very much. His style was nevertheless pure, and his back-hand pass, his best stroke, Was at times effective. His own er- rora lost the match, or at least, made the score what it was. Parker Is a beautiful tennis player. On Monddy's showing he is the most finished in the lot. He is strong when It is needed, yet very crafty and herdy. He is very husky and athletic look- ing, and from his appearance he could work at the game all day without tiring. He won 6-1, The first 0 mes he took in a row. Parker allowed ‘on'" to wear light bandages in the set-to. Farpsworth had Van Camp outclassed, though the latter played good business-like tennis to the best of his ability and ex- perience. Earl won almost at will, 6-0, 6-0. Everyone was interested in the little cham- plon and his rapid play. The women called the men sald bhe was a “comer.” Hopkins beat Ryan, 6-2, 6-2, by knowing the game better all around, and playing from bis head. Sanderson had Webster outclassed, though the latter plugged away with admirable geod President Van Horn Endorses Pe-ru-na J“Lamr from Delegate Wilcox, . &Y LeRoy Van Horn. seeescccccsccccscccsscccnns Mr. LeRoy Van Horn, President of American Flag Day Assoclation, writes | from 301 Madison street, Chicago, TlL.: “Peruna is rich in wonderful medicinal qualities #s I have found | by repeated use in cases of catarrh | of the stomach. Iam therefore plensed to accord it my hearty en- dorsement.”—LeRoy Van Horn. Hon. Robert W. Wilcox, Delegate to Congress from Hawall and the Sandwich Islands, in a recent letter from W ton, D.

I can conscientiously recommend it to anyone who Is suffering with stomach or catarrhal troubles.”—R. W. Wilcox. Remedies for dyspepsia have multiplied 80 rapldly that they are becoming as num- erous as the leaves of the forest, and yet dyspepeia continues to flourish in spite of them a This Is due to the fact that the cause of dyspepsia is not recognized as catarrh. If there is a remedy in the whole range of medicinal preparations that is in every particular adapted to dyspepsia, that rem- edy is Peruna. This remedy is well nigh invineible in these cases.

Several points he could have switched by killing the ball at the net when it came at him in great shape for a smash. Copeland Shows Well, Copeland is plainly a young player of not much class experience, who did himself mighty proud by taking seven games from McGee in two sets. In fact, he ran the first set 6-4, winning many points by being wise enough to take advantage of McGee's lack of control. The latter is showing grand style, being easlly superior to all but Parker in that. Praetice should make him a power. Dr. Sheldon found himself against a ‘“‘vet.” at the game, Graves. “Doc” won, 6-2, 6-1, by passing his opponent repeatedly and smashing them merrily st times. Graves has No man in the entry list drew harder than Raymond. His first mouthful was Howell, whom he beat. Now he must play McGee, who beat him at Sloux City a few days since. Should he succeed in defeating McGee, he must meet Asheraft, the Chicago crack, who won the floal singles last Friday at the Windy City in the Aztec Tennis club’s tournament for the champlonship of the nerth side. “Ike” thinks he has plenty.
