THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, DECEMBER 1 GROSSCUP TALKS ON TRUSTS! Ohicago Judge Delivers Address Before Law Students at University, SHORT OF COAL AT THE INSANE ASYLUM, Ozly a Few Hundred Pounds In the Bins and Prospect of Blockade Creates Alarm for the Patlents, (From a Staft Correspondent.) { LINCOLN, Dec. 12.—(Special.)—At the chapel of the state university tonight Judge P. 8. Grosscup of Chicago lectured before the law school of the university on “So- éalled Trusts, the Next Great Step in Amorican Politics.” Judge M. B. Reese, | doan of the law department, presided at the meetiTig and introduced the speaker. Aft the lecture an Informal reception was given in honor of Judge Grosscup at the Lincoln hotel, at which members of the bar ot Laneaster county and others were present Judge Grosscup arrived In the city this morning from Chicago and was met at the station by a committee headed by Chan- cellor Andrews, Judge M. B. Reese, L. P. Ludden, H. H. Wilson and E. E. Brown. He was at once taken (o the Lincoln hotel and a 12 o'clock dinner served, at which were present Judge Reese, Judge Lincoln Frost, Judge Roscoe Pound, Judge A. W. I"feld, Judge A. 8. Tibbits, H. H. Wilson and E. B. Brown. The chapel of the university was crowded to overflowing by an attentive audience. Coal Shortage at Insane Asy A coal famine is impending at the Lin- coln hospital for the insane. The supply has dwindled uxtil but a few hundred pounds were left in the bins at 5 o'clock last night and a car which had been promised had not appeared on the scene. The peril at this institution is real and the ofclals no | longer deny it. There are many acres of floor space to be heated and it requires on a day such as yesterday from thirty to thirty-five tons for the twenty-four hours to keep the rooms of the patients at a hzbitable temperature. / it is said by the authorities that 100 car loads of coal are on the way to this city. The dealer who supplies the institu- tion has declared that he will give the coal that comes in first to the insane hos- pital if he has to haul it by wagon from the city. The outlook for a severe snow storm and the possibility that the traffic on the railroads may be blocked has given rise to great apprehension that, despite all that can be done, the institution will be leff without the means of keeping the pa. tients warm. It is said by the authorities that it will be a differont matter to pre- vent an epidemic of sickness should such a contingency arise. Wants Divorce Set Aside. Something of a sensation was sprung on the social set of the state capitol today when Thomas Edge made application to have opened the decree of divorce issued to his wite, Louise Wyncelow Edge. Mr. Edge, in his petition, sald that his wife had been married In less than a week after she gecured the divorce from him and that she had made application for divorce because “she did not love him any more.” All the time that she was not loving bim, Thomas allrges, Louise was loving Charles Hershey of Wymore, whom she has since marrfed. Thomas is just finding that out and wants the case opened and wants custody of their Aaughter. Mrs. Hershey is the possessor of about $7,000, a part of which was invested in a drug store in which Edge clerked when #hey were farried. Mrs. Hershey is mow living at Wymore and Edge is residing in Lincoln. Both moved in good circles here and were highly respected. Deat and Dumb Report. The Tastitute for the Deaf and Dumb, lo- cated at Omaha, has been through the mill during the last two years and the superin- tendent tells about it in his thirteenth bi- | ennial report, filed with the governor this morning. During the perlod covered by the ! report the inmates have been afficted with an epidemic of measles, mumps, scarlet fever and a case of diphtheria. With all these drawbacks, however, the institution has enrolled fifty-nine new pupils since Feb- ruary, 1901, and now has 180 enrolled. The board of directors recommends that the name of the Institution be changed trom the Institute for the Deaf and Dumb to the Nebraska School for the Deaf. This change 18 requgsted because the word dumb is very obnoxious to the pupils. It is also recom- mended that water connection be made with Omaha for fire protection. The institution has twenty-three acres of land and wants more. There will be no shortage in any of the funds, There was appropriated for the main- tenance of the institution In the various funds $41,950, and of this sum $31,332.29 h. been expended. A cash fund of $978.56 was created from the sale of vogstables, fruit, ete, and of this sum $656.93 has been ex- pended.

He will place them in the institute at Omaha. The father of the children is now | in jail and neighbors appealed to the fnsti- | tute to take charge of the children. They range In age from 16 to 3 years. | Values of School Lands. The report of Land Commissioner Foll- mer will show that the schools of the state will ultimately have more than $11,000,000 of Interest bearing values contributing to their support. At present the total inter- est bearing values belonging to the fund is $9.746,451.75. More than thalf of this amount, $5,409,228.25, is in securities of the | state, counties and the recently purchased bonds of Massachusetts. The remainder 1s | made up of the sale contracts and lease | coutracts, bearing interest. Besides this income the fund will have the rental of school lands, which under the present law cannot be allenated. The table giving these statistics is the first of the kind ever com- piled.

This consignment makes $139,000 worth .of the bonds that have been recelved. Recommends Normal Schools. W. K. Fowler, superintendent of instruc- tion, in the advance sheets of his report, which will be concluded by the first of the year, makes the following recommenda- tions: 1. Exchange the Industrial School for Boye at Kearney with the State Normal echool at Peru. B ablish a new Normal school at Lin- coln, 3. Provide for junior normal schools at Alitance and M 3 4. Recognize more liberally the first-cl private normal schools and denominational colleges of high standard. In support of the first recommendation, that is, an exchange of the Kearney and the Peru institutions, he calls attention to the distance, lack of rallroad facilittes and the expense in reaching Peru ob- stacles to a large attendence of studeats there, Of the normal school he said: ““The chiet mission of the normal school is to pre- pare teachers for the rural or country schools and for the grades In town and city schools. It is the duty of the state superintendent to give special attention to the rural schools. It comes with poor grace for those of us who are fortunately situated and who cam send our children to the best graded schools equipped with the modern improvements and in chargd of trained teachers directed by expert su- perintendents to advocate a policy which deprives the farmer boy and the farmer girl of all these matchless opportunities. Nebraska employs annually over 9,000 teach- ers, but only 3,000 of this number teach in the graded schools of the state, includ- ing all cities and the villages, large and emall, that employ two or more teachers. We those who still oppose normal schools to go Into the rural schools of cen- | tral and western Nebraska, without a pre- | decision of the question, and make a care- ful study of the actual conditions of thou- | sands of these rural schools, they would be ardent advocates of more normal schools | for Nebraska.

Came to America Expecting to Go to Congress and Lands in Jal RUSHVILLE, Neb., Dec. 12.—(Speclal.)— The December term of the district court | has been In session all this week, with Judge Harrington presiding. There are 100 civil and fourteen criminal cases on the docket. More than half of the criminal cases are where parties are charged with selling whisky to Indians. The most amusing case tried thus far was where the noted Jules A. Sandoz was charged with an assault om a couple of | his neighbors. He had a trial before the county judge and was found gullty and | fined $50 and costs. He was not satisfied | and appealed his case. When the case was called he bad no counsel, but he stated he was ready for trials.He vainly tried to got counsel to defend hm. but failed; and at last he appealed to the court, who in- formed him that as {t ‘Was a misdemeanor he could not appoint counsel for him, even though he made the préper showing, but the court intimated that he would have no trouble in getting counsel to defend him by paying a reasonable fee. Sandoz finally stood up and, turning to the law. yers sitting about, and in a dramatic way, said. “Will any of you llars defend me? No one spoke, and at last Sandoz walked over to Attorney Easley and arranged with him to defend him. He did o0 in as able a way as he could, but after the jury got the evidence and Instructions they promptly found Jules guilty. He was asked it he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed, He at once broke the silence with an outburst of eloquence im defense of himself and in denunciation of the wit- alnst him and the county attorney, and told the court he was poor and asked”| that the punishment be as “light as can be, and thenm, judge, I get out America and | g0 north, where the word of perjurers will | not be taken.” The court fined him $100 | and co As Sandoz was being taken to the county jail he sald in a most pathetic | REIGHTON UNIVERSITY DRAMATICS.
