OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, AUGUST COTTAGE PLAN IS FAVORED Oommission Which Visits Eastern Insane Asylums Makes Its Report. COSTS MORE TO START, LESS TO OPERATE Game Warden Warns Hunters Mistaken Idea Comeerning the Open Season om Prairie Chickens. (From a Staft Corfespondent.) LINCOLN, Aug. 12.—(Special)—The cot- tage system of caring for the insane will be tried at Norfolk if the recommendations ot Attorney General Prout, Aréhitect Tyler and Bupterintendent Kerns are effective. They came back from a tour of lilinois, indiana and Ohfo institutions much im- pressed with the plan. Mr. Prout says “We visited the institutions at Kankakee, 1ll, Toledo and Massilion, O., and Logans- port, Ind., and are convinced that the cot- tage system is the thing. It provides facil- ities for the better classification of pa- tients in groups of their own kind than doss the old system of housing them all in the same bullding; it minimizes the danger from fire or other accident to the institution; It affords vastly superior san- ftation and offérs many other hardly less important advantages for the comfort and better care of patient: N The attorney general says that his as- soclates on the trip concur with him in the opinfon that the cottage system is an 1deal system for the care of the insane and that they will jointly reeommend its adop- tion at Norfolk at the next meeting of the board. The appropriation for the new In- stitution to supplant the old one that was burned is $100.000. Attorney General Prout says he thinks that this will be sufficient 10 erect®he necessary administration bulld- ing and probably three cottages of the di- mensions required to accommodate about 20 patients. The bill for the erection of this institution imposes no limitations or restrictions on the character of the bufld- ing except that it must be fireproof, and the recommendation of the commission will contemplate that the cottages to be erected shall be of that character. Mr. Prout says that he was advised by par- tles In authority at ‘Toledo, where the ideal institution was found, that the cot- tage system is the more expensive in the matter of Installation, but is a decided economy In the matter of expenss of main- tenance and as well that of comfort and eftectiveness for the care and treatment of patients. Ho thinks that there is litle question that the board will be inclined to adopt the recommendation of the commission. This it will be able to do because the fire left standing the heating plant, laundry and lighting and water plants, while nearly or quite half of the brick and much of the stone that were in the ruined bullding | will be available for use in the new. Toledo a Model. General Prout says that the institution at Toledo is a magnificent plant. In addi- gion to the administration building, the steam plant structure, the laundry and other essential bulldings, there are fifty- four cottages detached, each capable of accommodating from thirty-five to fifty patients.. There is a central dining room, and smaller ones in the wards for such patients as are unable to take their meals in the main dining hall At Massillon there is also a central hall, with occasional smaller ones in the wards. The main hall is & sumptuous apartment ‘with marble wainscoting and other ornate and costly appointments, costing without ita | $10,000. - The super- ey g thers are a large number of cottages. ‘The asylum at Kankskee, Ill, is an enor- mous institution, accommodating some- thing over 2,000 patients and having about 4% attendants. It is not bullt wholly on the cottage plan, for there is a large main bullding which formed the nucleus of the institution, and there have since been bullt | twenty-four detached structures on th large house order. | At Logansport, Ind., the mansion order {18 stil more pronounced, the so-called cot- | tages being capable of accommodating |100 patients each and being comprised of | two wards, one on each of two floors. State Architect Tyler took coplous notes of the construction and appointments of the best cottages as he went along, which he_will be able to utilize in the plans for { the Norfolk institution should the Board of Public Lands and Bulldings conclude to accept the recommendations of this com- mission of Inspection. Governor Mickey to Enjoy Outin, Governor John H. Mickey, Mrs. Mickey |and four‘children will depart in a few days | for Colorado, the mission of the executive being to enjoy a period of sight-seeing and recreation in the mountains. After seeing {that the family is pleasantly located, the | Bovernor will return to Lincoln to be pres- jent at the republican state convention Tuesday of next week, after which he will again depart for the west to remaln an- other week. Nimrods Don't Understand the Law. State Game Warden Carter has just re- turned from a tour of the counties in the extreme western part of the state, looking | for offenders against the game laws and appointing a number of deputies, whose Quty it will be to keep a lookout for poach- ers. Mr. Carter during his journey found that there was a popular misconception among hunters as to the open season this year when quail and prairie chicken may be killed. The legislature of two years ago passed a law prohibiting the shooting of quall until the fall of 193, when the open season on these birds begins on No- vember 1 and continues for one month only. The chicken season begins October 1 and continues until the end of November, whereas the old law permitted the shooting of chickens beginning with September 1 and lasting four months. Many of the hunters figured that because the law per- mitted the killing of quail in the fall of 1908 that the law as to the chicken season was also amended so as to allow chicken shooting during September; but this notion, states the chief game warden, s a serious mistake. Mr. Carter has instructed his corps of deputies to rigidly enforce the law against chicken shooting in September and all offenders will encounter a stift | prosecution if they venture into the flelds | until October 1. Birds are reported to be numerous in the western ~counties and Game Warden Carter predicts some fine sport for the nimrods who are content to abide by the law. Appointments by t Governor. Goverhior Mickey today announced the re- | appointment of Mrs. H. H. Wheeler, of Lin- coln, as a member of the visiting and ex- amining board to the Home for the Friend- less. The executive also issued commis- sions to John L. Webster and W. J. Con- nell of Omaha, naming them as delegates to the American Mining congress, which as- sembles in Deadwood and Lead, in the Black Hills, September 7. State Houre vities, | The Chambers Academy company of Omaha today filed articles of incorporation with ‘the secretary of state, the capital stock of the concern being fixed at $30,000. W. E. Chambers, O. R. Chambers and L. P. Chambers appear as the Incorporators. The Lincoln Heights Street Rallway com- pany of Lincoln h filed incorporation articles with Becretary of State Marsh, with capital stock of $10,00. The project contemplates the reorganization and recon- struction of a horse car line running from Lincoln three miles to the addition of Bel- mont, the seat of Worthington aca: prior tp the destruction of that Instithtion five years ago by fire. ‘According to the plans of the promoters the line is to be converted into an electric line, the power being furnished by gasoline motors manu- factured in this city rather than from a trolley wire.

P & in Dope. Ray Hann, who was recently released from the penitentiary, where he had served an elght-year sentence for burglary In Omaha, was arrested today on the charge of having passed in oplum to the convicts. The warden found two bottles In a freight car. His attention was directed to the matter by finding in a letter to one of the convicts from Hann a number. He hap- pened to raise his eyes, while perusing the letter, and just outside, on the sidetrack, was a freight car bearing the same num- bers. He investigated and found the dope In the drawhead. The letter was deliv- ered, and in a short time thereafter the convict, a trusty, was discovered tacking Judiclously for the c Hann was released after being warned. The warden found that there was no law which prevents the furnishing of oplum by a citizen to prisoners. The only inhi- bition is against prisonecs giving it to one another. Raises Novel Question. The point is raised in an appeal to the supreme court from Sherman county whether a school teacher's pay goes on when his school has been closed by the Board of Health. Henry Howard has won in his contention that it does, in both jus- tice and district courts, but the board is stubborn in its stand, Henry was employed to teach the school for nine months In the village of Ashton, Bherman county, beginning September 3, 150, at $50 a month. He was employed by B. Lukaszcwski as acting director, Able Sak as acting treasurer, and Andrew Garst- ka as moderator. After he had taught for elght months and for one day on the ninth the Board of Health and the Village board passed resolutions prohibiting the holding of meetings in the town, and asking that the schools be closed because of an epi- demic of smallpox in the state, some cases having appeared in Ashton. Then it was that the board directed that schools be closed, and paid off the teacher for the eight months taught. He was not satisfled, and brought sult for the other $0, as well as for $16 alleged to be due for janitor services. Later on the board asked him to go ahead and teach the other month, but his contract time had xpired, and he declined. The board there- on made a tender in court of the $16 for Janitor services, but Henry recovered judg- ment in both the justice's and district court for the entire amount claimed under the contract. Board Takes a Tr! The Btate Board of Education left again this morning on a tour of the competing cities for the Normal school site. The board will be at Kearney until tomorrow. Then it goes to Lexington, thence to Goth- enburg, and landing at North Platte Fri- day. This will complete but seven of the fitteen competitive oitles.

FREMONT, Neb, Aug. 12—¢Special.)— There was another heavy rain this morn- ing which was not very welcome to the farmers, many of whom have considerable grain in the shock. Considerable wheat and oats are spoiled by growing. Late re- ports from the corn crop are not very en- couraging. There are flelds on the bot- toms not worth harvesting and some is fully & month late. Taking the county at large it is doubtful if the yield will be two- thirds of the average. Some hay is re- ported spofled by the wet weather. Two Inches Ratn, ORD, Neb., Aug. 12.—(Special)—This cinity was visited by one of the heaviest rain and electrical storms of the season at an early hour this morning. A water- fall of two inches is reported at this point and other points in the county are claim- ing that the waterfall is even greater than that. The weather still remains cold and damp and corn crop prospects are uafavor- able. Many flelds are well eared and give promise of an excellent crop, only requir- ing & few weeks of hot, dry weather to properly mature them. Demoecrat: of Attorney R. M. Hunt.

All that remains of terday's collapse is a slight feeling of lightness in the head Drs. Laponni and Davenezia visited Plus today and thought they found him almost entirely recovered, but decided that he should take a rest and an abstention from all work. “‘But this will mean such an accumulation of work that it will kill me afterward to | catch up with It,” sald the pope in reply.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12—~With all the cere- mony with which the Catholic church as- sumes on festal occasions the Most Rev. John M. Farley, archbishop of the New York archdiocese, was invested with the pallium at the hands of the Most Rev. Mgr. Diomedes Falconio, apostolic delegate to the United States, in St. Patrick's cathedral today. The priests and laymen composing the guard of honor assembled in the diocesan house and marched te the archepiscopal residence, where the prelates joined them. When Archbishop Farley, after the march from the archepiscopal residence, reached the main entrance of the cathedral he was met by Rev. Father M. J.

Wil- Mams of Mansfield, Mass. “For 27 years, from the month of August until heavy frost, I have been afficted with hay fever, growing worse and worse each year, and of late years I was unable to attend to my work during that period. “Last summer I fortunately gave Hy- omel a trial, and am happy to say that it entirely cured me and I have had no re- turn of the afiction since.” This letter is one of many that have come to the proprietors of Hyomei, and the results following this treatment have been so wonderful that it is proposed at the annual convention of hay fever suf- ferers to recommend Hyomei to all who are susceptible to this disease. Hyomel is a treatment for hay fever that combines the latest discoveries of science and the best of common sense. Knowing that a change of climate was the only way in which relief could be ob- tained, the evolution of Hyomel naturally resuited. By breathing its germ-killing and healing balsams anyone can have, at any moment of the day, either in their home, the office or the factory, a climate like that of the White Mountalins or other health . resorts, where hay fever is un- known. \ The Sherman & McConnell Drug Co, has agreed to refund the money to any hay fever sufferer who uses Hyomel if it does not give satisfaction.
