THE OMAHA DA ILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, —_—nm——— e AUGURT 26, 1903, JUNIOR NORMALS A SUCCESS Approximately Oze Thousand Teachers| Attend the Five Bessions ) | JUDICIAL NOMINATIONS COME CHEAP | Irate Hunter Takes a Punch at Game Warden Who W (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Aug. (8pecial.)—~The office torce In Buperintendent Fowler's office has forwarded requests to the officlals of the five junior normal schools which were in | session for ten weeks during the summer and just recently closed for complete rec- ords of their enroliment and other data | bearing upon the value of the Institutions | involved to the state. The total enroll- ment for the five schools, ch were located at North Platte, Holdreg¥, McCook, Alltance and Valentine, approximated 1,00 teachers. ‘Of this number Deputy Superin- tendent McBrien estimates that fully three. | fourth would not have had the advantage | of & summer normal course, but for the | establishment of the junior-normals. The attendance at the state university summer school and at the summer session at the Peru normal was slightly reduced by the | existence of the junior schools, but thek | authorization by the last legislature is recognized as a distinct gain to the educa- tional interests of the state by having given almost 1,000 teachers in the western sec- tion an opportunity to add to their pro- ficlency in their profession and having | proved their worth as to every other stand- | point from which the junior normal pro- | ject can be viewed. Superintendeat Fow- | | | | ler nd his assistants will prepare the sta- tistics bearing upon the junior normals and | forward them to educators generally throughout the state. . | | Render Their Accounts. Three of the recent aspirants for judge ships in Nebraska have reported to the sec- retary of state the cost of their campaigns. James C. Robinson of Hartington, republi- can candidate in the Eighth district, says | his nomination cost him $4.8, of which $2.04 was for car fare, .30 for his meals, 5 cents for printing and 10 cents for post- age.

Harrington of O'Neill confesses that he spent $8.10 in collaring the nomin: tion of the populists and democrats at Valentine for the Fifteenth district, $4.60 of the amount belng his railroad fare and $3.50, his meals and lodging. .

SCHALLENBERG WILL NOT QUIT Angered at Defeat Takes Law Into His Own Hands, FREMONT, Neb., Aug. 2%.—(Speclal Tele- gram.)—8herift Bauman went to Scribner teday and arrested Jake Schallenberg on the charge of violating his bond to keep the peace by cutting and hauling some hay on land belonging to Barnard Monich. The trouble grows out of the | Schal'enberg-Kroeger case, which has been | |in the varfous courts of this state for | twenty-five years, and finally resulted In | a decree awarding the land in controversy | to the defendants, Kroeger and Monich, | | in Lawsuit He | and the issue of a perpetual injunetion restraining the Schallenbergs from inter- fering with the land. | case through all the courts and being | | beaten at every turn, they took the law into thefr own hands,and burned some hay ! which Monich, the present owner, had cut. Jake and his father were arrested, and, vhile admitting that they had burned the pleaded not gullty and gave bond for thelr appearance at the next term of the district court. Jake was at once arrested on a peace warrant, charging him with making irea to kill or assault Monich nd de- stroy the hay on the land, and showing a very clear.intent to carry the threats into execution. After a day in jail he gave ball on that charge, and assured the court that he would not even set a foot on the land. Instead of doing so, he went home and cut some more of Monich's hay, ac- | cording to the reports of the neighbors Monich sent some teams and hauled the hay oft. This aroused Jake's ire still more than being arrested twice, and It is | clalmed he made a second attempt to get | the hay, and succeeded. His arrest was | made at he instigation of his bondsman. In addition to the two criminal charges | against him he will probably have to face a complaint for contempt of the district court. The Schallenbergs are very ignorant and unable to understand English. They claim that their woes are the result of a con- spiracy of the dozen or more different lawyers they have employed, juries, courts, witnesses, their neighbors and the public generally to beat them out of the land. Republicans Will Win in Knox. CENTER, Neb., Aug. %.—(Special.)—The democrats and populists met in convention in this county today and attempted to “fuse,’ and for a time the proceedings were as amusing as any circus. The demo- crats, who are in the minority, asked for three of the minor offices, and the “'pops” granted their request. Then, after consid- ering how casy the “pops” were, the dem- ocrats concluded that they had better ask for two of the most important. Some of the popullsts, thinking that to let two of- flces go was better than three, jumped up and carrled the proposition. Then it transpired that the two offices sought by the democrats were the very two that the “pops” wanted themselves. Pandemonium reigned supreme for about an hour, and many “pops” left the convention hall and threatened to go home. However, the bolt was finally patched up by the remaining ones, and the demecrats were allowed to take the offices of clerk of the district court, county judge and superintendent of instruction, the populists taking the rest. It is conceded by many delcgates from both parties that the republicans will sweep the plattey clean this fall. Child Causes Reconciliation.
