Nothing more s heard nowadays about the injunction that is to prevent Kearney from getting that normal school located there by the State Normal board. And It is generally belleved now that nothing will be done to thwart the actjon of the board. When the news first reached here of the board's action it was followed quickly by threats of injunction from various towns that were in the contest and lost out. Superintendent Fowler sald today he did not belleve anything would be done. He belleves also that Kearney was the best place for the school, and generally the selection of that town has given satisfac- tion. The board will not meet for several weeks to begin on the plans of construc- tion, and many things may happen in that time. Treasurer Mortensen is not here, and while he said he had mo complaint against the action of the board, except, of course, that he was disappointed in that | Ord 414 not get the school, it is the gen- eral bellef that the treasurer knows from. | what quarter the attack will come. Echo of a Tragedy. A reminder of the Broderson-Thomas tragedy of last winter, when Jennle Thomas shot and killed Fred Broderson and then killed herself because the man had betrayed her and then refused to marry her, is found in & dlamond ring which the dead man wore, and for posse slon of which many claimants are fighting in the county court The ring dropped from the finger of the dead man when he was taken to the morgue the night of the tragedy. About ten days before his death Broderson called upon Miss Myrtle Way, with whom he also claimed to be in love, and offered her the ring. The same day he had taken it from the girl who afterwards kil'ed him. A few days after the coroner got the ring Thomas Holman, who runs a fruit stand, called at the morgue and sald the ring be- longed to his wife, and that she had pawned it, and Brodlerson had redeemed it for her. He claimed also that Broderson had acted as banker for his wife, and that she had deposited with him $0. The cor- oner refused to give Holman the ring, and it was therefore made & part of the estate of the dead man. Through her attorneys Mrs. Holman has flled two claims against the estate, one for money entrusted to Fred Broderson and the other for the dlamond ring.

Phelps Redeems Bonds, The permanent school fund was increased this morning by $10,000 and decreased by that much of 7 per cent bonds, all because Phelps county 1s prosperous enough to pay oft its debts. The bonds were issued in 1883 as a part of a refunding scheme to run for twenty years. This takes out of the state all of the Phelps county paper. State Superintendent Fowler today sent out this clrcular letter to county superin- tendents: ‘Word with School Officers.
