LINCOLN, Jan. 8.—(Spectal.)—Chadron gots the new normal school. The normal board In executive session at the Lnicoln hotel this afternoon selected the Dawes county town on the fifteenth ballot The board members returned to Lincoin at noon and immediately after lunch, with- out announcing their arrival, the embers went into executive session and began to vote. On different ballots each town recelved three votes, which' was’the highest num- ber that town recelved. The votes were all cast under the Australian ballot system and each town competing for the school on various ballots received some votes. On the fourteenth ballot Chadron received five votes and then the location was made unanimous. Chadron agreed to donate to the state elghty acres of land adjoining the town and which runs back Into the buttes, and according to Treasurer Brian is an ideal location for the school. In the center of the tract the Chadron academy. an in- stitution eonducted by the Congregational church. This bullding will be donated to the state, though the board sald this was no inducement to the selection of Chadron for the school. Chadron is on the North- western rallroad and Is ‘in the extreme northwestern county of the state. The state appropriated $35,000 for the school. The faculty will not be chosen untll later, probably not until the bullding is eon- strueted. The towns which competed for the school were Chadrbn, Alllance, Crawford, Rush- ville, Gordon and N The normal board left Lincoln last Sun- day night and visited all of the towns asking for the school. One day the board made a drive of seventeen mliles In five hou but the members were well treated and furnished good, warm gooms, as re- quested.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan. 8.—(Special.)—The “horrid, mercenary” laundries of the country must prepare for an attack by the deans and advisers of women of the state universities. The American college women have entered & fight to lower the “tax on cleanliness.” This martial situation all developed olit of the recent conference of the coliege deans and advisers to women at Chicago, from which meeting Miss Allce Ensign, dean of women at Nebraska, has just returned. Miss Ensign declares that the prices charged by ‘most of ‘the, laundries in uni- versity towns:are o high that young coeds “canmot-wfford:to wear many white dresses or other apparel that easily becomes dirty. “Phe girls," 8ald one delegate, “Just have to scrimp along with thelr €lothes In ‘order to make a decent appearance. I know sev- eral girls at my school who have to deny themselves sweetmeats and other luxuries that young women like just so they can pay their laundry bills and have clean clcthes.” In Lincoln the coeds claim they find the laundry prices too high, and many of them are compelled to send their clothes home | twice & month to have them laundered This method they find to be much cheaper, as they then have to pay express only, which 1s considerably less than a laundry bill for two weeks.
