LINCOLN. March -(speciaI)-The SEN
ate this forenoon sat upon C. C. Burr's pro-
posal to sell to the state $50 acres of land
at $500 per acre. and the state thereby
saved $4,000, to say nothing about the in
terest on that amount for the next ten years,
The bill was brought up by McKesson, who
moved that the bill be engrossed for third
reading He said that by consent OF the
senate the price OF the land had been re-
duced from $500 to $375
Sloan moved as an amendment TO Nc
Kesson's motion that the bill be recon-
mitted to the committee OF the whole.
McKesson. with an anxiety that he could
scarcely conceal, begged the senate not to
listen TO the amendment. He admitted that
the land was too expensive for farming pur-
poses; but, he declared. the state main

AOOn'a SarSanariIla


Dear Sirs: My little daughter, Azalia
Beatrice. when three months old. had n
swelling on the gland of her neck, be-
low the left ear. which the doctors pro-
nounced to be scrofula. We employed
one of the best physicians in the town.
He first tried to drive the swelling
away. but 1t gathered again and had
to be lanccd. This gave u little relief,
but a month later the gathering came
once more and broke outside and in
side. The doctor treated her six
months, but the sore did not heal. She
was failing in health and we feared
that she would not live. At this time
| happened to read Il testimonial I'm
which 1t was said that little child in
Pennsylvania, afflicted about the same
as our little girl, had been
Cured by Hoods
Sarsaparilla. l thought that if it
would cure one 1t would cure another,
and we concluded to give Hoods Sarsa-
pnrilla trial. Before our baby had
taken all the first bottle the sore began
to heal and she gained in flesh and
strength. After she had taken two
bottles she was entirely cured and
now she is the picture of health

The Half Ratsrs Failed to Finish In Time,
and the Race Is Declared on.
OYSTER BAY, L. l., Sept. 25.-The sec
ond race In the series Of the best three out
of five between Spruce ~ and Ethelwynn
for the Perpetual challenge cup offered by
the Soawanhaka. Corinthian Yacht club
was a iluke The event ended, as did sat
urday's, by the race being called Off.
The outlook from "a wind that preceded
by an hour or two the timo Of start was
very poor and even when the boats got
away on the first leg Of the triangular
course it was doubtful If they would be
able TO finish the race within the limited
time Of five hours
The course was sailed twice over On
the lceward work of the first leg Ethel
wynn outsailed the British yacht and
turned the mark minute j seconds
ahead The second leg was a long reach,
and here again the American boat showed
her superiority, for whom the second mark
was turned she had increased her lead by
46 seconds.
Now began the beat 70 the starting
point, and hero the Britishor outsailod the
Yankee ON every point. by taking adj
vantage of every bit of air that was stir
ring and luiing up into the wind continu.
ally Skipper Brand was able not only to
diminish the load Of the Yankee, but ac-
tually to pass her. Spruce kept gaining
on this leg, and turned for the third leg
amid the scrceching Of whistles min
utos and seconds ahead Of the cup do
fender.
Tho fourth leg of the course was repe-
tition'of the one first sailed, with the cx-
oeption that Spruce was leading this time
As tho boats nearcd the turn it plainly
appeared that Spruce had increased her
lead.
On the reach from tho fourth turn to
the fifth Ethelwynn decreased the dis.
tance bctweep herself and her leader,
turning the mark but minutes 10 sec
onds behind
The boats had almost an hour to run
the last log but as the wind began TO die
out it was seen that there could be little
chance of finishing within the required
limit On the bcas homo the yachts met
with several difficulties I'm the shape Of in
torforcnco from other boats. In tho first
place the sound steamer Richard Peck
steamed directly between the contestants,
and her swell aided Spruce but retarded
Etholwynn Hardly had the Peck got out
of the way whom a big three masted
schooner, the Belle Halliday Of Boston,
Captain Fisher. sailing before tho wind,
made it necessary for Spruce to double on
her tack. Before coming about the Brit
isher was about thrco-quarters OF a mile
nhcad, but this action put her back fully
a quarter of q milo. Ethelwynn began TO
pick up at this time and was constantly
nearing Spruce when the time limit had
expired, and the race was declared of.
