In reply to a letter of inquiry, concerning
his western trip during the holidays, Pres
ident Schurman of Cornell university has
written C. s. Young Of this city that while
he may take such trip. 1t has not been fully
decided upon. In his letter he says: Il
have not promised to take a western trip
during the holidays, but in response to an
invitation from Denver, l said that while
l could not accept that invitation alone, if
number Of our alumni associations in i'm
portant western centers would invite me to
meet with them at dates following one an
other as closely as the distance between
the cities made it advisable, / should be
glad to consider the invitations, and hoped
that 1t might be possible for me to make
the trip"
This leaves the matter in the hands of the
Cornell alumni of the western cities and
they will probably soon arrange a series of
entertainments in the various cities for the

DOud.
Eli H. Doud, ex-city attorney of South
Omaha, now located at Boone, Ia, was in
the city Thursday attending to some bust
ness in the district court. Doud was one
of the attorneys employed by Vic McCarty
to defend him for shooting and robbing
Adam Kas near Fort Crook. Doud says
that after McCarty escaped from the county
jail he reached South Omaha by way of
the Hanscom park road and went to the
residence of policeman who lived In the
Third ward, had supper at the home of
the policeman and during the night went
to Albright. where he met one of his brothers
and another policeman. The policeman gave
him revolver and then assisted him to
conceal himself in an old we'll ON a farm
near by. He STAYED in the well for two days
and then went to LaPlatte, where he lay
in a cellar for two weeks while his brothers
hustled money for him to get out of the
country on. Doud thinks McCarty is in
Cuba, but more likely In Missouri with
relatives.

Favored by the Inns structOrs in Omaha
Schools.
At a special meeting of the Principals
club at the Board of Education rooms Fri
day night the question of teachers pension
law was again discussed and some important
details decided upon. 1t was decided that
the assessments would begin as soon as the
law became operative, but that no pensions
should be paid until after January l. 1900.
1t was also settled that teachers and prin-
cipals should be placed on an equality, so
far as the operation of the law was con-
cerned. Copies of the law. with the pro-
posed amendments, will now be distributed
among the teachers, who will then be given
an opportunity to vote on its advisability.
From the expressions of opinion received
by the principals it Is believed that a ma

About Prescriptions

The past few months our prescription
trade has increased wonderfully-the people
are fast finding out that we DO save them
at least 80 per cent on prescriptions. The
reason for this is. we do not pay office rent
or percentage to Doc to plug for us. If
we did we would be compelled to charge as
high rates as these 2x4 Pets.
We hope these Docs will continue to plug
harder than ever against us-the harder
they plug the more they convince the public
that they get ''rake-off'' on their prescrip-
tions from these 2Xi Pets. This talk about
pure, fresh drugs is all bosh. When a Doc
insists upon having the prescription filled
and sent to your home he does 1t to make
sure of his percentage. He's a sly fox.

A DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.
Peculiar Death of u Boy--RcIics of
Randolph.

PAMPLIN CITY. VA. September L.
(SpeciaI)-A very distressing and peculiar
accident occurred at the house OF Mr..
Thomas Cocks, near Prospect yesterday
afternoon. Ills nephew, Frank Crew. a
bright boy - years Of age, went TO the
stable to catch a horse. and vas found
dead hanging against the wall with the
reins OF the bride under his throat ff-
teen minutes later.
IL seems that the boy in climbing up
10 detach the bride from the hook on
which il hung lost his footing. and In
falling the reins caught under his throat
and caused death by strangulation. The
shock OF the fall, received on a sensitive
part Of the body, no doubt prevented him
from extricating himself. as he might
otherwise have done.
A lady OF this place while attending
Presbytery at Bethlehem church. spent
a night al Mrs. HEM SCOTS, and was
very much Interested IN some relics Of
