face falling. "Why, it must be easy to
find employment In a big city like
this2"
ooh, you'll find 1t time enough"
laughed Mrs. o'Hara, "and when you
DO you can begin to pay"
And 70 IL was fixed. Hetty wrote
homo a long letter radiant with hope,
full OF plans for her mothers coming,
and vocal with praise of their tried
friend, Mrs. O'Hara. And having put
the best of her store of courage into
the letter, she went to her dismal little
hall room and cried herself to sleep.
It was three days before Mrs. o'Hara
would let Hetty start on the search
for work. The old woman had had
dodgers before pink-cheeked girls
from the country, whose faces had
faded and whose eyes had dimmed in
that long, heart-breaking search for
work. She had tried to temper Hetty's
enthusiasm and to bearten her with
words of praise and such counsel as she
knew, but at last the day came for the
start, and the prim, comely little adj
ventures sailed bravely forth, not
seeing the tears that glisteDed in the
old woman's kindly eyes.
In a week Hetty was paler. the scared
look was in her big, gray eyes. Not all
of the Irish woman's jollity could win
from the girl an echo Of the old laugh.
She wrote daily letters and filed them
with white, hopeful hes.
"Cheer up, Hettyi You'll find some
thing to-day"

ROB STORE AT CEDAR BLUFFS
Thieves steal n Horse and Blackboard
to Haul Away Their
Plumber.

FREMONT, Neb.. Nov. 2O.-(special.)-
Bande Brothers general store at Cedar
Bluffs was broken into between 4 and 6
o'clock this morning and about $500 worth
of goods. consisting of silks. dress goods,
shoes and cigars stolen. Entrance was
effected by breaking the glass in the front
door and reaching in and turning the lock.
The night Waterman, who goes off duty
at 4 o'clock, passed the store about that
time and the door had not been broken.
A horse and blackboard belonging to Mr..
Allen, residing several blocks north, is
missing, and when he came Town town to
notify the marshal 1t was found that the
store had also been robbed. The rig was
tracked from Aliens barn to the store,
where it had been driven up close to the
wall and thence west on the North Bend
road. A pair OF bloodhounds we're sent
for from Valley and arrived at Cedar
Bluffs about noon. They took the scent
and started towards North Bend. The
burglars evidently took all the goods they
could load on the blackboard, and as the
horse is an old one and the blackboard light,
they will not be able to go far. There is no
clue to the identity OF the men.

FENCES ON PUBLIC LANDS
Some Reasons for Desiring Removal

MULLEN, Neb., Nov. 1910 the Ed
itor of The Bee: l notice that in this
mornings issue OF your paper that the
I secretary of the Commercial club of your
city beseeches congress not to enforce the
law regarding the removal Of fences on
government land. He says 1t will hurt
the cattlemen and Il does not affect the
irrigation bill, because all the government
land is in the form OF sand hills; he also
said he thought 1t a better plan to lease
the land.

entirely mistaken. II the fences are re-

pasture the cattle won't have to go with

Of a blizzard. which are not infrequent,

them into the shed. They won't drift

tell him Of several hundred Of cattle that
have been lost in just this way. Also think
OF the horses that are ruined every year
by getting cut in the barbed wire.
And as far as the lease law, that is the
worst thing that could be done for this
country. Nine OF ten ranchers will say
they had rather lose the fences than to
have to lease. Even IL IL entities one man
to only so many acres, why could not the
cattle baron get his men to lease land for
him just the same as he does to file for
land for him, land that probably they
never see? This is done to such an extent
that unless you're the possessor of a
claim right you can't hardly get work.

A few days ago the botanical depart
ment received a collection Of small blocks
Of rare Cuban woods from w. o. Aver. a
student in the botanical department nine
years ago. Mr.. Aver made the collection
while serving as a United States volunteer
in Cuba. He is now in the regular army,
stationed at Prescott, Ariz.
DR.. and Mrs. F. E. Clements OF the de-
partment of botany will start for New
York the first of next week, where they
will spend a month studying in the her.
barium of the New York Botanical gardens.
They will also attend the meetings of the
Botanical Society Of America and the
American Association for the Advancement
Of Science in Washington. They will re-
turn at the close OF the holidays.
A challenge for a debate this year was
received from Albion college, Michigan.
one Of the best known UNCONVENTIONAL
schools Of the state. For several reasons
the debating board thought It would not
be advantageous for Nebraska to debate
with the Michigan institution, so the sec
rotary Of the board, w. F. Meier, was in
structed to send in a de%clination to con-
slider the proposal. Meanwhile arrange
ments are being completed for debates with
Colorado, Kansas and Missouri. The sea-
son will wind UP with the debate with
Missouri, the only debate, according to
the present schedule, which Nebraska Will
have at Lincoln. The dates are not yet
definitely settled.
Religious exercises were conducted at
chapel Tuesday morning by Rev. Blake Of
Tecumseh, who is visiting in the city. DR..
T. L. Bolton OF the department of philoso-
ply spoke on the demand for teachers
throughout the state. Teachers are plen-
tiful for the branches Of language. litera-
ture and history, but there is a great
dearth OF instructors along the lines Of
mathematics and sciences. DR.. Bolton ex-
pressed the fear that the schools could
not maintain the university requirements
for admission unless the demands for
teachers in these departments were met.
He urged more students to take the
scientific branches and closed by advising
the students not to be afraid OF work.

SCHUYLER, Neb.. Nov. 20.-(special.)-
A mass meeting called at the Commercial
club rooms last night to consider plans
relative to better bridge accommodations
between here and Butler county at this
point, was poorly attended The wagon
bridge was examined the other day by D.
c.. Woodring, B. & NJ. bridge superintcn-
dent and found to be in very poor con-
dition, many Of the truss timbers being
thoroughly rotten. and the ends of many
trusses having drawn apart so hat they
rest but insecurity upon the pier caps.
Parts of the bridge are very old, and there
is but little question Of its being
unsafe, which causes fear of acct
dents likely to entail heavy expenses
through damage suits. There is from time
TO time talk Of v~acatlng the road of which
the bridge is part. or of condemning and
mailing up the bridge. A. feasible plan pro-
posed is to have the B. E. NJ. railroad bridge
planked and used as a wagon bridge, some
thing that it is said can be arranged for.
