The Nebraska State Fair board is
going to ask the legislature to put it's
appropriation on the basis of a per-
centage mill levy on the grand as
sessment roll of the state. If the leg
islature is wise it will do nothing of
the kind, and IL 1t is foolish enough to
accedey we will have a repetition of
the old fable of the camel sticking it's
nose under the Arabs tent only to
push in further and further until he
was in, hump and all. If the board
wants an appropriation let it say how
much it thinks is needed and then let
the legislature say how much it will
give.

card in the pack being designated by some
common name Of a man. when 1t comes
to deciding the bet the operator simply
calls I'D a confederate on the telephone
and he tells the card selected. by way
of example, take the ten of diamonds, the
code name for which is Marvin"
els Prof Marvin there?" inquiries the
operator. After some delay Prof. Mar
VIM" the confederate. begins series Of
small talk over the phone, which finally
winds up by the professor" informing the
dupe that the car he holds IN his hand is
the ten Of diamonds.
The game is generally carried on in sa-
looms, tobacco stores, barber shops and
other such places.
