PAYING UP ON SCHOOL LAND

LINCOLN, Dec 6-(speciall- pros
perity Of Nebraska farmers has a tendency
to diminish the fund for the support Of the
public schools. The biennial report of the
state auditor shows that the farmers who
had sale contracts for school lands are
rapidly paying up and thus cutting off q
per cent interest on their Indebtedness to
the state. The principal paid to the state
goes into the permanent school fund, and
insteOd Of drawing per cent interest is
being invested in state and county securl-
ties which draw interest not to exceed ~
per cent.
The diminution OF the temporary school
fund on account of the sale OF school
land VIII be used as an argument in the
next legislature to secure the submission
OF a constitutional amendment charging
the field OF Investment for the permanent
school fund AS more farmers pay off
their Indebtedness the interest derived from
this source will be reduced as the money
cannot be invested for more than 3 or (
per cent under the present constitution.
Mr.. Mor.enscn VIII suggest to the iegisla-
turc the submission Of such an amend
ment
While the item Of interest on school lands
under sale contracts has decreased, the

creased from s-S3, Gts} Al to $224 ol9Ay.

Norfolk Asylum Needs Repairs.
Governor Mickey has returned from an
inspection of the insane hospital at Nor
folk and he will recommend to the legisla-
ture numerous repairs to be made at that
institution. The tunnel, he said, was in a
bad shape in that the mortar was coming
from between the brick and the cement
ceiling leaked every time IL rained. The
cement around the posts in the cottages is
gradually dislntegrating, while the sewage
system is bad. This empties out onto the
prairie and Superintendent Young fears I'M

fever will result. Already some deaths
have occurred which he believes resulted
from the bad sewerage. The governor is

The Il. ;. :. Annapolis, originally
constructed as practice ship for the
midshipmen, and considered ample for
such purpose, is probably destined TO
end her days on the remote Pacific sta
ton of Samoa, where she will succeed
the Adams as n station ship. The
Adams has been long in service, and
is one of the ships of the old navy, as
vessels are now reckoned. 1t is a
problem what shall be done with such
a ship. on the presentation of such
questions the naval authorities usually
resort to converting the vessel into a
coal hulk. This has been proposed for
a number of vessels, but the cost of
conversion has usually been too great.
1t may be that the Adams viii have

her days of usefulness are about

of her battery, and Will be fitted up
