exciting game from Lynch, Neb.
Lynch out-batted the locals, but near
ly perfect support back of Kirkland
saved the game. The locals scored
four runs in the sixth on three hits,
walk and three errors, two of which
allowed runners to reach their bases
after they had been caught between
bases. But for these two misplays
Gregory would not have scored until
the ninth. Lefty Marsh, for Lynch,
was hit hard, but kept the hits well
scattered. Five safe hits, walk and

three earned runs.

Mayor Edward p. Pike and County
Attorney E. e. Stanton Of Stroms
berg were in town to overcome the eff.
lects of the unfortunate publicity
their community has received recent
ly. The objection urged by these
gentlemen Is that facts regarding the
epidemic of spinal meningitis publish.
ed over a month ago are being copied
without date and published after the
disease has died out and this gives
the impression that the epidemic is
still raging. They claim that there is
not a single case in their territory
now, that the public schools will open
next week and the town and county
have a clean bill of health. In justice
to that town what was called the
Stromsberg epidemic covered parts of
three counties and was as prevalent in
the country as in town and cases ex-
listed thirty miles from Stromsberg,
but because of the activity of the Of
ficials in the latter town and county
in trying to eradicate the disease and
their commendable movement to close
the churches, Sunday schools and to
forbid public gatherings they are being
injured financially where otherwise
they might have escaped much of this
notoriety by different policy. AS
was natural there were many stories
exaggerated and, no doubt, some facts
suppressed in the reports gathered by
the newspapers and while Stromsberg
and Polk county are free from the di-
sease it is extending to other parts
of the state and into Iowa, according
to the Investigations of the state
board of health. Mr.. Stanton, while in
Norfolk, quoted DR.. Wilson of the state
board as having said that the disease
would probably spread all over the
state when cold weather arrived.

Wayne Normal Notes.

The different graduating classes
have not been fully organized as yet,
but from what we now know, the
scientific class will out-nunber any
previous scientific class.
The state superintendent has called
all the college and normal school presi-
dents to Lincoln Thursday morning
for a conference relative to the work
Of these institutions. Fred Pile, our
president, bears the distinction of be-
ing the youngest normal school presi-
dent of the state. We doubt, however,
If there is one more capable.
The reception given by the faculty
to the new students at the opening of
the term was a most enjoyable affair.
Short speeches were made by Pro.
fessors Pile, Bright and Huntemer
and a reading by Miss Carroll made
up the program. After these came the
social in the gymnasium which was
under the direction of some of the
older students.
Prof. Huntemer has returned from
Stout training school, at Menomonie,
Wis, where he has been for month,
taking postgraduate work. His de-
partment is certainly much alive, as
it is bound to be with such an enthus-
iastic man at the head. When the pub.
lie schools begin, it will be a very
busy place.
Prof. Perley Thorne of the mathema-
tics department of New York univer-
sity, is here as a guest of President
Fred Pile. These men were room
mates in Colby college, at Waterville.
Maine.
Several from the high school have
taken advantage of the opportunity to
get in their normal training work now,
as the public school will likely con-
tinue through the summer, and to Sc
cure second grade certificate, one
must have eight weeks of normal train
ing.
The new year has opened up with
a good attendance, even better than a
year ago. This certainly is not only
gratifying to the management, but to
the friends of the school as well.
The faculty are all again in their
places and the work moves along with
out a hitch. We doubt If a more com
petent or enthusiastic corps of teachers
can be found than those of the Ne
braska normal college. Each one has
made special preparation for his or her
particular work.

Guy Andrews a Tramp print"

Guy Andrews, the only son of E.
Benjamin Andrews, formerly presi-
dent of Brown university, superinten-
dent of Chicago's public schools and
chancellor at the university of Ne
braska, as well as author of several
books on history and money, and him
self once representative OF the
United States government in an inter-
national money congress, Guy An
drews studied law at Brown univer-
sity while his father was at it's head,
and incidentally the young fellow was
one of the founders of the daily paper
at Brown-one of the first of the uni
versity dailies.
Today Guy Andrews law education
has been relegated to the chimney cor
ner of his brain and the meagre in
dustrial training which he picked up
getting out the Brown daily paper is
being used by him to earn his living
living amounting to $12 or so a week.
Instead of a lawyer of the great
ness of his father, young Andrews is
rowing printer, setting type here and
there and everywhere that he can get
a job.
Thus the only son CT this great edu-
Gator who has trained many an Ameri-
can for highest fame in professional
calling, drops from the ranks of the
professionally educated to earn a
living as best he can with his two
hands and his fingers.
Guy Andrews learned the printers
case when he helped launch, as an in
cidental feature of his college ca
reer, the daily paper at Brown. And
that knowledge of the case, clinging
through years, stood him in good stead
when the law that he had learned
proved useless.
1t was five years ago that DR.. An
drews' son became an ordinary prin-
ter, drifting from place to place to
earn a living. And not in those five
years, until he reached Norfolk the
other day, did he meet soul that
he had ever seen before. He was
really and truly a great mans son
making his way upon strictly his own
merits.
Five years ago Andrews had started
practicing law in the city of Lincoln
with prominent legal man as a part
ner. Drink took him to the inebriate
asylum. After he left the hospital he
hadn't the nerve to return to Lincoln
and to his law office. Instead, he went
to Kansas City. There he worked for
in @
heavy work for him-hes of slight
build-and he tried Kansas harvest
fields with no better success. He did
all sorts of odd jobs of manual labor

ed along with him, arm and arm.
He woke up one morning in an
Oklahoma hotel with 25 cents in his
pocket. He rubbed his eyes and told
himself that he was up against the
world-and that he must take a new
tack.
Then there flashed through his
mind the memory of Brown days
days when he helped get out the daily
college paper. Those were days, too,
when his fraternity pin meant social
prestige and when he was more apt
to be seen in dress suit than in the
garb that he was wearing.
At Brown, he recalled, he had learn
ed the printers case. And this last
straw he grabbed at. Here was a
