IOWA SURPRISES NEBRASKA.
Old Rivals In Hard Fought 8 to 8
Tie Game.

Lincoln. Oct. 25.-Nebraska and
Iowa played two 35-minute halves to
tie score, to 6, Iowa scoring with
two drop kicks and Nebraska by a
touchdown and goal. Iowa excelled in
speed, Fee playing fine game and
Hyland standing as a constant menace
with his drop kicking. Nebraska was
strong in the line, but handled punts
poorly and failed utterly until the
second half in tackling runners. The
chief thing to which the failure OF
Nebraska to win is ascribed as the
lack of a satisfactory quarterback
Three were used during the game.
The game was all In favor OF Iowa
except about ten minutes, during
which Nebraska braced wonderfully
and carried the ball the length OF th&
field for a touchdown.

Spinal Disease Now Spreading.

Norfolk, Neb., Oct. 90. - Editor
News: Whether this disease which
is now epidemic in Nebraska is men
nights or myelitis is a question for
physicians to discuss. What concerns
the public is that it is a grave disease
and is contagious from person to per-
son. When it attacks the membranes
that cover the brain and spinal cord
it is called cerebro spinal meningitis
and is rapidly fatal. When the inflam-
nation is in the substance of the
spinal cord and attacks the anterior
columns it is called anterior polio mye-
litis. The death rate in this form is
lower, but in nearly all cases there is
subsequent permanent paralysis and
wasting of the muscles.
The Daily News was the first news
paper in the state to give prominence
to the epidemic and was censured by
a few uniformed individuals for what
they regarded as causing unnecessary
alarm. The progress Of the disease
during the past three months has con
firmed all that was said in The News
early in the summer, for late reports
state that there are at least 600 cases
now in the state, mostly in the middle
southern counties. There is nothing
in the history of the disease during
the past century that would warrant
the conclusion that it will die out
when winter comes. The evidence Is
that the greatest prevalence and NOR
tality has always been in the northern
section of the temperate zone.
History Of the Epidemic.
The present epidemic was frs
studied scientifically in Germany
where it appeared in 1904. In 1905 4
invaded the United States at New
York and has meanwhile gradually
spread westward. The latest ant
most authoritative study OF the dis
ease is embodied in the report OF tn,
expert psychologists employed by /;
commission appointed in 1905 by tn,
board of health OF New York city, ant
which has recently been published
The disease also came up for discus
sion at the last meeting OF the Amer
lean Medical association and the cor
OF the world was that 1t is a nike
infection. All agreed that 1t is cor
tagious.

The state board of public lands
and buildings has finally signed its
report of the investigation of the
charges against the management of

condemned Commandant Barnes for
making rules contrary to the rules
of the board; such as permitting the

commandant in refusing permission
to the old soldiers to buy papers and
fruit and such things from peddlers

of the commandant in permitting the
farmer to live in the hospital to the
annoyance of the sick soldiers.

The state railway commission has
turned down the request of the city
council of Omaha for a physical valu-
alton of the property Of the Omaha
and Council Bluffs street railway.
The council desires to have an Off
cial valuation of the property in order
to get intelligently upon a pending
ordinance to reduce rates and an
other providing for the payment of an
occupation tax. The railway com
mission in refusing an action started
to force a reduction of fares and that

the property subject of inquiry. The
city was told it could employ an ex
pert to secure the information 1t de
sired and the testimony given by the
expert would receive the serious at
tention of the members of the com
mission.

with a small hook and Quigley mar
wells at his luck in landing the
game fellow. He fished with an
ordinary cane pole. One day last
week Quigley had trout that
weighed fully five pounds on his
line in about the same place. The
hook was too small and the fish
made its escape after it had been
brought above the water. Quigley
says there's lot of good trout in
the river between the falls and Di-

very wary lot and hard to land.
