infected Min; Tubereulosis.

The testing of milk TO discover
tuberculosis In cows was declared to
be of prime Importance in the war
against consumption by DR.. G. A.
Young, retiring superintendent OF the
Norfolk hospital, speaking at the high
school building last evening under the
auspices of the Woman's club, which
organization the nation over once n
year holds a meeting for the discus
sion of this disease.
DR.. Young told that following an
epidemic of tuberculosis in the Lin
coin hospital, the herds were tested
and it was found that something like
30 per cent of the cows at the hos
pital had tuberculosis Something of
the same condition was found at Hast
ings. The recent test made of the
cows at the Norfolk hospital disclosed
no tuberular cattle. The institution
was also free of tuberculosis
DR.. Young also urged women to
wear short skirts which would not
sweep the sidewalk. A third factor if
the fight would be the destruction of
all sputum from consumptives.
Tuberculosis from its nature was,
he said, a durable disease if treated
before its advance stages were
reached. Fresh air he said was the
remedy. He showed the tendency of
the healthy body to attack tubercular
germs when they first lodge in the in.
ternal portions of the body.
DR.. Young's talk was declared to be
highly valuable and may lead to some
definite results. - his address he
outlined the prevalence of tubercu-
loss and the damage resulting, the
different ways in which the disease
spread and the methods of prevention
and cure.
Several pleasing musical numbers
filled out the program.
About $50 people attended the meet
ing.

Merchant Shot Man in Brain.

Lindsay, Neb., Feb Especial to
The News: Nathan Bordy, a transient
merchant, shot a man named Johnson
over the right ear, the ball penetrat-
ing the brain, rendering the victim
unconscious. When he regained con-
seriousness today he was given chloro-
form and the bullet probed for, but It
had penetrated the brain so deep that
in order to get the bullet out the man
would have to be disturbed too much,
so it was left in, awaiting further de.
velopments. Hopes are held out for
recovery with the bullet in the brain.
Johnson is a man about forty years
old, a charge of Mr.. Rankin who came
here from Wahoo with him three
months ago, He was in the store run
by Nathan Bordy, a transient mer-
chant, when Bordy had a Stevens %
calibre rile-barrel pistol which he had
been using for shooting mice. The
trigger worked very easily. Not think
ing it was loaded, he was fooling with
it, resulting in shooting Johnson.
Bordy is almost frantic with grief.

Mr.. Ground Hog, walking bright and
early Tuesday morning, stepped out
of his hole just as his father and his
grandsires have done before him. And

time and there it lay just to the west
of him. The shadow was there and
though the day was pleasant Mr..
Ground Hog, having no desire to
freeze through six more weeks of
winter, turned back into his hole.
Then he put the lid on, turned the
lights out and went TO sleep.
