Burned Out the Hornets.

AS a result of trying to burn a
hornets nest out of his yard, Jack
bloomsbury, who owns a hop yard
on the Patterson Island, across the
river from the city late yesterday
afternoon, lost nearly a hundred
cords of fir wood that had been split
for this falls hop season and had his
hop house threatened by the flames,
that also spread with great rapidly
to large pile of drift wood on the
river bank. Back of the dryer was a
nest of sharp tailed hornets that had
made themselves troublesome, and
with an armful of paper and kindling
bloomsbury endeavored to persuade
them to move there headquarters.
While he was at dinner the fire was
famed by the stiff breeze that sweeps
up the river every afternoon and as
it got into the long piles of fir wood
it was impossible to stop it. All the
wood was destroyed, as well as the
balance of a large drift pile from
which the wood had been cut, and
which still contained many cords.
The loss will run up to several hun
dred dollars, for the wood will have
to be replaced at once for the coming
hop season. The fire could easily
have been seen from Fairmount and
the wind blew smoke that way

for the benefit of Czar Nicholas, 4"
the socialist members of the Hessian
diet today protested against the ex-
pense that would be. incurred IN
guarding the Russian emperor on his
proposed visit to Frieberg.
The socialists declare that to tax
them for the maintenance and care
of the czar would be an injustice.
The threat was made that if the diet
did not curtail expenses for the
guarding and entertainment of the
czar they would appeal to the Reich
stag for relief.

There is a feast in store for the

merit is we'll known. In keeping
with the policy of the management,
everything is brand new. While
several of the old favorites still re-
main, many new faces will be seen in
the circle this season. A great deal
of attention has been paid to the
singing and dancing portion of the
program, and lovers of the old-time
minstrelsy will find much to please
them. The vaud Vile portion will be
the most expensive ever carried by
a minstrel company. Fred Simpson S
Challenge Band of twenty-five solo
musicians are a prominent feature,
and the management throw down the
gauntlet to any minstrel company to
produce it's equal. Watch for the
big free street parade at noon. There
will be band concert in front of the
theater at 7.3O O'Clock in the even
ing, and the program will range from
ragtime to grand opera.

this city the best of the three, although

in negotiating for the sale of articles on

but 1t is doubtful IL the income from this
source will be sufficient to defray all his
expenses, Members of the Board of Re-
gents say they are in full sympathy with
the doctor, but do not see how they can
help out OF the university funds no part
Of which can be devoted to the purpose.
This leaves the question still open Just
how 1t is to be answered is yet to be de-
termined. 1t seems OF real public import
ance that Nebraska should have full credit
for the great discoveries that have been
made by a professor from the University Of
Nebraska, and yet It seems likely that some
OF this credit will be diverted because of
failure to properly support him in his
effort The university is not at fault in
the matter, for DR. Wallace has had all
the encoura cement that is possible under
the circumstances to afford him.
.
1t has been suggested that some of the
publlc-spirited citizens OF the state might
feel sufficient interest and pride in the
matter to make them willing to provide
the funds needed. Just how much will be
required is not at present estimated but
it will amount to no more than what is
needed to pay the expenses of DR.. and Mrs.
Wallace while they are In London. At pres
onet no way out the dilemma suggests
itself but II certainly seems that DR.. Wal

people of the state whose great university
will receive credit and fame that will en-.
