Part of Soldiers
Resolution is Adopted Instructing
Commander Barnes to Allow
Veteran Use of Chapel.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)

LINCOLN, March H.-(Speclal. THE fire.
quent complaints Of the members Of the
Soldiers Home at Grand Island against the
treatment accorded them by Commander
Ell Barnes was the subject of discussion
by the Board Of Public Lands and Build
tngs5 this afternoon The latest action OF
the commander was to prohibit the soldiers
from using the chapel for their meetings
and today the board was informed that
Mr.. Barnes refused to permit them to use
the chapel in which to practice for their
Easter day exercises.
As q result Of this last complaint tho
board adopted the following resolution:
Whereas. The Board of Public Lands and
Buildings has on numerous occasions re-
ceived communications from the inmates of
the Soldiers and Sailors Home at Grand
Island, Neb, complaining that they were
for the holding of meetings that were In
no way to the interests or good
government Of the home, and,
Whereas, The Board of Public Lands
end Buildings is DESTROYS Of furnishing for
the inmates OF said home everything In its
power that will add to the comfort and
amusement of said inmates, believing that
they are justly entitled TO all that the
state OF Nebraska can extend to them. and
believing further,
That the chapel building was erected for
the sole purpose Of furnishing a place OF
public gathering for the members Of the
nome and that the expenses of heating and
lighting said building are so insignificant
BIS not to receive any consideration what
ever; therefore, be It
Resolved, by the. Board of Public Lands
and Buildings, That the commandment he
end is hereby instructed to allow the said
chapel building to be used by the inmates
OF the home for all gatherings of whuaso-
ever kind that are not to the
good government of the institution.
Adopted by the Board OF Public Lands
and Buildings this nth day of March, A.. ID.

Law Students
Do Not Sneak
Chancellor Avery Of State University
Announces Men Absent from
Glasses Will Be Suspended.
From a staff Correspondent

LINCOLN. March ACKNOWLEDGMENT
OF expulsion from the university and the
personal work OF Dean Hastings frus-
trated the plans OF the law students for a
skip from all classes in celebration OF
St. Patrick's memory today. and prac-
tlcally all the students in the college OF
law attended classes this morning.
At separate class meetings yesterday all
the students Of the college Of law voted
to sneak away from school today and
spend the afternoon at Crete. Dean Hast
lngs, when apprised Of the intentions OF
his students, warned them that such an
act would not be tolerated by the Nebraska
faculty.
After this warning from the dean sew.
eral Of the students backed out on the
plans, but the majority OF them persisted
in their determination to go until the
juniors called a meeting late last night.
At that time the middle class agreed to
abandon the skip day arrangements.
This action broke the backbone Of the
movement and Chancellor Avery then took
measures to warn every individual law
student not to attempt to continue the con-
spiracy.
During the night q force Of clerks and
messenger boys were kept busy in getting
out a circular letter to the 200 law stu
dents. The letters were not made ready
until nearly midnight, and after that hour
special messengers travelled over the city
leaving notices with each law student, so
that all Members OF the college would have
warning before Z o'clock this morning. The
following is a copy Of the letter, which
was signed by Chancellor Avery and which
every law student received:
Dean Hastings informs me that the pro-
posed Law Skip day" has been aban-
doned. and 1 wish to express to the stu.
dents Of the college OF law my apprecia-
Instructions.
Lest, however, notice OF the abandoning
OF the plan should fail to reach any OF
the students OF the college, l am sendins
this note to all by special messenger.
/ trust that by means Of this note l may
be spared the very unpleasant duty of in
definitely suspending from the university
any who might otherwise be absent from
classes tomorrow as a result Of such a
conspiracy.
A few Of the Junior law students re-
manned away from classes this morning,
but the attendance in both the freshman
and senior classes was practically COM
plete.
