j | Nebraska l GUARD AYIATORS 70 FLY SATORDAY| _°nd Gege Gounty) Nebraska Air Squadron to Come from Lincoln Equipped with 1 New Bomb. FIRST LONG-DISTANCE TEST (From . Start Correspondent.) LINCOLN, 18.~(Special. )=The hor- rors of war \-m be brought home to the peopls of Nebraska when, on next Sun. day morning, town between Lin< ciln and Omaha will be blown up aM the country between the two made a line of desolation and death, when Captain McMillen and his war aeroplane make a raid on the country between the two points. Of course, nobody is golng to get hurt and no town will really be blown kingdom come, but that is the way the thing would be if Nebraska was infested with an army from Kansas bent upon getting even for the foot ball defeat last Saturday of its much-loved university cloven The trip will be made principally to test out a new bomb invented by sajor Arthur E, Haysel, acsistant adjutant general of the Nebraska Guard. Major Haysel was formerly a druggist before he took up the war game, and. his knowl- edge of chemicals has enabled him to in vent a bomb which can be carried and dropped from an aeroplane without dan- ger to the driver of the machine every Avolds Use of Matches. Heretofore it was always necessary to light the fuses of the bombs with a match, which was a dangerous as well as diffi- cult proceeding, dangerous because of the proximity of gasoline and difficult be- cause of the wind. The bomb invented by Ffeser Haysel can be lighted without the ald of a match and carries no danger to the driver of the naeroplane. If the experiment is successful it is probable that there will be a great demand for the invention by the army aviation corps for experimental uses as well as for actual service, as the arrangement can be used in the regular bombs for war purposes. According to the order issued by Adju- tant General Hall, unit No. 2 of the aero company of the Nebraska National Guard will leave the state fair grounds at Lin- coln equipped with bombs, photographic apparatus, etc., about 10 o'clock in the morning. Captain McMillen expects to obtain a flight of from sixty-five to 125 miles an hour, except in passing over Waverly, when, on account of the mayor's objections to speeding, he may slow down. He will land at the rigle range in Ash- land and when he again takes the air will continue to Omaha, where arrange- ments will be made for a place to land. Wherever a town looks as though it needed stirring up a little the captain will drop a few Haysel bombs to let the Deople know that it is time to get up. Right to Sell Bonds. That the Bankers Realty Investment company of Omaha has a right to sell its own bonds is the opinion of the attorney general without coming under the blue sky act. The oplalon was given on request of the Btate Rallway commission and is a8 follows: Referring to your favor of the 16th insf with reference to the Bankers Realty ll’h vestment comz -y of in whicl {nterested part! desire to know whether in the event i mpts to its own bonds it is required to take out a license under _and by virtue of chapter 198, Bes- wlons Laws or 1913, being senate file 4 and commonly referred to as the blul sky law, will say, without .xpre any opinion as to the constitutionality of the *aid act of the legislature, it is very evi- dent that the Bankers Realty Investment company of does not come Within the meaning of that act. / Examiners in Session, The State Board of Veterinarian Hk- aminers held an examination today on applicants under a recent act of the leg- islature providing that the veterinarians who have been in practice ten years are entitled to continue the practice.

Fifty Years Old. The North Platte depot and hotel was | one of the oldest buildings on the line of | the Unfon Facific. It was erected nearly | fifty years ago and shortly after the road | reached that city in 1867. For years and | until dining cars took the place of hotels | along the Union Pafcfic it was about the most popular eating house between Omaha and San Francisco. All trains stopped there for meals. Like all the other eating houses along the Union Pa- cific it was operated for many years by { Jake Markel of Omaha, who subsequently turned It and the other eating houdes over to the Pacific Hotel company, an auxiliary company of the Unlon Pacigic, After dining cars went onto the Union Pacific the North Platte eating house was converted into a regular hotel and op- erated by the Pacific Hotel company. The first story was used for depot, dining room and hotel office purpoes. Sleeping rooms were on the second and third floor, Y. M. C.-A.
