Mrs. Davis summoned Joe Brown, 206 Hamliton street, a friend of the family, to her home and when he arrived she attempted to drink the polson.

She is the mother of four children and her hus- band is il BIBLE FIFTEEN HUNDRED YEARS OLD NOW IN OMAHA R. J.

DATE OF MEETING APRIL 24-25 Word comes from Savannah, Ga., of the great interest being taken there in the proposed Savannah to Seattle transcontinental highway, which it is proposed to outline and map off at a big meeting to be held in Omaha April 24 to 25. Those who are familiar with the na tional highways movement believe that tHs will rack in importance wi h the Lin coln Highway. The Trans-Continental Highway has been attracting mueh at- tention since plans were first announced and cities and towns along the proposed route have given assurance of their co- operation. Invitations to this organization con- vention have been sent to commercial clubs and automobile clubs of the follow- ing citles along the proposed route: Seat tle and Spokane, Wash.; Livingston and Butte, Mont.; Cody, Wyo.; Deadwood, Mitchell and Sioux Falls, D.i £lux City, I Atchison, Kan; Kansas City, St, Louis and Cape Glhrardeau, Mo.; Mem- phis, Tenn.; Decatur, Ala., and Atlanta and Savannah, Ga. Invitations are also being sent to the following Nebraska citfes: Fremont, Columbus, Norfolk, Neligh, Long Pine, Chadron, Blair, Te- kamah, Oakland, Lyons and Cralg. Each city will be entitled to two delegates and the votes from any one of the cities must be cast by a representative of that eity in order to be counted. All delegates will be entitled to the privileges of the floor, and each city sending delegates will be entitied to two votes. Those who attend this convention will see that the Seattle to Savannah Highway is properly organized and pushed forward on a practical business basis. Omaha is the natural meeting place for the first convention, inasmuch as it is midway between the twe extreme ends of the proposed highway. It is note- worthy that practically the entire dis- tance along the proposed route is made up of road already logged and well trav- eled. Much of the route is already marked, and a considerable portion of it is hard surface road. Motor enthusiasts will look forward to an interesting cony vention next month PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS A. N.
