R,” carved by a penkrnife on the marble coping sur- rounding the balcony on the fourth floor of the court house, have piled a flock of trouble on the carver. Douglas county's court house is the pride of the community and the cus- todian in particular. When the marble polisher at- tempted to wipe out these initials scratched on the slab near the jury room, his efforts failed and he ap- pealed to his superiors. Tuesday morning JIudge Sears noticed the scratch and recalled the fact that a juror whose name cor responded with the initials apreared ! during the May term of court. After consultation with the county commidsioners and the county at- torney, Judge Sears issued an order to bring Earl O. Risk, 1405 North Twenty-first street, into court to show cause why he should not pay the costs of installation of a new marble slab. ' During the May term of court there were two police officers drawn as jurors. The name of one of them was Earl Risk. Robinson Crusoe Has Nothing On One Lawyer from Omaha Robinson Crusoe “had nothing on” J. A. C. Kennedy. Mr. Kennedy has just returned from being cast away on a desert island. Of course, Mr. Crusoe was farther from land than Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Crusoe was cast away longer than Mr. Kennedy, But Mr, Kennedy's island was smaller than Mr. Crusoe’s and Mr. Kennedy didn’t have any man Friday to_be his servant. Mr. Kennedy was accompanied by Mrs, Kennedy and they spent ‘two weeks on an island containing only six acres and situated in Lake Victo- ria, Minesota. There is a hut on the island and this the “castaways” occupied. Mr. Kennedy figured on being cast away and far from the maddening crowd and law books and courts and non vults and briefs and such things for three weeks. “But there was nothing to do but fish,” he says, and this palled upon the energetic energy and dynamic dynamosity of the lawyer. So they sent word to the mainland to be rescued and came back to civi- lization. Mr. Kennedy caught some notable fish. All the little ones, under five pounds or so, he threw back. Rev. T. M. Evans Goes To Kearney Church Rev. Thomas M. Evans, pastor of the Grace Evangelical, church for the last four and one-half years, returned Monday evening from the conference of the Evangelical churches of which has been in session at Fullerton. The conference was presided over by Bishop U. S. Swengle, Harrisburg, Pa., who before his return will preac Wednesday evening af the First United Evangelical church, Twenty-fifth and Franklin streets. Rev. Mr. Evans was transferred to the church at Kearney and the pulpit of the Grace Evangeli- cal church will be filled by J. H. Williams, who has been pastor of Zion church at Blue Springs. Rev. Ira McBride of the First Evangeli- cal churci: was returned to the pul- pit he has occupied the last year. Rev, H. O. Toole of Dawson, Neb.,, was elected presiding elder of the Evan- gelical churches of the Lincoln dis- rict. The Lincoln district includes the churches of Omaha. Three lowa Visitors Don’t Need to Stop at a Hotel Elmer Kopke of Avoca, la, and J. H.

Officers found the two men between sheets sleeping soundly. They were arrested and sen-< tenced to fifteen days. Editors Dance Too Late To Catch Trains Home A few of the editors who were Omaha's guests Monday are still in town.

HOG EXPOSITION TOBEA HUMMER ~ DAYS START AGAIN Beést of the Entire Country to Be Exhibited in Omaha in October. MANY BREEDERS TO COME The hog is one of America's great | institutions. Likewise, the vastness of the swing industry can be grasped in a most comprehensive way by the assembling from the four winds the cream of the leading porcine stock growers' pens. Omaha is making a signal and un- disputed bid for leadership among the hog exposition cities this year by staging the National Swine show, the dates of which are October 2 to 7, inclusive. That the show would attract the country’s purest-blooded, blue-ribbon porkers was assured months ago. At this time, with the national event but a month away, the show is universally recognized by hogmen, from size of exhibits, class and prominence of en- tries, etc,, as the greatest exposition by far ever attempted in the United | States—which means the world. Russell Back from East. One of the coming show's biggest boosters, E. Z. Russell, associate edi- tor of the Twentieth Century Farmer and superintendent of exhibits for the event, has returned from an eastern trip, on the last leg of which he vis- ited the Iowa state fair at Des Moines and got in touch with the swine sit- uation there. Mr. Russell’s principal stop in the east was at Detroit, where he attended the annual meeting of the America Veterinary association, At the Des Moines fair, where is held annually the biggest hog show in the United States in connection with a state fair, Mr. Russell talked with and got assurance from Amer- ica’s most prominent swine growers that they would be at the Omaha show, either as exhibitors or as visi- tors. McFadden a Booster. The Twentieth Century Farmer edi- tor met one of the show’s super-en- thusiastic boosters in the person of W. M. McFadden, president of the National Swine Growers’ association, a man as prominent in swinedom as Charlie Chaplin is in the movies. Mr. McFadden in the last few months has ascertained from personal observation that the universal inter- est in the big fall show is increasing day by day until it has become the one absorbing topic of breeders from the Pacific to the Atlantic coasts and from the Gulf of Mexico to the Ca- nadian line, 3 @ That the local show will stand in a class by itself as far as importance is concerned is attested to by the fact that many breeders have cut thestate fairs from their list this year, in order to exhibit exclusively and make one “grand splash” at the Omaha event. One nationally-known Wisconsin breeder alone will bring forty head— a carload—of hogs to Omaha. Pick of the Herds. Visitors at the show will see the pick of the fanciest Berkshire herds in the land, the exhibitors=including breeders from’ Washington to Mas- sachusetts and from Louisiana to Wisconsin, bl Y Officials of every state fair in the country held prior to the national swine show inl attend the local ex- hibition, When Mr. Russell returned from his trip he found his desk piled high with entries and requests for reser- vations. 4 For the five days’ show prizes and trophies aggregating more than $10,- 000 will be offered. The largest num- ber of judges that ever officiated at a swine show in this coun!rvy.wfll be on hand for the local exposition. e To Limit Speed of Large Truckg on Paved Streets City Commissioner Kugel has in- troduced an ordinance for the regula- tion of large motor trucks over_pavcd streets and boulevards. The ordinance will be discussed by the committee of the whole next Monday morning, when the maximum speed for these large vehicles will be determined. heen received of damage caused to pavements by large trucks speeding as fast as 1wenty miles per hour Bee Want Ads Produce Results. /600D OLD SCHOOL | Students Are Registered and Assigned to Classrooms for Current Year. | REGISTRATIONS ARE LARGE | “If Mildred should be hungry | | wish you would please give her some |of these cookies” directed a fond | mother as she presented her 5-year- old for kindergarten entrance at one of the public schools Tuesday morning.

The first/ morning was taken up by registrations and getting the children assigned to their rooms, The enroll- ments at Central High and High School of Commerce were consider- ably above the opening of last school year. At Central High 1,740 have been registered, 'and it is estimated that 1,900 will have been registered before the end of this week. The first day’s enrollment was more than 100 above the same day last year. The total registrations at High School of Commerce were 758 at the opening, with an additional 100 expected. There were 125 more than last year at the opening. It is probable that more an- nexes will have to be provided for this high school. Medical inspections at the three high schools are well under way and schools. At Dundee school Principal Peter- son is inaugurating a system which permits pupils to seleet their studies beyond the required course, which in- cludes reading, writing, spelling, arith- matig, grammar and geogrophy. The | selective studies are domestic science, languages, physical training, manual training, music and drawing. Superintendent Graff has reminded the teachers of a rule which permits dismissal of schools when the tem- perature is 90 degrees or more.

Dahlman, mayor of the City of Omaha, do hereby proclaim Wednesday, September 6, 1916, “Tag Day,” for the purpose of raising funds to carry on the work of this 850- | ciation, and I trust the people of Omaha will respond heartily that this most worthy cause may not be crip- pled for lack of funds.” Cow Punching is the Life, Says Muny Judge Patrick According to R.

Our blood is filled with uric acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the elim- inative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general de- cline in health.
