WIRELESS EXHIBITION AT
STORE OF WARGA a CECIL
From Salui'lay'H Dully.
There lias been a great deal of
comment, expressed by the citizens
here over Hie wireless exhibition
thai is being- given at the store. oT
Warga & Cecil in connection with
the demonstration of the. Mazda
lamps, and the store has been
crowded with parties who have be
come interested in the matter.
The slock of I he w ireless is sold
for $1,000 a share, and up to dale,
while none of the shares have
been sold, great interest is being-1
taken by the public in the mailer,
as well as the wonderful lamp
which this (Inn is handling. The
Mazda lamps thai are sold by
Messrs. Warga & Cecil are wilh
oul a doubt I he best put on the
market today anil give a better
light for the least current of any
that have been shown in this city.
The large Mazda arc light, which
the linn has in front of their
store, consumes less current than
a much smaller lamp and at the
same lime gives a very bright and
intense light, and the smaller
candle power lamps will illumin
ale a room with all I lie brightness
of day and leaven no dark corners,
and a person can read a book or
paper without si raining the eyes,
as sometimes is necessary with
the usual electric light. Those
who have electricity in their
homes should call and see this
exhibition, as il is something out
of the ordinary.

THE INSANITY BOARD
PAROLED JOE PERRY
From Saturday's Dally.
This afternoon ihe county
board of insanity examined Joe
Perry, who is charged with being
an inerbriale, and after an ex
amination of the matter it was
decided by the board to parole him
and see if he could get along
without drinking. If the experi
ment is a failure, he will quite
likely be sent to Lincoln for treat
ment. THE HISTORY OF MAN FROM

Has Tied Up With No Click or
Clan, Never Did and Never Will
as Long as He Is Mayor.
V
There lias been several stories
circulated around ou the streets
for the last few days concerning
Mayor John I Suit lor and a re
ported tie-up he had made with
parlies interested in having an
ordinance passed by I lie city coun
cil, whereby he was lo try and m
lluencn the couucilinen to vote for
the passage of the ordinance.
The story is false iu every par
ticular, as the mayor has made
no promises to anyone iu regard
to this mailer and does not pro
pose to under any circumstances,
as this is a mailer in which the
city council has the right lo either
pass or reject Ihe ordinance, and
the attempt In drag Ihe name of
the mayor into the case is unwar
ranted and done to try and in-I
lluence a few voters. The mayor
was approached by the parlies in
terested in the mailer of the
ordinance and told them plainly
that, be vu!d wX promise tli'Mii
anvthing, and if they desired lo
el, any tiling through the council
they could see the counciimen
themselves, as-he would not- lane
the 'matter up.
Anyone who knows John Saltier
knows I hat tie would not pull any
body's chestnut out of the tire
and the story is a base fabrica
tion on the face of it and will not
be considered seriously by anyone.
