COUNCLMEN LOOK
OVER NEW STYLE
STREET PAVING
Well Pleased With Showing of New
Material Now Being Used at
Eed Oak, Iowa.
From Thursday's Daily.
The party composed of Council
men John Sat tier, L. L. McCarty
and J. H. MeMaken, and Bert Cole
man, who were at Red Oak, Iowa,
yesterday to look over the new Vi
brolithic type of paving, were very
much pleased with the showing of
the new method that is fast becom
ing popular in this part of the west.
The party saw the active operation
of laying the paving and were en
thusiastic over the showing made in
this class of work.
The method used in the paving is
new to this section of the country
and gives a much harder pavement
than that formed by plain concrete,
it is claimed. The process used at
Red Oak was that of laying several
inches of a composition of Louisville
limestone, sand and cement and af
ter this had been placed to the re
quired depth a quantity of the Sioux
Falls granite, broken into small siz
ed pieces was scattered over the sur
face of the fresh paving. Strips were
placed on top of the paving and on
these motorcycle engines were plac
ed which furnished the vibration
that caused the settling of the pav
ing and forced all air bubles or wa
ter out of the concrete to the sur
face and also caused the particles of
granite to sink into the fresh con
crete and when the vibrating process
was finished the paving was strong
enough to bear the weight of a per
son without breaking through in
stead of being soft and yielding as
in the case of fresh concrete. After
this style of paving has been laid
it is covered by a dressing that hard
ens the top and makes it so that it
can be used in ten days after being
put down.
The councilmen attending the
demonstration felt well repaid for
their efforts in getting-first band
information on the paving
will be - considered among - other
types for the paving here "Ihla year.
If the weather permits a large num
ber of the council and the mayor
may journey to Fremont Sunday to
look over paving there that is of a
similar type.
THE ETERNAL
TRIANGLE CAUSES
DOMESTIC WAR
"The Other Woman" in this Case
Causes War that Filled Home
With Destructiveness.
Being a Sheik ha3 its disadvan
tages as well as its advantages and
oftimes the gentleman who has imi
tated the methods of the desert
chieftains finds that he occupies an
unfavorable position in the midst of
a warfare of his women. This has
been proven in this city within
last few days altho instead of
wife causing the disturbance in
triangle it seems to have been
"other woman," as they say in
the
the
the
the
the
movies.
One of the residents of this city
has been living here or rather his
wife has been making headquarters
here with friends while he has been
pursuing the elusive dollar in the
state metropolis, and during his so
journ in the city that is known far
and wide as the abode of Dan Butler,
he became involved with one of the
alluring ladies of that city and this
fact reaching the ears of the wife
caused more or less comment that in
turn "angered the Omaha lady and a
few evenings ago she arrived here
and sought the residence wherein
tne wire was making ner home and
there staged one of the lurid battles
of the females for their mate, and as
the strife increased she struck the
wife or at least slapped her severely
and then fled from the scene of ac
tion. Sometime later the police were no
tified of the affray and Chief of Po
lice Jones hastened to the scene but
the lady doing the Dempsey act had
fled and made good her escape back
to Omaha.
ENTEBTAIN FOR RELATIVES
Mr. and Mrs. F. G. Hull, residing
south of the city, entertained very

From Thursday's Dally.
Yesterday afternoon the ladies of
the Q. Z. society of the Presbyterian
church enjoyed a most delightful
meeting with Mrs. I. J. Graham and
Mrs. Guy W. Morgan at the Graham
home and here the ladies spent the
time in their business session until
late in the afternoon when the mem
bers of the party were entertained at
the Morgan Sweet Shop, the balcony
there being very tastefully decorated
with flowers and greens and made a
most enjoyable spot for the gather
ing. Here very dainty and delicious
refreshments were served that added
to the pleasures of the occasion and
it was a late hour when the ladies
departed expressing their apprecia
tion at the very gracious hospitality
afforded them.
STORM BRINGS
RELIEF FROM SUL
TRY CONDITION
This City Fortunate in Not Receiv
ing Brunt of High Wind
Damage in Omaha.
From Thursday's Dally.
The large bank of dark hued
clouds in the northwest caused much
apprehension here late yesterday af
ternoon and the first touches of the
wind that preceeded the storm caused
the motorists who had their cars on
the main streets of the city to get
them into places of safety before the
storm broke, but fortunately the
storm proved much milder than the
indications had pointed to.
Some hail and a very heavy rain
fell for a fifteen minute period from
5:15 to 5:30 but did very little dam
age and served only to clear the at
mosphere of the humid heat that had
prevailed during the afternoon.
In Omaha the storm was quite se
vere and resembled in some respects
a repetition of the tornado of 1913
the district and tore out trees, para- j
nnrt hrnV manv wlndnwn in tliP weRt ,
w'Bich'and couthern part of the city. The
exceptionally heavy rain resembled a
cloudburst in many respects and as
a result the cellars and streets were
flooded for a short time.
The wind in Omaha reached a ve
locity of thirty-nine miles an hour,
but differed from a tornado in that
it was steady and proloned and was
followed by a rainfall of .52 inches.
The storm seemed to have been the
severest in the Field club, Benson
and Dundee districts.

DE MOLAY CHAPTER
HAS ANNIVERSARY
PICNIC LAST NIGHT
Gathering Held Yesterday Afternoon
and Evening at Glenwood and
Largely Attended.
From Friday's Daily.
The lcke at Glenwood, which
one of the most attractive spots
is
in
j and near the Iowa city, was the
' scene yesterday of the picnic of the
local chapter of the Order of De
; Molay and which was held on the
second anniversary cf the order in
the city and proved a very pleasant
occasion for those attending. The
members of the party enjoyed a fine
picnic supper in the cool of the park
and boating for those that desired
this sport and the sights of the city
also proved a treat to the members
of the party and the chapter mem
bers attended the presentation of
"Putting it Over," which was given
at the opera house there.
The chapter here has made a very
pleasing record since its establish
ment on June 2S, 1921, and has a
membership of 102 of the young men
between 16 and 21 years of age in
the community. Cass chapter was
one of the first in the state to be or
ganized outside of Omaha and Lin
coln and since its establishment has
made a most favorable record for ef
ficiency and high standing in its
membership and the conduct of its
affairs.
Cass chapter was instituted June
28, 1921, in this city by Omaha chap
ter, which is the second one in the
United States in rank of organiza
tion and the local chapter in turn
last year instituted the Otoe at Ne
braska City.
Cass chapter enjoys the distinction
of being the first chapter in the
United States to hold a parent day
banquet, this having been held on
March IS, 1922, and which attracted
a great deal of attention at the time
and was one of the big events that
has been held in the chapter.
A number of entertainments have
been promoted during the two years
that have been vry credible in every
way and reflected the greatest credit
upon the young men of the organiza
tion. Incidentally it may be stated that
the local chapter ranked second in
its work and activities the first year
and this year occupied first place
rlace among the chapters of the
state.
The master councilors who have
guided the chapter in its two years
have been: Harley F. Cecil, Ray
mond C. Cook. Fred J. Warren, Ray
mond H. Rebal and Edgar L. Pet
erson. The chapter is fortunate in its
advisor, Ralph J. Haynie, who has
occupied that position since the or
ganization of the chapter and who
has been untiring in his efforts for
the promotion of the good of the or
der and the welfare of the members.
Other members of the advisory
hoard selected from the members of
Nebraska Chapter No. 3, A. F. & A.
M., who were the sponsors of the De
Molay here, are Dr. R. P. Westover,
Dr. Frank L. Cummins. William A.
Robertson. Carl F. Schmidtmann,
Luke L. Wiles, Glenn Perry, O. C.

MISSOURI RIVER
WASHES OUT 40
FEET OF RIP RAP
Section Men and Extra Gangs of
Burlington Fight All Night to
Retard Inroads of Biver
From Friday's Dally.
The Iowa bank of the Missouri
river, which has been the scene of
much cost and labor in the last few
years, to check the tendency of the
river to carve a new channel for it
self through the fertile fields of Mills
county, is once more causing trou
ble for the Burlington railroad and
the residents of that locality.
Last evening the Missouri made a
further raise that made the stream
a dangerous factor for the safety of
the rip rap and the works that had
been built along the bank to check
the stream and before the Burlington
could get a force of workmen on the
scene, some forty feet of the rip rap
placed there in the last two years,
was washed out and a hurry call was
made for all of the section men in
the employ of the railroad and these
were rushed to the scene of action,
which is almost straight east from
the Burlington passenger station
here.
The force of workmen labored all
night and five car loads of rock and
stone were used in an effort to help
strengthen the rip rap against fur
ther inroads of the river and special
gangs will be used in combatting the
tendency of the Big Muddy to break
through the rip rap and seek a new
channel.
The river has been quite high for
several days, and it is thought tbat
there will be grave danger in the
next week or ten days from the river
as the June rise is now on.

SUNDAY SCHOOL
PICNIC PROVES A
GRAND SUCCESS
Over 200 Present at Annual Outing
of Methodist Sunday School
Held Yesterday Afternoon
From Friday's Dally.
Yesterday afternoon the members
of the Methodist Sunday school to
the number of 200 gathered at the
pleasant farm home of Mr. and Mrs.
Ed Creamer on the Omaha highway
just north of the Nebraska Masonic
Home and enjoyed one of the most
pleasant events of the year in the
social activities of the church. The
grounds committee of which W. F.
Evers was chairman, had arranged
the full details of the picnic grounds
and had some eleven swings In readi
ness when the members of the party
arrived to commence the festivities
of the day at the picnic and the sur
roundings selected by the grounds
committee were certainly ideal for
the purpose.
The day was spent in games of all
kinds from the events of the little
folks to the baseball games in which
the ladies of the Sunday school de
feated the boys and from the reports
received the members of the ladies'
team showed some real class in their
playing both in fielding and at the
bat and overturned the hopes of the
boys for an easy victory. Field sports
and races of all kinds were staged
by the members of the jolly party
and proved a real treattoeveryone.
As the afternoon drew to a close
the baskets of good things to eat
were unpacked and with the large
supply of ice cream and other dain
ties served to complete the day of
real enjoyment which will be long
remembered by the participants in
the event. Mrs J. E. Wiles was the
chairman of the refreshment com
mittee and this organization proved
very successful in Its work.
Plenty of ice water was available
on the grounds during the entire day
for the crowd and the Fafcty of the
cars going and coming from the
TTounds wan looked after by Lyle
Lawton who was stationed at the
Trrwslng over the M. P. tracks to
warn approaching.
GE0BGE WADE HAS CLOSE CALL.
On Tuesday of last week, George
Wade had a close call, or at least he
thinks that it was close enough. He
was scooping coal at the school house
and went up on the steps to take a
rest. Apparently, or at least that is
the only way that he can figure it
out, he fainted and fell to the bot
tom of the stairs. He was uncon
scious for some time and a doctor's
attention was necessary. He was
some time in getting over the effects
nf his experience. Elmwood Loader
