When we say "quality" in connection with.
"LA CAMILLE" corsets, combination gar

fullest and widest sense.
Every woman who realizes the value of her
good health, as well as physical beauty, will
be a willing "LA CAMILLE" enthusiast.

From Friday's Daily
This morning George J. Thomas,
well known Lincoln resident who
has been for a number of years with
the First Trust Co., of that city,
was here interviewing the voters in
the interest of his candidacy for the
republican nomination for congress
in the first district. Mr. Thomas in
addition to his banking connections
is also the owner and operator of
several farms in this portion of the
state and states that he feels a keen

The vicinity of Elmwood, usually
a place of peace and quietude was
rent on Wednesday with si very live
ly battle staged by two of the rcsi-,
dent of the community and in which
fists, guns and wrenches Hew over
teh landscape for a few moments
following a quarrel between the
parties.
The trouble seems to have arisen
over an argument over a hog that
had been foraging in a field belong-;
ing to James Kelly and which the
owner of the field proceeded to take
up with the owner of the hogh '
Adolph Fleisehmann. j
It is alleged that when Kelly
found the hogh in his field he noti-!
fied Flieschmann over the telephone1
of the fact that the porker was root-j
ing around in the field and it is :
claimed in press dispatches that
Fleichmann used abusive language '
over the telephone to members of
the Kelly household. When Fliesch- 1
mann arrived at the Kelly home to
look after the hog more words were
paseds between the two men and
the war was on.
It is claimed that Kelly made use
of the butt-end of the gun that he
held in his hand, then changed to
a monkey wrench that played a live-!
ly tatto on the person of Fliesch-.
mann who was getting into action ,
a la Dempsey with his fists as the ,
