Automobile Motes.
The automobile season appears to have
opened up in earnest, one concern report
ing ten sales for the I!i5 models up to
date. Representatives of factories who
got an early start on the new models now
have their floors filled for Immediate de
livery and with weather that Is at all re
spectable the next thirty days ought to
snow a very flourishing business, since
Purchasers will profit by the experience
hey had last season In not being able to
secure machines until several weeks after
the order was placed, and make early pur
chases this season. One dealer estimates
that there will be over 100 machines sold
In Omaha alone, and calculates that agen
cies generally will do double the business
In 11105 that they did In 11)04.
Clinton H. Brlggs placed his order for a
touring car last week. This Is somewhat
of a surprise to Mr. Brlggs' friends, since
he has been prominently identified with the
Driving Park association In the past and
has always shown a weakness for fine
horses.
C B. Hortnn, superintendent of the West
ern Union, purchased a five-passenger auto
mobile Inst week.
A. U. Dann, president of the Central Na
tional bank of Kearney, had shipped to him

officers, with Major Levi P. Hunt, Thir
teenth cavalry, as president, and Captain
F. B. Armstrong, Ninth cavalry, as Judge
advocate. Lieutenant Early is charged with
conduct to the prejudice of good order and
military discipline In violation of the sixty
second article of war. He was In charge of
the post exchange from November 12, 190ft,

alleged that the sum of $1,262.82 of the funds

sible, was embersled, lost or misappropri
ated, and the charges were preferred as the

of officers. It Is well known throughonut
