and killed a week ago.
According to the story of Eva Nelome,
m North Seventeenth street, and May me
Broomfleld, 211 North Eleventh street,
who accompanied him to the performance,
the brick was thrown through tha top of
the tent. This statement fs substantiated
by George Klinetop, aged 17 years, ' who
travels with the show and asserts he
chased four small boys away from the
canvas who were hurling missiles at Its
top.
Through Information furnished them by
Theodore Mitchell, aged U years; tiot

years, living at Twenty-fifth and Michi
gan avenue, to tha station. Bell, It Is as
serted, knows who threw the brick. Kline

Judge Redick Holds ,
Appeal Fees Must Be
V Paid in Advance
A decision by District Judge Rodlck.
upholding the clerk of tha district court
in refusing to file appeals from sen
tences of the police judge unless fees are
paid, just rendered. Insured permanence
of a reform which ha eliminated many
of the abuses Involved in the past in the
methods and customs of tha police court.
County Auditor Barnett first raised the
point, maintaining that free appeals to
police court defendants were costing the
puhllo SfiOO a month- Following a ruling
from the county attorney's office, tho
clerk declined to accept the appeals un
less fees were first paid.
A test case wss brought which was de
cided by Judge Redick.
Owing to the fact that police judgea
hava been accustomed to accept appeal
bonds without Investigation, practically
all of which ere worthless, thousands
of persons convicted in police court have
gone unpunished as the result of ap
peals. .Under the new system offenders
will be at least required to pay costs of
ap'neala, which amount to several. dollars
in each case.

Howell Cuts Coal
Bill in Half Since
He Took Over Plant
General Manager Howell of the city
water plant reports that 1,564 tons of
coal were used during the six months
ending June SO, as against 18,736 tons dur
ing the first six of 191Z, which was the
last half-year period under private ownership.
Mr. riowell sdds that 4,000 services have
been added since the city took tha plant
ou July 1, 1912. ' .
Under municipal ownership the Walnut
liUl and Burt street stations have been
clossfl.
Dr. Irving S. Cutter, secretary of the
University of Nebraska Medical college;
Dr. O. T. S;nults. pathologist of that
college, and Job t Latenser, . Jr., archi
tect for the new state clinical hospital
j that la t be built at the school, have
just returned from a tour or a wees,
through' the hospitals lr Chicago. In
dianapolis, Cincinnati and St. Louis to
gather Ideas for the new hospital to be
built nere. v
We found no hospital we can copy,"
sold Secretary Cutter. "Economy of con
struction, economy of maintenance, these
two, together with the best possible care
for state patients and the best facility
for medical teaching, will be the aim of
the regents In the' construction of this
building. We found the rankest extrava
gance in the hospitals everywhere we
went. In' some of them we found marble
floors, marble ' wainscoting, marblo
stairs,, marble balustrades, and marble
this and that, all of which was not1
necessary. The cost of keeping the
marble alone clean and polished in one
of these Institutions we found -to be kmt
much, as we expect to have to spend in
keeping our entire building clean.
In fact we expect now to be able to
build with our $150,000 available- a struc
ture that will do for each patient all that
any of these eastern hospitals have done,
and we expect to 'do it with from ene
third to - one-half the Cost of main
tenance these hospitals hava."
Tha general architectural outline of
the present, laboratory building of tha
College of Medicine at Forty-second and
Harney streets are to be followed. The
Interior details have not yet been worked
out. John Latenser, .who accompanied
the party visiting the hospitals, has
made many sketches, and the plans are
expected to be finally approved now be
fore long.
Jn thlcago the party visited the new
Cook County hospital, tha Sarah Mortis,
the Michael Reese-and St. Luke's. In
Indianapolis they visited the Robert W.
Long, which is the state1 hospital in
connection with the University of Indi
ana.) and the' Indianapolis City hospital.
At Cincinnati they visited the Cincinnati
General hospital, for which the city
bonded Itself in the sum of $4,600,000.
This hospital has too beds ' They visited
also another hospital Just now under
construction there. In St. Louis they

is the teaching hospital for Washington
university.

Tire Buyers'
The Way to the Light
We are fighting jour battles as well
as ours when we advertise these facts.
Tires are not alike. There are dozens of
standards. The fierce competition forces many
a compromise.
Two tires may seem almost identical. Yet
one may twice outlast the other, and reduce
troubles 50 per cent.
Yet our late price reduction saves our users
about five million dollars this year. And that
was our third reduction in two years, totaling
45 per cent
While we add costly betterments we are
reducing your cost. This by new efficiency
and multiplied output We are giving a value
in Goodyear tires, with which no rival can
compete. ;
How to Judge
Judge tires by' the 'maker, . Goodyear
standards appeal to every man.
Judge them by known features. Each ex
elusive Goodyear feature combats a major
trouble. .
i
But judge, above all, by records. ' Not by
incidents, not by exceptions. Good luck or
mishap affects individual tires. Note that
Goodyear tires, after 16 years, far outsell any
other. Note how they have held this top
place for years. That gives you the broad
view verdict. .
By every measure you can use, Goodyear ,
tires are best. Come join their countless
friends. Any dealer will supply you.
