This la what the overheard an 8-

girl of the playground:
T will tie you to that tree! I

"Why. IJonel, what do yott mean by
such conversation? Is that the way to

Well, she twisted my wrist ' Just to
show how strong she was, the youngster
replied.
The facts are that the femlnlnlst move

boasting of hts athletlo prowes He
declared he could chin himself many
times without, half trying, run like a
March hare and do all sorts of Tltanlo

Whereupon the tiny maiden twisted his
wrlnts until he nearly cried for his
mamma.
The threat . of tying the fair maiden
to a tree and then dancing around the
tree was suggested by . the story Lionel
had read. He told Miss Scott he was
only fooling and thought he would scare
the girl.
Lionel has since made amends by offer

Railroad Men Have
Gay Time at Picnio
Reports of the passenger men's plcnlo

Interesting episodes miiat have been In
eluded In ' the program. For Instance,
Rutherford,, of the Rock' Island, asked
to be allowed to wear a bathing suit to
bowl In, but the authorities refused him
permission. Then Wltlebrands of the

works at t o'clock at night. Mr. and Mr
Dan E. Murphy, Kit California street,
were thrown Into Carter lake when their
machine struck a rut In the road and
tipped over on top of them In several
feet of water. The extent of Murphys
Injuries cannot be ascertained, as an
effort has been made to -hush up the
affair.
Mr Murphy and her husband fortu
nately were not pinioned by the car. The
former came to the surface first and
called for help, and with the aid of her
brother, whom they had been visiting and
near whose home the aocldent occurred,
the couple were brought to dry ground
and an ambulance called.
In the morning the car was extricated
from the depths of the lake and the
rescuers seeing that nought but the
fender' appeared to be harmed, cranked
the engine and to their own astonish
ment were able to drive from the spot
as if nothing had happened. Mr. Murphy
has been employed as traveling agent
for the John Deere Plow company. Mr
Murphy's brother, who lives lust north
of the Carter White Lead works, and
luckily was near the spot, unaided res

Ix)w rates for Electric Power always act as a

industrial progress, invariably comes prosperity

The New Reduced Rates
for Electric Power
now in effect are bound to give Greater Omaha'
greatness a splendid impetus from this standpoint of
industrial development. Not only have we reducod
the rates for power used by our customers but wa
have so improved our facilities and so broadened tho
scope of our service that every power-using enter
prise in the city will find it a distinct economical
advantage to use this better, cheaper Electric Power,
Electric light Rates Have
. Been Considerably Cut
Electricity for lighting nor costs less than ever
before. Instead of starting at 11 0 per kilowatt hour
as before, the new low rates start at 8c net per kilo
watt hcur. And, instead of basing the ohtirges on a
total connected load during thq month, the new low
rates are based on the total consumption of electric
ity regardless of connected load.
The new reduced rates make electricity bo
cheap that every home, store and office in
Omaha can now easily afford to install Elec
