Night.
Swift "promotion" was given three
young soldiers who were at the week
ly dance of the Friendship club Thurs
day at Metropolitan hall. An am
bitious matron, who was evidently ig
norant of the meaning of chevrons
and shoulder straps, introduced the
three soldiers. She introduced a pri-
Lvate as "Sergeant Jones." The next,
whose sleeve bore the insignia of a
corporal in the signal corps, she in
troduced as "Lieutenant Smith" and
the third, who was a sergeant in the
signal corps, she "promoted" to
"Major Brown."
" "They are my guests and are just

plainly embarrassed by the "promo
tions given them by the benevolent
woman.
It was the first dance of the

merly the "Lonesome club" and was
organized last winter. The summer

WANT SALESMEN TO
0BTAIHRECRU1TS
Big: Drive Will Be Made by
Omaha Office for Recruits in
Army; Fourth Draft Men
Leave Friday.
Here's a chance for two real sales
men to do their bit help their coun
try and incidental!) earn a good sal
ary. Major Frith, in charge of re
cruiting for the army in Nebraska and
western Iowa, has sent out a call for
two A-l salesmen to help bring in
volunteers for the army. He wishes
all interested In this plan to call or
write to him. Address army building,
Omaha, Neb. He will investigate
these men's records just as any whole
sate merchant would and from those
who seem capable of delivering ' the
goods he will select two salesmen,
pay them $100 a month, with clothing
and medical attendance free. These
two men will bu taken at the recruit
ing office immediately.
Since the beginning of the war 623
recruits have been secured for the
United States army by the postmas
ters in the Omaha district This rec
ord is surpassed by only four districts
in the United States, making the post
masters of Nebraska and western
Iowa, who om the Omaha district,
fifth in the country in recruiting. The
four districts which surpassed the
Omaha one are those with headquar
ters at Atlanta, Ga.; Harrisburg, Pa.;
Port Wayne, Ind., and Chicago, IlC
Major Frith is anxious that the Oma
ha district shall stand number onevin
the next report! and to this end is
sending out personal appeals to hun
dreds of postmasters in his district
Already replies are pouring in to the
army headquarters in Omaha from
postmasters who pledge their help.
The Fourth district local exemption
board will send a number of men to
Camp Funston Friday. These men
are anxious to get into the harness at
once. They are in the last group of
the quota and thus need not go at
once, but they appealed to their local
board to be sent in advance. The
board has decided to favor their
wishes and will also send any other
volunteers who wish to join these pa
triotic young men
John Kunc of the Fourth Omaha
district appeared before his local
board today, driven there by a trou
bled conscience. Kuno registered, but
failed to appear for examination
when called. This had been preying;
on his mind for some weeks and to
day he gave himself up voluntarily,
asking to be sent to training camp at
once. The board is inclined to be
lenient in such cases and, Kunc will
be allowed to go to Camp Funston
instead of to a military prison, as
might be the case. He is a natural
ixed Bohemian and has had three
years of military service in the Bo
hemian army, so he will be of good
service to the national army. He is
employed by the Gordon-Lawless
company of Omaha.
Two deserters from the Fourth dis
trict in Omaha are now being sought
by. sheriffs in northern states. They
registered, appeared for examination,
but failed to appear for entrapment,
although notified by the local board.
"They are real deserters," said Rich
ard Brady, secretary for the Fourth
district board. "That is, they have de-
?erted from the United States army,
or all those to whom true pink cards
notifying of the entrapment date are
sent are considered actually in the
government service. This is the first
case in Nebraska where men have
failed to appear for entrainment As
they were considered in the govern
ment service since the day before the
entrainment, their case lies with the
War department, not with us. No
matter what their claims for exemp
tion, only the secretary of war or the
provost marshal general can let them '
off."
Admitted He Did Not
Know All About Electricity
Town Marsha! Butcher of Valley,
Neb., is a town marshal, a farmer and
a seed corn raiser. But Assistant
United States Attorney Saxtoa
demonstrated that he isn t an elec
trician. The marshal was testifying in fed
eral court at the trial of Morris
Lonergan for breaking into a box car
at Valley. An incandescent light was
one of the trial exhibits. Mr. Butcher
declared it was a "100-kilowatt light"
"You're sure, it's a 100 kilowatts?"
asked Mr. Saxton.
"Certainly," said Mr. Butcher,
"Why, I've got a 100-kilowatt light
in my front room at home."
"And are you able to stand the
glare of such a light?" inquired the
federal attorney.
"Why, sure," said the town mar
shal. Later Mr. Butchel admitted that
the light L question was of 100 watt
power instead of 100 kilowatt A
kilowatt is equal to 1,000 watts. So
there is considerable difference be
tween a light of 100 watts and of 100
kilowatts.

Price of Hogs Drops More
Than a Dollar in Two Days
The orice of hoes crooned over a
dollar in two days. Hogs Friday sold'
on the Omaha market for more than
a dollar lower than they did two days
ago.
Thursday they dropped from a quar
ter to 45 cents per hundred, and Fri
day they followed up by dropping 75
cents.
The sharb drop m the provisions
market a few days ago is believed to
be the cause, as the packers and com
mission men watch the provisions
market closely as an index to what
prices of live stock should be.
The bulk of the hogs sold for from
$17.50 to $17.80 today.
