Butinett houses in the neighbor

Zorroja, idling in hi doorway,

Inaid Pocket Turned Out
The inside pocket of the dead
man'a coat was found to be turned
wrongtide out, leading police to be
lieve that there might have been a
wallet of money carried there aud
removed by the slayer. Thi theory
it strengthened by the assertions of
Julius Alexander, a bellboy at the
Carleton hotel, where the man regis
tered 15 days ago, giving Atlantic,
la., as his address, and using the
name of Harvey. Alexander claims
that the man hinted at large sums
of money carried on his person.
Police are of the opinion that the
man had visited one of the home dis
tilleries they claim are constantly
springing tip on the South Side,
flashed a role of bills and was fol
lowed by the robber-slayer as he
left.
Second Shooting in Half-Year.
The shooting is the second
one to occur in the packing house
district in the last half-year. A man
who has not yet been identified by
Omaha police, was shot to death
from behind in front of a pool hajl
directly opposite the Armour plant
between Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth
streets on Q. The shoot
ing took place last December just
after the packer strike began. It
was thought in some quarters that
the victim was a labor spy. No trace
was ever found of the slayer.

Frank Myers, Manager Myera
Brokerage Company: Farmers are
just getting out from under the ef
fects of the period of inflation. Crops
are ahead of the season, although
needing rain in some sections. Di
versified farming has made failure a
thing of the past in northeast Ne

herds of cattle and hogs, numerous
fields of alfalfa and many cans of
cream on station platforms show that
the farmers have faith m their fu

H. O. Morohy. Secretary. E. E.
Bruce ft Co: Increasing recognition
of Omaha as a jobbing center was
manifest over the entire journey. Civ

optimism, and the idea prevails that
the future is decidely encouraging.
G. E. Jennings, Vice President;

Without exceotion all our dealers
report business improving. With the
rain which came at a very opportune
time prospects for a continued in

believe there will be somewhat of
a scramble for merchandise of all

MUSIC
After an absence of several season
Amelita Galli-Curci made her reap
pearance in Omaha at the Audi
torium, and right royal wa tne
welcome extended to her by the
thousands from within and without
the city who had assembled to savour
the subtleties of her rare Italian song.
Nor did the little orima donna dis
appoint, as those same thousands
will abundantly testify. Supported by
ber husband. Homer Samuels, at the
piano, and Manuel Berangeur. flutist,
she held her hearers in willing subju
gation from thrill of the first number
until the last seductive echoes had
died away.
An old French chanson from the
XVth century opened the festivities
and proved a point of departure for
the pouring forth of a stream of tone
not less lovely than the colors of the
madame's iridescent sown, nor paling
in brilliance beside the diamonds that
sparkled on her petite person.
t olio wing came an Italian num
ber of ancient vintage, and here
upon an aria from Bizet's neglected
opera, "The Pearl Fishers," showing
the artist s voice in rich and caress
ing beauty and her art of lyric song
at its fullest estate. uaia-Uurcts
tones are produced with perfect ease,
and float lightly into space or are
sustained at will by means of a splen
didly controlled breathing mechan
ism. "The Wren." by Bishop, gave a
shining example of the singer's florid
manner, on which her reputation
largely rests, a style more perfectly
illustrated later in the evening by
the Sempre libera ana from
Verdi's "Traviata," and the "Shadow
Song from Dinorah. ' Here the so
prano revelled in airy staccati jew
elled trills and altitudinous passage
work, fairly justifying her elevated
position in the present vocal world.
"Crepuscule," by Massenet, sung
in the original French, and Valverde's
"Clavelitos," in Spanish, gave added
charm to the evening, and the "Song
of India," by Rimsky-Korsakoff,
with its descending chromatic inter
vals, accurately defined, exercised a
seductive sway. "Pierrot," a charm
ing song by Mr. Samuels, was re
peated on demand. Russel's "Vale"
and "The Little Damozcl," by No
vello completed the printed list, to
which the artist added as encores two
songs by Grieg, "Lindy Lou," by
Strickland, "Old Folks at Home,"
"Love's Old Sweet Song" and others
too numerous to mention.
Mr. Berenguer, besides furnishing
some ornithic embellishments for
Bishop's "Wren," and rendering in
valuable aid in chasing Dinorah's
elusive shadow, played two solo num
bers for flute: a "Romance" of pro
nounced charm by Gaubert and a
well-written number by Mr. Sam
uels. The piano accompaniments
by the last named were done with his.
accustomed elegance and distinction.
Lucius Pryor officiated as local
manager. J. P. D.
Common Sense
Are You Doing Your Best?
What is your idea about giving an

If you work for a small firm
where it is known to a minute just
whether you arc on the job or not
and what doing, you have to do
about right, if you are with any kind

To be successful, a man or a cor

or some other concern discovers a
loop hole to get under and put him

Even with the best sort of man
agement, in these times, some of the
most stable and progressive estab

But what of the man who works
on city or government works and
cheats the civic or federal corpora
tion, just because it is the govern
ment? If you are that sort, you are in
herently dishonest.
There are a whole lot of honest
men who hold government positions.
But there are a whole lot more
who try for them because they think
they can "get away with it," and do
as little as possible for the money.
Then there is the naturally idle

Cochet Already Chosen.
A sport-loving senator met Ed
ouard Herriott, deputy mayor of
Lyons, in the lobby of the chamber
of deputies, the other day, slapped
him on the houlder, saying: "Con
gratulations on the splendid victory
at Brunei of your constituent,
young Cochet."
"Who it young Cochet," asked M.
Herriott.
"International hard court tennia
champion. He hails from Lyons,
your own town," replied the senator,
registering surprise.
"Never heard of him," said Herri
ott. "My dear sir, he is much more
widely known than you are," snapped
the senator.
Cochet has been definitely chosen
as the first member of the French
team which will compete for the Da
vis cup, emblem of the world's su
premacy at lawn tennis. The other
three players will be chosen from
among Gobert, Borotraya, Brugnon,
Behont and Samazeuilh.
To Play Denmark.
France plays Denmark at Copen
hagen next month in the second
round which was reached through
the default of Canada. The French
men are confident of a victory over
the Danes, Tegner and Olsen, the
backbone of the Danish team, hav
ing been beaten regularly by both
Cochet and Borotraya. France looks
to Australia to reach the semifinals
and the French Tennis federation
will make representations to the
Australian team, urging that the
semifinals be played in America.
Cochet s service is his only ap
parent weakness. It lacks speed and
is easily returned, placing the young
ster on the defensive at tne start ot
nlav for each point. The young
star is practicing with Gobert, who
is known for his severe service.
Gobert is taking great and unselfish
interest in the youngster who re
placed him as number one in the
ranking in France.
Long Skirts Returning. '
Fashion's pacesetters are winning
in their fight to bring skirts some
where near their old-time length.
Stvles for late soring and early sum
mer show that skirts will be half
way below the knee. French wom
en also are gradually discarding
blacks, as is indicated by the brilli
ant dors creeping into the crowds
at the races and other events ot a
popular nature, where both dresses
and stockings run into every color
cf the rainbow. Parasols of more
than one color are being carried. -There
is a special tendency to re
turn to colors in the lines made up
for middle-aged women.
The dresses are cut long and on
straight lines. There are no waist
bands and no low necks, the latter
spaces being taken up by real or
artificial pearls, which are preferred
in blister or baroque shapes. The
sleeves show long slits similar to
those worn in the days of Henry II.
Hair Dyes Popular.
Hair dves are increasingly popu
lar with middle-aged women, the old
black dyes being replaced by soft
blondes and browns of girlhood. ,
Shoes remain black, generally pat
ent leather, with Louis IV buckles,
and also a suggestion of blue or tan
color on the sides.
Monkey fur trimming continues
popular.
Heckled Over Bonds.
The French government is being
heckled because it cannot tell within
15 or 20 billions of francs, just how
much money it has borrowed on the
national defense bonds. This short
term paper, originated by Rebot,
wartime finance minister, is credited
with having saved France finan
cially. The people took up the bonds so
freely that the treasury was greatly
relieved. They continued to take up
the paper after the war and even
since the rate of interest has been
reduced one-half of 1 per cent. The
bonds now yield 4zi, 4 and 3 per
cent, respectively, for the yearly,
half yearly and quarterly bonds.
The amount in circulation has been
estimated at from $65,000,000,000 to
$80,000,000,000 and the treasury is
unable to tell which figure is more
nearly correct because the bonds are
sold at every postoffice, tax collect
ing bureau and notary's office in the
country. The amounts remaining
unreported to the treasury at any
given time might, make up the dif
ference between- the two figures
quoted.
