PROTECT YOURSELVES

Inspector of Weights and Measures
Warns Public Against Short .Meas
ures—New City Ordinances Re
quire Sale by Weight anil Not By
Basket.
To the coal consumers of the city
of Omaha, especially those who buy
coal in small quantities: I desire to
call your attention to the fact that the
law compels coal dealers and peddlers
to sell their commodities by weight
and not by the basket or measure, as
heretofore. Eighty (80) pounds of coal
is one (1 > bushel; sixty (60) pounds
of potatoes, one (1) bushel. A'ou can
buy any fraction of a bushel of either
commodity, but it must he by weight,
and not by basket, as they may not
hold the required number of pounds.
Von can protect yourselves by watch
ing (his matter and greatly assist this
office by reporting any refusal to sell
by weight.
Respectfully yours,
J MO. W. CONG, Inspector.

FOUND GUILTY
OF MANSLAUGHTER
Charles Joiner, who deliberately
shot down in cold blood John Walker
on North Twenty-fourth street last
August, was found guilty of man
slaughter in Judge Redick’s court last
week. Both men were colored. How
in the face of the fact that Joiner
wilfully hunted for Walker and find
ing him shot him on sight a plea of
manslaughter should be allowed
passes the understanding of The Mon
itor.
SENTENCED FOR
DOPE PEDDLING
Jack Brown was sentenced to six
months in the county jail, sentence t.
date from August 27, the date of his
arrest; and Sid Allen to a year and :t.
day in the penitentiary at Leaven
worth, in the federal court Saturday,
for peddling dope. This was Brown's
!first offense and Allen’s third.

COLUMBIA HALL BEAUTIFUL
AND WELL EQUIPPED
Do you know that the colored peo
ple of this city have as commodious,
well-equipped and beautiful modern
hall as heart could desire for dances,
entertainments and social gatherings ?
Well, we have. It is the Columbia
hall on Lake street near Twenty- j
fourth. It is a beautiful building. A
wide entrance to the large downstairs
hall, with a seating capacity of 500,
and a dancing floor unsurpassed by
any in the city, is flanked on either
side by two store buildings in one of
which refreshments and confections
are sold and in the other is the up-to- j
date photograph studio of Mr. Wil- j
liams. On the top floor are two small
halls, now occupied by the War Camp
Community Service. Columbia ha'l !
was built by a company of which Mr.
Ben Handler is president, who saw the
need of just such a place for our peo- j
pie. Mr. J. W. Robertson, a courte- j
ous, deserving and wide-awake young
business man of our race has leased
Columbia hall. It should be used t">
the limit by our people.
