was In the city yesterday and today
looking after the estate of his father,
who died at Elmwood several months
since. While here, in company with
Hon. William DelesDenier, the Elm
wood attorney, he paid his respects
to the Journal. Mr. White is the
Democratic candidate for commis
sioner in Otoe county, and if the peo
ple appreciate him as he should be,
they will elect him. He Is not only
well fitted for the place, but he is
one of those gentlemen that will look
after the Interests of the people of
his county. Jim White is a nobleman
of the first-class order, and we hope
he will be elected by a good big ma
Jority.

At the Tent.
The Christian church revival "ser
vice conducted at the tent was a live

two very strong appeals by Rev,
Wllhite the evangllist. The services
throughout the day were attended by
large audience and probably 200

the evening service. There wefe
eight candidates for baptism in the
afternoon, the ordinance was admis
lstered at the river east of this city,
Quite a. crowd assembled at the bank
at Swallow Hill as the announcement
at the morning service was for that
point, but those wishing to accompany
the party were invited to assemble
at the tent about 3 o'clock. When
the party assembled in the afternoon
the place was changed for convience
not thinking that a part of the con
gregation would go to the river with
out first meeting at the tent.

Temptation to Doubt." After the

BRIDGES
BURNED
Cn the McCook Division of the Bur
lington, Delaying Trains.
Two bridge tires in a day delayed
train service on the McCook dlvosion
the Burlington, and kept the
ridge builders and repair gangs of
that section of the system busy.
Farther, these fires delayed several
trains and caused a detour that added
much to the mileage of limited No. 6.
The first was an eighty-foot span
between Poe and Trenton, west of
McCook, which caught fire at 3:30
l
p. m. Sunday and was not repaired continued to reside in the same lo
until 1:30 a. m. Monday. No. 10, due cality near the place of his wife's
here at an early hour yesterday morn-
Ing, was caught behind the burned
bridge and delayed so that it arrived
here at noon. No. 6, the limited, far
behlnd No. 10, was detoured via
Brush and Alliance, and brought Into
Lincoln ten minutes ahead of No. 10,
at 11:05 a. m. At iLncoln, while
both trains were In the yards, one
passenger got off of No. 10 and board-
ed No. 6, hoping to make better time
to Chicago. No. 6 runs via Omaha
and No. 10 via Louisville to Pacific
Junction, so that No. 10 was forty-
flve minutes ahead of No. 6 out of the
Junction. No. 14, the St. Joe train
from Denver, was detoured via Ster-
ling and Holdrege. Nos. 3 and 15
were delayed east of the burned
bridge two hours.
The second fire was between San-
born and Halgler, near Sanborn. The
fire started at 10 a. m. yesterday and
the line was again cribbed up and Mrs. Moore early became a Chris
open for travel at 1:30 p. m. No. 9 tian and Identified herself with that
was delayed two hours and forty mln-
utes and No. 13 two hours.
A continued drouth In the part of
the country where these bridges were
burned Is said to have made these
and other fires possible. The bridges
were wooden structures, but were
covered with sheet Iron, and it Is not
known how the fires started.
A few years ago bridge and depot
fires were frequent on what Bur-
lington men designate the "lignite
ends," that is the divisions west of
the Lincoln division, where lignite
fuel Is used on the engines. In re-
cent years, however, the depots have
been roofed with metal shingles and
the bridges have been given sheet
Iron coverings. These have prevent-
ed fire losses. I
It is possible the two bridge fires
reported started from . prairie fires
that got over on the' right of way.
Missouri Pacific trains were delay-
ed Saturday by a burned bridge near
Unlon. Repairs were quickly made.

WhaVs Vp, Now?
The following appears on record in
the commissioners' proceedings of
thia week: "A resolution was this
day received requesting the sheriff to
file his quarterly reports according
to law. and the board Instructed him
how? Is it possible that our sheriff
has not done what the law specifically
demands that he should do? Other
officials have been making their re
Ularl quarterly reports, and why
have the commissioners not com
pelled the sheriff to do the same? If
there is anything wrong the taxpay

It's sure to be so. Have you
ever known it to be otherwise?
Quality is the first consideration
and Quality as we use it does
not apply simply to good cloth,
but takes in all the points that
make a suit desirable. It meaus
that the cloth is not made up
to the suit just as it comes
the loom but it is twice shrunk and
sponged once by steam and
cold water; that each suit is
pair of shears in the hands of
ter, not by an electric machine
suits at a time more or less imperfectly. Quality in
clothing means that each suit
who are paid by the hour and not cheap contract work.
It means that the inside framework of the coat is made as
good as the $60 custom tailor makes it. We have an inside
model here to show you how our quality line is made. With
out this important foundation your suit will not hold its
shape. You will not find it in the suits quot d to you at the
cheaper clothiers. We don't claim to sell cheap clothes.
Our clothes are good clothes, Quality clothes, but they are the
most economical after all. When we ask you $20 to $35 for
our Quality line we are giving you tht best goods you can buy
from the cream of the best makes in this country. You
certainly cannot find such a line in this town and you will
pay more for such quality in the city. Come in and select
your pattern while the picking is good. We will hang it
away for you if you wish. v

SORY LAW
The Board of Education and Superin
tendent Talk to Parents.
We wish to call the attention of
the parents and business men of the
city to the compulsory attendance
and child labor laws. The compul
sory attendance law requires that all
children between the ages of 7 and
14 years roust attend school the en
tire time that school is ln session.
Children between the ages of 14 and
16, who has not completed the eighth
grade, are also required to attend
school the entire time it is in session.
Any parent who neglects or refuses
to comply with this law is subject to
a fine of not less than $5 nor more
than $25 for each offense.
The child labor law leaves any
person liable who employs any child
under 14 during the time school Is in.
session, and also leaves them liable
If they employ any child between the
ages of 14 and 16 who has not com
pleted the eighth grade and who does
not have a certificate Issued by the
city superintendent of schools.
The penalty for the violation of
this act Is Inflicted upon both parent
and employer. Whoever employs a
child under 16 and whoever having
under his control a child under such
age, and permtis a child to be em
ployed In violation of this act, shall
ror eacn oirense he fined not more
than $50, and whoever continues to
employ any child after being notified
shall for every day thereafter that
such employment continues, be fined
not less than $5 nor more than $20
per day.
The foregoing Is a brief summary
of the two laws, both of which are
being violated ln this city. Wewlsh
to urge upon parents and employers
the necessity of complying with this
law at once. A truant officer has been
employed by the board of education,
and Is now securing the names of
children who are out of school, both
employed and unemployed. Begin'
nlng Monday, October 11, every child
round living In violation of these
acts will be aken into custody by the
truant officer and notice served upon
parent and employer. All vlolatlors
of these acts are to bo taken before
the pcMce Judge for a hearing. This
notice will be given publicity that all
may have an opportunity to meet its
requirements. The age of every
child of school age is on file ln the
office of the city superintendent, who
will be glad to co-operate with busl
nesa men and other employers. Chil
urea may auena eitner public or
parochial schools. We are held re
sponsible for the proper enforce'
ment of these laws, and we hope to
have the co-operation of every law
abiding citizen In their enforcement
