n New Styles!
u
The following is an extract from one of the leading style journals:
"Fashions for Spring, while not indicative of any radical change, are
extraordinarily interesting. The prevailing style features of the winter
modes have been developed and improved rather than any attempt having
been made to introduce changes of an unusual character.
"Taffeta, in both plain and fancy effects, is the most popular material
for Spring. It is shown in stripes, plaids and in pompadour effects. The
combining of silks with sheer materials is an important factor in dress
fashions for immediate and future wear."
For Spring Dresses and Costumes,
our showing of Taffetas in plaids, stripes and plain colors, is all you could wish
for in making a selection. These are all yard wide and are of the soft Chiffon
finish. Chiffons and Georgette Crepes to match Taffetas and Silk Poplins, for
the making of sleeves, vest effects and over-drapes.
The McCALL FASHIONS are the last word in good styles. The new
Spring Quarterly, (just out) is simply filled from cover to cover with chic styles
for every one.

A DRAW IN THE
EURQP1AN WAR
Germany Can Neither Yin Nor Be
Crushed, the Hollanders
Believe.
London, Ffcb. 20. Most Hollanders
now believe the war will end in a
draw. This information is gleaned
following recent conversations with
Dutch leaders at The Hague and in
Rotterdam and from well informed
Hollanders here.
The Dutch believe Germany has ac
complished about all she is going to
accomplish in the war. Being in
close touch with Germany, they realize
the Germans are suffering severely.
Nevertheless, the Dutch do not be
lieve that Germany can be crushed.
They think i-he can hold out indefinite
ly, no matter how terribly she may
suffer, or how great permanent dam
age may be wrought to her people by
continuing the war.
The Hollanders believe both sides
will find a deadlock has been reached
end will be ready for peace about the
end of the present year.
Dutch leaders will be satisfied with
this solution. They believe a decided
victory for one side or the other would
le detrimental to Holland's interests.
They believe the victor would insist
on complete control of the River
Scheldt, paring off a slice of Dutch ter
l itory.

Time for an Answer to Protest on

The masquerade given Saturday
evening at the T. J. Sokol hall by the
young ladies turning class was a most
successful affair in every way, and
a very large crowd was present to
take part in the pleasuers of the even
ing. The evening was one of the
rarest pleasure, without anything to
mar the enjoyment of the dancers as
they moved to and fro to the music
furnished by the Holly orchestra. The
dance, which was conducted by the
young ladies, was throughout very
pleasing, as the attendance shows, and
it was with regret that the strains of
the home waltz was heard by the mem
bers of the party as the signal for
the home-going hour. It was one of
the most largely attended dances that
has been given for some time at this
hall.

Washington, Feb. 20. Unless Great
Eritain replies to the American pro
test against interference with mails
Lansing will address to the foreign of
fice a supplementary note reminding
England that an answer seems due.
It was announced yesterday the
state department feels there has been
ample time for London to frame a re
ply, despite the admitted necessity for
a conference between England and her
allies.
It has been reported at various
times that England has been having
some difficulty in obtaining whole
hearted approval of her action by
France and Russia because it is be
lieved at Petrograd and Paris that
to express such approval would set
a precedent that might bind those
countries in the event they are in the
future enemies of Great Britain.
The American protest was present
ed more than a month ago.
Councellor Barclay of the British
embassy yesterday afternoon laid be
fore Councellor Polk of the department
a number of complaints contained in
British consular reports regarding the
seizures of British property in Mexico.
Birth of a Fine Daughter.
This morning Frank Kalasek was
just about the happiest man in the
community as the result of a visit of
the stork at his home, when a fine lit
tle daughter was left to brighten the
Kalasek home. The mother and little
daughter are doing nicely and the
proud father will be restored to nor
mal condition in a few days. As Frank
says he now has three daughters and
two sons and three queens and a pair
of jacks are mighty hard to beat, and
the little daughter is the object of a
great deal of admiration from the
brothers and sisters.
Called on Sad Mission.
At an early hour this morning a
long distance telephone call was re
ceived by R. L. Ponsler, of the Ne
braska Lighting company, conveying
the sad news of the death in Kansas
City last night of Mrs. A. E. Geyer,
mother of Mrs. Ponsler. Mr. and Mrs.
Ponsler departed this morning for
Kansas City to be present at the
funeral.
For a Bilious Attack.
When you have a severe headache,
accompanied by a coated tongue,
olathing of food, constipation, torpid
liver, vomiting of partly digested food
and then bile, you may know that you
have a severe bilious attack. While you
may be quite sick there is much con
solation in knowing that relief may be
had by taking three of Chamberlain's
Tablets. They are prompt and ef
fectual. Obtainable everywhere.
ENGLISH
FROM
DEATH OF JUDGE
J. P.
EFFECTS DF GRIPPE
One of the Best Known and Ablest
Attorneys in the Metropolis
Judge of District Court.
Omaha, Feb. 21. James P. English,
judge of the district court, died of
grippe and its resultant complications
at the family home, 5S5 South Twenty-
f'.rst street, at 11:30 Sunday night, af
ter an illness covering a period of
about six weeks.
Judge English presided at the Haus
er trial recently and suffered with an
attack of the grippe during the hear
ing. Following the hearing he became
worse, complications resulting and he
was confined to his bed. He was un
able to leave his home since.
His condition became suddenly
worse Saturday, but yesterday physi
cians thought him improved. A relapse
last night resulted in a hasty call for
Dr. H. A. Waggener, who declared
that death was near. He expired
shortly afterward.
Judge English was born in Kenosha,
Wis., and after finishing his common
school education read law in a law
office at Racine. Wis. From there he
came to Omaha. That was in 1SS0.
For several years he was in the office
of James M. Woolworth, one of
Omaha's pioneer lawyers and citizens,
and later became a member in the
firm of Hall, McCulloch & English.
He was county attorney of Douglas
county for eight years and made an
enviable record. He was first elected
county attorney in l'.K)3, and served
two years, when he was succeeded by
Judge Slabaugh. In li07 he was again
elected to the office and served con
tinuously for six years, retiring to
private practice upon the election of
George A. Magney, for several years
his chief deputy.
When Judge Howard Kennedy re
signed hi.; seat on the district court
bench to become a member of the
state board of control, Governor More
head apopinted Mr. English his suc
cessor, serving out the term and be
ing re-elected to the office by the peo
ple. Judge English is survived by a
widow and eleven children. The chil
dren are Margaret, Mary, Catherine,
Anna, Ruth, Florence, Frank, Robert
and James living at home; John En
glish of Kansas City, and Mrs. Leo
Wickham of Council Bluffs. No ar
rangements have been made for the
funeral as yet.
Sunday Services Well Attended.
The Sunday services at the Chris
tian church yesterday were all largely
attended and. a most interesting and
impressive series of sermons given by
the pastor, Rev. C. E. PerLee, who at
the morning sermon preached from
the subject of the "Lord's Prayer," and
in the evening on "Opening of the
Seven Seals." There was on baptism
into the church during the day.
Postoffice Closed Tomorrow.
Tomorrow being Washington's
birthday the posofilce will be closed
all day, with the exception of the gen
eral delivery window, which will be
open from 11 to 12 o'clock. The day
is a legal holiday in this state and
the banks, as well as the offices in the
court house, will observe the day. The
Burlington shops, in most of the de
partments, will also be closed, but the
freight car repair department will be
run as usual, owing to the large num
ber of heavy orders in that department.

George W. Berge, of Lincoln,
democratic candidate for governor,
sent the following letter to Mayor C.
W. Bryan Saturday in reply to Mr.
Bryan's statement:
"Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 19, 1910.
Mayor C. W. Bryan, City. Dear Mr.
Bryan: In last evening's papers you
say that before you announced your
candidacy for governor you urged vari
ous prominent democrats in the state
to become candidates for governor,
among them such well known demo
crats as Judge Edgar Howard, Hon.
W. H. Thompson, Judge J. J. Thomas
and Hon. I. J. Dunn. You also say:
'I also wrote to Hon. J. S. Canady and
endeavored to interest him in the state
contest.' "You do not say you urged
Mr. Canady to become a candidate for
governor. Maybe you urged him to
take another place on the ticket.
"Except Mr. Canady none of the
democrats named by you have been
recognized by the people as dry men.
You say, however, that you would
still like to see one of those named
by you file for governor, and you
say: 4If one of the above named
democrats will volunteer his services
as candidate for governor I will glad
ly withdraw from the race in his
favor.'
"I will assume, of course, that you
make this statement to the public in
good faith, and I will now say to you
and to tne democrats of the state that
if you will agree to withdraw from the
race I will do likewise and we can
then both be united , with the demo
crats of Nebraska in drafting either
Hon. J. S. Canady of Minden or Judge
J. J. Thomas of Seward into this race,

paign to win a great democratic vic
tory. "I have known both Mr. Canady
and Mr. Thomas for abouty twenty
years and no better men live in the
state than these two worthy demo
ciats. Neither one of them can re
fuse a draft to public service under
conditions as they now exist, and I
hope you will join me in bringing
about this much desired result.
Neither one of these men might volun
teer to enter the race under the cir
cumstances, but I am sure either one
will respond to a call.
"Will ycu agree to the proposition?
Yours truly, "George W. Berge."
