Eleven delegates were present and all seemed interested in the work. First, instructions were given on how to select becoming and attractive hats. Different types of figures, faces, coloring of hair and skin were studied and why some women can wear certain shapes and others can not. Another interesting phase of the work was that of cut ting paper patterns, trying them on and remodeling them until they suit ed the face and figure. Renovation and remodeling of old shapes and material was also taken up. Many old hats were remodeled and made to look like new. Also, many new and becoming hats were made for both women and children, all of which the owners may well be proud. Friday, March 10th, an interesting style show was held. Miss Harris gave a short talk on the history and cost of hats. Fiften hats were on display and more than 30 women at tended the style show. The total cost of these hats was $33.69. a sav ing of about -69.24 to the women. Many of these hats were remodeled but over half were entirely new. All of the women returned home with the fruits of their labors tucked away in a band box determined to go home and pass on the information gained at the school to the rest of the women who could not attend the millinery schook .We expect to hear from these six communities in the near future and we know the reports will be worth while.

SUFFERS SEVERE ACCIDENT Yesterday afternoon Mrs. George Detloff of Omaha, formerly Mrs. Florence Newton of this city, was the victim of a very painful accident at the Leavenworth laundry in Omaha. Mrs. Detloff was engaged in some work there and in so doing had her left hand and arm caught in some of the machinery resulting in the frac ture of the bones of the arm and the breaking of the wrist. The Injured lady was hurried to a hospital where the injured arm was dressed and the patient made as comfortable as pos sible under the circumstances altho she suffered a great deal of pain from the Injury. CAGE BALL TOURNEY WAS ACCOMPANIED BY SUCCESS ers, having taught at Las Cacadas, Gorgona, Pedro Miguel and old La Boca. "On arriving at her first school at Las Cassadas, with books, she found a bare room 24x36 not even a black board installed, but 26 pupils all sizes and colors waiting for her. Af ter enrolling the children, she asked each one to bring a bottle of water and a box to sit on in the afternoon, but boxes were scarce and most of them set on the floor for over three weeks. An American lady kindly loaned her a chair and small table for herself; in six weeks her school showed a daily attendance of 119 pupils. Her school closed at 2:15 each day, but often it was seven o' clock when she reached Panama on labor train (where, she was obliged to live) due to washouts, wrecks, etc., often having three or four wrecks before reaching destination. In speaking of her early life here, Mrs. Maxon recalls a collission with a trainload of coffins or. rough boxes (which were in constant den'ini those lays) the Impression of which remains with her, such were the experiences of the 'old timers," as they were commonly called, but we will draw a curtain over the pain ful sights and hardships of early davs, which we might record, and ccme back to this beautiful garden of flowers and cleanliness made so by the people who gave their early days to answer the call 'Divide the land, unite the oceans, who helped to achieve 'America's triumph. Mrs. Maxon is a woman among women. She enjoys a large circle of friends and many social memor ies linger about ' her pretty cottage on Tivoli hill; she has been the guest of honor at many social functions since her going away has been an nounced. Many lovely dinners have quietly at the pleasant home he had secured in the south portion of the city. Mr. Klinger has been seriously sick only .from last Friday, as he was affected at that time with an attack cf heart trouble that was found to be very dangerous and which came as the climax of a case of blood poi soning from which he had suffered as the result of an accident. His con dition grew rapidly worse until the death yesterday. The funeral services will be held on Thursday afternoon at 2:00 from the St. Paul's Evangelical church. DOES NOT FAVOR CHANGE IN STREET Taxpayer Urges the Retention cf the' t Present Form of Main Street Flood Danger Reason. Plattsmouth is unfortunately so situated that her storm drainage problem is vastly different from oth er towns, in fact it is doubtrul whether another town could be found in all the country which ha.such an amount of water to dispose or during heavy rains, as Plattsmouth has. There seems to be an inclination among rome of those who have not had the costly and unneedful losses through floods, to favor a sewer sys tern to take of this surplus water.

The loss, according to early esti mates 'by the fire chief, will exceed $10,000,000. "ft" Skyscraper Destroyed Among the structures destroyed by the fire, aside from the "fire proof" Burlington skyscraper, were the Atlantic and Austin buildings, extending from 300 to 318 South Canal street. These two buildings formerly belonged to the Warren Springer estate and were the most property in the square which was the principal scene of the fire. Insufficiency of water supply pre vented the work of more than a score of fire companies in holding the flames to their original sourcee, tho almost the entire department was called out. At the Burlington build ing It was noticed that the hose streams would not reach higher than the eighth story. Printers Escape The fire was discovered shortly be fore 1 by Thomas Galvln, watchmai for the Austin building. 310-318 South Canal street. He saw the flames in the offices of the Art Shade company. By the time the first fire apparatus had responded to the alarm they had spread to the Austin building in which many printers, bookbinders and other workers among various publishing firms were then working. They escaped with out injury.

"We are Germans and want our children to be Germans," said Ben jamin Fahr, a member of the party, in broken English. Fahr was the on ly member of the party who could speak or understand any English. He has been a resident of Ameri ca forty-six years, he said. In charge of the train, the third of six similar emigrant trains to carry the self-imposed exiles from the United States, was the Rev. Gerhard Friezen. He said in German, being unable. to either speak or understand English, that he had 'resided in America fif ty years. The trainload passing thru Oma ha last night was composed of 176 persons, fifty-three adults and 123 children. They arrived on the Minne apolis and Omaha railroad and left on the Burlington for St. Joseph at 4:15 this morning. The train left Hasket, last Saturday. Electrie Current Cut All electric current in the district was ordered cut off by Fire Marshall Thomas O'Connor immediately after his arrival. The Mercantile Trust and Savings bank, located on the first floor of the Burlington 'building, was Imme diately placed under guard of squads of police and firemen.
