The last leaf of her book has been

To her husband, son and daugh

"She is not dead, this friend, not

Got some few trifling steps ahead
And nearer to the end.
So that we, too. once past the bend.
Shall meet again, face to face, this
friend we fancy dead."

president of the corps. She will

Like a leaf on the current oast;

We watch them as one by one they
go
Into the beautiful past."

RECEIVE STIFF FINE
From Monday's Dally
Saturday afternoon at the court of
Judge William Weber was staged the
final chapters of the story of the
breaking of one of the electrolier
posts on lower Main street late Fri
day night. A party of joy riders from
Omaha had visited the city Friday
evening and in their tour of the city
they failed to properly guide their
gas chariot and the result was that
the car crashed into one of the elec
trolier posts near the Burlington
station and placed this pride and joy
of the city lighting system out of
commission.
The parties made their getaway,
but the night police were able to
secure their car number and as a
result the law was hot on their trail
and the parties were apprehended in
Omaha.
They came down Saturday after
noon and the whole story of the affair
was told to His Honor Judge Weber.
It was decided by the court that as
the parties who gave the names of
Starr and Brennan, had sustained no
personal damage in the wrerk and
the city being the only loser, the two
men pay over the sum of $50 to re
pair the damaged electrolier and al
so pay a nne oi $u ana cosis ior
their reckless driving, which was
done and peace and harmony again
reigned at the city hall.

is the teacher. These little five and
six year old children are organized
into a band, the instruments of which
are all homemade and the youngsters
are showing themselves to be real
entertainers at the various events that
they have appeared.
While the 17th infantry band was
here these young people assisted in
entertaining them and their clever
ness delighted and pleased the mem
bers of the band very much and was
a real treat of the occasion. The lit
tle band, numbering some twenty,
gathered at the room in the building
at the corner of Fourth and Main
street where the band was fed and
the little folks gave a short concert
with their cymbals and other instru
ments and which was greeted with
the heartiest applause by the band
members and the teacher. Miss Fields,
as well as the little people received
warm congratulations from the direc
tor of the band and the various mem
bers. The band is led by Miss Betty Ann
McCarty as director and her clever
little stunts in leadership has proven
a real hit with those who have wit
nessed the performance of the little
folks.
This ia one of the many interest
ing developments of the musical work
of the city schools and one that the
first ward school is to be congratulat
ed on their very clever organization.

James Stander
Has Fine Time
in the South
Well Known Louisville Resident
Present at International Sun
day School Meeting.
From Tuesday's Daily
James Stander, one of the well
Known resident or L.ouisvine, was
here today visiting his friends, this
being his first visit here since hi:
return from Birmingham, Alabama
where he was in attendance at the
international Sunday school conven
tion, one of the greatest religious
gatherings of the year of the nation.
Mr. Stander was the only Cass
county representative at the great
Sunday school meeting, alt ho he had
the pleasure of the company of a
party of Nebraska residents on the
way south. The members of the
party stopped at St. Louis and Mem
phis on their way south and came in
the first touches with the southland,
making a few short stops there and
viewing the sights of these old time
river cities.
Mr. Stander stated that the con
vention was one of the greatest that
lie has attended and he lias been
present at fourteen international
meetings and one world Sunday
school convention that was held at
Jerusalem a few years ago, the Birm
ingham meeting comparing very fav
orably with any of the great meet
ings that he has enjoyed.
On the treatment at Birmingham
Mr. Stander has the warmest word?
of praise and states that the south
ern city gave royal hospitality to the
visiting delegates from all over the
United States, Mexico and Canada
The city had made very elaborate
arrangements for the convention and
in the great gathering there was the
atmosphere of the brotherhood of
man, the gerat goal of the Sunday
school work.
After the close of the convention
Mr. Stander enjoyed a trip through
Georgia and Florida and especially
enjoyed the time spent at Atlanta
where he viewed the great Stone
mountain memorial ' that is being
constructed " to the heroes of ' the
southland on the face of this great
granite mountain that towers 1,120
feet in the sky. The mountain is
seven miles around and Mr. Stander
states the figures that are being
made on the face of the mauntain
are of gigantic size, a head of a man
occupying a space of some thirty feet
while in the features the chiseled
nose of the figures will take up some
six feet, so that an idea of the great
size of the figures may be gained.
In the mounted figures it is 150
feet from the feet of the horses to
the head of the man's figure. Robert
E. Lee. Stonewall Jackson and Jef
ferson Davis and other leaders of the
confederacy will be used in the mem
orial. After leaving Atlanta Mr. Stander
motored from Jacksonville, Florida,
to a large number of the cities in
that part of the south including
Tampa and the west Florida coast
cities.
