The Crossett fits around these cords just snug ly enough just loosely enough to sacrifice neither comfort nor looks. Those who witnessed the marriage cere mony of Adam Legler of Hastings and Evelyn McClintock, the bride of 17, who left her husband after three days, are not greatly surprised at the turn the affair took. Throughout the service the girl hung back and appeared to be acting against, her own wishes In the matter. They told one of the clerks In the office they had known each other for only two weeks. Mr. Legler, on the other hand, was tn a very Joyful mood. He applied for the license first Friday evening,, but because "of the youth of the bride he had to return to Waterloo and secure the consent of her father. When he returned to the office Saturday he sang out cheerfully to Mar riage Clerk Furay, "You fellows In Doug las county are slow to let us fellows from the west come here and marry your good looking young women."

(Special Tele gramsMrs. Adam Legler, who left her husband suddenly at Grand Island, was located In Fremont last evening at the home of Al Cain, south of the railroads. She says she loft Legler because she did not love him, that she did not take any of his money, and that a man by the name of Jack Tracey gave her to with which to leave town. She denies emphatically that she was abducted, but Intimate? that there Is a young fellow, about 19 years of age, she thinks a good deal more of than she does of her husband.

E BENCH MADE Jl tiV. lie HAYDEN BROTHERS OMAHA AGENTS. Bee Want Ads-Business Boosters TOUR OF THE RAILROAD SHOPS Second Trade Excursion Will De Through Planta of the Vnloa Pacific. A. L. Mohler, vice president and general manager, andS W. R. McKeen, superinten dent of motive power and machinery of the Union pacific Railroad company, will con duct a party of Omaha business men through the shops and motor car works Thursday, May 21, when the Commercial club gives the second of a series of "nome trade excursions." " k The excursion goes to the great railroad shops at, the special Invitation of Mr. Mohler, and as It will be the first visit which ninety out of 100 business men in the city l.ave made to the shops, the trip is anticipated with unusual interest. Those who desire to go will meet at the club, where J. E. Hendricks and the entertain ment committee of the club will escort the party to the shops. After that the trip will be personally conducted by Mr. Mohler. The last trip was made to the ware- houses of'M. E. Smith & Co. and the warehouse of the Vnlted States Supply company. But the Union Pacific shops are so extensive and there Is so much to see of Interest both In the car and locomotive shops and the motor car works that the trip will be confined to the visit to the railroad shops and no other place will be visited. " "When I ask for anything It Is because I won before, not because I have been beaten." This Is the succinct reply of Jlm-Pahl-mnn. mayor, candidate for governor, to Lysis Abbott, lawyer, candidate for at torney general. I.ysle I. Abbott was democracy's candi date two years iyf for attorney general, hut he snys It wns a hopeless case at the very outset and that according to an un written law In democratic politics when a man sacrifices himself In a hopeless race he Is to have another chance If he wants It. This second chance Abbott has about determined to ask for, despite the claims of Mayor Dahlman and Comptroller Lo beck, who are both chasing the guber natorial bee, which bee is much larger and of more Importance and to which more glamor la attached than to the office of attorney general of a state. "If Douglas county is entitled to a state candidate, I think the first chance should fall to me," says Attorney Abbott. "I cam paigned six weeks last time, toured the entire state at my own expense and spoke once and sometimes twice a day and the party will not overlook this service. There was no hope of winning two years ago, therefore, if I want the nomination this year I think I coull get It." Abbott 'Caret Nutiaht. Regarding the chances of Dahlman and Lobeck the attorney seems to care little, saying he believes Shallenberger and Berge, the ever-candidates, have the best show for the nomination for governor, but Dahlman and Ijobeck think otherwise, naturally. Lobeck says that Abbott has his permission to run for attorney general, but that It will not "fease" him In the least, and Dahlman says that forty candidates can file for state offices as far as he Is con cerned, but that nothing will deter him from filing for the gubernatorial nomina tion. "In the old convention days possibly Ab bott's claim for recognition might havi counted for something, but riow It is dif ferent and he nor any one else will have the bulge on me," says Mayor Dahlman. "We will all go before the people at the primary stripped of all prestige and power and the people will decide who they want on the ticket and later they will decide who they want to fill the offices. The wishes of the 'big' democrats will 'cut no Ice,' they will make no slate, and It will be entirely up to the people. Though as far as the "big guns' are concerned, I think I can number as many friends among them as the rext fellow. "Abbott seems to cling to the old conven tion theory and that the war horses will tell the delegates to nominate him for at torney general on account of 'signal' service done the party, and that my friend Lobeck and I would therefore be left out In the cold, dreary and forlorn. But he has another think coming." Jim la In for the Finish. "I have positively determined to make a try for the office of governor and will file before September 1 for the nomination. All candidates must file by that date, you know, and if I don't get the nomination I will know the reason why." The mayor says he has received assur ances from Chicago that the Cook county democracy will come to Nebraska and parade the streets of the city of Omaha or any other city in the state the mayor might designate, or go on a tour of the state with him If he wishes It. In short, the democrats of Chicago will do every thing possible to help the chief executive of Omaha land tho nomination for gov ernor. Dahlman, it must be remembered, has just returned from Denver, where he went with Roger Sullivan, but whether Sullivan proffered tho services of the Cook county democracy or not, he did not say. There are 400 men In the 'Cook County Democracy Marching club, and, as the mayor puts it, "there will be something doing when they go marching up Farnam street, and don't you forget It." Doth Claim Aaaurancea. Both Dahlman and Lobeck say they have received assurances of support from all parts or tne state and both are sanguine of success at the primaries. While the mayor states unequivocally that he will file for the gubernatorial nomination, the compironea still attacnes the little word if" to his Intentions, somo local demo crats being of the opinion that the latter Ib seriously considering the advisability of running for railroad commissioner instead or tor governor, as he announced ori. many. Lobeck says there Is nothing In the fa'ir roaa commissioner talk, but that "If" he runs for an office it will be for governor. Comptroller Lobeck says his gubernatorial boom has passed without the confines of the state of Nebraska, and in proof of this shows a copy of the Dayton (la.) Review which contains a "puff" for the candidate LouecK uvea in tne lowa town when he was a boy and Daytonites look upon him In tne ngni oi a tavorltc son. The comptroller leaves Saturday for Mliford to visit a sister and' to line up the faithful In that neck of the woods. o o o o o o o o WE TRUST THE PEOPLE " M The l'copla Furniture wml Cnrpot f.

NEWS OF THE ARMY CIRCLE Board of Offlccrs Postpone Meeting; on the Taraet Range Matter. The meeting of the board of army officers called for Fort Crook Friday to discuss the proposition for a new target range nenr the Fort Crook military reservation has been poptponed. The postponement was made necessary by the absence of one or two officers of the board and tho wrecked con dition of affair at Fort Crook as a result of the recent tornado. Information lies been received at army headquarters In Omaha from the War de partment that the annual military maneu vers will be held at Fort Riley from Au gust 10 to September 10. The maneuvers will comprise the execu tion of miscellaneous military problems and experiments by all branches of the army service, to be carried out In the same man ner as if In active service in the field, In cluding sham battles, camps and marches. Similar maneuvers will be held near Fort D. A. Russell during the month of August. The contract for the transportation of the First battalion of the Sixteenth United States infantry from Fort Crook to Water town, S. D., has been awarded to the Northwestern Railroad company. The bat talion will leave for that point Saturday morning to be absent a month on target practice. Upon its return to Fort Crook the other, or Second, battalion of tho same regiment will go to Watertown on a simi lar tour of target duty. Retter and Cheaper Ones Will on the Local Market Later jnn. Da Plneapplss more than almost any other fruit are claiming the attention of house wives Just now, and some good fruit for canning purposes is In the market at this time. Commission and fruit men say, however, that better and cheaper pine apples -will be, here a little later and that the time' for canning has not yet arrived. Good pineapples retailing at from 8 to 15 cents each are to be had, these being about the last of the Cuban crop which Is about exhausted. The Florida crop will begin coming in next week and this Is the fruit to can. Strawberries are selling at about 15 cents a quart box, but they are not as nice as they migh be. The Missouri berries will be in Text week and while the price will be about the same they will ba of much better quality. Apples are about gone and next week will "clean-up" the local market, the eommis slon men prophesy. Owing to the abundance of other fruit bananas are cheaperhan they were. Oranges are a little higher. An advance has 4een made In the price of tomatoes which will doubtless surprise many, owing to the season of the year. This advance Is caused by the closing of the Florida season, that crop being about exhausted now and It will be two weeks before the Texas tomatoes will be In the market. In the Interval, tho price is up. Tomatoea tal sold at .50 wholttala last WHEN YOU ASK YOUR DEALER FOR , Loose Fitting . B.V.D.
