Our army of buyers has returned from highly successful buying trips to New York markets. All are enthusiastic over their purchases. Wc believe that not in many years have Omahans had the opportunities for profitable buying that the Bennett Store makes possible now. Hasten, traders have not fully recovered from the depression of the last year, and Western cash was in great demand. Jobbers, commission houses and manufacturers, knowing the capacity bf the Bennett organization, eagerly disposed of great lots of roods to lis, sometimes as low as half actual values. Some of the plums are conspicuous in today's advertisements. Others will appearasthe goods arrive. s".h Muslin Underwear Oa aals for first ttans tomorrow, sptaial mas of maw aOy amaaUa rarsaewaa. swears ay ear ways walla ta ew Tort at akows ooat of materials.

CXXXSEKS ABE VXBY DESIRABLE rwaaaet t lee the Tklaa to Make Old Ir-wwa Plriimst aad Kodaa for flm Kweet aad itasvid Grwvtih. ".'. ut ti e most sttractlve combination t.f Mnea for thla rhmate Is the Japunra clematis aid ttw wistsria. Tley do tesr when p'antd tn the spring as won as the ground la warm enough to work easily." nplatned a New Jersey nursetvman whos specialty Is vinea "The a 1st aria needs al most no attention, once it la eatabllshed beyond keeping it trimmed. If it hat a chance It will give a wealth of bloom. The Japanese clematis la a very desir able vine for covering porches and arbors any place where Its tendrils can get some thing on which ti fas-en themselves. In the late sunuiter it is covered with a mass of white floaers. which are followed by a heavy crop of aeeda. which, if losatble, are more beautiful and showy than the blooms "With the wistarta both tha foliage an4 the blossoms form an attractive combina tion. TLere Is oaa pcint, however, which mast bo guarded against. The wistaria la such a rapid and strong grower that unless w ate feed n will force off the shin gles at the house and even poll tha pillars of the porch out of place. Both are el. aa vines and flourish under the same tnst- snent, "XL Yiiu)a cieeper is auother la-dy vino that does wall without any especial cars In this climate. The long, loose growth of this vine makes it especially dr slrable for covering walla and the sides of houses. If massed with a flowering vine such as clematis the effect is very beauti ful. Not only Is the (lark fo'lage of the creeper enlivened by the blossoms of the clemati., but in I.'.e autumn when the leaves of the oreeper becomes crimson their beauty Is enhanced by tha white. . fussy seed pods of the clematis. Tet another pretty combination is the Japanese clemaiia and tha virgin's bower, which is also a variety of clematis. If these two varieties ae planted together the;-, will furnish s wealth of bloom all summer snd a wealth of equally showy seeds for the autumn. "To cover a dead tree I know of nothing better than the trumpet creeper. It can be used almost anywhere, but as with the wistaria caao must be taken to keep it from getting Into the Joints of buildings, for It will certainly pry them apart "It is especially suited for planting among rocks or to brighten an ova green w ind break, either a geo;p of trees or a hedge. It ran alwas be depended on to give a wealth of scarlet blossoms when almos! nothing else Is in boom. "Where surti aa additloa is needed on a lawn a post may be set up and the t um pet vine will soon make li iiapwaaabie lo distinguish it from tho picturesque stump. Combiaed with tha Virginia creeper on a post, on a stump or over a hedge, ypu not only get tLe cluster of red blossoms during tho fall and sjrr.mw. but tha brilliant scar let ft tho Virginia creeper's foilags In the aVitutra, "Wild grapes ara also dearabla for planting on the lawna, over arbors. !gtas and t.bnks of trees. Care ahuuld be taken never to have thews Tinea about tha house or In any plaoa where there la not at least a suggestion of tho custlc Tho affect wwuld bo inharmonious. "They are all rank growers and should never be planted nearer than (ivo feet apart. When this is done sKer a fear years it will be found advisable to take out every other one In order to give tho others room. The ones temoved should be cut back and set in other bars places on tha lawns. Draserr K ST ret with Viae. "In tho east there ara only a few rose vines which can bo depended on to give the draperr effect of a good viae. Tha only variety which I recommend for such purposes ts tho Rosa wichuratana, anion is admirably suited to training over bun galows or low cottages. It requires no spraying, baa amall but numerous single blossoms and Is attractive when not in bloom. "The Boston Ivy la another rank grow ing vine that needs little attention oaco it Is establish ed. H Clings ckoe to th sail a, giving a broad, smooth affect of deep green in tho spring and summer, which changes to a B.ilhanl crimson ta tho autumn. It haa a bluish black fruit that grows la clusters, and though Ipeon spicuoua. serves to distlnguUL both K and tho Virginia creeper from the dreaded pol ma Ivy, the f ull of tha pwsoa ivy being s tlin- a tut. "H jjere fragrant flow era ara mot objec tionable on tho porch Hall's boner suckle la an excellent vine.' It holds Ita leaves unit! January and may bo depended oa to bloeom from Juno uraul the harw Snows of mid a Inter cuts off tha buda. I prefer always to oombiaa tae hoooysucklo with another vine, aa it la very apt to lose its foliage near tho roots. "tu Wjo nu.th de of the bujld.ag I often uea tha English Ivy wKh tha honey suckle. Tho affect la very plaaaing and moat parsons associate tha two vines in a sentimental way. For covering the ground, especially hare apota under the ground where f-aa will not grow. I know of noth ing hotter than the English Ivy. Kadsa for Porches. "When ths object is to cover a porch or arbor In the fewest number of days I rec ommend the kudaa vine. So far as I know it Is the fastes tgrowtng vine In cult. na tion in this climate. Ita leaves sre large and tha shads dense. If often grows ss much aa fifty feet in a single season. "As far north as New Tork It will be killed down to about three f.et from the ground if the winter la severe. As the growth Is so rspld I bardly look up m that as a drawback. "Where tha object is temporary use. while slower permanent vines sre -m.ig on. the nasturtiums alii be found gentr. ally satisfactory. They will grow tea feet high la a season and f jrn'.s t a mass of blooms for at least three iron ths. "The loaves ara dea.rable f r salad and tha pwda make delicious pUkles.

As a covering to.- shrubs and hedges where blossoms are desired It ts snoot aattsfactory and adda greatly to tho aitrecltvenesa of grounds. Cars should bo taken u get ths boot seeds. s "The Dutchman s pipe and tho moon flower are other rapid growing vine that eoJuce large leavta nd dens shade. The moon flower has the added attraction of beautiful white rowers, which under or dinary conditions are produced in abund ance. These two vines gain In effectiveness by being combined with morning glories. .The Imperial Jtpsnee morning glory Is the bett for the d'mate of N-w Tork. and certainly tre hlossr-ms sre gorgeous cnousb to satisfy the m t eis'tine. A Matrimonial Trellis. "The rnatrlm ny ine Is also pllcular lv auit.ii to the '.re'lis. It has hng wand like brand ea h-tHng clusters of small purplish Moaeoms in the summer and bril liant scarlet be ries in the sutumn. The passion Tower, tl.ough not lorly above Washington, is well iT;h growing. It is ejsi y raised from ed and has large, a towy white fl jwers. witn a lutu unt mass of fol age. "Two vines thfet I have found particu larly Bstie.'actory which sre not gen erally used ste the climbing hydrangea and the California sr-ae. The hydrsnges. while hsrii to establih. gives fine results oio it gts well settled. "it needs rkh. moist srl!. and while it rsn stand partial shade, it will do belter in a good sunny location. It will also do better a dry summer t!:an a ulny one. it grows from fifty to eigi.ty f-t h:gh snd l.as iaige. showy clusters uf white blos soms. "The Cel foviia rose Is really a species of the bindweed family- snd for rank growU) and a profusion of blossoms it is hard to beat. These blossoms sra double and a bright shaoe of pink. Where it Is to be grown on the porch or for covering other limited spaces the roots stould be set m a tub. If allowed to expand ac cording to Its natural instinct it will crowd out everything elae. It ts effective for covering slum pa and any half wild corner of the grounds. BETTING ON SURE THINGS Are the Victims Leaa ralwable Than the t rooks Who f leeced Themf A curious ihsse of nun.ai nsluie is re vealed in the recent capture of four men. arrested st Kittle Rock, Aik.. In connection with alleged g'gantic swindling o;erstiuns conducted through tie meaus of fake lx rs races, pr is fights, wrestling matches snd foot races in vsrious psns of the west. Jl apr-ura that tncre awind'ers oirsted in a number of states snd eh ee for their victims men of wealth and prominence. Their scheme, no matter ahat the form of the coMist. was ti assure their victim thst the contest wss preananged on tl.st tl.'lr man a as sure to win and lo Induce him to bet thousands of dollaia on the re sult. As sn inducement it wss often the case that the allowed the victim to of ficiate as stakeholder, and the swindlers would put up several thousand dollars of their own money in Ms hards, along with his own. Of co irae. " they were careful to arrange matters eo that the mney would fall into their own hand at the climax of the swindle; and tl t tcptd at nothing, not even murder, to ace rnplisri the pur pose. Tha curious pi see of the esse is that the victims have proved almost invariably to l0 hard-headed. siiTeasful men. manr of them with a wids stpeiieace in the wsys of the world, who had srr.assed their fir tunes by tha easreiae of superior prudence snd judgment In business affairs. It would naturally be anppoaed thst men of this typo would be quick to detect such a shal low swindle as these sharpers proposed. ad that tbey rwli refuse to follow the lead of perfect at rangers, confessed scoun drels, in going to strange plsees. generally out in the woods, and earning large sums vf Boooey to be placed as s agger upoa a wrestler or runner whom they' had nevet seen or heerd of. upon tha bare assurance ofrsjcal8. also perfect straagwrs to them, tbst the affair was filed for them to wia. But. strange to aay, tha victims ara mum red by scores, and perhaps hundreds, of the moat prominent man In vartoua oom munli . These latest sharpers, who mads their headquarters at Uttla Rock, found any number of rreduloue victims In Mls souH. lows. Colorado, Ksnsas and other western statea.

Such is tha credulity, scl. we blush to say, tha frailty, of humaa nature. Kven more curious, too. la tha virtuous Indignatl'jn of the victims against those who have fleered them. In great earnest ness they demand the aid of tha law in re covering their money and tha coodgn nuilahanent of too sharpers, apparently quite oblivious of their own guilty partici pation in a schema to swindle ot Iyer sup posedly Innocent persons In a aura-thing game. Their smug respectability and un conscious hypocrisy sre most amaaing.
