APPEAL IN BIG DITCH CASE
Rock Island Railroad Decide to
Take Matter is Court.
NEW PHASE OF CONTROVERSY
Ohjertlna: Land Owsfn Receive AM
from an l'Bpecte4 ooree
Valldltr of F.stahllsfcraent
of District Attacked.
iwKm..h it -aj fullv exaected that the
controversy over the establishment of the
Nlshnabotna drainage ditch wouia ne
i.i,.n iin .he cmrts. the land owners who
are opposed tc the project have reoelved
aid from an unanticipated source. The
Chicago. Rock Island A Pacific Railway
company yesterday served notice on Ccunty
Auditor Inncs that It -vould appeal to the
district court from tha action of the Board
of Supervisors, sitting as drainage eoarn,
i.. ..i.uu,ir,ir tha Nlshnabotna drainage
district. A bond In the sum cf $f.00 wa
filed yesterday afternoon By tne rauwn
company.
The line of the Rock Island rrom Avoca
niiih to r.rnn will be affected by the
construction of the proposed drainage dis
trict. The Carson branch Mini near me
Nlshnabotna river and It !s claimed by
that the construction
of the proposed ditch would necessitate
some .changes In the line.
As the railroad company has decided to
appeal from the establishment of the ditch,
such action will not now ne necessary an
ih. nr. these landowners who were op
posed to the project. It. Is possible, how
ever, that some of the larger ODjecung
landowners may decide to go In with the
railway company with a view of making
the case stronger.
Attorney Frank hlnn of Carsnn, who
represents some of the owners ef land af
fected by the ditch, stated that while he
would certainly appeal from the appraise
ment of damages In several cases, he would
leave It for the railroad to take Into court
the matter of the establishment of tho
drainage district.
It la expected that the appeal by the rail
way company will come on for hearing at
the next term of court, which opens Au
gust 31, At the statute provides that "Tho
or.a.anc terrn shall be '.he trial term."
The esse will, In accordance with the
statute, be tried In equity.

Evidence Not Snfllclent to Hold John
Monlman and W. C. Jenkins.
John Woolman and W. c. Jenkins, who
were arrested last Monday afternoon, when
the officers made a raid on two places
at Cut-Off. where It was alleged gambllns
was being conducted, were discharged at
the preliminary hearing held here v.mr.
day before Justice Gardiner. There was no
evtaence to show that gambling was In
progress at 601 Locust street, where the
two defendants were arrested.
Two tables, alleged to have been used
as gambling devices and the portion of a
roulette wheel, which were found by the
officers at 501 Locust street, were also be
fore the ccurt. Justice Gardiner after tak
ing the testimony of Deputy Sheriff Henry
Leuch a an expert witness, ruled that the
articles seized were gambling device and
ordered them destroyed. Neither Woolman
norJenklns offered any claim of ownership
of the tables, but Attorney Emll Schurz,
who stated he represented the widow ;if
a gambler who died a year or two ago,
but whose name he declined' to make pub
lic, claimed them cn behalf of his client.
He stated that the articles In question h.d
been stored at the place In Cut-Off since
the death of the husband of his client,
and had not been used for gambling pur
poses since. Assistant County Attorney
Ross, on the other hand, contended that
being gambling devices, they srfould be
ordered destroyed whether they had re
cently been used as such or not. The
oourt took the matter undor advisement
and later In the day decreed that the ar
ticles should be put out of commission
with an axe.
The preliminary hearing In the case of
W. C. Rosa, charged with maintaining a
gambling place at 910 Locust street, was
continued until Tuesday of next week. John
N. Sheffler and M. H. Sherman, also
charged with Ross In maintaining the al
leged gambling house at Cut-Off have not,
as yet, been taken Into custody.

Let Me Tell Yea Something
Nature creates no two men exactly
alike physically.
So doesn't It stand to reason that
clothes must be constructed for each
Individual to be absolutely satis
factory? When you buy a ready-made ult,
the sulesman will run the tape
around the waist line, and possibly
down the outer trouser's seam.
He will then sagely remark, "You'll
take about a 88. Thanks, call again."
Result to you a lemon.
A ready-made guassflt however
temptingly "marked iwn" la dear at
any price.
The original outlay for a suit made
to order by us Is no more than that
asked fur a hand-me-down, but the
Investment Is worth double.
For $15, $17.50. $20. $22.50.
$25 or $30
will make you as good a suit In
every respect as any tailor In town
would charge you $5 to $10 more for.
We'll make It right here In Omaha
In our own workroom and our best
tailor will do the work.
You run absolutely no risk, for we
Incorporate In every order "Satis
faction or no pay."
