His Tntlsiosr Coasts for Little, as

posite to It.
Abraham Horwitcn has oome to the con
clusion that it does not pay to be a wit-
nesa In an assault and battery case, par
ticularly when the parties concerned are
of the weaker sex.
About two months ago Jennie Greenspon
was made defendant In an assault and
battery case on the cOrnplalnt of Sarah
Bonesteln. who charged that the defendant
had struck her on the bead several tlmei
with a big stick.
The case dragged along In the justice
court of Judge Altatadt for several weeks
and finally waa settled by a decision in
which the judge found Jennie Greenspon
guilty of the charge and fined her 1 and
costs.
This decision was rendered In the face
ot contrary evidence given by Abraham
Horwltch. who was on the scene of battle
and saw the big buck in action. Ilia tes
timony was for the defendant.
Ha rah Boneateln "Just hated" Horwltch
from the time he testified agalnxt her In
court and she "laid for him" until Friday
afternoon, when she got a chance to hurl
some bad words cross the backyard fenea
at him. 8he then told him Just what she
thought of him and that was not much.
Horwltch did not like the terms Hara'i
ued In her conversation with him. and
he had her arrested for using "indecent"
language.
Sarah plead guilty to the charge pre
ferred agalnHt her in Judge Altntadt'a court
and was fined $1 and costs -the same
amount that Jennie Greenspon was as
sessed for her asxault on .Sarah.

Buying for ten stores at once, Dlers
Bros., a big Nebraska mercantile firm, haa
been holding a meeting in Omaha with rep
resentatives of some of the largest whole
sale houses In the I'nlted States and after
all had made offers and prices, the Omaha
houses secured the big majority of the
orders.
Representatives of houses In Cleveland,
I Chicago, bu Louis, Kansas City and bt.
Joseph met the buyers for the Dlers Bros.
In Omaha. All lines were carefully gone
over and big ordeis for dry goods placed,
the Omahans getting the majority of the
orders. The line of women's suits and
cloaks carried by Omaha houses captured
the orders against all competitors, the
same being true of blankets and flannels.
While in the city Fred Dlers, president
of the Nebraska Retailers' association, dis
cussed plans for the next meeting of the
association, which is to be held In Omaha
next February. It is planned to make this
meeting the largest gathering of retailers
ever held In Nebraska and President iDlers
