STATE AUDITOR STANDS PAT
Refuses to Take Back Order About
Insurance Agent.
WILL PUT STOP TO EEBATDTQ
Official Determined to Prevent
Methods thnt He Finds in
Progress Klllen Mar Bo
Candldnte.
(From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 12. (Specials
State Auditor Barton Is receiving numerous
protests on his ruling that before licenses
will be Issued Insurance agent. It will b
necessary ior me agents to rill out a
blank card showing how much business
they have written during the preceding
year, the amount of experience they have
had and other Information by which the
auditor will be able to determine whether
the applicant Is a bona fide Insurance
agent or is simply taking out a license in
order to secure a rebate from the In
surance company assuming his risks.
The auditor Informed one company that
It brought about the order Itself by reason
of the fact that It gave to certain persons
with a lot of property to Insure a eommls
slon as agent, whloh permitted the person
to secure a rebate without violating the
law. At the same time the person getting
such commission would write no other In
surance. The auditor has refused to change
his ruling.
Reporter Defies High Prices.
Though the woods are full of pessimists
and high prioes hedge around the eon1
timer, and there is a question whether
two can live cheaper than one, T. A. Brown,
a reporter on the LlncolnState Journal,
hied himself out to Ohiowa yesterday and
this morning he became the husband of
Miss Zoe Chenoweth of that city.
These two were hoy and girl together
Just a short time back In the state unlver
sity, at a time when the dean of he
women's department was not possessed of
such eagle eyes, and so they had an oppor
tunity to fall In love.
Immediately upon , his graduation Mr.
Brown became a reporter on the State
Journal and as such he has made good In
other eyes than In those of the girl who
waited for him at Ohiowa. .
The bride Is the daughter of a very prom
inent cltlsen of Fillmore county, R. R.
Chenoweth, and while In the university
she took a most active part In the social
affairs of the school, being a member of
the Delta. Delta Delta.
The ceremony took place at the home of
the bride in Ohiowa at o'clock this morn
ing In the presence of a number of friends
of the couple from Lincoln. After a short
wedding trip, Mr. and Mrs. Brown will go
to housekeeping at 1424 D street.
Jones Seeks Reversal. v
James Jones, who was sentenced to tho
penitentiary for shooting and killing J. B.
Rowley out In Chase oounty, has appealed
to the supreme court for a reversal of the
verdict of the lower court. The transcript
of the evidence shows that Jones and Row
ley had trouble over a division fence,
Rowley was tearing down the fence and at
a distance of ISO yards the two had a duel
with rifles and at the fourth shot Jones
shot Rowley through tho breast and killed
him.
Klllen Thinks of Governorship.
Representative Dan Klllen of Gage county
was in Lincoln yesterday and wenWo Beat
rice) where last night he attended a meet
ing to which he had been summoned. Mr.
Klllen has been over the state pretty much
during the last few months and he may
announce his candidacy for the republican
nomination for governor, but yesterday he
had not fully decided whether he would be
candidate.
Lincoln Swamped.
With only one of the numerous conven
tions booked for Lincoln now In session,
the Lumber Dealers' association, the town
Is completely swamped. The hotels are
crowded and many last night were unable
to get rooms.
The hotel accommodations have been ma
terially lessened by reason of the temporary
closing of the Llndell, which is undergoing
extenslxe repairs, so while the crowd at
tending the lumber dealers' meeting Is
smaller than usual, the hotel accommoda
tlons are not equal to the occasion.
Last night a very well known pianists
who appeared here had to secure accom
modations out In the city, her manager
being unable to secure a room at any of
the hotels. - How the crowds which aro
expected next week are to be cared for is
a problem which so far has not been
solved.
Labor Commissioner Maupln suggested
today that cots might bo put In the state
bouse and the visitors use them In prefer
ence to walking the streets, for it appears
now that the good as well as the wicked
will have to walk In slippery places.
As many meetings are booked for the
next ten days the matter Is a serious one
to those who contemplate attending tho
meetings.
Manpln Flies Complaint.
Labor Commissioner Maupiif has filed
suits against the owners of twenty-two
buildings In Lincoln for a violation of the
fire escape law. Among those against
whom complaints were filed was Mayor
Don L. Love. Before he finishes the clean
up In Lincoln Mr. Maupln expects to file
more complaints here and about ISO com
plaints In Omaha.
Mr. Maupln also Intends to prosecute
those merchants who employ girls and
boys for falling to post a bulletin telling
of the hours the young people worked.
So for as he knows not a merchant In the
state has complied with that law.

FIND OUT
The Kind of Food That Will Keep

The true way Is to find out what Is
best to eat and drink, and then cultivate
a taste for those things Instead of poison

You. will never ngain buy clothes ns chenply as nt
this time nnd this store The recent tariff law
makes a rnise in next fall's prices inevitable with
every store in tho country, unless they had the
foresight, as did this store, to purchase woolens in
anticipation of the raise. Even we will eventually
have to pay more, but not for several seasons. Cer-,.
tain it is, however, that we'll never be able to tuy
for less, and consequently never be able to sell for
less, regularly, than last fall. Take this poipt into
consideration and couple it with the fact that any
garment we offer will be good for the rest of this
winter, early spring and fall wear and all of next,
winter and that you pay one half of the lowest'
price you'll see for years. Even if you've plenty
of clothes it will pay you to have more.
