STOP RUBBERING ON 'PHONES STORM DAMAGE IS REPAIRED
By MELLIFICIA.
Tuesday, May 12, 1914.
HE Junior Musical club started auspiciously with thirteen nieniboni
Tin the year 1013, I do not know whether the first meeting was
on the thlrtoonth or not, but tho club is flourishing, with nearly
thirteen more young women on tho watting list. Personally 1
think the children should have had their program tomorrow, May 13. Tho
average ago of the young women Is also 13, ranging from 12 to 15 years
of age.
Tho first program given by tho club was much enjoyod and was en
tirely a Mozart program.
A Beethoven program was planned for tho May meeting tho latter
part of the month, but their plans have been changed nnd Instead a mis
cellaneous program was given this afternoon at the attractive garage
studio of Mrs. Latham Davis.
This studio, which has been opened Sunday afternoons all winter for
interesting programs arranged by Mrs. John, M. Macfarland and Mm.
Latham Davis, Is to be closed this week for the summer, but tho muslcales
will be given again next season, and Mrs. Davis offered the studio this
week to the youthful musicians of tho Junior club.
This will bo tho last mooting this season of tho Junior Musical club,
and nearly all of tho members will take part. The greater numbor ot
them will play Bcothoven numbers, as originally planned. The membera
of this club are:

Henry Polllns Is probably the only man

"No more rubbering on the telephone
line In the rural districts," Is the slogan
of A, G. Howard of Tokamnh, who has
Invented and patented what Is known
as the Howard Indicator, which indicates
to the party calling. Just whose receiver
Is taken down along the entire line. It
Indicates thts by means ot musical notes
as signal. Every phone on the line Is
capable of giving forth certain musical
tones and combinations of tones, Just as
the old system has given combinations
of rings assigned to It. When ono takes
down the receiver to listen the combi
nation ot notes peculiar to his phone Is
given forth and transmitted over the line
to the ear of tho party calling. He can
thus tell Instantly who Is "rubbering" or
"butting In" as it Is called on the rural
lines.
An Indicator In front of tho man call.
Ing, registers Just how long the '"rubbor
Ing party" holds the receiver.
The party calling, can thus by the
sound of the notes detrmlne who Is cuves
dropping, and if that party caves-drops
more than a few seconds he can call
him by name pver tho line and say,
"Hey. Hill Jone, butt out ot there."
Alt this wilt 1x5 embarrassing to any
one surreptitiously listening to neighbor
hood gossip, and Is expected to put a
stop to tho practice. Putting a stop to
this practice It Is asserted win greatly
savo the batteries in ttjo various phones,
as, the practice of pulling down receivers
all along tho lino all day long, Is said to
exhaust the bnttorlcs rapidly.
Mr. Howard has worked on the patent
for eleven years. Ho now has It per
fected nnd a company has been Incorpor
ated. Ho saya he oxpects to begin tho
manufacture ot the Howard Indicator

Sears and Miles
May Be Candidates
for Governorship
Two possible republican candidates for
governor of Nebraska are Just peeping
over tho horlxon to see what the lay ot
the land Is politically. One Is District
Judgo Willis G. Sears of Douglas county,
who Is not saying much about It, and tho
other is Mayor Clarence J. Miles ot Hast
ings, who is also saying little, but whose
friends have been sounding out political
sentiment for him. Though admitting
that he is being "urged by friends," Judge
Sears says ho Is scarcely ready to an
nounce himself.

The Chicago-Omaha roads have re
paired the damages caused by the heavy
rain of .Sunday night, and again the
trains are back on schedule time. The
reports of the violence of the storm
through central Iowa continue to come
to tho offices ot the Omaha roads. In

having been a combination of wind, hall
and rain.
At Coon Ilaplds In Carroll countS" thcro
Is said to have been three Inches ot rain
Inside of an hour. There hall fell that
Instead of being real hall was Ice worked
up In chunks. Some of these measured
seven and eight Inches In clrcumferenre.
There the storm came from the north
east, and on the business streets ot the
town all of tho windows on the south
side of the streets were destroyed.
The Iowa storm apparently covered an
area about 100 miles in length and eight
to ten miles wide. Miles of telegraph
and telephone lines were blown down,
and nurfiorous small buildings were Un
roofed or taken off their foundations.
Owing to the storm coming so early
In tho mm Ron crdps that were damaged

trees In the hall belt have been denuded
of foliage and tho fruit. Tho berry bushes
have been beaten to tho ground nnd gar
