NOW please do not flay me alive if 1 mention the word HelRlan.
No atrocities of any aort are to be referred to for we are all
tired of wallowing in war talk and Incidentally a little redress
from relief work would be most welcome.
But however long It has been with us, the war Is still Influencing the
style bureau. In Chicago the girls and men are donning the most at
tractive skating sets, Just like the ones we have all knitted for the Relgian
oldlers, or the ones we Intended them to look like. They combine the
cap with the scarf and are wearing them on all occasions. They were first
een In Omaha on Miss Helen Cndahy, who Introduced them on her recent
visit here.
But apropos of this spirit of war deluging us In so many various ways,
why do not some of our brides-to-be marry soon? They could have such
a fashlonabl military wedding. The bridesmaids might carry sabres and
wear gold spura on their slippers. It would creste a delicious sensation, a
sort of vlvandiere dress, you know.

Weight of Bread
Measure Delayed
Week by Council
The city council referred to the com
mittee of the whole Mayor J. C. Dahl
man's resolution to take from the files
an ordinance relating to the weight of
bread. This measure was placed on file
In May of 1113 after several discussions
In the council chamber.
A -delegation of master bakers at
tended the council meeting, expecting the
matter would be reconsidered. They will
return next Monday and will appear be
fore the committee of the whole.
The bakers prefer to standardise the
price rather than the weight of bread,
while the city Inspector of weights and
measures takes the opposite view.

CASHIER SAYS HE

Cross-Examination of Cashier Ends
Today After Seventeen Hours
in Witness Chair.
HOWELL EXCUSES WITNESSES
A bit of humor enlivened an otherwise
dull morning In federal court during the
tiinl of Attorney Thomas H. Matters on
the chargs of aiding in the unauthorised
Irsuance of certificates of deposit end In
the misappropriation of funds of the now
ikfunct First National bank of Sutton.
Cashier Theodore Miller of the bank
was on the stand for the third day and
was being cross-examined by ex-Senator
K. J. Burkett for the defense. The latter
was trying to trace and chock debit items
In Matters' account with the bank. Re
ferring to an account of D. T. Turner,
Burkett asked of Miller:
"You used to call that the Dan Turner
account, didn't you?"
Mistaking Turner's first name lor a
common cuss word, Cashier Miller
hastily replied:
"Oh, no, we never called anybody's ac
count a damn account" i
Judge Youmans and the Jurors joined
attorneys and spectators In a hearty
Irugh, after which the trial settled down
again to a tiresome review of Metiers'
dealings with the bank. At the noon re
cess Attorney If. H. Wilson for Matters
announced that another hour would finish
their cross-examination of Cashier Miller.
The latter has been on the stand a total
o( about seventeen hours, three days of
court work.
