earn a living as the result of unwise In
vestments, was awarded judgment for
111325 by District Judge Fears at tho

l!ly M. Urown.
In partial payment of the Judgment
Judge Fears ordered title to two houses
and lota owned by tho defendants to he
turned over to Mrs. Brown, He held
that the property was purchased with
money secured from Mrs. Gruber.
Mrs. Gruber alleged that she had paid
(.1,000 to Mr. and Mrs. Brown for the
promotion of a patent medicine called
by Brown the "antiseptic wonder." .
In Denver Mrs. Gruber lias a suit
pending in which she is seeking to re
cover the remainder of hor fortune, lost
by her In an investment.
County Attorney Maguey is investigat
ing the evidence brought to light in
Judge Bears' court.
A janitor who works on the first
floor of the postofflce building has
had to rive up the unequal struggle
to make ends meet, following the
cutting off of eight days' pay by the
government this year and the chang
ing of pay day, so that now the
meager and curtailed wages are not
paid for nny month until the 1 Mh of
the following month.
He had to go to the "loan sharks." He
borrowed $.0 from the Oman Loan com-
j pany. which he agreed to pay hack In
ten monthly installments of 17.70 each,
thus disposing of the principal of $.V and
interest of $27.
This man asked not to have his name
nv-Ptioned, tor t teel the s'luim. He
lives, with his wife and four children in
Ihe neighborhood of Creighton university.

"Tills camo Just when our students left
us." he said. "We keep roomers to help
out the $f,5 a month thst I earn. Just
when our roomers left this notice tame
that we would lose eight days' pay. Well,
the coal bill wasn't paid from last winter,
and the gas and water bills came in, and
I said to my wife, 'What shall we do'.''
. We couldn't do anything, and so we had
; to borrow tho money and pay out all that
I interest. It will take Just half a month's
I salary to pay the interest alone."

"What we fear is that this wili happen

Predicts Business
Will PickUp in Fall
"While business in railroad circles la
not booming at this time, I expect that
we will have all we can do this fall,"
asserted II. E. Byrim, vice president of
the Burlington's operating department.
Mr. Byram was In Omaha a short time
Wednesday, having come over from
Chicago to go out over the Nebraska
and Wyoming lines on an Inspection trip,
accompanied by Assistant Manager
(ireer of the lines west or the Missouri
river. Continuing, Mr. Byram said:
"From all over the Burlington territory
come reports of a promise of one of the
hest crops ever raised. Wheat Is so far
along that It seems impossible for any
material Injury to come to the crop.
With corn it is somewhat different, as
it will be a long time before tho crop
will have matured. However, conditions
now point to a large crop all over our
territory.
"With fannwrs getting a hountlful
yield, tlr.s means increased business for
merchants and other tradesmen, and
with the high prices that are 'ikely to
maintain on all agricultural products,
there ts no apparent reason why the next
year should not he a most prosperous on
fo- all.''

Poor little Tad Is an outcast.
Tad Is a tailole that was placed In
the finuarium In tho rotunda of Tho Bee
building by State Fish Commissioner
O'Brien somo time ago along with half
a hundred goldfish.
At thut time Tad looked just like a
fish. Of course, he didn't have any bright
colors to brag about, but the ttrlnt'm'i utl",
gold'lsh recognized him casually end, as
"Melliticla" would say, he soon lieca.nio
"one of the most popular members of tho
ai'iarium younger set."
Old Man Uoldfish found Tad un ngreu
s hie companion, and they hoop gut in
the way of strolling about tho niu;iriuni
together. The old gentlefisli told Tad
of his am eetors In Japan, for he wan
very proud of his family.
Tnd couldn't reciprocal in this renpeet,
for h could renu mber nothing of Ids
family. All he knew va tlial he first
saw the light of diy In a tank at the
state fish hutchetics in (Irettia, Neb.
M-vmma (ioldflsli, being of a match
making turn of mind, looked Tad over
and decided lie would mak i a good hns
hrnd for fifteen or twenty of her daugh
ters, and she began dropping little prun
ing remarks such an "That young Tad
Is certplnly a perfect gentleman. I liko
hill."
The fifteen or twenty daughters liked
Tads tooks and actions, too, and soon
it seemed that a real love affair whs
under way. Tad used to take the glrN
out swimming and nhowiu them all
the durk places and the " lovers' I.'tne,"
which la thl'oujrh a hollow tile Ihat lies
in tho iuiUBriuni. How they did hiicbi
with prettnded fright as he led tliem
through there! How brave lio was!
And thin came an awful revelation
The "skeleton" came stalking out of
j Tad s closet The fifteen or twenty gold
fish girls came swimming with excited
.flirts of their tails to where the.r mother
was dozing in the center of the t.mk
' Oh, mothi r," they all gurgled nt once
"h, mother, what kind of creature have
you oho: en for a husband for us'.'"
Children, what is the niusuiug or

"I'ome, show me," sho gulp.d. Awav
they swam and soon found Tud. I'cor
fellow. The legs were there, indeed. Hn
swam innocently toward tho fari.liy. Hut
Mother Goldfish, with a flip of her tail,
bade him keep away, and usheted her
daughter sternly hack to the sanctuary
of the hollow tile.
".lost wait till your father hears of
this." hhe said, gritting her gills. "It was
he who introduced this imposter Into our
family."

Poor Tad! His legs grew longer every
day and finally his tall dropped off! He
la a frog.
There he sits, all lay, on top of the
hollow tile, out of the water, like an
