MARTENS TO HAYE
HOMES FOR SELYES
School Kiddie Are Building Homei
in the Manual Training
Schools.
BOOM FOR EACH OF FAMILY
The martens, among the most ex
elusive of the local bird social set,
are baring neat little bouses built
for them by the boys In the manual
training departments of the public
schools. Dr. 8olon R. Towne, archi
tect extraordinary for the birds, gate
his adTlce, and the United States gov
ernment furnished some bulletins on
the subject. Mrs. George A. Joslyn
also was brought Into consultation.
These birds require Individual
rooms In their houses, with openings
(between the rooms, so they may visit
back and forth.
The school children hare started work
on 90 bird houses which will be placed
in the parks early next spring. Miss
Helen Thompson, supervisor of manual
training:. Is directing the work.
Waist measurements of the birds are
being taken. This Is necessary In the
construction of these houses. Tor in
stance, the opening of a wren house must
be about the sis of a quarter, that the
sparrows may not enter and drive out
the little wrens. It Is said nothing- gives
more delight to a sparrow than to usurp
the domicile of a wren. When the wren
builds its own home it Instinctively makes
the opening so small that other birds can
net enter.
Mr. and Mrs. Owl will not have homes
built for them. Why? Because they hoot
and make mournful sounds and wake up
the other birds when they try to sleep.
The owl is non persona grata, ostracized.
In bad.
Bohemian Daily

: Monday, Afternoon
The first Bohemian daily paper west
of Chicago will Issue Its first number in
Omaha Monday afternoon. It will be the
' Dally Pokrok, and will have eight pages

middle west fresh reliable news dally. .
Vac and Lumlr C. Buresh and Mrs.
M. Buresh are the owners of the new
dally, which has modern equipment, in
cluding a Goes press, at its home on
Bouth Thirteenth street. Omaha and
Nebraska will benefit greatly among the
Bohemians through the new paper, for
it will boost the middle west. Instead of
Chicago, as all other Bohemian dailies
do -now.
The Dally Pokrok la the latest develop
ment' from the Pokrok .Zapadu, estab
lished .and owned originally by the late
Edward Kosewater. He- started it a few
months after he founded The Bee, ' In
1S71. Tte Tpkrok Zapadu-is still published
V here and has a wide sphere of Influence
among the properdui Bohemians of the
- middle West The Buresh interests, which
now own It entirely, .also have? seven
branch' papers, published at' Schuyler
and Crete, Neb.; Wilson, Kan.; Tyndall.
B. D., Cedar Rapids, la., and Bf- Paul,
Minn. They also publish a semi-monthly
farm Journal, Cesko Aroericky Vlnkov.
The editorial staff of the Daily Pokrok
will Include Otto Charvat, V. Pribyl, ,T.
W. Kroupa and Emll Tuma.
Mrs. Kahler Sues
for Personal Damages
Mrs. Henrietta Kahler, wife of Harry
Kahler, chauffeur, killed In a West
Dodge accident October 2J, has started
suit against the Unique Auto Livery
company, fcy which he was employed, and
asks 120.600 damages, alleginK that she
suffered the loss of her left eye and
other Injuries In the accident. The hus
band was driving the car and the cor
oner's Inquest found Kahler's death to
have been accidental, following evidence
that the party had bought liquor at road
houses. Mrs. Kahler does not mention her hus
band In her suit for damages for her
own Injuries. She bases her claim upon
the allegation that she had hired the
auto and that "a reckless driver and
poor vehicle" were furnished by the
company.
County Attorney Magney will secure
names of witnesses to the night liquor
sales at roadhouses and says he will
look up the case with a view of possible
prosecution If sufficient evidence Is ob
tainable. The coroner's Jury recom
mended that such places be closed by the
herlff.
Hallowe'en Party
in Church Parlors
A Hallowe'en party was riven Friday
evening by the young people of Ft.
Mark's Lutheran church. Twentieth and
Burdette streets, in the basement ot the
church. The rooms weie profunely decur
kted with cornstalks, black rats, pump
k'lis, etc. Pumpkin face grinned gro
tesquely from every corner. Black cats
and witches mounted on brooms swept
uncannily through the air. The electrio
light bulbs were shaded by yellow and
black leaves and the walls were decorated
In a scheme of yellow "and black. The
young folks wore fantastic costumes.
There were many games of wlerd and
mystic nature that amused the large
crowd until a late hour and a special
surprise was furnished in the nature of
the refreshments.
The committee in charge of the affair
consisted of Misses Mare a Meyer, Ines
Casberg, Lottie OehrU, Helen Puis,
Rachel Shults and Messrs. Elmer Ban tin
nd Fred Krtebs.
Wells Accused
ofKUlingWife
I'nlted States Marshal Fly tin brought
Charles Wells, an Indian accused of kill
ing his wife, from Pender Saturday.
The grand Jury refused to indict Wells
for murder, but did Indict him for assault
with Intent to kill. This was done be
cause there was no direct proof that
bis wife had actually died from the
wounds Inflicted by her ausband. Wells,
it Is asserted, will plead guilty to the
charge on whloh he was Indicted.
Twenty prisoners, besides a number of
Indicted persons out on bond, will be ar
raigned before Judge T. C Munger in the
federal court Monday afternoon to plead.
