George and Company
Ready-to-live-in-Homes
Not only a first-class, well-constructed house, but
a house furnished throughout in the best of taste.
Here you profit not only by careful building at the
lowest possible cost, but you have the result of years
of experience in decorating and furnishing fine homes.
At a Low Cost
We venture to say that after looking over this
house you will be surprised at the reasonable price.
This is the result of experts buying for you the same
as if they were buying for themselves. The house is
convenient to the car line, located at 50th and Howard
streets, in Dundee's Newest Addition.

Secretary of I. W. W.
Is Pardoned When
Jardine Makes Plea
The Omaha police have received in
formation that six masked men
boarded Northwestern extra train No.
290 near Craig Wednesday and at the
point of firearms robbed the crew of
all they possessed. The authorities
further assert that their information
was sufficient evidence to mark the
holdups as members of the Industrial
Workers of the World.
J. J. Rogers, secretary of the local
organization, who was sentenced to
fifteen days in the workhouse Tues
day, was pardoned with a fellow mem
ber on recommendation of Commis
sioner Jardine.
Other members arrested and ar
raigned before Judge Kubat Tuesday
afternoon were given the privilege of
leaving the city or serving five days
in jail. Most of them decided to
leave.
Heavy Trade in Revolvers
Is Reported to Chief
Chief of Police Dunn has informa
tion that Douglas street second-hand
stores are doing a rushing business in
revolvers.
"We should have a law to control
the sale of firearms. Some cities pro
hibit even displaying them in win
dows," said the chief.
Members of the police department
have been instructed to watch the sale
of revolvers to irresponsible persons
and to arrest those who are carrying
shooting irons.
Wheat Prices Jump
Up At the Start
Wheat opened with a heavy bull
movement and a rise from yesterday's
close of as much as 4H cents on the
Omaha market due to shorts covering
on the report of black rust and heat
damage in the Canadian fields. By
noon the market had slackened and
eased off from the high mark of $1.18
to $1.1754. The close yesterday was
$1.134 and the opening figures for
the morning $1.141.18 on Septem
ber futures. The receipts at the
Omaha market were 265 cars, as com
pared with 11 a year ago.
Black rust and heat blight were
said to be extending the damage area
rapidly to the north. Estimates of
yields appeared to be valueless, as the
crop was shrinking constantly, in
quantity ana quality as well.-
First Congregational Has
Called Hastings Pastor
The First Congregational church of
Omaha has extended a call to Rev.
Fred J. Clark, pastor of the Hastings
(Neb.) Congregational church, asking
him to fill the pulpit of the local
church, made vacant through the
resignation ot Kev. f rederick Rouse.
Mr. Clark has been very successful
In work among young people. He is
understood to be willing to accept

"After you then," said Morton.
"The basket waits, my lady."
"Thank you. no," she replied.
"After you. In taking no chances
of having you maroon me on the
ledge the way you claim to have
marooned the Burke girl. Youll go
first, if you please, my friend."
"You seem to be obsessed with
suspicions of my motives, dear
countess," sneered Morton, "but any
thing to please." Stepping into the
basket, he slid across, whereupon
Olga hauled it back and crossed in
her turn. Together they approached
the cabin. Morton flung open the
door.
"She's escaped, the little devil!" he
snarled. "I feared aa much when 1
saw the basket. She had help from
outside, of course."
"What's this?" exclaimed Olga,
spying on the table the two books.
' Merciful heaven!" she cried, point
ing to Patten's name on the flyleaf
of one of them. "They're the very
books we have been looking fori
How did they get here?"
"I've no more idea than you have,"
sam Marion, utterly stupefied. "I
didn't see a sign of any books when
brought the girl here. Of all the
hellish coincidences! To think that I
should have stumbled on the cabin
of the very man we have been tnr
ing to find and not have known it."
You may well call it a hellish co
incidence," the snapped, holding up
the volume from which Hope had cut
the key of the code. 'This tells the
story. The naval officer that you are
always sneering at has been too
smart for you. He has not only found
his way here and rescued tne girl,
but he has evidently discovered the
secret of the submarine. You idiot!
You blockhead! You fool I" she
screamed, flaring into a sudden pas
sion. "You had the secret almost in
your hands and you have let it get
away from us! Was there ever such
incredible imbecility?"
But Morton was too stunned by the
disaster to reply to her taunts. The
imposing edifice that his imagination
had erected had suddenly collapsed.
With t.'leo's escape ended his scheme
of forcibly marrying her and thus ob
taining possession of the fortune
which she had inherited from Calvin
Montgomery. And, as though this
were not enough, the secret of the
submarine, on finding which he had
staked everything, had slipped
through his very fingers and was
now, he was convinced, in the hands
of his rival, the man whom he hated
more than any other Jarvis Hope.
The lavish expenditures he had made
in prosecuting the search had almost
exhausted his means. Gerald Morton
was a desperate ' and a dangerous
man.
"Well," demanded Olga, when her
anger had somewhat subsided, "what
are we going to do about it? There
is nothing to be gained by sulking like
disappointed children."
"We are going to follow them,"
said Morton grimly. "I'm going to
get that formula if I have to kill
them both."
"That," said Olga approvingly, "is
the way to talk. Let us be going."
Their mutual jealousies and sus
picions forgotten in the loss of the
formula, they recrossed the chasm
and climbed into the aeroplane. A
moment later and, with a roar from
its propellers, it rolled forward across
the mesa and soared into the air.
During their brief stay in the cabin,
however, the wind, already danger
ously high, had risen to a gale, and as
their craft, leaving the comparatively
sheltered mesa, climbed skyward, It
was buffeted as a ship is buffeted by
the waves. But it was impossible to
return to the mesa now, and to at
tempt to descend elsewhere was but
to invite disaster. The driving force
of its powerful engines notwith
standing, the aeroplane was as help
less as a skiff in a storm. Yet so
masterly was Morton's driivng, so
perfect his co-ordination of hand and
brain, that it seemed as though his
skill would triumph over the elements
and that he would succeed In reach
ing the plain in safety. But auddenty
a wind squall leaped out at them
from a canyon over which they were
passing: the frail machine reeled and
quivered before the blow, and. de
spite Morton's desperate efforts,
turned sideways, cspsiied and plunged
like a wounded bird into the gulf
below.
An hour or so later a party of cow
punchers, returning to their ranch
after rounding up a bunch of strays in
the hills, saw on the rocky slope of
the canyon a tangled mass of canvass,
wood and steel. Galloping up, they
preceived, half buried beneath the
wreckage of the aeroplane, the bodies
of Olga and Morton.
"Thev're still breathing, boys,
pronounced one of the punchers
when he and his companions had
aurrn.rlrrl in extricating the man
Imate forms. "They're in pretty bad
shape. The girl's ribs are all stove
in and I'm afraid the fellow's cracked
his skull. Bill, you chase down to the
ranch and bring up the spring wagon.
Better put in a mattress and plenty
of blankets, and bring along some
whisky. Send one of the boys off to
town for the doctor and tell him
to get a move on, too. Thuie people
are nurt mighty bad."
So that when Morton and Olga
regained consciousness,' days later,
they found themselves in a ranch
hmiac in a mountain valley, with
cowboys nursing them back to health;
CORN STILL HAS A
FEW DAYSOF GRACE
If Rain Falls Within few More
Days Nebraska Crop Will
Survive Hot Spell Nicely.
NO SAIN IN SIGHT TODAY
(To Be Continued Tomorrow.)
Hot Wind Here 22
Years Ago Recalled
On Anniversary
Twenty-two years ago Friday
Nebraska was plunged into a deep
gloom.
For a hot wind, like a blast from a
fiery furnace, had blown Its devastat
ing breath across the state and the
corn crop had been burned to a crisp.
The hot wind came on Juiy 26.
"I shall never forget that day," said
Colonel Welsh of the weather bureau.
I rode home at noon on an open Far
nam car and the wind was so hot that
we had to turn our heads to get our
breath. The temperature was 106.
"On May 19 of that year there were
killing frosts and all the corn had to
be replanted. They expected about
half a crop until that hot wind came.
"With a total failure in 1894, apar
tial failure in 189S and Bryan in 1896,"
said the colonel, "the country was
almost used up.
"Today it would be possible to have
such a failure and no special harm
would be done the state. Farmers
would say it was unfortunate and
they'd order out their automobiles and
have a good time until time to put in
a new crop. But in those days the
farmers were very poor and the crop
meant everything."
Plumbing Thief Proves
To Be Student of the Law
William Ryan, itinerant, is evidently
a student of law, as well as a plumb
ing thief, for in police coure he ac
cused Sam Pavolik, 123 North Tenth
street, of trying to railroad him to the
penitentiary for the theft of some lead
pipe.
William was arraigned on the
charge of grand larceny. "Your hon
or, please," he spoke to Judge Kubat,
"I admit stealing the pipe, but most
firmly assert that it was not worth in
excess of $35, which, if your honor,
please, according to the laws of the
state, makes of the offense a misde
meanor, and not a felony." Pavolik
maintained that the pip was worth
$50.
The prisoner was bound over on the
charge preferred, but was assured of
the privilege of pleading guilty to
petit larceny when arraigned in the
district court.
Council to Consider
Cut in Levy Saturday
The city council will meet Saturday
morning tor consideration of the 1917
general levy. Butler offered a resolu
tion proposing the following: Gen
eral purpose fund, $U75,000i sinking
fund, $350,000; bond redemption fund,
$100,000. The sinking and bond re
demption funds in all probability will
be reduced $50,000 each.
More Than Half of

Five Speeders Are
Fined by Judge Kubat
Five speeders spoke their piece be

didn't mark their papers 100, but

Rev. T. J. Mackay of All Saints
Goes North for vacation
Six weeks at the Ojibway Islands,
Ontario, will constitute the vacation
of Rev. T. J. Mackay, pastor of All
Saints' Episcopal church. He left
Wednesday with Mrs. Mackay and
their daughter, Elinor. They may
also visit other points In the east
before returning.
The assistant paster of Alt Saints',
Rev. Robert S. Floekhart. will have
charge of services and answer all pas
toral calls during Key. Mr- Mackay s
absence,
"Corn has a few more days, and
then if we don't get rain It Is going to
go back fast." This seems to be the
general opinion of the railroad offi
cials of Omaha.
The Northwestern office sayt that
corn is all right as far as moisture in
the ground for some time yet, but
that the hot weather is having a bad
effect on the fertilization of the
plants, which are just now in the ailk
snd tassle stage. Cool weather and
a little rain would make a fine crop,
for the plants are exceptionally welt j
developed.
R. W. Lovelace ol the Burlington,
who came down through the northern
and western parts of the state last
Saturday, scoffs at the forebodings of
injury to the corn. He says that he
never saw such fine, well-developed
cornstalks, and no perceptible "fir
ing." He admits, however, that the
state as a whole would be greatly
benefited by a rain and cooler
weather.
Hottest Day of Year at Chicago.
Chicago, July 27. A period, of in
tense heat in the western plains
states unequaled in continuity and ex
tremely high temperature since 1901,
the year of the not winds in Kan
sas, according to the government
weather bureau here, probably will
continue through the remaining days
of July.
Chicago, which heretofore has been
laved in cooling breeses from the
lake, participated in the continental
climate today, when the winds ahlfted
and came over the city from the hot
plains. At 7 o'clock this morning,
Chicago, with a temperature of 84.
was the hottest point in the United
States, with the exception of Yuma.
Aris. The lowest temperature for
the night here was 82, the highest
minimum in the records of the local
weather bureau. Throughout the day
the temperature steadily mounted,
reaching 98 at noon, with the predic
tion that the thermometer would
register approximately 100 at $
o'clock.
T.vice in fifteen years a higher tern- ,
perature has been recorded 10J on
July 21, 1901, and 102 on July 4 and
S, 1911.
The present heat wave began late
in June and has continued with an
absence of rain, causing serious men

I. W. W. to Help Out Work
The Missouri Pacific would like to
impress two or three hundred of the
I, W. W.'s who are hanging out in
Omaha (or work on their roadbed be
tween Omaha and Kansas City. The
construction department had sur
plus of $5,000 last month that they
were unable to spend because they
could not get the men to do the work.
The only trouble with the I. W. W.'s.
the construction department says, is
that the pay is more important than
the work with them. However, any
one who ia willing to work will be
given an opportunity.
