Dan Cupid Slips a Double Noose Over
the Boss and His Attractive Stenographer
Little Matrimonial Surprise
Party Is Sprung by Wilbur
L. Burgess.
No wonder Cupid smiles! The
chair at the stenographer's desk is va
cant and the boss ts missing, too.
Wilbur L. Burgess, president of the
Burgess-Granden company, and Miss
Wilhelmina Stadter, 1916 Douglas
street, were quietly, oh so quietly,
married in Omaha last Saturday
night. Then quietly, oh so quietly,
they motored to the railway station
and fled from the curious gaze of the
multitude and will be gone for some
two weeks.
Miss Stadter has been stenographer
to Mr. Burgess for the last three or
four years. Even some of the closest
associates of the pair did not suspect
that a romance existed there.
But it did exist, for auietlv the ar
rangements were made with the Rev.
M. V. Higbee ot the worth rresDy-
terian church, and quietly the pair
slipped to the court house on Satur
day and obtained the license. Then,
when darkness had fallen, just to
elude their friends, the couple mo
tored to the home of the Rev.
Mr. Higbee, at 2011 Maple street,
and there the ceremony was per
formed.
Just exactly where the couple is
spending the honeymoon at present
not known to umana acquaint
ances, but the railway tickets were
good for Chicago and Minneapolis.
It is confidently expected ttiey win
be back in Omaha within two or
three weeks, when they will be at
home at 2964 Harris street.
To the license clerk at the court
house Mr. Burgess gave his age as
over twenty-one, and Miss Stad-
ter's age was given as "over
eighteen."
Wilhelmma stadter lias uvea in
Omaha for the last fifteen years with
her aunt, Mrs. J. T. Blair, 1916 Doug
las street. She is the daughter of J.
G. Stadter, formerly of Larson, la.,
but more recently of Denver.
Mr. Burgess is president of the
Burgess-Granden company of Omaha,
vice president of the Omaha Manu
facturers' association, an active mem
ber of the Commercial club, the Ad
club and many other organizations in
the city.

for Debt He Owes
South Side Store
Tust as his hard luck tale was about
to be taken in as fact by Police Judge
Reed and court officials on the soutn
Side, an ill-fated letter, declaring his
identity opposite to his first infor
mation, dropped from his coat pocket
to the tloor ot the court room, result
ing in conviction and jail sentence.
Jessie Bogue, who was brought into
court for owing a bill for $9 at a local
store, declared in defense that he was
a stockman who was expecting
money from a brother who lived in
the north side.
The letter was from the brother
and when read by the judge was
found to contain an emphatic re
fusal on the part of the brother to
loan any money.
Judge Reed sentenced the man to
thirty days in the county jail.

been bearish on December and May
corn, but they have changed and now
they are predicting that for these
months the cereal will be much high
er. Some of them arc even talking
dollar corn, due to the fact that crop
reports indicate an enormous short
age throughout the entire southwest
and in most of the corn-growing area
east of the Mississippi river.
Omaha grain dealers assert that the
conditions of two years ago are cer
tain to be repeated and that with the
splendid corn crop that is assured for
Nebraska this market will be flooded
with buyers from the south, the
southwest and the east. At this time
cash corn on the Omaha market is
selling at 79;481 cents per bushel,
an advance of several cents during
the last week.
PRICE UP 1 TO 2 CENTS!
Another red letter day was marked
up at the Omaha Grain exchange.
Wheat advanced 1 to 2 cents and sold
at $1.46(0)1. 49)4. Corn, however, un
der heavy offerings, ruled from '
cent lower to Vi cent up, selling at
79!-i8 cents. The first of the
new oats put in an appearance and
its excellent quality forced the mar
ket up Yi cent to 1 cent. The ruling
price was 424-? cents per bushel.
There has seldom been a day when
the demand for wheat for export was
greater. During the early morning
300,000 bushels were sold for export
through New York, and a little later
150,000 bushels through gulf ports. It
all goes out carrying the Omaha in
spection, obviating the necessity of
any further inspection. The wheat
receipts were 178 carloads and the
shipments almost as great.
A feature of the Omaha option
wheat market was the fact that New
York buyers were taking the grain
for export at prices 9V5 cents above
the Chicago price, for December de
livery, this price being on the basis
of $!.47'j per bushel for cash wheat.
