Juggles Tenpins Onto
Head of Other Pinboy
Oliver Black, pin boy at the Far
nam alleys, is all black.
Hit one delight consists in jug
gling tenpins. In fact, "Olivah" is
proficient in the art of tossing the
pins about with neither regard nor
respect for bystanders. His fellow
worker, Tonie Osborne, also colored,
chanced to be a "bystander" last night
when gentle Olivah preceded his
"juggling" act with a personal re
mark to Tonie:
"Now yo all pay me dat whole two
bits yo owe me, or yo'll see yoah
name on de list ah means de hospi
tal list."

red for the worst
Pv.vi, ..u f i ;
to come.
"An ef yo expects dat two bits,
yoah cxpexashuns is travlin' high,"
replied Tonie.
Oliver grew exceedingly angry. He
seems to have lost all his "puhsonal"
honor and respect, for suddenly,
without warning, he picked up two
tenpins and "juggled" them in Tonie's
direction. One of them took effect
on Tonie's head, inflicting two serious
scalp wounds. He was rushed to St.
Joseph's hospital where Dr. Romonek
attended his wounds.
"Ah ducked when ah saw 'era
comin,' but ah knows now ah didn't
duck soon enuf," said Tonie.
"Gentle" Oliver lost no time in
making his escape through the back
door.
Council Boosts Interest
Rate to Sell the Bonds
The city council will receive bids
on $400,000 of public improvement
bond until 10 o'clock this morning.
The commissioners recently adver
tised for bids on these bonds at A'A
per cent interest, but all of the bids
received were below par. This morn
ing the city dads had a conference
i with Omaha bankers and were ad
j tiscd the condition of the bond mar
' ket was such that it would be impos
sible to sell AYt pe.- cent bonds at par.
So the council passed a motion
boosting the interest rate, which it is
believed will make a sale at par pos
sible. Bids will be received on two issues.
One issue is for twenty-year bonds at
par, the interest not to exceed 5 per
cent. The ther issue is for five-year
bonds at par, the interest not to ex
ceed 5 per cent.
Thus bidders for the bonds will
make their percentage of interest
their bid. The council believes it
will beat the 5 per cet mark, as an
oral bid of 4)4 per cent has already
been made.
The bonds to be sold consist of
$200,000 sewer, $109,000 police. $50,000
park and $50,000 public comfort sta
tions.
Persistent Advertising Is the Road
to Success.

The Tailored Suits
At $19.50 to $75.00
HANDSOMER than ever and more varied.
The "style" of the suits center very
largely in the coat, for the reason that the
suit jackets vary in length from the finger
tips to below the knees.
The coats of the suits are designed to suit
all figures and are frequently cut in uneven
lengths, shorter in front than in the back, or
longer in the front and back and shorter on
the sides.
The most favored materials have been em
ployed in the making and the newest shades,
as well as black, are represented.

But Full Enough to Insure Grace
ful Swinging Character
At $19.50 to $125.00
THE collar and cuffs, new sleeve designs,
new belts and pockets are the noticeable
innovations in the correct fashions for Autumn
and Winter.
Plain fabrics are style leaders for gener
al wear and as the trend is toward liberal use
of fur, especially on collars and cuffs, many of these garments will be worn as well for semi
formal and formal occasions.
The coat sections hold a special exposition of the new season's coat fashions Saturday.
Priced, $19.50 to $125.00.
