Saturday morning, when i telegram to Ensign Condict an nounced the marriage of one-of his chief assistants, Miss Emma J. Hendricks who is in the east on a furlough.

JOHN W.TOWLE GETS BIG ENGINEERING JOB SMISMSMSB Omaha Steel and Bridge Man to Be Field Man for Great Shipbuilding Yards at Philadelphia. (Prom a Staff Correspondent.) Washington, Sept. 23. (Special Telegram.) John W. Towle, presi dent of the Omaha Structural Steel works of Omaha, was appointed field engineer of construction of the $20, 000,000 steel shipbuilding plant to be erected in Philadelphia. Mr. Towle is a cousin of Congressman Reavis of the First district. The congressman from the Lincoln district suggested to Mr. Towle after the latter had said that he did not propose to let this crisis in world affairs go by without doing his bit: "We will give you the endorsement of the Nebraska delegation for any place you want in your line." "That is just what I don't want," said Mr. Towle. "Politics is all right, but I want to do my bit without it." And after an interview with Admiral Capps of the shipping board Mr. Towle in the face of many candidates with strong political pull, was ap pointed to one of the biggest jobs of construction work growing out of the war. Three great steel shipbuilding plants have been decided upon, one at New ark, N. J., one at Bristol, but the big gest of all- the $20,000,000 plant at Philadelphia. Mr. Towle went to Omaha from Falls City, Neb, Compliment to Reavis. Speaking of Representative Reavis, a story of large political interest was printed in a local paper this morning relative to a new republican leader in the Sixly-sixth congress in view of the impaired health of Representative ames R. Mann of Illinois. Should Ir. Mann give up the minority lead ership, eight men are mentioned by the paper referred to as having quali fications for leadership as follows: Representatives Lenroot of Wiscon sin, Gillett of Massachusetts, Madden of Illinois. Longworth of Ohio. Mon- dell of Wyoming, Moore of Pennsyl vania, Kahn of California and Reavis of Nebraska. In view of the fact that Mr. Reavis is serving his second term, while the majority of the others mentioned have as many as ten terms to their credit, the designation of Mr. Reavis, even to be "considered," is a most de cided compliment.
