Man, OmaharTs Brother, Is
Manager of Huge Plantation
On South Sea Island
Ownecl by Dutch. .
From the far off isle of Java, Mr.
and Mrs. George Risch arrived in
Omaha early last 'week. They are
at the L. R. Pixley home, 1204 North
Twenty-seventh street, with the fam
ily of Mr. Risch's brother, P. A.
Risch, former captain in the A. E. 1,
who made the last lap of the long
journey, from Holland, with them.
A sister, Miss Louise, completed the
party.
The Javanese brother is manager
of the Bolang estate, the largest free
hold possession of the Maatschapprj
Exploitation syndicate, directing the
vast holdings oi tne laie carou oauu.
Covers 56,000 Acres. .
Th nlantation extends over 56,000
acres, much of it still virgin Jungle,
and includes in its population 30.0(H)
native Malay workmen, homes for
whom are furnished by the company.
Schools and a hospital for the na
tives are also provided.

"In Java we suu use omy iu;av

fairly good English.
Are Fluent Linguists.
He and his wife, who went from
Holland to Java 12 years ago, are
fluent linguists. They speak Oer

tive Javanese tongue.
"We must be able to do so on ac
count of the varied national interests
held in Java," he explained.
The Risches live in Batavia, 36

Holland. It is an up-to-date city
with an European population of

Omaha Girl, Wed in China,
Returns Home for Visit
MR, MRS. CV H
iviniiQiiniiorrjrjOQwQTOlu r
Two years ago an Omaha miss
accompanied her parents on a
journey to Shanghai, China, her
father going to take a federal ap
pointment in the service of the
United States. While seated on the
deck of a Pacific liner, musing on
the home folks she had left behind,
she hummed:
"My bonnie lies over the ocean,
my bonnie lies over the SJ3."
She did not then realize that the
words which thus came idly .to her
fancy might have in truth been said
a few weeks later.
The young woman was then Es
ther Connolly, daughter of Dr. and
Mrs. J. P. Connolly, Potter apart
ments, Tliirty-third and Farnam
streets. She is now Mrs. C. F. Wol
siffer and is expected in Omaha
from China Sunday morning with
her husband.
Dr. Connolly went to China two
years ago to take the post of clerk
of the United States court of China.
A few days after his arrival in
Shanghai his predecessor. Earl B.
Rose, gave a farewell dinner, to
which he invited the Connolly's, and
boo huts are put up for the natives,
whose life is exceedingly primitive.
Vivid impressions of America, its
modern conveniences, thfck difference
in climate and mode of life, are
voiced by the couple.
"It is very much pleasanter for the
women in this country than any
place else in the world," Mrs. Risch
believes.
Her chief desire before she re
turns to the far east is to inspect
one of the model kitchenette apart
ments of which she has been told.
"I can't imagine what it is like,
these beds which disappear into the
walls and kite hens-in-the-wall. I
must see them."
They brought to their sister-in-law,
Sirs. P. A. Risch, who was
formerly Miss Lola Pixley, some
beautiful marabou feathers to be
converted into a fan. Marabou
feathers are plucked in much the
same way as ostrich feathers and the
work furnishes another thriving in
dustry in Java, they say.
The sister, Miss Louise Risch.
who came from Gose, Holland, not
so tar trom the present dwelling place
of a Mr. Hohenzo'.lern, will remain
in Omaha. She is now attending
the ungraded room at Cass school,
presided over by Miss Rose Bern
stein. -
Mr. and Mrs. Risch will make the
return to Java as they came, via
New York and Holland, whence they
sail through the Mediterranean for
home. j

The news yon find in The Evening Bee is distinct
and different from that you read in The Morning
Bee and vice versa. s "
The Policies Are Different
The Morning Bee specializes in state and national news, in market and
financial reports, comment and gossip carried by Associated Press, Chi
cago Tribune-Omaha Bee leased wires and special telegraph and cable
from every part of the world. ;
The Evening Bee specializes in local news and in entertaining features'?!
The best features and the most important news are in both.
ft But the emphasis is different.
1j Not only the most important local news is in The Evening Bee, but the
humor, the women's affairs, the human interest of daily happenings in
and about Omaha are there. .
The Morning Bee carries important local news but places emphasis on
the big news from everywhere politics, trade, conventions, agriculture
and the like. '
The Two Are Not the Same
The difference is so marked that there is enjoyment in reading both.
Many Omaha men and women read The Bee;Only both Morning and
Evening and like. it.
