picture was snapped in Omaha yesterday just before they causrht an
early train for Windom, Minn., where magic words from the lips of Miss
Harvey s brother, Kev. Frederick Harvey, will seal their romance of more

raced with them from Omaha to

and wife today and crystalize
their dream of childhood days back

station in Omaha, Monday night,
when Miss Harvey, now little more
than 50, alighted from the Overland

j Tecumseh Undergoing
City Water Shortage
Tecumseh, Neb., June 7. (Spe
cial.) lecumseh is experiencing
water shortage, but there will be re
lief within the next 10 days. The
city operates the water plant and the
several wells furnishing the supply
is running low. There is hardly any
water in the reserve reservoirs or
standpipe. To safeguard against a
serious fire, arrangements have been
made to pump into the mains direct
from the Nemaha river drainage
channel.
The contractors at work on the
filtering plant, which is. to furnish
treated water from the channel, ex
pect to have the new plant ready to
turn over to the. city in about 10
days. This plan will supply an
abundance of water, it is thought, it
being possible to pump 400 gallons
a minute from the channel.
