Counties Waste Money on Bridges Engineers Charge Huge Struc tures' Built Without Proper Investigation. Br The Aaaoclated FrM. Lincoln, Jan. 20. Too many Ne braska counties have followed the ityle of building big bridges over draws and ravines, engineering spe cialists at the college of agriculture Mated today. They do not investi gate to find out if each large ravir.e really needs a 60 or 75-foot bridg-, the specialists state, or determine, in . :j-l.: 1 ,..U lon.-l ineir consiacrauuu, nuw muv.u iwj drains under the bridge. . "There are rough sections of the state where the county bridge fund ,:s putting the taxpayer in a sa 1 plight, but still they build bridges," declared the engineers. . "An example occurreed in Richardson county, re cently, however, when Mr. Relf, the county engineer, did take into con sideration some of the things men tioned in the foregoing and . the -s county was enabled to save money. "A ravine 21 feet deep, draining but 40 acres, had cut its way across ; the road and had been spanned with i a 62-foot wooden bridge which was a r .1 constant source ui c.xpciisc w m. : county. .Approaches had to be added from time to time as the washing continued. Soon the young canyon would have been eating its way across the farm above the road. Mr. Relf removed the old bridge and re placed it with box culvert four feet ....'

He also trevented further cutting of the ravine." . i ' : Attorneys Seek to Have ' Death Sentence Revoked '; Lincoln. Jan. 20. (Special.)

(Cp)fi.bi, nit, It Th. WhMiir K. kmium r-Mt t (.) Dick KcUted was incl nrd to ht sulky the next day; he avoided Ni nette and went oil by hitmctf on his motor bike. "H' ju.t in the mood to have an other accident," Margaret said, half in fun, half .eriou.ly. "Ninette, if he dor i it will be your fault." "llov absurd!" Ninette protested. She was annoyed; the liked Dick FcUted, but she had no inient-on of takuiK him seriously and did not like In-inn teated about him. Hut. though he stayed out all day, Duk turned up safely in the eve ning, and invited hmuelf to stay to dinner. "My dear boyl" Margaret said. "You know you re always welcome. Hut whit will your father say? You haven't been home for a weekl". "1 have. 1 went home this morn- insr and saw the auv-nor, D ck pro tested, "lie didn't seem at all over joyed to see me. and he made him self darned disagreeable " "Meaning that he mused to Rive ou any money, I suppose?" Dorothy stuck in. with a disagreeable little l.-lllt'll. Dirk flushed and walked out of the rnnm without answenne. ' "You shouldn't tease him, dear." Margaret said gently. "He really does have a very poor time at home. I know! It'a too bad, as he's the only son." A maid came into the room, bhe went over to Ninette. "A letter for you, please, miss." Ninette took it wonderingly, she was not used to receiving letters. She wondered if perhaps it was from Peter Nothajd; she broke the flap without much interest and glanced at the few lines, then her face changed and her color deepened. "Dear Miss Wheeler" Since Josh Wheeler's death Ninette had adopted his name. "He was like a father to me," she told Nothard defiantly when he ventured to protest. "And I'd rather have his name than anyone else's on earth." "Dear 'Miss Wheeler you were kind enough to say that you would come fo lunch with me one day in town. On my return here last night I found that I must go to Pans on urgent business and leave on Wednesday evening. Will you be land and keep your promise by lunching with me tomorrow at the Savoy at 1 o'clock. Yours very truly, "RANDAL CAVANAGH. Margaret was watching the girls face interestedly and when she looked up from the letter, asked an eager question. "Is it from you know, Ninette? "Yes, will, you read it?" She gave it into Margaret's hand. "Of course you must go I You can just catch the post if you write now, at once. Of course, you must go! How lovely 1 Aren't you excited? Margaret was far the more excited of the two. She loved romance, and imagined that she could see it every where in life. When her husband en tered the room she rushed to tell him the news; she was like an excited school girl. , , XT- ... "t rauanash has asked Ninette to lunch with him at the Savoy to morrow! Isn't it thrilling? What did I tell you? Arthur, wny are you looking so angry?" - Arthur Delay frowned. He looked across at Ninette. "You will not go, of course, he said. "Cavanagh ought to'know bet ter, after such a short acquaintance. I suppose because he is a millionaire he thinks he can do as he likes.' He looked at his wife and flushed rather self-consciously. "Peter would be the first to disapprove if he knew," he added lamely. "It's nothing to do with' Peter, Ninette answered quickly. Her eyes flashed; the mention of Nothard al ways seemed to aggravate her. "It s nothing to do with him at all, she said again. "I shall do as I like I shall certainly go." She went out of the drawing room with her head in the air. What was it to do with Peter Nothard where she went or with whom she lunched? She should do as she chose." ' CHAPTER XVIII. A Disappointment for Peter. She went straight to Arthur De lay's study and sat down at his desk. .... , Her hand shook a little as she wrote a brief reply to the million aire's letter. She read it through critically half a dozen times before she finally sealed it up and ad dressed the envelope. It was the first time anyone had asked hereout to lunch; the first lirni an vthimr reallv excitinsr had hannpned in her life. Her cheeks' burned as she thought of tomorrow. She wished she had clothes like Dorothy's; she wished she was beautiful; she wished oh, a thous and thingsl And then she turned with a start as the door opened be hind her and Arthur Delay came into the room. . He shut the door behind him and went straight oveV to where Ninette was sitting. He looked a little pale and there was a note in his voice that struck Ninette uncomfortably when he spoke. , "You "will not go tomorrow, Ni nette, will you?" i She stared at- him in blank as tonishment. "Not go?" she echoed feebly. "That is what I said. Cavanagh is not the sort of man you ought to be seen about with. You are only a child and he is a middle-aged man with a reputation that is not too good. Ninette, if I ask you" He broke off as he saw her growing bewilderment. - "But he dined here," she stam mered. "He is your friend. I thought I thought you liked him. You talked so much about him." "I do like him as a man. But as a friend for you What have you said to him, Ninette?" He glanced down, too, at her own handwriting. "Randall Cavanagh, Esq., The Savoy Hotel, ' London." "I have said I will go," she an swered slowly. His eyes flamed with sudden an ger. "You shall not I I will not allow it! Ninette" He broke off with a stilled ex clamation as Ninette started to her feet; she was quite pale and trem bling in every limb; her voice shook as she said breathlessly: 1 "What do you mean? " What has it got lo da with you? Ot roure 1 shall go oh, of courte 1 shall go!" She caught the letter up and ran pt him out of the room; her heart was beating wildly and she was con. icious of sudden (ear, tKuph why she did not know;-he met Margaret in the hall and caught her arm, ' "Come to the post ith mf, th taid urgently. "I've written come to the post with me." "Have you accepted.'" Margaret demanded. "Yes." "Good child!" then the touched. "Arthur will be angry, thouijh," the taid reflectively. Ninette flushed crimson. "I don't tee what it hat got to io with him, she taid defensively. . Margaret pursed up her lips. "Well, neither do I, now I come to think about it," she admitted. Ninette looked apprehensively at Arthur Delay when the went into dinner that night; she rather dreaded meeting him again, though he did not know why. But he teemed very much the same as usual md he tmiled in friendly fashion when he met her eyes. "I'm a fool!" Ninette told lerelf with a sense of shame. "As if he really caret what I do! I must have been mad to think he did!" But the vague sense of uneasiness retarned to her again and again dur ing the evening, and the managed to slip off to bed that night without laying good night to him. She lay awake for a long time in the darkness,, her thoughts all with the morrow; it all seemed like a dream to her. She had only vaguely heard of the Savoy; she had no con ception what it would be like, al though she was almost painfully ex cited about it all; when the morning came she wished she had not ac cepted the invitation; she had not accepted the invitation; she was ter ribly nervous; she tried to make her self look as attractive as possible, but to her critical eyes she had never looked so plain. "I expect he'll be ashamed to be seen with me," she told Margaret, who came hovering sympathetically round her. "What is the Savoy like? Are people very smart there?" "Some of them, but not everyone! And, at least, if your clothes are not the latest, you look a lady," Mar garet said kindly. Ninette was not sure if it was a compliment or not, and she made a little grimace at her pale reflection as she turned away from the glass. "I don't suppose he'll ever ask mc again," she thought hopelessly as she went downstairs; then, as she reach ed the hall, she stopped with a ttiiWd ruU'tuiion at !. t4w Peter Nothard standing there. lie evidently h! just motored doa rom l.om1ii. tor . oi the big cot she had elien seeq be. fore, and he held hi hat in his hand. "Ninette! There was unfeigned pleasure in hi voice. "Wlut luck! I was hoping to md you. t tak en an alternuou oil, and you're coming up to theater with tne." He held out hit hand, but Ni nette did not Difcr her on. "Hut I I ran'l," the taid at Ut blankly. "Can't you see I'm jut ready lo go out?" I'm going to luneh with someone." ."Well, hut ou ran put them off if they're friends ot Margaret's," he taia nanny.
