RAISE CROPS IN STREETS
ThorOuEhf@res Used, However,, Are
Those Not Yet Brought
to Grade.

Street Commissioner j. B. Hummel Is
having a busy time with suburban garden
ers and agriculturists who have prepared
to grow potatoes, onions and even corn in
the streets OF Omaha. This isn't as bad q
commentary on the trafic OF the city as al
FIRST appears, for the streets in question are
some In the remote suburbs that have been
dedicated to the city. but not yet brought
TO grade.
Last July the council authorized the
Board of Public Works to clear West
Martha street of all Instructions, but when
the city engineer and the street commits
sioner reached there on a tour Of inspection
they found an enterprising Swede had
plowed the ground and had corn standing
three feet tall all the way from Thirty
second to Fortieth. They hadn't the heart
to spoil the crop for him and let It 20, but
when the street commissioner found him
beginning the same thing this spring he
served notice that II a crop was started
there the city would send out a team and
pillow II up.
Similar orenses are reported from Hitch
cocks addition along Thirty-sixth street,
north Of Ohio. and from the tract south Of
Center street and west OF Forty-second, and
from the extreme OF Thirty fourth avenue.
Commissioner Humme is after them all, for
he doesn't propose that the city shall be
put to the trouble Of e~Jecting any more of
those enterprising individuals who use the
streets without authority for ten years and
then claim the ground by adverse posses
sion.

Don't Put This Matter off,
But Come In TOday.::-Buy
Now and Save haIf Of Your
Money.

A piano is a household necessity that
every man expects to buy for the folks
sometimes, but why not buy now? Per-
maps you had thought TO put It of until
next year. Thai might suit your con-
Venienee, but how about the folks? Don't
you know that Of all the things of utility
and o~rnamentation OF the house furnish
ing a plano stands first. What would home
be without a wife? Nit. What is the
pride OF a wife? Her children. What
VIII bring refinement, 'contentment and
love OF home TO the children? A plano.
when can you buy that piano for the least
dollars? At our closing out sale Of the
Hardman piano stock. where you can get a
standard made piano at exactly soc on the
dollar. Why not investigate? We bought
this stock Of IFS high grade pianos for spot
eash on our own oner and you can depend
on II We bought 'em right. So shall YOU.
We don't lose anything and you save a
snug amount. That's what we call a
square deal. We never pretend to sell
below cost, but we can and will save YOU
money. That's our. argument to induce

The New City Ordinance.

Members of the new city council are
now enjoying the same sweet attention
which the newspaper man endures the
year round. The other night they
voted onla new liquor ordinance, four
voting for il and four against. And
every man on the council is being
roundly abused for the way he voted.
1t made no difference which side he
took he had a cussing coming.
And that ordinance, by the way, is
nothing new. 1t was presented to the
old council about a year ago, soon
after the enactment of the IHurrell
search and seizure law. The old coun-
Gil read it and laid it on the table,
which was the same as killing it, It
was resurrected and sprung without
warning on the new council and sailed
through.

Large Ore Purchase Made.

Joplin News-Herald Saturday
The Lanyon Zinc company today
bought 400 tons of zinc at Neck City,
including the Sphinx, the Cole *
Ingersoll and the M. & [. The pur-
chase price is said to be S32 per ton
The same company also bought eight
cars at Oronogo, including the Morn
ing Star and other grade ores at the
same figure. The Lanyon company
appears to be securing the district for
ore and its agents are picking up
every bit that can be found at a price
not in keeping with the demands of the
producers pool. 1t is believed that
this is an indication that the Lanyon
company is determined to not close
down any of its furnaces if it can be
helped.

VIII Neif Was Convicted

Quite a number of lola people knew
Willis Neif, the Garnett boy who has
been in thetoils for some time on a
charge of robbing the mails while act
ing as mail clerk on the Southern
Kansas. A Topeka dispatch gives the
following report of the outcome of the
trial
Willis II. Nefi of Garnett, for many
years u mail clerk on the Southern
Kansas branch of the Santa Fe, be-
tween Kansas City and Wellington,
was convicted on three counts of rob-
bing the mail, in the federal court this
evening. Thelcase has been on trial
for four days.
The mails on the Southern Kansas
were ri6ed frequently for several days.
After spending much time working
decoy letters, the inspectors caught
Neif, who, up to that time, had been
considered one of the best men in the
service. Neff received a tip that the
inspectors we're after him the day he
was arrested, and he dumped the
money which he had stolen in a mai
sack. 1t was found when the sack
reached Armour station, Kansas City,
Kansas. Nef1 forgot to get rid OF
some marked half dollars, and they
were found in his pocket when he was
arrested. After his conviction to-
night, Judge Hook ordered Marshal
Crum to take him in custody. He was
lodged in;iail here to await sentence.
The penalty runs from one to five
years in prison on each count.

The strenuousness Of Competition.

Competition in this town is certainly
strong and there is possibility that
it may become unpleasant for the men
involved.
Friday afternoon T. B. Shannon
the north side hardware man, forcibly
elected w. A. Barber from his store
and later filed complaint against him
charging loud talk and a disturbance
of the peace. Both men handle sewing
machines and Barber conducts an
agency and store across the street
from Shannon in the Sleeper block.
Barber says he will fight the case his
story being thathe was not interfering.
He says he had sold a machine to a
| lady, she left town, he recovered the
machine but did not get to see her.
Thursday afternoon she called while
he was out. On his return his clerk
told him the lady had been in and,
being anxious to renew the deal foi
the machine, he hurried after her
overtaking her in front of Shannon's
She said she would look at Mr.. Shan
mons machines and Barber followed
her and her friend inside Mr.. Shan
non began displaying a machine ant
Barber claims ordered him out of tn
store. Barber refused to go unles

proceeded to do, the two rolling o

that Barber was interfering with hi

OF Interest to lola Fishermen.

Quite lot of argument has recently
been going on over the State as to the
possibility of raising bass and croppie
in still water ponds. Some assert
that it cannot be done, but the Olathe
Mirror makes a report that ought to
start the Iola.Ike Waltons to thinking
of securing pond in this neighbor-
hood and stocking it with fish.
The Mirror says; -Four years ago
the Olathe Boating and Fishing Club,
then vigorous organization, secured
about 700 bass and croppie minnows
which were placed in the pond. Since
then there has been very good sup
ply of bass and croppies for fisher
men, one expert from Kansas City
having taken thirty bass in one after
noon. The number of fish, however,
was matter of conjecture until the
long drouth of the past year dried up
the pond so that they were all attract
ed into narrow pool and when the
water froze the bass were killed by
thousands. Capt, Diehi recently
counted 300 large bass in one part of
the pond which had been frozen to
death. They were large, some of the
fish measuring nineteen inches long
and six inches in width of body and
weighing six pounds. They were per-
feet in every way and when the ponds
were full they were very game. 1t is
abundantly proven to Olathe fisher
men that bass can be successfully
grown in still water, and hereafter
great care will be taken to protect FISH
planted in ponds hereabouts"
