Birds in Winter.

From the Woman's Home Companion. %.
To see all our birds in their winter home.
we should have TO travel from the middle
states down to the Argentine Republic. We
could see great many, though. by making
a midwinter trip to the gulf states. In
Florida, for instance. we should find enor-
nous fiocks of robins whirling through the
trees and alighting here and there to feed
upon the berries of the china tree and holly.
Many birds We should find only along the
coast, and many others we should have to
search for In the silent cypress swamps OF
Louisiana and Mississippi. The herons love
the solitude of these swamps, where IN tho
numerous springs and streams they find the
fish and frogs on which they feed.

ROMINE MAKES HARD FIGHT
Mitchell. Neb.. Man Accused Of Fraud
Employs nm Army of AttOr-

GERING, Neb., Sept. 12.-(Special.l-Dr.
James s.. Romine, who was appreh ended
in Massachusetts, and brought here for
trial on three complaints filed in connec-
tion with the big department store failure
at Mitchell in this county, has employed
three lawyers here to look after his side
of the case-Judge F.. G. Hamer Of KeGrney,
James L. Mcintosh and W. p. Miles Of
Sidney. The prosecution will be handled
by Ed A. Mann, county attorney, @. w.
Gardner and F.. A. Wright, all Of this city.
The First National bank of ChadrOn Is
interested in the matter to the extent of
S11 900 and is represented here by Judge
A.. w. Critics. A brother Of Romine is here
from Lincoln and Mrs.. Romlne accompanies
her husband so far as permitted to do so
by the officers. Besides these. there is
a swarm OF interested parties from the
Wholesale houses, and it is stated that the
mercantile agencies will be represented
by attorneys In the way Of pushing prose-
cution. AS there is over $40, 900 involved
in the aggregate losses, it will be a very
hard fought case. The defendant presents
a very different appearance than when he
was doing business in this county. He for
merly wore wore a full beard and now Is
smooth shaver and would be scarcely rec
ognized by those who knew him well.
DR.. Romine is in the county jail,
guarded by two detectives who arrived here
from Omaha last night. Rumor has It that
the detectives are sent here for the purpose
of preventing any attempt at escape, the
Jail being a rather primitive concern, and
numerous escapes therefrom having been
made in the past.
