several times repeated, but each time re-

In a hollow square around the gallows, and
when the procession arrived one corner of

in front were the steps which would lead
him to a sudden and disgraceful death,
and that death It was in his power to
avoid-so easily. For an instant he hesi-
tated and then the tempting offer was
pushed aside forever. The steps are
mounted, the young hero stands on the
platform with hands tied behind him. the
black hood is slipped over his head, the
moose is adjusted. a spring Is touched. the
drop falls, the body swings and turns vio-

able. OF Just such material was the south

brave lad seemed a dreadful act, but, as
General Sherman said to the citizens OF
Atlanta, war is a cruelty which cannot
be refined"
Mr.. Bell Justly says "of such material

the exterior OF the bungalow. there are two
styles of exterior that seem 20 be made
especially for 1t. They are the shingled
wall and the rough cast cement wall. The
shingles which are most often used can be
laid In a number of ways that will break
the monotony Of the plain shingled wall.
The style used should be governed some
what by the general style of the house.
A pleasing way is to place the shingles
(on the walls) alternately eight and two
inches to the weather. This requires no
more shingles than to place them in regular
rows of five inches to the weather and
appearance is both original and attractive.
A cement exterior on the two-story bunga-
low looks the best when only carried one
story high with the gables and dormers
shlngled. To carry the ement wall up into
the second story gives too massive an ap-
pearance for a bungalow.
The design on this page is a good example
of the two-story bungalow, since 1t con-
tains most of the desirable features OF a
bungalow and many co~nveniences not al
ways found in large homes. There Is no
reason why a bungalow should not be just
as convenient in every way as a full two.
story house. The exterior wall of a bunga-
low looks the best If not too regular; out
side chimneys, bay windows. oriol win
dows, etc, help to break up the wall sur
face and give it character. Windows placed
in groups always look well in a bungalow,
or, in fact, in any style of house when they
are properly designed and located One of
the good points about the design shown on
this page is the regularity of the plan on
both floors. The proper size of rooms and
the proper location of partitions with refer
ence to those above, has considerable to do
with the cost of a house OF any style.
1t is always best to have as many Of the
second story partitions over the first story
partitions as practicable. Another point to
bear in mind. hat rooms which are an odd
Omaha daily bee., 1908-12-20

Properly speaking, the original bungalow
is but one story high, with a low roof,
so low that only a small attic
space can be used under 1t. Vari-
Gus conditions and circumstances which
sometimes confront the homebuilder has
brought to the front what is known as the
two-story bungalow. The two-story bun
galow is not unlike what we have hereto
fore called the story and one-half house,
the principle difference being that a low
spreading effect is emphasized, giving it
a bungalow appearance, but at the same
time providing considerable space on the
second floor for bedrooms. Dormers and
low gables are used to the best advantage
in obtaining light, air and increasing the
size of the bed rooms.
There is probably no style of inexpen-
sive home which affords such a variety
in designs as the two-story bungalow.
The first story is subject to all the variety
Of designs permitted in one-story bunga-
lows and the second story gives the de-
signer opportunities which cannot be had in
a one-story house. One of the principal
advantages of the two-story bungalow is
a saving of space. Everyone's lot does not
permit of spreading the bungalow out
enough to include ali the bedrooms desired
on one floor. Then, too, the two-story
bungalow is cheaper to build when a GER
tain number of rooms Is desired. The one
story bungalow is usually more expensive
to build than one would think from its
simple, even sometimes rustic appearance.
Rustiticy in buildings does not always
mean low cost. One Of the principal char
acteristics OF all bungalows is a spreading
roof, having considerable projection at the
caves. This projection should never be
less than two and one-half feet. On the
other hand, it should never be carried to
the extreme, which suggests a mans hat on
a small boy, the exact projection Of the caves

must have money. Why. after three years
absence, does Antony suddenly ntoin Cleo
patra? The secret Of their relations lies in
the answer which the ancient historians
fail 20 offer. The simple truth OF the mat
ter was that Antony wanted Egypt, and not
the beautiful person of it's queen. He
meant by his dynastic marriage with her
to establish a Roman protectorate of the
valley OF the Nile and to be able to use
for his Persian campaign the treasures Of
the kingdom Of the Ptolemies.
at that time. after plundering other re-
gions Of the orient by the politicians Of
Rome. there was but one state with rich
reserves of precious m~etals-namely,
Egypt.
Caesar already understood this. His
mysterious and obscure relations with Cleo
patra had certainly for their ultimate mo-
tive and reason this political necessity. And
Antony. marrying Cleopatra, probably only
applied more or less shrewdly the ideas
that Caesar had held.
"As to Cleopatra, her government was
menaced by strong internal opposition, the
causes Of which are i'll known. Marrying
Antony. she gathered about her throne to
protect It the Roman legions. Antony, the
heir of Caesar, proposed to conquer Persia
Therefore he married Cleopatra, whom 1t
was said at Rome Caesar himself had
wished to marry. The conquest Of Persia
was the ultimate motive of all his policy,
the supreme explanation of his every act.
I'VE see them both then embark upon a
political alliance-an alliance, however,
which by the power of Cleopatra was soon
to undergo a change. Here is the most in
teresting part Of the story.
Cleopatra sought to have Antony aban-
don his Persian campaign to accept openly
the kingdom of Egypt, and to add to this
Egypt the Roman provinces, Africa and
Asia, and leave Italy to its dismal, declin-
ing destiny.

details are not governed by rule, but should
be left to a competent designer.
The bungalow should always include at
least three things; a large porch, a large
living room and a large fireplace. You will
notice that the size is emphasized in each
instance. The bungalow should suggest
generosity in all ITS details; even the front
door should be unusually wide and it is
needless to say that no window should be
less Than three feet wide and from four
to five feet wide in the living room. Ar
ranging the stairway to ascend from the
living room is always permissible in a two
story bungalow, although 1t can be separ-
ated from the living room and placed in a
hall by itself, If desired. The dormers on
a bungalow should be low and broad with
considerable projection to the caves. The

divided. There are a number of designs
which look well. The division can be made

ANOTHER ILLUSION DESTROYED
Cleopatra Likened to n HussY Who
Fascinated Antony with
Her Pile.

Close on the heels Of the effort to
prove Paul Revere's ride a poetic dreem
comes Sig Guglielmo Ferrero, the cmi-
nent Italian historian with the goods
to show that Cleopatra Egypt's sreat
queen, instead of being a beauty in her
day. was an ordinary locker, and that
Antony was fascinated more by her coin
than her looks. Lecturing in Columbia
university on Antony and Cleopatra"
last Tuesday. Signor Ferrero said of
C~leopatra's beauty:
w do not see the countenance of a
Venus, delicate, gracious. smiling. Her
face is fleshy, with a powerful aquiline
nose. 1t is the face OF a woman Nell on
in years, ambitious, imperious.
"But beautiful or ugly is of little con-
Germ when one studies her relations with
Antony in the spirit of criticism and
finds that the passion of love had small
place therein"
The lecturer began by comparing the
ancient conception Of Cleopatra, as
Plutarch describes her. with that of
moder poets, including Shakespeare
who had localized her.
There Is in our way OF thinking
said Signor Ferrero, IA vein OF ro-
manticism wanting In the ancient mind.

SAM ADLER is TURNED LOOSE
No statute Covering the OHense
Charged and Court Re-
leases Him.

Sam Adler, convicted last spring of re-
ceiving stolen property, was released from
bonds Saturday morning by Judge Sears
on the ground there is no statute covering
the offense of which the jury found him
guilty. ~ 'y
Adler was indicted by the grand jury on
the charge of receiving about $50 worth of
property stolen from a store in Florence.
The jury after being out for some time re-
turned a verdict Of guilty. but fixed the
value of the property at less than $35.
Adler's attorneys at once filed a motion to
discharge the defendant on the ground that
the statute omits to provide a penalty for
receiving stolen property valued under $S5.
The case was argued several months ago
and Saturday morning Judge Sears entered
an order sustaining the motion and dis
charging Adler from custody.
