Ire District Court.
After the trial the writ was
made peremptory'and ordered the
attendants to fix the bond at

sstien at not less than $50 per

sppeal was taken to the Supreme
Court and for want of jurisdiction
The case was transferred to the
Court of Appeals.
This Court after an exhaustive
review of the law applying to
cases of this nature, concluded
their opinion as follows:

Lee Addition Lot Sale.

We ar" nw prepared =, cff-r
lots in the Lee Addition at yer,
attractive figures and on the most
reasonable terms.
The Lee Addition is one of the
best additions to our little CITY.
and is so conveniently located be-
tween the business part of town
and the Rock Island shops that
1t will be built up very fast.
We have been at work for
quite awhile to get this beautiful
addition ready to offer for sale.
and now fee: proud of same.
We are authorized to sell these
lots at 10 per cent down and bal
ance in nine equal notes with
eight per cent interest until paid.
We know that anyone getting
anything like reasonable wages
can buy one of these lots and
build himself home to live in.
Do this right now.
Anyone who has a family and
cares enough for them to want a
home will make a better citizen
by owning his own home. This
is recognized fact and is being
regarded so by companies hiring
men. The RAILROAD companies
would rather employ men who
own their homes than transient
men.
We hope that all having a warm
place In their bosoms for "Home,
Sweet, Home" will take advan-
tage of this opportunity and start
now.
We wall take pleasure IN show

I' Is with enexpressihle sorrow
that the death of this estImable
lady Is chrOnicled. 1t occurred
In Nashville. on Monday after she
mad undergone light operation,
fr"u he effects of which she
died 1t was only few days ago
that Prof. A. S. Dale and his
wife visited Winfield and she
was in splendid health. This
writer has known her from her
girlhood. She was the en-
oodlment of all those splendid
traits OF charactesr that mark the
perfect woman nobly planned.
10 her Father. an honored and
deeply loved Comrade. and his
estimable wife and their family.
and to her talented husband goes
forth a deep, wordless and in.
expressibly tender sympathy, born
OF long years of acquaintance and
companionship. May He who
binds up broken hearts and
comforts in life's burdensome
sorrow, give to heir striker
spirits that consolation which is
beyond all human sympathy. The
Shreveport Times gives this
succinct account of her biography:
Mrs. Alice Grosjean Dale was
born in this city April 10, 1874.
and was reared here. She was "a
years and 10 months old at the
time of her death. She was
married here several year ago to
Professor A. S. Dale. a professor
in the public schools and soon
thereafter moved away. She
was talented in evolutionary art
and was preparing tC advance
herself in this respect Her
girlhood was spent here and she
has scores of friends who were
shocked by her untimely end.
She is survived by her father,
mother and husband and four
brothers and two sisters, George,
Frank. Martin and Leon, and
Mrs. Agnes Hendricks, and Mrs.
Matte Grace Pate, all with the
exception of her husband of this

Millionaire Grandfather offers Big
Reward and Prosecutes Vigor-
Gus Search, but to No
Avail

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Dec 16.-An
empty grave in the Great Falls cem-
etery and a sorrowing family, whose
distress great wealth seems incapable
of allcviating. are the only reminders
of. a gruesome crime perpetrated on
Thanksgiving evening. The body Of
the baby grandson Of w. c. Conrad,
a multimillionaire, was stolen from its
tomb after lying undisturbed for year,
and the rihed caaket was left in d
conspicuous place by the cemetery
gate.
As days went by and no demand for
ransom was made theory after theory
fell TO the ground. and now after three
weeks of ceaseless effort by public Of
fcers and private Investigators, during
which public offers of a reward for the
return of the body have been made, the
mystery is more battling than ever.
Harfield Conrad the father OF the
dead child, has worn himself out in
the trying search and has taken his
wife, in a state of nervous collapse,
TO California to escape the haunting
memory of the violated grave,
The search is being kept up under
the direction of the grandfather and no
expense is spared to recover the baby
form Of which the parents have been
twice bereft.

REASONS FOR PROPOSED
NAVY'S REORGANIZATION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Secretary
Meyer was before the house naval COM
mittee for extended interrogation today.
The line of inquiry was entirely on
the subject of the secretary's recon-
mendatons for the reorganization of
the navy department. The two things
which the secretary asked in the way
OF legislation were the abolition of the
bureau of equipment and the shifting
Of various amounts in appropriations
from one bureau to another.
The secretary explained in detail why
the bureau of equipment might we'll be
disposed Of and its duties distributed
among other bureaus.
The equipment bureau had been nee
essary, he said, in the days of wooden
ships, with their great miscellaneous
equipment, but not in the days Of the
modern steel ships.
Questions of membets of the COM
mittee indicated no manifest hostility
to the secretary's recommendations, but
great interest was shown in ascertain
ing his opinion as to the probable out

interest of economy, and the reading
had not been concluded when the

PROPOSAL TO CHANGE
DATE OF PRESIDENTS
INAUGURATION DEBATED

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The Oft
discussed proposal to change the date
of Inauguration of the president of the
United States from March 4 to later
date was before the house committee
on the election of the president today

Commissioner Mcfarland of the Dis
trict of Columbia was before the COM
mittee today and for an hour or more
sought to show why the date should
be changed. Mr.. Mcfarland was kept
busy replying to questions of several
members who pertinently wanted to
know If the Inauguration was not
largely a District of Columbia affair,
in which the remainder of the country
took no part except to pay high prices
for hotel accommodations. and for
grandstand seats along Pennsylvania
avenue.
The sentiment Of nearly all the COM
mittee is said to favor a change in the
date.
The senate committee on privileges

SPENDS $4,000
YEARLY; UNHAPPY
MRS. BROKAW OCCUPIES WIT
NESS STAND AGAIN
BROTHER OF PLAINTIFF SAYS
HUSBAND WAS CRUEL
Statistics. Some of Figures Being
Unique, Play Prominent Part in
Divorce Suit of Wealthy New
York Couple

NEW YORK, Dec. 16.-How. to be
unhappy on 100000 a year was the bur
den of testimony introduced at the
Brokaw divorce trial.
Mrs. Mary Blair Brokaw. as evasive
in her answers as ever, was on the
stand part of the time for the seventh
consecutive day. she was followed by
her brother. J. Bullard Blair. who said
that w. Gould Brokaw had treated the
plaintiff cruelty and that she was jus
tined i'm asking for a separation with
SEQ, 900 a year alimony.
Statistics figured prominently-rathe
UNIQUE figures compiled concerning
Mrs Brokaw's refusal to answer ques-
tions and elaborate lists of eXpendi-
lures i'm her behalf. As compiled by
her husbands lawyer, in the hearing
she has evaded las important ques-
tions.
other figures introduced by Brokaw's
lawyer read like those at the Howard
Gould suit as side lights on how a
woman of wealth can spend $4,000 a
wear. Corsets cost $3.50 pair and for
candy Mrs. Brokaw at one time spent
S175.
1t developed that Walter Byford
Brokaw's private secretary, much
sought by the plaintiffs lawyer is in
Europe and cannot be subpoenaed.
Evades Lawyers oestions
John f. Mcintyre. counsel for w.
Gould Brokaw. has complained he was
unable to get direct replies to the
questions he asked Mrs Mary Blarl
Brokaw in the latter's suit against her
husband.
"On one occasion I asked her sixty
nine questions before / got respon-
sive answer" the lawyer declared.
A mathematical problem was set Tor
Mrs Brokaw when she was called To
the stand today. She testified BrokaW
spent 10000 on her during the hrst
wear of their married life and was
asked to figure up the items Which
made up the total.
As she enumerated her engagement
ring. which she said cost $1,000. and
which she did not get until after her
marriage. a diamond necklace which
cost $4,000 and other articles for use ana
ornament. the lawyer, with paper In
his hand apparently containing a list
of the articles, checked off the items.
Counsel for Brokaw wants waiter
Rvford, secretary to Mr.. Brokaw, 10
testify that Brokaw actually sent the
numerous .telegrams to Mrs. Brokaw.

HALLS INSTEAD PRIVATE

halls as a substitute for private halls
were advocated by Mrs. Joseph T.

tective association, in an address at

committee of the association of COM

dangers of the private dance halls,
where supervision was unknown.
