ton. at least one large cereal mill has de-
cided to locate In Idaho. and others are
contemplating erecting mills there. while
the incentive to produce cats adapted to
milling has had an influence which may
result in the establishment this year OF an
extensive experiment station system in thai

a good projection to the caves, not less
than two feet, and three feet Is better. This
keeps most Of the rain off of the walls,
except when high winds are blowing. The
constant contraction and expansion of the
logs during different seasons Of the year
makes 1t difficult to keep the joints tight
through.
Stained shingles are used for the exterior
Of bungalows more than any other material.
Brown 10 the favorite color. There are
many ways in which the shingles can be
laid to give a more attractive appearance
to tine wall than a plain shingled surface.
The roof of q bungalow is a very impor-
tant part Of its design. 1t should always
be low and can be either hipped OF have
gabled ends. The gabled roof with the front
slope extending over the porch is the most
popular. The roof can have a dormer or
not as desired. The advantage OF having
a dormer for interior lighting and ventilst-
ing of the attic is at once evident.
II the bungalow Is for summer use only,
It can be built on stone or brick piers with
a small barrel cellar. but il for use the
year around a full basement Is to be pre-
ferred, since the house will be much warmer
and a full basement costs but little more
than a basement under only part OF the
house, The entire cost Of the excavation
and foundation OF any house is not a large
item compared with the total cost OF the
finished house. TIE cost of a bungalow built
for a northern climate is about the same as

CHANCE FOR c, N. HITCHCOCK
Word from Congressman May Get
Balloon Races Started Here.
so COMMERCIAL CLUB BELIEVES
Requests VIII he Sent TO the Repre-
sentative In Washington to Look
Out for the Interests of
This City.

All the big balloon races will start from
Omaha II Omaha can furnish the hydrogen
gas, so the Commercial club believes. 1t
made public Saturday correspondence which
showed the international races started from
St. Louis In 1907 would have started from
Omaha had not the Treasury department
Of the United States ruled that the signal
corps at Fort Omaha could not sell gas to
private parties wishing TO initiate balloons.
The managers OF the big contest wanted
to start from Omaha, believing the city to
be the best located spot on the map from
which 10 launch the gas bags. Letter after
letter was exchanged, but the illuminating
gas company does not make q product
which Is suited to %aeronautics and when the
entrymen for the races applied TO the signal
corps at Fort Omaha for the hydrogen gas
the Treasury department was telegraphed
and It was held the War department was
not authorized to furnish nor sell the gas
TO anyone not engaged in work for the
United States army.
Since then many private parties have COM
munioated with Omahans and attempted to
arrange to start balloons from Omaha. but
have always met with the SINE answer:
Plenty OF gas around Omaha for most
purposes, but none for aeronautics."
Accordingly the Commercial club has
written to the chief OF the signal service
bureau OF the War department. and to the
senators and representatives from Nebraska
asking that a clause be inserted in the
signal service bill, now before Congress-.
authorizing the corps at Fort Omaha to sell
hydrogen gas 10 anyone desiring to start a
balloon from Omaha. As It seems a matter

What is a Bungalow"

Tho question Is sometimes asked What
Is a bungalow So enormously Is the
name applied to various kinds OF homes
that the average person has some doubts
as to the correct application of the term
Correctly speaking, a bungalow Is a low
rooted, one-story home, with the rooms all
arranged as one floor. For the accom-.
mediation of those who still adhere to the
plan OF a home on two floors. but ct the
same time advise the low-roofed appear
ance and almost rustic simplicity Of the
western bungalow. designers have evolved
a style OF house which they call 1.-THE two
story bungalow" They are. however, moth
ing more than the story and a half cottage
we have been building for years, except that
they have some Of the exterior Characters
tics Of the one-story bungalow, which is
most noticeable in the simple treatment
and wide projection OF the cornice. The
bungalow Is said to be the result of build
ing experience in parts of the country
which are subject TO seismatic disturbances.
however. that may be. 1t is true that we
owe the origin of the bungalow largely 70
southern California, Arizona and Mexico,
where such disturbances frequently
take place. Here. for the same reason,
walls n ceilings are not always plas-
tered. In other parts OF the country this
precaution is not necessary and Is certainly
not advisable in the northern states. While
the bungalow Is not necessary to overcome
the dangers Of seismatic disturbances in all
Parts Of the country, the convenience Of
the arrangement of an entire house on one
floor 10 universally recognised, and this Is
why the bungalow has become one Of the
recognised types Of this typical American
home.

AF ONO SUIT To
COME To TRIAL
Demurrer Is 0verruled in the
$4,000 Case of
Mrs. Burns

By a decision handed down in the
Circuit Court yesterday afternoon, the
suit of Bessie r. Burns to secure the
sum of $4,000 from Julia FL. Along.
which the latter is alleged to have
promised on condition of the signing
Of certain compromise document by
Mrs. Burns, will be fought out in the
courts again. Mrs. Along fled a de-
murrer to the suit on the ground that
the alleged promise was in conflict with
the so-called "parole evidence rule. -
The demurrer was overruled by Circuit
Judge De Bolt, who gave his decision as
follows:
The complaint herein alleges in sub
stance, that defendant, in consideration
of plaintiffs signing and executing a
certain instrument, promised to pay
plaintiff the sum of $4,000.
Defendant demurs on the ground that
the alleged promise is in conflict with
the so-called "parole evidence rule.'
1t will be observed that plaintiff does
not seek to recover on this instrument
SO signed and executed by her, but upon
another and distinct contract which was
the inducement for the execution by
her of the former. Hence, the rule
which prohibits the admission of parole
evidence to vary or contradict the terms
of written contract, has no application
in this case. Plaintiff does not seek
to vary or contradict the terms of the
written instrument This is not the OBJ
ject nor can such be the effect of this
suit. And, while each contract is sep
arate and distinct from the other-each
complete within itself-each was, in
part at least, the consideration or in
ducement for the other being entered
into.
AS the court said in Bonney V. Nor
rill, 81 Me. 1868: elf it could be main
tanned that the object and effect of
this evidence must be to contradict,
vary, or in any manner to control the
legal import of the written agreement
between the parties, its admission could
not be sanctioned But >on a careful
examination it will be seen, that there
is nothing inconsistent with the written
stipulations of the parties, and that the
parol evidence is offered to establish
a distinct collateral agreement between
the same parties, which was not re-
quired to be in writing, and which, in
fact, constituted in part the eonsidera-
ton of the written agreement. The
authorities are abundant, that proof of
such an agreement, not inconsistent
with the terms of the writing, may be
made by parol evidence.
Both upon reason and authority il
appears clear that an oral promise made
by one party in consideration of the
execution of written instrument by
the other may be shown by parol evi
dence. This doctrine or procedure il
founded upon the principle that the
parol promise sought to be shown was
either collateral to or induced the
| written contract and is not incon
sistent with the terms of the writer
| instrument.
In my opinion the complaint states {
cause of action
The demurrer, therefore, is overruled

CATHCART EVADED
DIRECT ANSWERS
Filed Reply Tuesday Afternoon
to Complaint of H. G.
MiddIeditch.

Escaping a direct answer of almost
every allegation made against them
by H. G. Middleditch, trustee in bank.
ruptey for H1e Chas. III. Herriclx Com
pany, Ltd, John W. Cathcart, Mary
Cathcart and Percy NJ. Pond have filed
their joint and several answer to the
complaint of the former. The evasions
in the answer are mostly connected
with John W. Cathcart's part in the
case.
On the first allegation named in the
complaint, the answer filed states that
the defendants "have no sufficient
knowledge or information as to dates,
terms, or amounts alleged to have been
made by Cathcart to the c.. H. Herrick
Carriage Company" and they there
fore deny the truth of the paragraph
and leave the plaintiff to his proof
thereof.
On the second allegation, the de-
PENDANTS also have had lapse of mem
DRY and state that they have no suf-
ficient information or belief to enable
them to answer that part of the COM
plant alleging that on May 20, 1908,
the Herrick company was declared a
bankrupt and H. G.. Middleditch was
made trustee on September 90, 1904.
So again they deny the truth of the
allegation and leave the plaintiff to
his proof thereof.
The defendants in the suit admit
that the complainant recovered a judg-
ment for $275.23 on December 20,
1905, in an assumpsit suit against
Cathcart. However. the execution on
a Judgment for $337.65, issued July
IA, 1908, was returned nulla bona by
the High Sheriff of the Territory,
which practically means that it was
marked emo good. ;"
A denial is made that Mary Cath
cart entered into contract with P.
NJ. Pond on January /, 1904, whereby
she agreed to purchase a house and lot
from the latter for the sum of $3.50,
and it is also denied that there was
any attempt to defraud the just cred
itors of Cathcart. 1t is denied that
Mary Cathcart paid on the alleged
contract the sum Of $4,000, and that
Mary Cathcart, by reason of the
fraudulent practises of John w. Cath
cart, holds any equity in the alleged
contract with P. M. Pond or in the lot
referred to.
Cathcart and the others then tell the
story of how the house and lot on Col
lege Hills was secured. They allege
that in August, 1902, Edith E. Pond
leased certain premises on College Hills
to the Cathcarts at a monthly rental
of $35, to be paid in advance. On
the payment of $500, the premises
were to be conveyed to the lessees by
warranty deed, free from all encum
brances, save the mortgage of Peter G
Jones for $4,000. The premises were
leased on the above conditions fol
four years by an oral agreement be
tween Mrs. Pond and Mrs. Cathcart
The oral agreement was at later dat'
reduced to writing, but was nevel
signed by either of the parties, ac
cording to the defendants answer, thu
ownership in fee simple now being al
| legged to lie with Mrs. Pond.
| It is alleged by Cathcart that thu
option to purchase the premises ex
PRED in August, 1908, and that the,
are occupying the premises merely a
rent-paying tenants.
