Hanson Creditors
Meet on Tuesday
Postponement Necessary to Get In.
formation from Some 0ut-of-
Town Parties,

The meeting Of Tolf Hanson's creditors
to decide what disposition will be made Of
his business will be held at the Paxton
hotel at 10 o'clock Tuesday morning. II
was found necessary to postpone the meet.
ing from Monday morning because OF de-
lays in getting information by letter on
some of Mr.. Hanson's oHt-of-town ac-
counts.
The report that Tolf Hanson is in a
sanitartum in Lincoln or Council Bluffs ls
absolutely without foundation and could
not possibly be true" says Carl Herring,
attorney for the missing restaurant man.
IF he were anywhere but in New York
or on his way home his family or 1 would
know It,"
Mrs. Hanson heard from him last on the
18th, when a wire from New York said that
he was ready to start for home, having
completed his business in the east, and
since then there has been no word Of any
sort. The persistent rumor that he is In
a sanitarium is denied by her as EN-.
phatically as by Mr.. Herring.
II in the judgment OF the creditors the
two places can together make enough to
tide the Hanson cafe over It's present en-
barTassment both will be kept open. Men
who are familiar with the affairs OF Mr..
Hanson are confident that the Sixteenth
street cafe can be made to pay If it is
kept open. Its liabilities are estimated at
$780, 900.
1T is very unlikely" said one Of them.
that the creditors will close the Hanson
cafe. 1t would be not only a bad thing
for Omaha to fail to support such an en-
terprise, but It would be very plainly
against the best interests Of the creditors
themselves, since judlcious management
now will bring the whole tangle throui h
without loss to anyone"

Dorothy, Rhea and Caroline, three girls
of about II years of age, were sitting in
the hammoc when Rhea spoke up, I'VE
want to have a good picnic this summer
and not one like we had last year"
I'VE want to have lots Of fun, too" said
Dorothy. ."

cripple, who never has any happiness; old
Mr.. Clark, who walks on crutches, and
those poor Brown children and girls;
there's so many we could make happy Just

Rhea and Caroline agreed to the plan.
but how should they manage It. Money
was wanted. Caroline, who had been earn
estly thinking, suddenly Jumped up, ran
into the house and brought out The Bee.
She looked up and down the want ad
columns anxiously. "Oh. I've got it," ex-
claimed Caroline Joyousiy.
"Gat what?" questioned RheA, taking the
paper from her hands.
Rhea read the above want ad, while
Dorothy looked over her shoulder.
The girls were so p eased and excited they
fairly Rugged each other.
You dear paper" exclaimed Rhea, laugh
ingly. IF We only can get the work" said
Caroline, we can then earn the money for
our plcnic.'
The next morning three anxious girls in
quired at the address given for the posi-
ton.
The girls obtained II and worked steadily
Tor one month OF their summer vacation.
At the end OF that time the girls STONED
working ana each little purse contained a
nice little sum for the free picnic" AT
last the day arrived. Mrs. Morgan, Susie.
Mr.. Clark, the Brown children and an
OF the poor and unhappy people were in
vited.
Don't bring one thing" the girls said
over and over again to every member Of
the picnic. Thu free picnic" was a sue
cess.
Every hear, vas made nd nothing
but pleasure and happiness reIgned
throughout the picnic grounds that day.
After It was all over, Caroline said, 1T

poor folks enjoyed that picnic"
