Lambert wished TO be espoused to Eva at
exactly the same time that the nuptial

three. Accordingly these four journeyed
TO Omaha from Thurston, where they live,
Mr.. and Mrs. Eli Calvin Fowler, parents
of the brides, accompanying them.
Picking up a half dozen relatives the

the company, augmented by ten or twelve
clerks and a few newspaper persons,
marched into County Judge Leslie's pri-

Lambeart Engelhart wore a green neck

into the breast pocket OF his coat. His
brothers scarf-was of red and his handker-

Ella Fowler had on a brown hat, white
waist and a brown skirt. while her sister
had adopted a color scheme of blue.
The elder pair were first married and
Judge Leslie began to read the lines
uniting Mat and Ella Fowler. Right here
a delay occurred. No one had risen to

direction, The numerous relatives we're

the second bridal pair just had to con-

When the ceremony had been finally
performed, a second kissing bee proceeded.
At length the echoes of smack upon

All sorrow that the wedding had to be

Taste Is Sure
Stomach Guide
A barometer Which Never Fails,
Though Seldom Believed.


"Taste is the direct guide to the stomach
and the taste buds are connected by the
nerves with the stomach itself, so that
thew represent it's health or disorder. If
the stomach or its juices are out OF tone,
the blood is fermented by a change IN
the alkaline or acid condition. and these
reach the mouth both directly and indi-
rectly
"The taste buds are in the ongue, and
are mounted by hairlike projections called
papillae: they cover the surface of the
tongue"
when you taste these buds rise up and
absorb the liquid; inform the nerves;
the nerves tell the stomach. and the food
is acceptable or not, just as the stomach
feels"
The above remarks on taste come from
an eminent authority and simply explain
why when one smells cooking or sees food
one thinks he can eat. but when he tastes
he learns the stomach is out of business.
To the person who cannot taste Alright
who relishes no food and simply forces
himself to eat. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
hold the secret of enjoyable eating. per
feet digestion and renewed general health.
Most men wait until their stomachs are
completely sickened before they think
seriously of assisting nature.
When your taste for food is lost # is a
certain sign the stomach needs attention.
s~tuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure such
stomachs. They restore sweetness of
breath. renew gastric juices. enrich the
blood and give the stomach the strength
and rest necessary to general duty.

seventy-Five Men and Twenty-Five

Company. which sends

What 100 garment workers-soventy-five
girls and twenty-five men-call a lockout,
but what President J. Engleman Of the
Novelty Skirt company calls a strike
occurred Thursday morning at the factory
Of the company. 121S-l5 Harvey street, and
was followed by a meeting and heated dis.
cussion among the employees at the social
list hall in Crounse block on North Six
terth street.
w are out and we are going TO stay
out. The Novelty skirt company cannot
get workers in Omaha and the lockout will
cost the company thousands of dollars"
declared Marie Dickson, one. of the girl
workers, as she stamped her foot and
counted the money in a none too we'll filled

tempted to make this a union shop, which
it never has been and can never be-" said
President Engleman. I'VE have wired men
who nave applied before for work in
Omaha, and within three or four days will
have a sufficient force to fill the few re-
naming orders for spring goods. BY
March /. when the work on fall garments
begins, we will have a complete new force
without taking any OF the old garment
workers back. The new force will come on
and make several desired changes in the
condition Of our factory"
Proposition Presented.
According to 1. G%insburg, Who repre-
scented the newly-organized local Of the In
ternational Ladies Garment Makers union,
he went to the factory early Thursday
morning to present a proposition which the
workers desired to make, as a local union,
to President Engleman. The head of the
Novelty Skirt company refused to discuss
the matter,
Ginsburg says the proposition consisted
In asking that the company pay the work
ers every week instead of every two weeks;
reinstate two men who were discharged and
raise the salaries of several workers who
were doing the same class of work for $1i
per week which two other workers were
doing and receiving SIS per week.
I'VE also proposed to stand by the
women workers. said Ginsburg. There
are girls working in the factory for from
IS to stO who are working right by the side
OF men who are getting from $40 to S14."
1. V. Guye, organizer for the American
Federation of Labor, was present in the
meeting which followed the refusal of Mr..
Engleman to receive the proposition from
Ginsburg, and explained that many of the
workers had only recently Joined the
union, and since the force was now union
lied, the time was ripe that some readjust-
ments in salaries be made.
President Engleman said: LAS for paying
weekly, we just as soon pay every Satur'
day as not, but will not permit drawing
through the week,
las for raising the pay of the two mer
who are drawing $4 per week, simply
because two other men in the shop were
drawing $25, such a thing would be unfall
and unjust, as the $14 men made not only
inferior garmentsS but fewer of them thar
the better paid workers.

The question will be one of interpreta-

railroad companies will rely upon the
United States supreme courts decision
N the Ames case, wherein the court
held that only traffic originating ana

taken into consideration in determin-
ing whether a rate ordered by the
state is confiscatory. A large part CT

decided by Judge Garland.
