Style Show Opens
in ALI Big Stores
in Omaha Monday

Omaha merchants. who in former years
were on the constant qm vive lest sons
other merchants should arrange a "fal
opening a day or two earlier than theil

the assurance that the display of new

the stores at the same hour. Monday ia
set for the time for all.
Lack Of cooperation among the mel-
chants has somewhat spoiled fall open
ings heretofore; this year say the mer-
chants, the cooperation of all tho stores
insures' the biggest and best style show
ever seen in the west. In other years,
stores we're forced TO make their opening
before they were ready. because they
feared that someone else was ready and
might beat them by a day or tWo
This year everybody knows when every
body else will open and everybody win
be ready Instead of fearing. what his
nelshbor may do, each man will bend mis-
energies toward making His own display
the best possible
1t is expected that students Of STYLES
from all over the west win be on hand
Monday TO examine all the latest irnporta-
tons and to learn what the styles really
will be.

People who Knew George A. kim

Man Now at His Old Home
at Niles, Mich.

Signatures of George A Kimmel, for
merly of Omaha, and George A. Kimmel.
the Niles, Mich. convict, were conf
pared by clerks in the office of Register
of Deeds Frank w. Bandle Friday morn
ing and showed SUCH similarity that the
clerks would not positively state whether
or not the signatures were made by the
same hand.
The general characteristics of the sig
natures are the same, though they differ
in minute details.
The comparison was made between four
signatures written. by George A Kimmel.
the ex-cohvict, while in the prison az
Auburi. y Y. and the signature OF L
mortgage release. signed by George 4.
Kimmel of Omaha, as secretary Of the
Home Investment company, on April Is,
1892.
The similarity of the signatures on the
letters and on the mortgage record is
sufficient TO add strength to the claim
of the Niles man that he is George A.
Kimmel who lived in Omaha with Andrew
]. Hunt years ago and who disappeared
in Kansas City in 1925 II is not sutfi-
cient to absolutely prove that the two
