UNITED CLOTHES SHOP
MAKES HUGE DEAL
Buys Out Stock, Good Will and
Fixtures of Rochester Clothes
Shop in Her Grand
Hotel Building.
Will Shortly Move Present
United Clothes Shop to Room
Now Occupied by Roch-
ester Clothes Shop.

It very often takes q change of
scene to keep up with the demands
OF business progress; the merchant OF
today cannot stand still; when oppor-
tunity to improve presents itself he
must change, move, transform, or re-
model, as best fits the case.
The latest big" move in Omaha
clothing and furnishing goods circles
Is that Just consummated by The
United Clothes Shop, which has 80
|bpularized the location at 1912 Far
''nam St., In the Merchants Hotel
building.
The United Clothes Shop has
bought out stock, good will and fix
lures of the Rochester Clothes shop,
and will soon move it's own business
to the location of the Rochester
Clothes Shop. In other words from
now on you'll find the United Clothes
Shop, with its tasty styles and popu-
lar 1910 and SIS" suit prices, at 10th
and Howard Sts., in the Her Grand
Hotel building.
In going into it's newer location
the United Clothes Shop will, as in
the past, feature $40 and SIS Suits
for Men, but, in the newer location
will also feature an attractive stock
of popularity priced furnishing goods
Just as the Rochester Clothes Shop
has been doing right along. ,.
Far less rent and general expense
IS the magnet that will draw the Uni
ted Clothes Shop to it's newer loca-
ton; it is selling its line of garments
at phenomenally low prices, and any
littleIlift that may be gotten through
the advantage of doing business in a
less extensively conducted store will
quickly be felt in the quality and
price of the goods. In other words
you'll buy better suits than ever al
the United" for $40 and SIS.
AS in the past the Omitted" will
feature clothes in styles beyond ques-
= ton; late, well made up suits at SIC
and we'll worth $15; and SIS suits
that would do credit to concerns spe-
cializing on $40 and $25 suits.
Note the early change Of location
make up your mind to save what car
be saved on clothes for the coming
winter.
Don't forget! The United Clothes
Shop will henceforth take over the
business and occupy the present quar-.
tera OF the Rochester Clothes Shor
at 10th and Howard SITS.

Three New Clues
Found in Double
Crime at Kronberg

AURORA, Neb., oct. So.-(Special)-In
the finding Of a S2-calibre revolver. a
heavy club and an iron bludgeon close
to trails leading from the homes OF
Nels Nelson and Fred Luff. 1t seems
apparent that some third party made
the assaults upon both Nelson and Luff
which recently Astonlshed and alarmed
the peaceful Danish neighborhood In
the vicinity OF Kronberg of this county.
The revolver was found Friday lying
on the beams OF cement bridge close
to the home OF younger brother OF Nels
Nelson. IL was discovered by one of
the large searching parties which went
over the country thoroughly between the
homes Of Nelson and Luff, following tho
two trails which were discovered yes
terday.
Lying on the ground under the beam
of the bridge upon which the revolver
lay was heavy piece OF iron which had
evidently been at one time n part OF n
cultivator. A club which had formerly
been a slngie-tree was found about
thirty-flve feet from the trail which led
from Nelson's home. The revolver was
long barrelled gun and II contained
one empty shell and five loaded ones
1t was the theory advanced by those who
found the gun that It had been placed
In the bridge after the shooting OF Luff.
Just one shot was fired at Luff and
this passed through his scalp, making
a painful scalp wound, but one that
would have no serious consequences.
The trail which led from Nelson's
home showed the steps of some person
running who undoubtedly wore heavy
rubber boots. After running through
several wheat fields this person threw
away the single-tree near the school
house Just a mile west Of Chris FEEDER
sons corner. This was In a wheat field
which was drilled early In October. The
club lay across the rows OF wheat.
clearly showing that II had not been
there at the time the wheat was drilled.
II was a heavy hardwood slngle-tree
and could easily have caused the injury
to Nelson's head and shoulder by a
swift hard blow.
This trail led north from the school
house and down to within 100 feet of
where the gun and iron bludgeon were
found. At that place the trail was lost
in the public road.
The trail which led from Luff's house
showed rubber boot tracks for about a
half mile, at which place rubber boots
were found and the trail proceeded
thereafter I'm tracks evidently made by
a person in his stocking feet. This trail
led almost exactly to tho bridge I'm

RIGHT TO PASTURE cow
Contest On at Hickman to Find Out
What Public Square May
Be Used For.
CASE COMES UP IN COURT
CFrom a staff Correspondent

(From Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, oct. 30-(Special.) -Have
the authorities Of a village, city or state
the right to turn the city park or other
public grounds into COW pasture and
rent out the same so that cows and
other domestic animals may browse off
the green grass instead of having a lawn
mower propelled by a strong man. cut
the same?
This is a question which is bethg tussled
over in a Lincoln court. 1Ae village
board of Hickman, a thriving village In
Lancaster county, leased the village park
TO woman for the purpose OF pasture
for her COW. one morning she went out
TO the park to abstract the tactical
fluid and found the COW dead. Two
bovines hanging around the park we're
accused OF spring the COW 20 death. and
the woman has asked damages OF 500
from the village. and also. the owners
of the animals. to reimburse her for the
loss OF the COW.
The defendants object to paying for the
COW and claim that the feed on the vii
lage lot waa no luxuriant that the COW
! gorged herself and died from too much
green grass. Twenty-Five witnesses are
being heard In the case.
Z The plaintiff declares that she paid the
village board $40 for the privilege OF
| allowing the COW to feed in peace where
| plenty abounded. and the right OF the
village board to lease the park for feed
ing purposes is one of the points to be
settled.
Several years ago popullst state Off
Ger used to pasture his COW on the state
house lawn and some comment was made
at the time on the right OF state officer
to the grass without paying for It. How
ever, tht cow fed and thrived and edid
not, like the Hickman COW, die either
from too much eating or from assaults
by other COW animals
