Morris Has Man Milliner

Morris has man milliner who is an
exceptionally clever designer in Easter
fashions for women. He has one of
the most unique window displays ever
seen in Morris but the women say he
has absolutely no chance of selling a
single production. Several hundred
women have already visited the store
and they are unanimous in their ver-
dict. This man is John Eul, and his
millinery may be seen in the show
windows at the Walz hardware store.
Pans, kettles, bowls and cuspidors
inverted and trimmed with rope and
gay colors. with cutlery and paint
brushes and other articles from the
hardware stock. are the materials
from which Eul has wrought his
wonderful "creations. All the
latest patterns are there in gorgeous
splendor. Eul appeals to woman's
well known bargain instincts for he
has marked each chat" with large
price tag bearing cut-prices figures.
There have been many attractive
as we'll as unique window displays
in Morris but the Walz hardware store
is easily en- tiled to all the trophies.

FAMILY AT CHURCH
WHEN HOME BURNS
JOHN McALEER SUFFERS BY
MONDAY FIRE
Feeble Water Pressure and
Shortage of Hose Prevent
Firemen Doing Effective Work.
Origin of Fire is Unknown

Fire was discovered at the home of
John McAleer early Monday morning
and before the fire company were
ready for action the building was
doomed with all it's contents.
One hour after the alarm was turned
in the house was in ashes. Small
insurance was carried but the loss
will be almost total. Several fine
shade trees were destroyed by the
flames and heat.
The origin of the fire is unknown
but is believed to have been caused
from an overeated cook stove. Mr..
McAleer had risen early, built fire
in the stove and then went to church.
The next time he saw the house
flames were shooting from the kitchen
roof.
The fire alarm was turned in at
8 :35 and in few moments the depart
ment was hustling across the tracks
to the scene of action with all possi-
BILE speed. The house was located in
the outskirts of the city and quite
distance from a hydrant. When the
boys attached the hose the reel was
short but was extended quickly. The
water pressure was feeble which added
to the difficulty. The fire had gained
considerable Roadway and the depart
ment gave their time to saving the
barn and outbuildings.
Mr.. McAleer, one son and one
daughter, occupied the house. MIR.
McAleer is a well-to do retired farm
er. He has not fully decided to re-
/ place the old building but is consider
ing plan to do so and may start
operations right away.

DAWSON'S CROOKED WORK
ENDS IN FLIGHT
Carried Fake Accounts on Com.
pany Books and Morris Pee
pie May Have to Pay-Ger-
mans May Get Chance to
Shoot Him

Where is L. S. Dawson, late man
ager for the Gund Brewing Company
branch in Morris? The police are
anxious to know.
The Gund brewing company and at
least half hundred persons in Nor
1is including business men, profess
sonal men, prominent church men,
bers, matrons and servant girls are
also looking for him. Dawson has
their money or alleged that he sold
them beer for which they have mt paid.
He is believed to be onto his way to
England today. through Canada, to
enlist IN the army of the allies and
there are some in Morris who wouldn't
shed tears if the Germans or the
Turks shoot him.
For the past three years or so Daw-
son has been in charge of the Gund
Lranch in Morris. Last Tuesday was
the last seen of him here and on Fri
day he faded away entirely at Grace
y willie after having made number of
collections. forged company checks
and borrowed various sums from
friends here and elsewhere. Just how
much he is short with the company is
not known at present but it is under
stood to be in the neighborhood of
ST, 500 with prospects Of growing,
and which bonding company will be
required to make good. The Gund
auditor was here the first of the week
getting a line on Dawson's tangled
business affairs. and properly Install
ing William eenan, of Tracy, as
, Dawson's successor at the local office.
Dawson operations have extended
over several months, and his actions
grew suspicious lately. He was free
with the use of money and lived a
very fast life. He did lot of talk
ing, claimed to be "ladies' man"
and prided himself on his reputation
as a gambler. His talk led to gen.
eral suspicion of which he is said ito
have become aware, and which may
have FASTENED his flight. He came
! here from England where his mother
and several brothers live. Two of his
brothers are in the English army, and
recent letters from them indicated that
Dawson was expected there most any
time. He harbored an intense hatred
for Germans and one of his last stunts
Indicated that he had not forgotten
them in his plan to get rich quick.
Practically all of the persons whose
names he faxed into the company
books under charges for alleged beer
deliveries are those with German
names, OF are persons of German de-
scent. The amounts against them
range from one to eighty dollars, and
he is pro- ably chuckling today over
the manner in which they shall be
able to clear themselves. He has the
Morris Commercial Club charged up
with several cases of beer. No liquor
is permitted at the club rooms and
the members say no beer was ever de-
;. livered there by Dawson or anybody
else.
The Gund company expect to have
the matter Strengthened out within g
short time and seem very anxious
that no double injustice shall be
done to any of Dawson's numerous
victims.
