t> Defeats Beckley by Single Vote.
 'The best laid plans of mice and men oft gong a'glee," said Scotland's famous poet, Robbie" Burns years ago and this saying was never more aptly illustrated than in yesterdays election. Despite the opposition of the democrats and those of his own party, who indulge in secret meetings that grand old warrior of many cam paigns, William H. Gibney, was re- elected first selectman for the four teenta consecutive time, and incident ally received the largest number of votes of any man on either ticket. As at the last election, Gibney was scratched by some voters. It is in teresting to note that the most of the scratching was done in the second district, Kensington In that part of the town thirty-five republicans did not desire his return, but on the other hand forty weight democrats cast their ballots for him, thus giving him g clear majority in the district. Last year he defeated w. W. Pagan by PA votes, which was nineteen less than he obtained against his oppo- h6nL or ISI0.

FOR THE OWNER OF THE
NEW GUN

would ike to talk little
while with you, my dear boy,
before you go to the fields and
woods to try that new %, or.
what-ever-it-may-be kind of a.
gun.
I'm glad to know that you are
not one of the, hope, few boys
who shoot any bird or wild ami
NAL just for the fun CD Of it,
without regard to its merits as
helper of man.
Here is a bird that you should
not shoot-the saucy ".red-head
or woodpecker. He has a straight
rigid and sharp bill which en-
ables him to cut into the bark or
wood of a tree; also he has a
long, acute tongue, armed to-
ward the tip with barbs and ca
pable of great extension. When
the bill enters the wood, the
tongue which is covered with a
viscid glue, reaches out and the
apple tree borer, or any other
kind of wormy destroyer, is TAX
en- up into his mouth; you may
readily see that he is invaluable
to the farmer.
The robin is a most useful
bird, beautiful also and sallcy as
his head hobs up quickly at
short intervals to see if you are
watching him pick those worms
and bugs from the grass, and
listen to his CHEEKY song be-
tween the April showers.
The bobolink of the "spink,
spank, sphinx" poem is very in
dustrious little bird, but unmer-
cifully slaughtered in some Of
the Southern States.
The nighthawk, which sails
in such uneven sweeps, now
down, now up, in sumertime ev-
enings, is busy catching great
numbers of beetles, mosquitoes
and grasshoppers. The band
tailed pigeon is useful bird of
the West-shot as game. The
yellow warbler is a great insect
, eater, especially Of cancer worms
and injurious beetles. The mar
tin, whose inimitable chatter is
so fascinating, is also a persist
ent insect eater.
Of course there are many
other kinds of useful birds of
which / will only mention one,
called the quail in the Northern
and Western States, in Pennsyl-
vania and the South is called
the partridge. Its worth to the
farmer cannot be estimated, vet
its fate is to be slaughtered in
great numbers. II will become
quite tame if cared for during
SHOWS and ice by scattering barn
yard seeds III their haunts.
If you want to feel a warm
glow at your heart on colo
winter day, just seated some
seeds or crumbs in front of your
window, and tie some unsaltel
meat scraps in the trees for tho
woodpecker and other insooti-
vorous birds, and then watch the
I different kinds and colorg Of tho
fcatheved tribes paytakc Of yauZ

Schantz Realizes
Ambition in the
Enlarged Bank

Albert l.. Schantz. head o. the enlarged
state Bank Of Omaha, has long cherished
the idea Of being president Of just such
large state bank as the enlarged bank
now Is.
When he came 20 Omaha ten years ago.
he remarked to Henry Kieser. who was
then associated with him in the Bennett
store, that he had an ambition to form a
gigantic state bank.
When the state banking law was
changed Mr.. Schantz said; Now IL my
chance" and he took advantage of tho
state deposit guarantee law and organ
lied the State Bank OF Omaha.
Another incident OF the move from the
old quarters OF the state bank to the new
is that Mr.. Schantz was one OF the prime
movers in the building OF the CITY Nat
ional bank building and he still holds a
large block OF stock in the building.
Mr.. Schantz Is now head of the en-
larged bank OF which he had so long
planned and has It auartered in the mag
nificent building which he help to build
