rlared Jay Burns, head OF the Burni
Baking company. discussing tbs
bread situation in Omaha.
Mr.. Burns admits that the wrap
pers on his "Holsnm" bread reading
"over thirteen ounces" and "ovei
twenty-six ounces" do not represent
the actual weight of the bread, and
that the bread may not have
weighed the amounts Indicated or
wrappers. He explains, this situa-
ton by saying that there was a de-
lay in receiving a new supply OF
wrappers from the factory and that
the wrappers on, hand we're used re-
gardless of the weight OF the bread.
Beginning Thursday Mr.. Burns started
60 mark his bread wrappers eleven
ounces or over for the scent loaveH and
rtwenty-two ounces or over" for the 10
cent leaves. He states he Is scaling the
weight % his bread according TO price Of
flour, which ne contends Is the only prac-
Heal way a baker can regulate his bust
hess.
'"rhe bureau OF labor statistics OF the

vances or declines. and there 10 a law

eording 10 the price Of -four" declared
Mr.. Burns
Mr.. Burns thinks City sealer John
Grant Pegs has not been quite fsir in
this matter. and condemns the existing
ordinance requiring sixteen and thirty
two ounces.
Pegg has filed with the city prosecutor
Information against the Reederl swot oda,
Union Pacific and New England bakeries,
charging in all cases violation OF the or
dinanco requiring sixteen and thirty-two
ounces. He also will file other COM
plants OF misbrandlng bread under the
state laws, the latter complaints being
against retailers and bakers In each case.
II have no quarrel with Jay Burns, nor
ain ! waging any fight against Mr. Burns
more than against any Of the BAKERS"
declared Mr.. Pogg, who says he lie going
after all vioiators alike.
Pegg has written Judge j. p. Engllsh
OF the district court a letter In which a
request Is made that the four appeal caaes
against jay Burns be advanced on the
docket and set for early trial. 20 that
The eonstitutionality Of the sixteen and

Opening Production of Harrison Du-
Frayne Associate Players Company.

One of the feature plays in the
repertoire of the Harrison Dufrayne
Associate Players, ga Wife's Honor"
will be offered at Orleans opera house
Monday evening. IA Wife's Honor"
was originally produced in New York
and had long run of over five months.
Chicago, Philadelphia all pronounced
it the best comedy drama of the sea-
son. ga Wife's Honor" is sure to
please all tastes. for while the comedy
element predominates there is an excel
lent plot and it is teeming with heart
throbs. A story that teaches a moral
lesson but in such a way that with a
happy ending one leaves the theatre
with feeling of peace and a realiza-
ton that the man who is all hero or
villain has no place in the modern
play. The play is a slice of human
life and the audience lives and feels
with each of the characters and votes
1t matinee we'll spent. The produc-
ton gives wide scope for an elaborate
display of costumes and stage embel-
lishments and Charles Harrison has
spared no details in making this piece
one of the features of his large roper.
toire. 1t is worthy of notice that this
will be the first time that ga Wife's
Honor" has ever been presented By q
stock company. There will be four
high-class vaudeville acts, between the
acts. Seats now on sale.

School Makes Fine Showing.

The school exhibit Friday afternoon
and evening was decided success.
During the afternoon many parents
visited the school and discussed school
problems with the teachers. Great
interest was shown in the various ex-
hibits of each room. showing that the
hard work done by the pupils in pre-
pairing the exhibits was appreciated by
the public. AS soon as school closed
for the afternoon, people began to
gather about the domestic science and
agricultural exhibits. The girls had
prepared cakes, pies, preserves. jellies
and fancy work, which were displayed
upon prettily decorated table in the
domestic science room. The girls gave
full explanations of their work. The
boys of the agricultural course separat-
ed milk and made the cream into
butter and the skinned milk into
cheese. The manner in which the
crackers, butter and cheese were dis
posed of by the visitors attested to the
purity of the product as we'll as to the
appetite of the visitors. The crops
class showed the greenhouse and were
proud to point out the fourth premium
which the school won at the recent
Rutland exposition. The whole exhibit
was such a decided success that. it will
be repeated next year.
