Acting Mayor Butler suggests

just what authority his department
has in the matter of taking over the
contracts which have gone by de-
fault. Some OF these paving districts
were started last spring.
Il know one thing, this depart
ment can finish the Jobs, and we in
tend to finish them i. the three de-
linquent contractors do not show
signs OF life within !, few days" an

KANSAN'S ROMANCE
RUDELY SHATTERED
Matrimonial Paper Courtship
and Marriage Makes New
Convert of Celibacy.
GOES BACK TO THE FARM


Sunday a. ma simple Kansas farmer
Sunday p. m.-Suitor for the hand OF Ada
Stephens, s'
Tuesday--A happy honeymoon.
Wednesdays heart broken bridegroom
marriage. -.
saturday--A farm hand again.
Sydney Robson, 81 years old. a
farmer of Corning, Kan, rues the day
that he answered an advertisement IN
matrimonial paper and came to
Omaha imbued with the desire to re-
turn to the farm with his bride. Fri
day he gave vent to his determine
tons by filing an application for the
annuling of his rapid-fire marriage to
Miss Ada Stephens Of Benson.
The story OF the Robison-Stephens
romance srriacks of the dime novel.
With his money nearly gone and his
spirit broken, Mr.. Robson appealed
to Assistant County Attorney Ray j.
Abbott for relief from ME bonds of
matrimony, after three days of mar
ried life. ..-.-
This Is the Life-Maybe.
After perusing matrimonial papers
| for weeks he finally selected Miss
Ada Stephens of Omaha as the lady
most desirable to preside over his
farm home. He came to Omaha Sum
day, went to the home OF Miss
Stephens sister, near Benson, met
the young lady, her sister and BROTH
er-in-law, remained at the home all
day Sunday, and before leaving pro-
posed to Miss Stephens.
His Investigations regarding the
character, physical well-being and
associations revealed no stumbling
blocks and he consented to become
the step-father of the l5-months old
child Of Miss Stephens, who she de-
clared was born of her first marriage,
Robson went to the court house
bright and early Monday morning and
was granted license to wed by
Deputy Clerk H. H. Stubbendorf. The
couple were married by Justice c. w.
Britt, the sister of the bride, Miss
Jessie Larson, acting as witness.
Prepare for Honeymoon.
Plans were immediately made for
the packing of the household furniture
and effects for removal to the farm

The Bees Fund for
Free Milk and Ice

]. H. Mcdonald, retired merchant
tailor, who was confined to his bed
for few weeks during the hottest
weather, living mostly on milk diet,
made vow that if he got well enough
to write a check the first thing he
would do would be to send $40 to The
Bees Milk and Ice Fund.
So, as soon as he was able to get
to his office, he mailed the check with
the wish that it might help some of
the poor children.
A bit Of sickness or privation does,
indeed, make one realize the hot
weather sufferings Of helpless little
ones-those whom The Bees fund
cares for.

while, the ordinance gives the option
of allowing the oil consumers to con-
tract for deliveries under the liquid
measurement system, it, however,
does protect consumers who may de-
,nand that oil shall be delivered by
weight, as defined in the ordinance"

placed in the ordinance to satisfy
+ dealers who appeared before the

ment. WIZ n
