COULD RECOGNIZE NUISANCE
Judges Retort Set Courtroom Laugh ing and Gave Lawyer Something
 to Think About.

City Magistrate Krotel, who is noted for characteristic brand of dry hu- nor, occasionally manifested in ut terances from the bench, turned cruel shaft loose upon pestiferous young attorney this week, to the su- preme enjoyment of crowded court room, says the New York correspond ent of the Cincinnati Times-Star. The young attorney was prosecuting in a case where the maintaining of hui sance was alleged. The rulings of Magistrate Krotel did not please him. His numerous objections became per sistently controversial. If your honor pleases," he said, T would not pre- sume to instruct the honorable court in question of law, but am impelled to observe that I doubt-in the pres ent case only, of course-if the court properly conceives of what constitutes a nuisance"
 You are mistaken, sir," was the re- sponse from the bench. This court has never had more clear or exem- plary idea of what constitutes a nui- sance than in the present case at the present time. And for that, in a measurable way, the court thanks you, sir"

better lasting qualities, and some of the topcoats made of fabric furs de- serve to be called magnificent.
 One of the plainer coats for general wear is shown here. It is made Of familiar weave in fabric fur imitat- ing Persian lamb. The coat hares from the neck down at the back, but fits smoothly above the bust line with gradual flare below. It is some what double-breasted, fastening in a slanting line at the front with hand some dark mother-of-pearl buttons. The sleeves are roomy, set in long arms eye. Their fullness is confined in an ample cuff.
 The high, straight collarband SUD- ports a wide turnover at the sides and back and fastens with two buttons like those at the front, but smaller. Large and practical patch pockets at each side are also finished with but tons.
 This coat is in very dark brown much like seal brown but having slight pur- plish cast. Inlays of gray velvet at the collar, cuffs and pockets harmon ize with it and add a smart finish. The ingenious cut of the pockets and cuffs bears witness to the art of the designer, for it is in such novel little touches that distin cticn lies.

DIVERSION FOR SICK CHILD
Many Ways to Abuse filling Young ster Besides Buying Toys-She
 Enjoys Cutting Out Dolls.

There are many ways to amuse a sick child, besides buying games and toys at the shops. The child enjoys the toys she makes herself better than any other kind. A paper tablet, pencil, crayons and scissors are all that are necessary.
 One particular maid ot ten years amused herself through the week ot the humps by making Store Game" There are many things to do for this play. First, she manufactured money by drawing small circles, the size of penny, writing in the disk the amount which the coin was to repre- sent, and coloring it yellow for gold and brown for copper. These circles she cut out, and with them filled her purse. Then she began to make the articles that were to be purchased with the money. Paper dolls came first. With mothers aid she drew a full figure of doil, with dresses, mats and furs complete; and then she coIored to suit her girlish fancy The cutting out was part ot the pleas ure.

OPERATE BICYCLE ON WATER
Long Bar Has WingIike Floats at Two Sections to Support It-Pro-
 peIier Placed at Rear.

Decidedly unique is the water bi- cycle patented by an Illinois man and shown in the illustration. A long bar has winglike floats at two sections to support it, and at the rear end is a propeller. This propeller IS operat- ed by pedals, that drive small wheel depending from the back, and by a gear in front, that is turned by the hands. This grives double impetus to the revolutions of the shaft. The rider" lies on his stomach along the top of the bar, and his chin rests in a pivoted support that turns the rudder, which is in front. By turning his head one way or the other the opera tor can steer easily and well. While

Sailed Away on the Big Ship.

"and we will find Melissa and Eus- tace."
 So one day Jerome, with his moth CT and FritZie, sailed away on a big ship, the same as Melissa had, for the big country called America. But there was no smiling face awaiting them as there had been. for Melissa, and Jerome and his mother were able to speak only a few words in English. so that when they landed in America they had to show all their money, and had it not been for a kind-hearted man, who met his wife and children, who were on the ship with Jerome and his mother, they would have oeen sent back to Germany. New York was much larger place than they had supposed, and they did not find Melissa and Eustace Their little stock ot money grew smaller, and one morning, when Jerome started out looking for his sister and also for work, he said to his mother: 'I think will take Fritzie with me; perhaps can get a few pennies for his tricks"

Jerome put Fritzie through his tricks, and the children laughed and danced around Fritzie, who was hap. pier than he had been since he land ed in the strange country, when sud- denly he broke through the crowd and ran into the store barking. Jerome followed as quickly as he could, and there was Melissa with Fritzie in her arms, crying and hugging him, and in an instant Jerome was being hugged until he scarcely could breathe.
 Then Eustace came and went for the mother, and you never saw such happy people. And Fritzie danced around h1m, and was patted and praised, tor had he not been the one to first see Melissa and bring the family together again! And after all the excitement was over, Melissa told them how Eustace had been very ill and was taken to the hospital, and she had written to them and waited tor letter and none came, and then when Eustace was well he wrote to Germany and found they had left,

and no one knew where they were. But where were Melissa's letters? That was the strange part. But after awhile that was explained. Melissa could not leave the store, and gave the letters to boy to put in the let ter box. He thought she was sending money to her people, and he opened and destroyed them. And all this time poor Melissa was crying because she did not hear from home, and Jerome and his mother were sailing to a strange country to find her.
 Fritzie became the most popular dog in the neighborhood, and was pointed out for many years as the dog that united family.

HOW JEROME FOUND HIS SISTER.
coPSRfOHT WNtCW9t SENoRaPeS SynotcAr6hf

Jerome and Melissa lived in Ger many. Their father died and they had to help their mother earn money to support the home. Melissa was to be married as soon as Eustace, who had gone to America, should send the ticket, and he had been gone three years. He wrote in his last letter that the next time he wrote the let ter would contain the ticket for Me lissa to come to him, and now in the little cottage, where Melissa and Je- rome lived with their mother great preparations were being made for the voyage. There was a good business for Jerome and his mother, and they would be able to support themselves when Melissa had gone, for Jerome carried to the village each morning in his little cart bread and cake made by his mother and Melissa, and be- sides liking the good thinks that he brought the customers were always glad to see Jerome and hear his cheery Gut Morgen!"
 Then one day Melissa sailed away on the big ship. There were tears ill Melissa's eyes as she said good-by to her mother and Jerome. "As soon as Eustace and I have a good business" she said, there will be a letter with tickets for you, and we shall be to- gether again."
 There is another member of the family of which I have not told you Fritzie, Jerome's dog, dachshund. He was Jerome's constant compan- ion, and when the ship sailed away with Melissa, and Fritzie saws the tears rolling down Jerome's cheeks, he tried in all the ways that dog can to show his sympathy, and when the tears kept on falling, he tried to win his smiles by doing all the tricks that Jerome had taught him, and they were many.
 By and by a letter came from Me 1issa, and each week they heard from her how the grocery store which Eus- tace and she had bought was paying and that soon they would have home ready for her mother and Jerome. And suddenly the letters stopped, and weeks went by. and then it was months, and no money came.
 We will take our money and go to America" said Jerome one, day after his mother had cried all night,

American textiles have been mak ing rapid advances in fineness and dis tinction of weave This holds good es- pecially of cotton, but is true of wool and silk as well. This remarkable advance in the art of weaving is brought forcibly to mind by the new
 fabric furs" manufactured for the coming season. Last year we called them "fur-cloths," which is a truly descriptive name for them. But man. ufacturers, having made some of them 10 like the fur of animals in appear ance. have newly named them, and fabric furs they are.
 Not all of the cloths of this kind are woven to initiate furs. Some of them are supple with silky surfaces and are used for costumes. Many others are of a heavy fur-like texture and are used for topcoats and as trimmings on other cloths. With the advance of the season they are like ly to appear often in muffs and neck pieces. Already at the milliners be- witching three-piece sets, including turban. huff and neckpiece, are shown made up in these fabrics, and often they are trimmed with bands of real fur. These new textiles are rich in appearance and very durable. They combine the warmth of fur with

SUMMER VACATION FOR GIRLS
Time Hanging Heavily on Her Hands May Be ProfitabIy Spent In Many
 Interesting Ways.

CMona V. Lace. Colorado Experiment
 Station.)
 Every young girl looks forward to a summer of rest, but after the first few weeks of vacation are over she begins to find time hanging heavily on her hands. There are many interesting ways in which this time may be profit ably spent. Here are few things some girls are doing: Collecting art copies and writing a short history of each; collecting authors photographs and learning their life histories, and prominent books they have written; making scrapbook and forming his- tory with cartoons from the leading magazines; making scrapbooks with pictures from magazines for little chill dren in the winter. If any girl Is so fortunate as to have access to an at tic full of old magazines she may make an interesting collection of pie lures of women and dating each, which will show the extremely varied girls are busy on their fair work, mak- ing jellies or canning fruits and label ing them attractively. Others are busy with fancy work.
 These hints will probably suggest others to anyone interested, and every girl who will try some means of pass ing her summer will find she has a feeling of satisfaction when school time comes again.

Several leagues postponed their sched-
ules during the week and rolling was
somewhat light on the local runways.
Just to liven things up Dad Huntington
sprung another new one on Omaha bowl
ing circles, by pulling off a big New
Years eve party at his alleys. Special
matches were played for prizes by both
men and women bowlers. Miss Lois Nes-
bit won first prize in the women's con-
tests with 201, Miss Rauber I'd with 1877,
Miss Bruck Sd with 1s1, Miss Goerne 4th
with 1877. Miss McGreer 5th with 1S1 and
Mrs Evans 9Th with 179.
For the men Jimmy Jarosh won first
prize with pa. Other prizes were won
by G. Toman, ]. Meister. C. zeist, w.
Hageman and ]. Kieny.
Refreshments were served to all and
a five-piece orchestra added tone to. the
festivities A few who couldn't make
! hot, hal IN he aio n
Dads alleys, making it necessary for
them to be recoated and repolished.
Bowling Notes.
The Clara Bellies are averaging 2.S73 in
the Booster league.
Grin Doherty is back In the 500 class
for week at least.
Joe Dober still contends he will lead
the Gate City league.
A sight we never expected to see. Con
Stegner shooting a hook.
At least four Omaha teams plan to en-
ter the A b tournament at Toledo.
Watch that Omaha league race. -Four
teams are in the running for the lead.
The Ford Motor league has disbanded.
owing to so many players attending the
Ford school of instruction at nights.
McShane of the Byrne- Hammer team
has refused to sell his bowling shoes
which means that he still thinks he is a
bowler
Nelson of the Walnut Grove team Is the
most consistent shooter in the league
His games never vary over five pins
from each other.
Pat Haley, our bowling friend from
Des Moines, dropped In to look us over
New Years day. Pat is still praising the
Omaha Middlewest tournament.
President Ries. who won the BOBBY
prize i'm the Midwest tournament, Is
after the same prize in the metropolitan
league, by the looks of hts last few
games. He doesn't even beat Shark
Hempe any more.
The next big tournament will be the
International at Minneapolis. February IL.
Omaha bowlers do not patronize this
tournament as much as they. do the
Middlewest and American Bowling con
gress but it is thought at least one
picked team will enter she northern meet.
Last year the Burgess-Nash team entered.
