Sleuths Get Data
For Big Court Case

Several women detectives we're
sent out in Omaha few days ago to
buy "Sunkist" raisins, and in several
cases the grocer sold them Sun
Maid" raisins without any comment.
There was reason for this sly
sleuthing. A big case hangs fire in
the federal district court in New York
state. There the packers OF "Sunkist"
goods are asking the courts for an in
junction against the "Sun Maid" peo-
pie to prevent the latter from using
that name, because the "Sunkist" peo-
pie hold it is too nearly like their
own and was copied after theirs.
They charge an infringement upon
their copyright and trade mark.
As result OF the starting OF this
case attorneys on both sides Of the
fight are travelling all over the United
States taking DISPOSITIONS as to the
condition existing in the local gro
Gerry stores with regard to the sale OF
these two brands of goods, and
whether there is really an infringe
ment.
That is why girls in Omaha we're
hired to play detectives by going out
to buy "Sunkist" products.
Deposition was taken in the office
of Palmer, Taylor & Palmer, in the
Omaha National bank building. r.
w. Byerly, attorney for the plaintiff,
was a Harvard classmate OF Harry
Palmer Of Omaha. Arthur L. Fall
man is the attorney for the defense,
who was in Omaha with Byerly aid
ing in the taking of deposition.

PRIMITIVE BALL
OF GOV. M. ". lizard
Public Reception of Nebraska
Second Territorial Governor
Was Ludicrous.
DANCE ON SCRUBBED FLOOR
By A. r, GROH.

In contrast with the splendid anS

ever witnessed in the history of pub

The ball was first suggested by til,

the territory, and lizard, who was I

1t was held in a little, one-story
house that stood on Harvey street
near Eleventh.
The rooms were plastered with
mud. The floor of rough, unplanet
boards, was scrubbed for the occasion
A cart wheel was suspended in 4
horizontal position from the ceiling
and candles were placed around its
circumference to light up the festive
scene. Benches of rough cottonwood
boards were built around the sides oi
the room.
Dancers Fail Flat.
The great night came. The weather
was dreadfully cold. The heating ap,
paratus failed to work. The water on
the damp floors froze and the ener.
getic application Of green cottonwood
failed to remove all the ice, with the
result that several OF the dancers fell
flat.
Governor lizard arrived very early
at the same time as Jim" Orion Of
Council Bluffs. Jim" was the fiddler
the solitary musician, The governor
greeted him tremendously and "Jim,
who had partaken rather freely Of
fire water, was even more polite thar

Nine ladies were present and sew,
