Sleepy Time Story That Is In.
structive and Entertaining.
FISH THAT BUILDS A NEST.
Remarkable Little Creature That pi..
plays Great Ingenuity In Constructive
Home For lie Children Eat.
Nsighbors' 6abiss-A cornfieId Lady.
Tonight, said Uncle Ben. I am going
to tell you about
FATHER srIcKLEsAcK.

What do you think of fish that
builds a nest" asked Uncle Ben.
nest down in the water?" echoed
little Ned and Polly Ann.
YES" replied Ben, "a nest that looks
very much like the nests the birds
build in the treetops.
The fish is named the stickleback.
The father fish builds the nest and
takes care of the little ones.
THE fish do not live in the nest, but
the wife lays the eggs from which the
young fish hatch inside Of it.
"The nest has two doors, and they
open in such directions that the ocean
current passes through them instead
OF beating against the frail walls Of
the nest and battering them down, as
it might do in time.
1.-THE gum with which the fish CLUES
together the parts Of the nest is spun
out of its body. just as the spider
spins out the silk for its web.
Mrs. Stickleback is q great gadder.
After she leaves the eggs in the nest
she goes swimming of and never both
ers about the little fishes.
"Father Stickleback, who has built
the nest. watches over it till the little
ones come out of the eggs. Then he
guards them until they are old enough
to take care of themselves.
"It must be fine thing to see him
swimming about with his little ones
flocking about him. If any strange
fish tries to bother them Father Sickle
back flies at him in fine rage, and It
is apt to go hard with the one who
makes the trouble, for sticklebacks are
fine fighters. They have row of sharp
spines on their backs. and with these
they can rip and tear their enemies
severely. ef.
although so kind to their own young
ones. the sticklebacks are not so good
to the young of other fishes Indeed,
1t is said that 1t is their weakness for
making a meal of their neighbors' ba-
bies that has made them so disliked
by the other dwellers In the water.
There is one family Of sticklebacks
that live In the ocean, and they make
their nests Of seaweeds gummed to.
gether with sticky thread which the
fish supplies.
''There are other sticklebacks that
! live in fresh water, and their nests are
made of small sticks and twigs which
they can gather together on the river
bottom and are glued together by
means Of the sticky liquid which the
fish provides.
1.-THE openings in the nest are always
turned the same way that the water
runs, so that it may sweep through In
stead of against the sides Of the nest.

going like hot cakes.
This time last year the weather

keep warm.

frank to state that during the last
few years this city has taken on quite
classy appearance in the matter Of
dress. ! don't want to infer that
Omaha has not been classy for a long
time, but there are signs of general
prosperity. On the street one notices
many well-dressed men and women,

Berlin Sends Report Of Conflict
That Differs From the
Paris Account.
NO LOSSES ARE ADMITTED

Berlin, July 1.-(Via London. Re
coinnoitering attacks by French and
British troops along the western
front during the night were in all
cases repulsed by the Germans, the
war office announced today:
The official statement says:
Western 'front.' Repeated French
and British accommodating attacks
during the night were everywhere re-
pulsed. A number of prisoners and
some material remained in our hands.
"The attacks were preceded by in
tense fire, gas attacks and mine ex-
plosions.
Early this morning activity ap-
preciably increased on both sides of
the Somme.
Northeast of Rheims and north
Of lie Mesnil minor operations Of
the enemy infantry failed.
Local infantry engagements oc-
Cured west of the Mouse. On the
eastern bank the French attempted
to recapture position on Froide Terre
ridge and in the Thiaumont works.
They brought up strong masses Of
troops in an endeavor to take these
positions by storm. On the basis
of an unimportant success at the be-
ginning the French announced in ad-
vance last night the recapture Of
the Thiaumont works. In reality the
attack of the French failed every
where with the most severe losses.
The men who penetrated our lines at
various points were captured. Only
prisoners set foot in the original ar
mored works.
German patrols were engaged in
successful encounters north of Parroy
wood and west of Menones.
"In the towns Of Doul, Bapaume,
Peronne and Nesle, numerous French
inhabitants were killed or wounded by
French and British gun fire and air
craft bombs.
Eastern front: Army group Of
General Won Linsingen, west of Kol-
XII, southwest of Sokul and near Vic
zyny, Russian positions have been
captured. West and southwest of
Lutsk the fighting continues in our
favor.
"The Russians yesterday lost in
prisoners fifteen officers and | ,365 men
and since June 10 they have lost TWEEN
ty-six officers and 3,l65 men.

Utah Supreme Court
Disbars @. q. Hilton

Salt Lake City, Utah, July THE
Utah supreme court, in . hnanimous
opinion handed down today, disbarred
D. N. Hilton OF Denver from practice
in the courts Of Utah. Hilton was
chief consul for Joseph Hilstrom, the
Industrial Worker of the World
leader who was executed here No
vember 10 for the murder Of ], 6.
Morrison and son. Charges against
Hilton were preferred by the Utah
Bar association, based largely on re-
marks made by Hilton at Hilstrom's
funeral in Chicago few days after
the execution. The supreme court
holds that Hilstrom's charges Of Nor
mon church influence in the courts of
Utah are without basis in fact and
constitute villification Of the church
as we'll as unprofessional conduct by
Hilton. All members Of the supreme
court are non-Mormons.

THE ground formerly occupied by the

entire tract is covered with beautiful

OF Omaha
Victor avenue has been cut through
the property between Sixteenth and
Eighteenth streets. In plating, a
special effort has been made SO that
neither streets nor houses will re-
move the valuable trees.
One special feature has been the
placing of water, sewer and gas in
side the property line, instead of in
the center of the street, which is
usually customary. This prevents
cutting of the pavement later and
saves the buyer considerable money
in bringing this improvement inside
OF the lot
The John Grant Paving company
will begin paving both Victor and
Willis avenues early in July.
