Woodrow Wilson
Wolverton BaWls;
His Daddy Smiles

This was busy day for Ed Wolver-
ton, New York Life Insurance man.
He was busy calling up dozens of
friends and stopping others on the
street and sending kilograms to those
in distant places.
Mr.. Wolverton is frst-class bust
ness man, being a member of the
Five Hundred club" of the company
with which he is affiliated.
We've got a new boy up at our
house
The infant is new, indeed, having
been born Thursday night. The VOL
verton home at 1904 Writ street is
frightened by three other children,
all girls. This is even an additional
reason for big Eds publication over
the arrival Of an heir apparent.
They're all welcome, boys or girls"
he said, "but we are glad this one is
a boy. Variety, you know"
What are you going to name him"
he was asked.
Woodrow Wilson Wolverton," ex-
claimed the proud father without an
instant's hesitation, for Brother VOL
verton is of the democratic persua-
sion. eyes, sir, we're going to name
him after great man, because he'll
be president some day"

WE'D, BUT NOT WED
IS OHI0ANS' PLIGHT
Akron Couple Gets License
Here and Think They Marry
In Canton.
BUT THE LAW SAYS mo"

Somewhere in Ohio" is a young
married couple not legally married,
Sounds paradoxical, but it's fact.
Douglas county court officials are
trying to locate the young people and
notify them that they will have to
obtain another marriage license and
have the ceremony performed over
again.
The thereby lies tale" dates back
to October 8, 1915, when Pavel MILAN,
rs years old, and Miss Florence
Mathews, 10 years old, took out a
marriage license in Douglas county.
Both the young people are Hunga-
rians and gave their place of residence
as Akron, o.
The marriage license has just been
returned to Clyde Sundblad, clerk of
the county court. The license shows
that a marriage ceremony was per-
formed at Canton, O., February 7,
1917, by Rev. Solomon Duma, lS47
Seventh street, N. E.
The marriage was not legal, in view
OF the fact that the license was not
good outside Of Douglas county. Clerk
Sundblad opined that the Rev. Mr..
Duma should study up on the mar
rage license laws of the different
states.

Attempt to Have City's Chief

FOUR ARRESTS ARE MADE

The activities of the grand jury are
becoming fewer each day and unless
something unexpected bobs up soon
rumor has it that the inquisitorial
body will write "fnis" on its 1917
campaign by next week. The bulk
OF the grist now before the closed

grand jury caliber.
Four arrests have been made by
deputy sheriffs in the last twenty-four
hours on capias writs following re-
cent grand jury indictments, They
are:
Harry Silk, Guy Silk and Ray
Strodd, charged with gambling; Della
Harris charged with grand larceny
from the person.
Attorneys for the plaintiff in the
now famous Dahlman automobile suit,
in which the mayor was temporarily
and later permanently restrained from
using city-owned motor cars for any
thing save strictly official business"
are understood to have gone before
the grand jury in an effort to obtain
indictments for alleged misappropria-
ton OF public funds. 1t is rumored
the attorneys were "out of luck in
their quest.
Other witnesses who told the grand
jurymen what they knew about GER

Gloom Attends
Sale Of Farm Loan
Bank Stock Here

Omaha investors evidently are not
very anxious to invest their money
in the new federal farm loan bank,
which the Commercial club and other
local civic organizations made such a
valiant fight to bring to this city.
Subscriptions for capital stock in
the farm bank closed at noon and $34,-
900 was all that had been subscribed
for the local institution.
This $4,000 is pledged in Isl sub
scriptions, sixty-one OF which are
from persons living outside OF Omaha.
The largest subscription for the
Omaha bank is 5000. There are sew
eral Of this sum, but none larger.
The total capitalization OF the bank
will be $750,000. The secretary of the
treasury, for the government, will sub
scribe the remainder Of the stock, over
100000 worth.
II is believed Omaha's stock sub
scription will be the lowest Of any of
the twelve cities favored with the
farm banks.
Internal Revenue Collector Loomis,
who is receiving the stock subscrip-
tons and attending to temporary af-
fairs of the bank, has been advised
that the board OF FIVE directors will
be appointed the fore part OF this
coming week. These directors will
then Immediately begin plans to open
the bank for business.

Fortune in Jewels
Is Lost On Farnam
Street by Woman

Somewhere scattered between Fiji
teenth and Twentieth streets, on Far
nam street, is jewelry worth $500
which Mrs. E. NJ. Reynolds says she
lost Thursday afternoon while on her
way home to the Harley hotel. Mrs.
Reynolds told the police that she had
the jewelry in small satin bag at
tached to her waist. When she ar
rived at the hotel she says the sack
was empty, the contents evidently
having been dropped on the way.
The jewelry described as lost con-
sists of a lavalliere with two half
carat diamonds set in platinum, one
large dinner ring, also with two half
carat diamonds, one solitaire ring with
half-carat diamond and an emerald
and a diamond set in platinum.
Mrs. Reynolds said she highly val
ued the jewelry not so much for its
monetary value as because most of
it was given to her by her mother.

Omaha's north and west limits will

The prospective enlarged area will

small settlement in the southeast

Omaha at present has BIS square
