 More than score of display pictures were thus taken, among which was :. Sb enlargement of particularly at tractive siren. The English language was incapable of expressing the opin- ion of Manager Art Rick regarding the affair when he learned of the depreda - ton. Absolutely ince pable.

more remarkable showing is pre-
dicted for the Omaha district.
Recruiting stations for all four
branches of the military service were

ems Service league and the Red
Cross society, will be opened next
door to the Guard and navy stations
on Sixteenth street, in the First Ma
tional bank building. ~.

bring appreciable results Immediately.
Army recruiters scored total of
nineteen men accepted and sent to
the training station Saturday. Sixty
others had been enlisted before Sat-
urday during the week. ...
The navy recruiters also did big
things Saturday. They signed, up

EASTER REAL DAY OF
SUNSHINE And SONG
After a Saturday Of Storm and
Snow Easter Morn Awakens
With New Life and JOY.
END OF LENTEN SEASON

Following a Saturday OF execrable
weather conditions, Easter dawned
yesterday amid a flood Of glorious
sunshine which heartened thousands
of hopeful hearts. 1t almost seemed
as il the god OF nature had been in
tentionally benehcent Milady re-
tired to her boudoir at the close of
the week, hoping against hope that
she would appear i'll the Easter pa
rade and join the spirit of the season.
Rain and snow disappeared, leav-
ing refreshened earth. Cloudless
sky and invigorating atmosphere
added full measure to the perfect
day The day suggested the resur-
rection Of spring.
New Life--New Hope.
The houses of worship were filled
with attendants whose garments and
thoughts gave expression to the be-
ginning of things--the new life--the
new spriugtime and new hopes, Songs
of praise filled the .sanotuaries, and
flowers And smiling faces lent a
charm toy the scene.
Feminine charm. the fairest OF the
west, appeared in pretty frocks,
dresses, suits and hats; of shades Of
green, yellow, gold, purple and other
combinations, presenting a scene
which made glad the heart of man.
Mere man was out with new
necktie or hat or suit and walked
proudly beside his bedecked mate.
In the afternoon the parks and
boulevards were filled with motorists
and pedestrians.
Special Music.
OF course, all of the Christian
churches had special services to mark
the great day of rejoicing, the day
that ends the six weeks period OF
Lenten penitence and marks the res
direction of Christ.
The church choirs had been practic-
ing the special Easter music for
weeks and their anthems rang out
in all the churches. Ministers read
their Bible passages telling of the
resurrection of Christ and preached
upon this great topic.
In most of the churches holy COM
munion was celebrated. The decora-
tions everywhere were lilies and other
flowers and palms.
The evening services in number
of churches were conducted by the
Sunday school. There were recita-
tions by the children and exercises
significant of the occasion, as well as
special songs, published specially for
Easter programs by Sunday schools.
Baptisms and reception OF the new
members marked the day in some OF
the churches. Another feature of the
day was the sunrise prayer meet
ings," held by the young peoples So
cieties in some churches, these meet
ings being held at $50 or 7 a, M.

SEVENTY-ONE
BILLS ARE SIGNED
Sixteen Senate Measures and
Fifty.Five House
Rolls. g..
TWO ARE SENT BACK


Lincoln, April S.-(Special. .)--Sev-
enty-one bills had been signed by the
governor Saturday night, when he
closed up the executive Offices and
went home for a quiet Sabbath. OF
these sixteen were senate bills and
fifty-fve house rolls. Two bills have
been sent back without the executive
approval.
Tomorrow the two bodies will again
convene to grind out some more.
There are still some important bills
which have not seen the light OF day.
Many of them are for appropriations,
while some cover other matters. The
dry bill is the center of observation
and this week will probably see some
work done by the conference COM
mittees appointed to fix the matter
up. The house has a conference COM
mittee which is distressingly dry
looking at it from wet standpoint,
while the senate committee is brew
erized," looking at il from the dry
side. What the outcome will be the
one who knows is keeping silent.
Some so so far to declare that the
2 per cent near beer amendment is
unconstitutional, basing their opinion
on the proposition that the amend
ment denies the manufacture and sale
of any malt liquors. However, this
opinion is said to come from those
who couldn't tell near beer from the
kind which has closer acquaintance
to the real article and SO is no: good
authority.
1t is expected that much time will
be taken up this week on the dry
bill, while the state house apppro-
priation, the state printing plant ap-
preparation, the one-mill rural school
appropriation and several others are
still to be lifted by the senate sitting
committee,

Nantucket shoals are only eighty

Newport. There were reports today
from widely separated sources that a
raider had been sunk off Nantucket
by a destroyer or submarine. To
quench all such stories naval men
have answered: 1--WE can say moth
