Royal Bengal Rugs Reflect the Beauty
of the Orient

Royal Bengal Rugs are true copies of Oriental Rugs. repro
duced in the exact colors aud intricate designs that have
made orcntals So much admired.
But Royal lcngals are made in America. under sanitary
conditions that do not surround the weaving Of rugs in the
Orient.
The yarns used are from the Orient. because this particular
kind of wool is toughest. strongest and most resilient. and
gives greater wear.
Once already since the beginning Of the European a the prices Of
Royal Bengal Rugs have risen. This O. due to the scarci,v
of dyes aud the difficulty in getting woods from the Orient.
Royal Bengal Rugs will give you all the beauty and richness Of ori.p.

STATE FAIR GROUND
TITLE Is IN DOUBT
Land Commissioner Shumway
Discovers Probable Defect
in the Abstract.
MAY NOT BE SERIOUS

tFrom a Staff correspondent)
Lincoln, Jan. 26--(Special. LAND
Commissioner Shumway is not sure
that the state owns the fair grounds,
for which $4,000 was paid to the Me-
braska Exposition company, a private
corporation of Lincoln citizens. IN
1901, The question was suggested at
a committee meeting Of the house
Thursday, when the proposed $lOO,00o
hog barns were discussed.
Mr.. Shumway, looking up the abb
stract, finds articles Of corporation
contained therein, which give the cor
poration power ''to purchase, hold and
improve He does not find them en-
titled to sell. s.a' .s
He is inclined to believe, however.
that the statute Of limitation would
clear the states title, after the ground
had been held by adverse possession
for sixteen years.

McShane Submits Bill
For Boarding Sentenced Men


Lincoln, Jan. 26-(Special.) --Al.
though the 1915 legislature left It to
the counties to transport criminals to
the penitentiary, former Sheriff F. ].
McShane Of Douglas county, has
filed with the state auditor a claim for
$50 for boarding prisoners, after they
had been convicted and sentenced.
The county had evidently turned
down the claim, The county has filed
with the state claim for over $1,000
for Transporting prisoners to the peni-
Tertiary and for expenses in procuring
fugitives from justice.
Sheriff Stapleton Of Keya Paha
county, is asking $o5.05 for taking
juvenile offenders to detention homes.
The last Legislature, intending to re-
peal this law too, made no appropria-
ton for such expenses. But the re-
pealing act was forgotten, so the
claim under the statutes will likely
be held just one.
The city Of Lincoln is asking ST.
26S.95 for the states share .of resur-
facing Fourteenth street past the cap
