Those Fascinating Pictures.


Just now many beautifully colored
fashion catalogues are being received
by women in the city. II there is
anything more delightful than select
ing cne's wardrobe from pictures that
seem to show each woman just as
she wonld like to look, and just as she
truly believes she will look. l don't
know what il is. The artist who drap-
es these paper women with all the
new styles in wearing apparel of all
sorts, surely knows his business.
There is scarcely a woman who does
not fall for tho sort of compliments
he pays her quite subtlely and delight
fully. She sees the slender petite
maiden with the gown so very bewitch
ing. Underneath is written: For all
small women" There is the page for
stout ladies, For overly stout wom-
en- is written underneath. Both wom-
en-, in the picture, have perfect Sc fig
ureS. She says that's funny, they
don't look too thin or too fat and
surely am. It's the dress they're wear
ing. The gown are not expensive eth
err much better price than can get
here" So away goes the check. But
when the dress comes. after much
waiting. it is very seldom the same
gown which is set the pulses beating
in glad anticipation. Usually it does
not fit. often it is not bargain.
1t seldom fails to disappoint in style.
Buying by mail looks all right in the
pictures but after all, there's nothing
quite so satisfactory as going directly
to the source of supply and after
heart to heart talk and fitting, carry
home something one knows about.

Career As Bandit Is 2 +.
Short for Man Who
Attempted Holcur

The career of Luther Richardson,
alias Sam Clark, as a highwayman
was marked by a notable lack of
success.
Last Friday he was free and ap-
parently law abiding citizen. Today
he is a criminal, caught in the act,
and under sentence of from 8 to Is
years in the Nebraska penitentiary.
District Judge Redick sentenced him
yesterday morning.
Last Saturday afternoon Richard
sen held up Lawrence Lee, 403 Ban
croft street and robbed him of $12
and gold watch. Fifteen minutes
after the ho1dup he was shackled
and on his way to the police station,
having been captured by Detectives
Toland and Bauman after running
fight in which Detective Toland
shot eight times and Richardson
seven without drawing any blod.
Richardson said he didn't know
why he had pulled" the daylight
robbery and said he guessed it was
not very profitable business. He
was taken to Lincoln yesterday
morning was in his cell less than
week after he committed the crime.

DODGE STREET
IMPROVEMENTS
MAY Be DELAYED
Question Jurisdiction Of Coun-
Gil to Start Grading Be-
cause Petition On File Is
Incomplete.

The proposed grading and repav-
ing of the Dodge street hill is
threatened with another delay on
account of alleged technical defects
in the proceedings.
A committee of the city council
met this morning to consider the
award of damages which already
amounts to 100000, according to
claims presented by property own
ers of the district.
]. P. Breen, attorney, represent
ing the Masonic Temple association,
questioned the jurisdiction of the
city council to proceed with the
project, and City Attorney F. l..
Weaver expressed doubts whether
the city may proceed with validity.
File Damage Claims.
One of Mr.. Breen's points was
that the petition filed by property
owners for the grading did not en-
brace all of the improvements as
specified in the ordinance creating
the improvement district. He fur
ther contended that the city may
not take into account benefits which
may accrue on account of the
streets being made more accessible
by reason of the grading and repav-
ing.
The following claims for dam
ages were presented to the commit
tee Of the city council: Callahan
Realty company, $4,000; Helen An
derson, $13,586; Alpha camp No. |,
Woodmen of the World, $500;
Jacob Slosberg, $4,000; Mrs. Fer
dinand Adler, $4,000; Nebraska Tel
ephone company, $4,000; St. Mary
Magdalene Catholic church, $50,720;
Masonic temple, $47 ,778; School Dis
trict of Omaha, $4,000; Ella Staple
ton, $4,000.
Special Law Required.
This Improvement has been under
way for several years. The former
city administration obtained passage
of law in the state legislature au-
thorizing the city council to create

one kind of Improvement, and under
that new law the Dodge hill project
was started.
The improvement contemplates
grading Dodge street, from Seven

with re-establishment of the grades
of interesting streets to conform.
The deepest cut would be % feet

Nineteenth and Twentieth streets.
Bids for the work were opened
this week by the city council, which

Prices Of Coffee to Go Up
100 Per Cent After July l
Freezing of Crop in Brazil, From Where Most of Our
Coffee Comes From, Given As Cause for Raise

If you are coffee drinker you

In other words, the price is sched-

per cent. Jobbers have received no.
tice of the advance, and this advance
is all attributed to a frost that last
year destroyed hundreds Of the cof-
fee plantations in Brazil.
As the story goes, and as it is
brought TO the Omaha jobbers, late
last season a regular "norther" blew
over Mexico, down through Central
adm South America. With the
"norther" there was a cold spell Of
unusual severity and it continued
for several days. The result was,
