SKIRTS ARE OFTEN DANGER

A foreign item says that styles do
not change in Servia, and that it is
customary for woman there to
weave skirt and wear it for twenty
years. The Servian woman, more
over, is not the only skirt-wearer in
that country The men often wear
skirts that reach to their knees, even
the soldiers in the rencent war going
into battle with that sort of chorus
girl regalia on. But the Servian men
are not at all effeminate. The fact
that some Of them wear skirts is no
Indication that they carry vanity
bags and powder their noses. In fact
if you were in Servia, and you may
be very glad that you are not, and
should happen to speak gruffly to a
Servian gentleman arrayed in what
looked to you like an abbreviated pet
ticoat, he would be very likely to
draw butcher knife from his plaque
and carve his initials on your wish
bone. And if you were to meet a
skirted Servian with mustache grow
ing clear back to his ears and should
allude to him as bearded lady, or
something else funny like that, most
likely he would catch you by the slack
of your neck and hack leg off of
you with a scythe blade drawn from
his chemise, or whatever it is he
wears under his dress. If you ever go
to Servia maybe it would be good
idea for you to avoid skirts altogeth-
er. Sometimes that is not bad idea
in most any old country.

T. P. Gilmore and family, and mo-
toncycle with side car, occupied by q
man and woman, tourists, collided at
the intersection of Sixth and Erie
streets about $3.50 a. M, today.
The strangers were going west on
the north side of Erie street, and the
Gilmores coming from the west, were
Just turning from Erie to go north on
Sixth, when the collision occurred, 4
few feet northwest of the "Silent
Policeman"
The man driving the motorcycle
had his left leg wedged between the
auto and the cylinders of the cycle.
He suffered a compound fracture OF
the lower end of the fibula and tibia
He was taken at once to the office of
Drs. Tamisiea, and. was given atten-
ton by Drs. Tamisiea, DeVore and
Hoefer 4.
After consultation, the doctors de-
cided to have the unfortunate tourist
taken to an Omaha hospital. The
woman, who occupied the side car Of
the motorcycle. was not injured, re-
ceiving but a slight abrasion on the
left arm.
The occupants of the Gilmore car
received no injuries. The damages
sustained by the vehicles were slight.
An air of mystery seems to enshroud
the identity of the two tourists. The
injured man was in no condition to
talk and the woman refused to tell
their names to a Times reporter. She
stated, however, that they were in
England in 1914, and that the man
served in the army throughout the
war, having been wounded number
of times. In answer to questions,
she said they were enroute from De-
troit, Mich, to Sacramento, Calf.
where they intended to reside. Also
stated that they We're married some
l5 years ago and had lived in Seat
tie, Wash, previous to 1914. How
ever, to an attorney, she refused to
give any street addresses of the
places claimed as home.
just before the alto left Omaha, to
take her, and the injured man to the
hospital, she said her name was Clar-
ice Priestly and the man was R. R.
Priestly. The motorcycle bore Michi-
gan license plate, No. 6679.
