CANNOT SELECT
ROADS BEFORE
BOND ELECTION
County Attorney Vetoes Pro.
cedure of Board In Select
ing Route Of Proposed :.
Paving Now.

County Attorney Shotwell shot a
bombshell into the meeting of the
board Of county commissioners and
delegations of paving-seekers yester-
day when he gave his opinion that
the petition and proclamation which
must precede the special election on
the 100000 paving bonds cannot
contain any designation of the coun-
ty roads to be paved.
This is exactly the opposite Of
what the county commissioners,
Chamber of Commerce, Automobile
club, Rotary club, Real Estate board
and others interested in having the
paving done thought was neces-
sary.
These bodies toiled hard for
months to agree on the roads to be
raved with the 100000.
Agree on Roads.
Last Saturday there was a mass
meeting and, after some turmoil
the roads were designated and
adopted by large vote. The COM
missioners and others who had been
toiling heaved great signs of relief.
Now, according to. the county at
torney's opinion, all that labor was
wasted.
The county attorney based his
opinion on a decision handed down
by the Nebraska supreme court last
January in case from Platte
county in which suit was brought
to enjoin issue of bonds to build a
new county court house. The reason
advanced for the injunction was
that in the bond election the loca-
ton of the court house was desig-
mated.
The supreme court held that the
power to designate the location of
the court house is vested in, the
county commissioners and that
when the location was named in the
petition for the election to vote the
bonds, this power was taken from
the commissioners contrary to law.
Mr.. Shotwell says this was a paral-
lei case with the proposed special
election for bonds to pave Douglas
county roads.
Board Likes Decision.
The county commissioners believe
that this decision will clear the Sit
uation on the 100000 bond issue
and make sure that they will carry
by the necessary three-fifths vote.
If all the roads were designated
in the proclamation, nearly every
farmer whose farm was not reached
by paving was ready to vote against
the bonds. With no roads desig-
mated, every farmer will vote for the
bonds in the hope of getting paving,
it is believed.
A delegation of citizens of Saun-
ders county from Yutan, Meade and
Wahoo visited the commissioners
and assured them that they ARE go
ing to have bridge over the Platte
river" preferably on the Center
street road.
This is an absolute necessity, they
said, to Omaha as we'll as to Saun-
ders county, where hundreds of farm
ers are waiting with trucks to haul
livestock to Omaha as soon as they
have bridge.

Judge Holmes in municipal court
yesterday afternoon handed down a
Judgement of $237.34 in favor OF
George c. Chrisman who brought an
action for $Sl644 against peggy
Sellers, and the Judge announced
that Peggy's counterclain for $2,500
was not sustained by the evidence.
The judgment entered in favor
of Chrisman represents three hotel
bills made out to Peggy and paid
for by Chrisman.
"The other items specified in the
Chrisman claim" the court stated,
were not identified by times and
places except the $500 paid by Chris
man to Mrs. Sellers on February %,
and she claimed that the money was
paid for two kisses. On that point l
would say that Mr.. Chrisman is a
better judge than I am to state
whether the kisses were worth $780,"
Amount Not Allowed.
The court, however, was inclined
to believe that the $l00 was paid
for the kisses and he did not allow
this amount in Chrisman's claim.
During the week before Easter
Sunday Chrisman went into mu-
nicipal court and obtained a writ Of
attachment against Peggy's' per-
sonal effects. based on an alleged
claim of $8l6.44, said to have been
items of money advanced by Chris
man during a period of several
months. Chrisman, who is a e.
year-old business man, contended
that Peggy promised to repay him
the money; that she claimed to have
had rich father and that she was
going to receive money from home
and commissions for Oil land leases
she had sold.
Tells of Kisses.
The 1o-yearold bride on the wit
ness stand testified that one OF the
items of $500 claimed by Chrisman
was paid to her on Washington's
birthday of this year, for two of her
best kisses implanted on Chrisman's
cheeks, with his full knowledge and
with an understanding that she was

to receive the money for the oscula-
tory attentions. Chrisman said
Peggy had kissed him on various
occasions, but that he had never ne
gotated with her for kisses. He
and the 500 was given her to pay
| for a dress.
Chrisman testified that he kept a
record in little red book of all
money paid out for Peggy. The
young woman, supporting her coun-
ter claim for $780, testified that
she posed fot Chrisman as a Ken
lucky heiress, learned the southern
dialect at his behest, "stuck around
to add prestige to the business" was
introduced as the mascot of the COM
pany, as Chrisman's protege, and
performed other services while as
ISOLATED in business with Chris
man.
She Called Him Daddy"
Letters and kilograms showed that
Peggy referred to Chrisman as
Daddy" and that be called her
Peggy" that he wrote to her in
endearing terms. told her she was
the cleanest-souled girl in the world,
and that his 'love for her was of
kind that only God could bestow
upon mere man. Peggy wrote to
Daddy" Chrisman to have little
patience and he would have his
hearts desire"
The evidence extending over sew
eral days showed that Chrisman
paid Peggy's bills while they were
living at the Castle hotel, that he
paid Sill in Chicago for a bill of
goods, and had otherwise served as
banker for the diminutive bit of
femininity.
Peggy testified that Chrisman told
her he would back her for $4,000
when she was considering obtaining
divorce from Jimmy" and that
he (Chrisman) would take care of
her if Jimmy did not do the right
thing.
Bills Pour In.
Chrisman stated during the hear
ing that $Sl6.44 specified in his &C
ton, did not represent all of the
money he had paid out for Peggy,
that there would be $500 more, as
bills were still coming in. Peggy
admitted that Chrisman spent ap-
proximately 81 500 and she believed
that it was money well spent, because
she claimed to have taken Chrlsman
on a trip to Kentucky and shown
him oil lands on which he will real
ize thousands.
Peggy was married in Omaha on
December 18, 1918, to James A. Sell
lers, of Belle PLANE, la. On Wash
ington's birthday anniversary she
kissed Chrisman twice for 500.

Science Learned Much
From Recent Lava Flow

HILO, Nov. 25-The mysteries of a-a
lava, the mechanism of it's flow, and
its behavior in motion to a large ex-
tent have been solved by the recent
great eruption at Mauna Loa, n of
the volcanoes on this island, accord
ing to Professor T. A. Jaggar, Jr.
~volcanologist.
Although there has been ample op.
p~ortunity to study the mechanism OF
%pahoehoe, or soft lava flows, "a, or
the rough variety, has been more OF
less a sealed book to science, said
Professor Jaggar.
On his last trip Professor Jaggar
crossed the active assure at a time
when activity was confined to the one
large cone. Shortly afterwards four
smaller cones south of the fountain
head burst into life with a loud roar
ing, putting noise, and sent a stream
of lava westward, paralleling that
from the main one
Along the eastern side of the fissure
the country was found to have been
built up to a great height by the
earlier output of cones now lifeless.
AS the flow died away, the source re-
treated northward up the mountain.
The cone from which issued the
greater bulk of the earlier Alika flow
is now dead. The professor climbed
this cone and looked down from its
topmost edge into a great amphit-
heater 800 feet deep and 1000 feet
wide.
After watching the two flows Pro
fessor Jaggar verified by measure
ments a conjecture which he first
made while observing the pulsations
Of the Alika channel. He noted then
that the torrent of fire had moments
when the stream seemed to rise along
it's whole length. Immediately it was
suggested to him that the whole flow
was alive, the bed of the stream as
well as the river it bore. The rise, he
believed, must be a rise Of the bed
itself, heaved upward by pressure
from living depths below.
The basin receiving the present re-
duced outpouring, the professor said,
is of such extent that it could not be
flooded brimful before the first of next
year and before that time, judging
from the ~lessening activity, the pres
ent great flow of Mauna Loa will be
dead.
