show merit. At present there are
800 boys enrolled i'm the school. The
yearly enrolment amounts TO 500

This school has the highest paid in
structors Of any school in the United
States. as each man is a specialist
in his department

the boys graduating from this insti-
tuition ever return. We rely entirely
upon the boys honor and devotion

bad qualities.

Army Balloon Breaks
Loose, Explodes and

One of the large army propaganda
balloons broke away at Fort Omaha
at 9 o'clock yesterday wandered
for an hour above the clouds over
the city, exploded and landed a
wreck in the tops of some trees at
Fifteenth and Pierce streets.
The balloon was inflated with
1000 cubic feet of gas when it broke
from it's moorings. The huge gas
bag is believed to have exploded
when it assembled to an altitude
where the air was so light It could
not resist the pressure.
About half Of the balloon and .
large sand bag was all that remain
ed of the craft after its wild flight
The wreck was gathered up by two
policemen and returned to the for;.
Thousands of Omahans watched
the exploding gas bag. Fearing that
there were men in the basket of the
balloon, hundreds OF persons called
newspaper offices, the police depart
ment and other sources of informa-
ton in effort to obtain news about
the accident.

thin PEOPLE
SHOULD take
PHOSPHATE


Judging from the countless prepare
tions and Treatments which are contin-
ually being advertised for the purpose
Of making thin people fleshy. develop
Ing arms. neck and bust, and replacing
ugly hollows and angles by the soft
curved lines of health and beauty, there
are evidently thousands of men and
women who keenly feel their excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due
TO starved nerves. Our bodies need more
phosphate than Ii contained in modern
foods. Physicians claim there is nothing
that will supply this deficiency so well
rs the organic phosphate known among
druggists as bitro- phosphate, which is in
expensive and is sold by Sherman & Nc
Connen in Omaha and most all druggists
under 3 guarantee of satisfaction or money
back. By feeding the nerves directly and
by supplying the body cells with the
necessary phosphoric food elements, bitro-
phosphate should produce q welcome trans
formation in the appearance: the increase
in weight frequently being astonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with II
. general Improvement In the health.
Nervousness. sleeplessness and lack of
energy, which nearly always accompany
excessive thinness, should soon disappear,
dull eyes ought to brighten and pale
.heeks glow with the bloom Of perfect
health.
CAUTION. - Although bitro-p phosphate

should not, owing to its tendency to in
crease weight, be used by anyone who

PAVING BONDS

Officials Consider ProbabiIi.
ties of Investors Refusing
to Pay Par for 5 Per
Cent Paper.

Is there a "joker" in the $4,000, 900
county road paving act which was
voted by the people at the special
election Tuesday?
This is a question that was asked
at the court house yesterday, in the
midst of the good feeling occasioned
by the passage of the bond resolu-
ton at the election.
Here's the state of facts:
The election proclamation states
that the bonds shall draw mot more
than 5 per cent per annum inter-
est"
County Attorney Shotwell says
the bonds cannot be sold at less than
par.
Suppose the state of the bond
market is such that bond houses
don't care to pay par for a Douglas
county bonds, what will become of
the proposition them" asked bust
ness man.
AT the present state of the bond
market" said County Commissioner
Unit, there will be no difficulty in
selling the Douglas county bonds
at more than par. City and county
bonds are selling at present so that
they yield investors only from 4.30
to $50 per cent. OF course, we can't
tell what will be the condition of
the bond market by the time we sell
these bonds. But I think there is
no doubt we con float these bonds
at 5 per cent and sell them at a sub
stantial premium or else make
them AZ per cent bonds and sell
them around par"
II think the bonds are safe" said
County Commissioner O'Connor,
though there is the possibility that
the bond market might become such
that S per cent bond could not be
sold at par"
Election Commissioner Moor
head will start the official count of
the vote Friday morning and ex-
poets to certify the returns to the
board of county commissioners
Saturday. Advertisement of the
bonds will begin early next week.
