CLOTHES "Tai.
~ lored to Measure
by Born" are best
known, perhaps, for
their rem arkable
wearing qualities.
The woolens are
carefully selected and
tested; they are pains
takingly tailored un,
der intelligent super.
vision.
Yet Born prices are
actually lower than
the figures often asked
for clothes of uncer.
tain quality.
If you like the idea
Of fine clothes at a
modest price, we will
gladly show you some
very intere TING
values.

Alleging that his wife eloped with
Joe Ceganik, friend of the family.
taking $40 of his money, their bed
covers, pillows and feather mattress
to help them set up housekeeping in
some place where they can conceal
their whereabouts from him, John
kusmith, federal Plate Glass district
grocer, today appealed to Sheriff Ayers
and his deputies to help him find the
man who stole HIS mate and his per-
sonal belongings that went with the
alleged absconders.
Yesterday, according to the story
told the officials by the unfortunate
man. Mrs. kusmith told him to go to
town and get some meat He, like a
dutiful husband should, left on the er.
rand. When he returned he found
Mrs. Kusmith gone, no trace obtain.
able of the erstwhile friend Of the
family, Ceganik, and the interior of
their home bearing every appearance
OF having been ransacked from top to
bottom, and everything of any value
gone.
Suspecting Immediately on his dis
covery that things at home were not
as they should be, that his money
probably had disappered, too, he went
to the clothes where he kept his wal
let and found only $50 where there
should have been an even $500. Il
was apparent that the elopers, if, they
did elope. We're considerate enough of
the husband leave him a little money
to get along on until he had a fresh
start and decided to let him keep $50
In the bed room, Kusmith told TIE
authorities. he found the cover, pill
low and feather mattress had been
torn from the bed and bundled off
with the fleeing mate.
Kusmith before notifying the sher.
iff, conducted quiet search for evi-
dence of the couple, and says he dis
covered they went west yesterday
morning on the 1910 Rock Island
, train
The husband in this unusual tri
angle has had troubles heaped upon
his head in large loads during the
past few months Aside from the
conduct of his wife he has been raid
ed twice for evidence of operating a
hootchery at his store. He was ar
rested only a few days ago and placed
placed under bonds, which were sign
ed by friend Cegank, the man he
now charges stole his mate.
Not long ago the store was burned
down. it being then charged that the
| fire was started by some enemy of
Johns. No trace was ever obtained
sof the alleged incendiary.

are few and far between. For tha
reason the administration decided Il
could afford to celebrate the success
of the bond issue.
Commissioner Sticklen and a lowly
scribe together with the clerk were
on hand for the meeting which never
took place. Commissioner Doughertv

1t is expected that the special meet
ing to canvass the election returns
will be held some time tomorrow
when anyone having business before
the council will be given a chance
to be heard.
