to the Ground in OMAHA
1t Grew from $500 to
100000.
The experience of Mrs Cuthbert Vncents in
vestments in Omaha Real Estate is a story of
how a $500 investment grew to investments
worth over 100000.
About 20 years ago, Mrs. Vincent bought three
small houses on Michigan street (now Indiana
avenue) between Twenty-third and Twenty
fourth streets. She paid $4,000, paying $500
down. The rent paid the taxes, insurance and
monthly payments, and created small surplus.
She sold this property, after several months, for
$500 cash.
She bought more Omaha Real Estate, and made
money again. She continued her policy of buy
ing Omhaa Real Estate, using the income and
sale profits to buy more property.
Today, Mrs. Vincent's holdings in Omaha Real
Estate are valued at more than 100000. She
owns four pieces of property, each one nearly
all paid for and each one paying handsome
income over and above all carrying charges, in
Guiding loan payments.
Mrs. Vincent now owns the half-block on the
west side of Fortieth street, between Farnam
and Harney, improved with flats and stores;
the southwest corner of Twenty-sixth and Doug
las, 15Ox152, improved with brick flats and
frame house; the northwest corner of Twentieth
and Davenport, brick flat; block of Twenty
fourth street frontage between Evans and Pink
ncy, four duplexes. cottage and brick apartment.

REMARKABLE LADY
ELEPHANT TRAINER
WITH SPARKS CIRCUS

Frances Widener of the Sparks Cir
Gus has perhaps been justly called
the most daring woman in the world
because she is the only woman who
has ever successfully trained large
herd of elephants without the aid of
man. Added to this she possesses all
of the control of the masters OF this
strange and curious art. The Sparks
Circus, which is to exhibit in Fitz-
gerald on Tuesday, October Il, has
always boosted possessing the most
marvelously trained elephants on the
face of the globe, it being conceded
by all show men that they work faster
than any ever before the public and
they are handled, educated and intro
duced by this dainty little woman, who
as before stated, is in class by her
self in a small 40 it. ring with half
a dozen OF these tremendous animals
caperng about you, executing inn
possible stunts, never allowing any OF
them to miss their cues and making
each one perform at an appropriate
moment and at the same time seeing
to it that you are not trampled upon,
manned or otherwise injured yourself,
you are accomplishing what any wo-
man will tell you is one of the most
hazardous of all feats, because no
animal of the menagerie requires
more careful or incessant watching
than the elephant. Of course there
are many other lady animal trainers
with Sparks Circus, for this season
Manager Sparks seems to have spe-
cialized in wild animal acts-for in
stance Madam Dorothy who puts the
large and ferocious group of leopards
thru their pace as nonchalantly and
with the same degree of pleasure as
the average woman in every day life
caresses an ordinary house cat. Both
of these remarkable and fearless wo-
men will be seen at the performance
in this city on October II.
Seats can be secured Circus day al
the National Drug Store, same prices
as at the show grounds.
Circus prices Children under IL yrs
of age Csc; Adults 75c. Will exhibit

PREPARE LAND FOR
PASTURE GRASSES

That there will be several thousand
acres of land seeded to pasture grass
es next spring is the opinion of He.
Appleton, field corps specialist of the
State College of Agriculture. Now is
the time, he says, to prepare the land
for seeding in order that there will be
no delay in starting the pasture at the
RICH time.
''The preparation for lowland pas
ture may be done at odd times during
the off season when the tim devoted
to this operation will hardly be miss
ed" stated Prof. Appleton, "and then
the land will be ready for seeding at
the proper time in the spring.
First, all the merchandise timber
should be cut off and sold, and all 9TH
er trees cut for firewood This would
be profitable in many cases even tho
the land was not to be put in pasture.
All bushes and briars should be cut
and piled with the brush from the
trees so that all may be burned at the
proper time. Burning, however, should
not be done until late winter or early
spring.
"Plowing is rarely a part of the
preparation for lowland pasture. Oc-
casiona1ly in land that has an unusual
ly heavy growth of wild grasses plow-
ing may be desirable. When done it
should by all means be in the fail or
early winter Any narrowing of the
land Should be done Immediately after
blowing"

sum of ST 900 has already been paid
to Mr.. Rhind, and the memorial as
ISOLATION has raised $500 of the
amount necessary for completing the
work. The sculptor has begun work
on the preliminary plaster casts.
Marble for the base of the monu-
ment has been donated by the Geor-
gia Marble Company OF late, ga,
thru the generosity OF sam late ana
Alexander Anderson, officials OF the
corporation, thus reducing material
" the cost OF the memorial. 1t IS stat

TO MARRY
AMERICAN GIRL
King Authorizes Announcement
Of Engagement
BRIDE DAUGHTER OF DOCTOR
Viaoo Renounees All Rights To
Throne, Including Royal Title
Prince is Horse
man.

Copenhagen. - King Christian
consented to public announcement
of the engagement of his young
kinsman, Prince Viggo, and Miss
Eleanor Margaret Green, daugh-
ter of DIR. J. o. Green, of New
York city.
Miss Green, who is a granddaughter
Of the late Mr.. and Mrs. Abram s.
Hewitt and great-granddaughter Of
Peter Cooper. founder of Cooper
Union, spent several months in Copen-
hagen last year as the guest OF the
American Minister and his wife.
Prince viggo. the fourth son OF
Prince Valdemsr. uncle OF King Chris
tian and Count of Rosenberg, cele-
brated his thirtieth birthday on
Christmas Day. It is learned that
prior to the public announcement OF
bis engagement viggo relinquished all
possible claims of succession to the
throne and will no longer be addressed
as his Royal Highness; from now
on he will be officially known as
Prince Viggo, Count of Rosenberg.
His bride will be styled Princess
Viggo, Countess Of Rosenberg, and
any issue from the union will be
known as counts or countesses of
Rosenberg without the prefix of prince
and princess. This procedure is
identical with that followed when
Prince viggo's eldest brother, Aage,
in 1914 married an Italian commoner,
the beautiful Countess Mathilde Calyi
di Bergolo
1t was during Miss Green's visit to
Copenhagen last summer that she first
met Prince viggo. who. like other
members of his family, is a frequent
guest at the American Legation.
Throughout the American girls stay
the couple met often at the legation
and at sporting events.
Announcement of the engagement Of
Prince Viggo closely follows that OF
his elder brother, Prince Erik, who is
to wed Miss Lois Frances Booth, of
Ottawa, Canada.

JAPANESE NOTE
ON LAND ED|CT
HanIhara Said to Have Deliver
ed Formal Protest
SITUATION STlRS TOXIC
American Government Likely To Re
ply Al onoe-Aetion
Follows Land
Decision.
SITUATION sTIRs TOXIC

Neutrality-suspicious. has made
formal representations to the
United States, amounting to a
protest against the anti-alien land
laws of California and Other
Western States, it was learned on
reliable authority here.
The protest Is understood to have
been made in q communication de
livered to the State Department by
Ambassador Hanihara, the Japanese
envoy In Washington.
This step by Japan follows closely
upon the recent decisions OF the United
States Supreme Court confirming the
constitutionalIty Of the Western laws
barring Japanese from holding land In
any way in those States for agricuI
tural purposes.
The Japanese communication is not
understood to protest against the opin,
ions Of the Supreme Court as such
but to object to the situation that re
suits from the courts decisions.
The protest from Japan, according
to the view in some quarters here, Is
the natural consequence and climax
to the long history of the Western
anti-aIien land legislation, and the dip
lomatic correspondence that previous
ly has passed between the United
States and Japan on this subject has
foreshadowed such step as the pres.
ent note from Toxic.
The American Government has not
replied to the Japanese note, but is ex
pected to do so in the near future.
Since Secretary Of State Hughes
came into office II has been the tacit
understanding between the United
States and Japanese Governments, 1t
is said, that nothing practicable could
be done toward negotiation for a set
tlement OF this serious question until
the Supreme Court has passed on the
constitutionality OF the anti-slien Land
laws, as brought up in different suits
before the court.
