At that time Attorney Mc Nary for the remonstrants will arrue his case, the city’s presentation being completed. About a dozen witnesses were put on by the citv. including a number of residents of the district, while the remonstrants had nine or ten witnesses. The city had exhibits showing the muddv condition of the streets at certain seasons of the year und testimony was offered bv the fire department regarding their difficul ties in getting to fires over the streets in the winter time. The citv health officer ascribed the large number of contagious diseases to the luck of a sewer in the district and presented figures tending to prove that this sec tion had more contagious diseases in proportion to other sections. L. A. McNary, attorney for Chilson and other property owners of the dis trict who oppose construction of the sewer, argued that part of the sewer will bi- outside of the citv limits and that the city, therefore, has no right to construct 1L While the Herald representative was not present at the trial, we are informed that Attorney McNary made a very able presentation of his case, making the most of every point possi ble for him. It is also said that the trial was absolutely free from per sonalities nnd that both ski« were acting in perfect good faith. NEBRASKA PEOPLE IN SEARCH OF J. W. HODGSON The Herald was this week in re ceipt of a request from the police de partment of the city to look up a man by the name of Jack Hodgson, ad dress unknown but supposed to be in Lrats. A communication from Neb raska had been received and placed in the hands of Inspector Craddock and the latter called upon us. With the assistance of John D., Mr. Hummel of 9314 54st avenue and others, it was finally learned that the man wanted had left here last soring and his present whereabouts were un known. His wife and her sister were located in other parts of the citv and placed in communication with the pul. Ice, it being thought that the women were the on« reallv sought because of the illness or death of a relative in the east. J. W. Hodgson was former ly a resident of this district on 51st avenue, being employed bv the South ern Pacific railroad. EIGHTY WHITNEY CHORUS BOYS RETURN TO HOMES Eighty members of the Whitnev boys' chorus, which left here some tm< ago for a trip through California returned Thursday of last week to their homes In this city. The 50 re maining members of the chorus will continue with their trip south, re turning here about September 1. The members who returned started on their home trip from Sacramento un der the direction of James H. Price, who accompanied the chorus south. The chorus was received enthusias tically everywhere it appeared. The Y. M. C. A. and similar organizations too good care of the boys and ths trip was successful in everv wav. It was found impractical for the entire or ganization to continue the California state tour. A meeting of the boar! of directors of the chorus was held last Friday evening at which plans for future activities were discussed. Mr. Harding’s world parley plan is reported to be pleasing to foreign governments. The world will breathe more freely when it has something more tangible than a report to base its faith upon.
