former division fore man at this terminal, waa married at Passadena, Aug. 23rd, to Mrs. Mary L. HuIL In speakine of the wedding, the Omaha Bee Bald. Here is the end of a romance that has caused more gossip in the upper circles of Omaha society than anything that has happened in a long time.

Both parties to it have been wedded before. and each has a decree of divorce severing the bonds of the former wedding. Elizabeth N. McKeen was cranted a divorce from Wm. R.

McKeen on Jan uary 22, 1909. Mnry L. Hull was given a divorce Irom Charles W. Hull on Feb. rnary 1, 1910.

In each case the wife brought the suit and husband made no fight to prevent the decree. Gossip at one time connected the names of Mre. McKeen and Mr. Hull, and on one occasion at the Countrv Club an open break occurred between Mrs. McKeen and Mrs.

Hull, which occasioned much comment at the time. Mrs. McKcen, who was Misa New, of Indianapolis, returned to her former home after the divorce, and Mrs. Hull went to Pasadena for an extended visit Death of A. J.

dixon, tho Jeweler. The TraveligSalesan. i An announcement that will be of in-terest to the ladles of our city in con-nection with the coming engagement of James Forbes' comedy "The Traveling balesman" that will be presented nt the Keith Saturday evening, Sept 9tb. Tho second act scene represents the sample room in a hotel, and as Bob Blake is supposed to be a cloak and suit drummer, the managers of tho company, in view of the fact thit the are always interested in the latest styles of gowns, have taken advantage of the opportunity to display the latest creations of the dressmaker's 'aft for the delectation of our feminine contingent of theatre-goers. One gown displayed never fails to invoke exclamations of delight from the ladies who see in.

The vocabulary of a iay-man'to describe this exquisite creation is inadequate, but it is a safe assertion to make that not one woman in a thousand would fall to see all the beauty in lines and texture. This gown is a dressmaker's sample, seized by the United States customs inspectors as it was being smuggled Into this country, and it was purchased at the appraiser's Solo of smuggled goods held recently in New York.
