Natalie Talmadge Fails to Appear,
but Buster Insists She's With Him
Prouder of hla neweat title, "Dnd-
die," than of hla movie laurels, Buster
Keaton, diminutive film idol, spent ft
half hour at the Union station Tues
day evening, en route east to set the
world aeries.
His wife, Natalie Talmadge, and
their S months' old' son, Joseph,
were not seen during hla brief sojourn
In Omaha.
"My wife's on the train but she's
putting the baby to sleep," Keaton ex
rlained. Train porters said they had seen no
baby. .
Passengers reported a woman with
pink satin Russian boots in the Keaton
party.
Mrs. Ed Klein, wife of Keaton's di
rector, was the only woman seen In
the Keaton stateroom. "I don't know
where Natalie Is," said Mrs. Klein.
Calls Baby 'The Pest"
Anyway Keaton Is proud of his heir,
though he nicknamed him "The pest."
Told that an Iowa baby uttered the
word "mother" five minutes after its
birth, BuBter exclaimed:
"That's nothing. My buhy did a
somersault an hour after he was born.
He looks like me and he's going to
take after me In the movies."
Grabbing a 10-gallon milk can off a
nearby truck, Keaton started Into the
Pullman car with it.
"Baby'a milk," quoth he. Klein res
cued the can.
Calls Hart "Crazy."
Hollywood movie folks sympathy Is
entirely with Mrs. Hart in the Bill
Hart separation suit, according to Kea
ton, "Hart's crazy," was his laconic com
ment. Keaton said he appeared In Omaha
In vaudeville with his father In 1901.
He was then 6 years old.
A large crowd of movie fans were on
hand to greet him, also local moving
picture film men, Including W. E. Cof
fin, Sidney Meyer and Edward Alper
son and their wives.
Ftgey Joyce of milllonalre and-mar-rlage
fame, was on the same train, ac
cording to train attaches, but she re
tired, leaving word not to be disturbed,
they said.

Democratlo deflation and th tariff
occupied th senator' attention after
devoting th first part of hi address
to the liquor problem. At Superior,
th renator changed th date of th
beginning of deflation from Just prior
to, or at tha time of th holding of
the republican national convention, to
a time In the fall or winter of 1020
1921. He said that there had been
great Inflation during the war under
a democratic national administration,
and that he fully understood that un
due expansion could not go on In
definitely. "The trouble with th deflation poli
cy adopted by th federal reserve
board was, that Instead of moderate
curtailment of credit and currency,
the board with on blow brought on
drastic deflation, and It waa this that
hitfught on depression," said th
senator.
I'ralse Underwood Tariff.
Speaking of th tariff, he said that
although the new tariff bill would
bring return to the government of but
$400,000,lH)0, th people would pay
enormous Increased price for their
goods, such as woolens, cotton goods,
hardware, and In fact every article to
be purchased. He praised the Under
wood tariff law, enacted under the
Wilson regime.

the automobile as It stopped before
the reviewing stand to open the car
door for Commander-in-Chief Pilchel

pointed to a huge spray of multi

ning board that had been flung there
by admiring spectators and asked
Colonel MacNIder to lift them so that
they would not be crushed. Com
mander "Jack," as MacNIder is

them in the car and General Pilcher
joined him, allowing the parade to
