King and Queen of Quivera Lead Brilliant Ball Miss Eleanor Burkley and J. E. Davidson Are New Rulers of Ak-Sar-Ben. (Continued From Hut Fused Burkley, Omaha pioneers. Her ma ternal grandparents, the Owen Wick hams of Council Bluffs, among the 'earliest settlers In that community, are both living. Her mother passed away four years ago. Since that time .she has taken the place as head of her father's household with dignity and capability, and has supplied the understanding and love of his lost mother to her youngest brother, Francis. Miss Burkley has two older brothers, Hurry and Robert. She is 21 years old. Miss Burkley was educated at the Sacred Heart convent and was gradu ated in three years from Duchesne college. She did not take her degree, however, until June of this year with her class. Following the completion of her course a year ago Miss Burk ley set sail for a summer in Europe with her father and brothers. Robert and Francis, and her aunt, MIhb Agnes Wickhfun of Council Bluffs. This summer she spent in the east, visiting Mrs. Arthur Crittenden Smith at her summer place, Cohussett, Mass.; in Washington, D. C.. with the George Hamlltons, sr., and in At lantic City with Mr. and Mrs. Will Hamilton. Returning home, she met her modiste in New York, and her self selected the material for her coronation robes. Later she was the guest of Miss Mary Talmadge of Mil waukee, who will be remembered as a Duchesne student. She returned to Omaha September 17 and will spend the winter at home engaged in Junior league and Christ Child social service work. She is a young person of diversi fied Interests. She rides very well, and was one of Omaha’s first women to take up the sport wtih any regu larity. She has participated in the last two Junior league shows and was a maid of Ak-Sar-Ben court of 1921 when Miss Claire Daugherty was queen. The burst of applause when she entered last night and the light fell on her was well merited, for sho is very lovely, and has a remarkable carriage. Her "queenliness" has often been remarked. She was truly regal in a sleeveless gown of white crepe spun through with a gleaming maze of sliver threads, from which the light struck back frostily. Rhine stones seemed to feather out. In ori ental crescent designs, centered with little diamond roses. This broidery completely covered the dress, which wag made after the latest design, beltless, wtihout a suggestion of a waistline, and caught at the hips with rhinestone ornaments. It was cut with the new V decolietage in back and front and outlined with rhinestones, held over the shoulders with straps of brilliants which caught the shoulder material in in verted Vs. A scant circular flounce witli the merest ripple swept across the front from the right side of the hem to the waist line on the left hip. The gown was six inches from the door in length. The court jewels seemed partlcu 'arly beautiful this year. The straight coronet of rhinestones set in sliver, •vith its six-inch diadem in front, dashed and sparkled over her deep due eyes. She also wore the neck ace with its pendant, the two arm dets, and carrftd the delicate little scepter. Mies Burkley wore the traditional court train of ellver cloth decorated wth sequins and lined wfith satin which Miss Claire Daugherty wore for the first time two years ago and in which Miss Gertrude Stout ap peared last year. It has great dignity , and grace, cut with a V neck and fastened on the straight shoulders of * he slender little queen with silver cords and tassels. EAMES E. DAVIDSON, the new king of Ak-Sar-Ben, although a resident of Omaha only since 1917, hae made a remarkable record.

Love will make a girl do most any thing, In the opinion of Miss Loulso Voss, 22, of Grand Rapids, Mich,, who attempted suicide hy swallowing poison at Burlington station Thursday afternoon. Louise Is at Central po lice station recovering from the ef fects ef the poison. The reason for the attempted sui cide, according to Louise, Is because Victor Mlllen, fill South Twenty fourth street, whom she came all the way to Omaha to see, scorned her for another girl. After being repulsed by Mlllen, Louise spent two nights in the Burlington station for lack of money to pay for sleeping quarters. Lutse is of the flapper type, with blond hair worn In the Jap boh style, rouged checks and long dresses touch ing the flat heeled patent leather sandals on her feet. Although she has gone without food since Monday, Louise was not weak and was ready to tell her story. Her trend of conversation seemed irn pulslve and governed by the heart She emphatically states she Is abso lutely through with all men; and In tho next breath says she wil stick hy her former love^ through thick and thin. "I don't know why T fell for him." said Louise. "What does any girl fall In love for? She never knows. Vietor was not so handsome hut lie was a good talker and made all sorts of promises which ho didn't keep. Trouble Willi Men. "I met Victor In Grand Rapids, my home, and didn't cure for him ut nil ut first. He kept lifter mo for such a long time that I finally fell for him and then was madly In love with him. "But that Is the trouble with these men.'' raid Louise cynically. "You flnully fall for them and thpy don't want you and go on to the next wom an to conquer. I am through. "He told me about Ids wife In Fre mont, Mich., who had treated him so badly. I hndn't thought of marriage I was so much In love with him, but he later promised to get a divorce. It was last February that I went to De troit with him. Traced Hint to Omaha. "Victor stopped writing to me after lie had mentioned an attractive Min rnrpolls girl In his letters. I found his address at the Northwest* i n IVioncc corporation In Grand Ituplds where he had been a bond salesman, and came to Omaha with money I had saved from my $14 weekly wage. "I came to Omaha with $25 and tho faro is $24 .58, so you see I hail only small change. I don't know what 1 expected to do when I reached hero, I was so upset. 1 tore up all his letters, so I have nothing. I haven't anything to live for anyway. so what's the use," nnd tears welled up Into Louise's eyes again. Millen Arrested. Millen was arrested Friday morning and is being held at Central police station pending Investigation. Me had nothing to say about Lucille ex cept what he had told her when she saw him, that he cared more for the Minneapolis girl nnd could not give her up. Lucille met "the other girl" at Mittens homo and said she was very kind to her. There was no antagonism between the two on ac count of Millen. said Louise, for they both loved him. Motorist Is Killed; ■ Arrested Fred Jackson, Twenty-fifth and Burdette streets, was shot five times and almost instantly killed at Twen ty-seventh and Q streets Thursday night, when he failed to execute the command of two bandits, who jumped on the running hoard of his car. According to W. M.

Lincoln. Oct. 8.—Declaring Got. Charles W. Bryan of Nebraska had become a national figure since his occupancy of the executive office. W. E. Quigley of Minneapolis, Minn., in a statement here today, said a move ment was under way In several states of the central west and northwest to make him a candidate for the demo cratic presidential nomination in 1324. Mr. Quigley Is a former resi dent of Nebraska and was connected with the Nonpartisan league of this state in 1317, 1913 and 1919 and has been active in the farmer labor party of Minnesota. "Governor Bryan,” Mr. Quigley said, "has strong support among the progressives of Minnesota. North Da kota. South Dakota. Iowa, Illinois and Nebraska. "Some of the biggest men in the Minnesota farmer-labor party, who have been democrats in tlie past, feel that Mr. Bryan is the logical man for the democrats to run. They class him as a sane progressive who puts his theories Into actual practice. Witness tlie coal situation, wherein the price has been cut for the Ne braska consumer, also the buying of ?;asoIlne for 9 cents a gallon for he state, when the*prlce but a few months ago was in the neighborhood of 22 cents. "Those are the things that rount with the average voter, and Governor Bryan has become a national figure almost overnight, lie will, I think, become a strong candidate for either first or second place on the ticket."

Women Riot as Lloyd George Arrives in U. S. Banners Attacking Britain Seized in «N. Y.—Ex-Pre mier Says Versailles Pact Not Carried Out Properly. By International New* Service. New York, Oct. 5.—A near riot oc curred today In a crowd of about 3,000 persons grouped about city hall to await the arrival of David Bloyd George when a delegation of about 50 women appeared with printed signs attacking the ex-premler and British policies. Police tore the signs from the wo men’s hands and dispersed them, but not before there was a general melee in which a number of persons were bruised and scratched. The women bore placards identify ing them as members of "American Society for Freedom.’’ The women stoutly resisted efforts of the police to tear up the signs, fighting and scratching, but after hard w-ork the police succeeded In dispersing them. By International New* Harrier. New York. Oct. 5.—A distinguished tourist. Honorable David Lloyd George, M. P., landed upon the Amer ican shore at noon today and received a welcome such as ha-s been given by Americans to no commoner. From the Battery to City Hail thou sands lined the streets as bands, mo torcycle policemen, mounted patrols and fleets of automobiles that formed the Lloyd George procession moved up historic Broadway. So warm was the welcome, so genial the response, that the little Welshman evoked, that the police could not restrain the crowds from rushing to the side of his automobile and shouting their individual wel comes. _____ | By Associated PrfM. New York, Oct. 5.—David Lloyd George, war premier of Great Britain, today set foot on American soil for the first time. Coming here ss a private citizen to tour the United States and Canada, the doughty little Welshman and his family were taken from the liner Mauretania at Quarantine and landed at the Battery on the police boat Macom. At Quarantine the latest member of the "big four" to come to the United States made It known that he intended while here to call on former President Wilson, with whose aid the treaty of Versailles, ending the war. was drawn. He defended the treaty, asserting that it was the manner in which it was operated that had caused unhappiness, and endorsed the pro posal that atatesmen and economists study the troubles of Central Europe. "Has the Versailles treaty brought happiness and settlement to the world?" he was asked. "No; but I do not think the mis chief is with the Versailles treaty. The trouble has been with how the treaty has been carried out," replied Mr. Lloyd George. The most important factor which might lead toward the settlement of the difficulties of central Europe, which Mr. Lloyd George said still were grave, was acceptance of the proposal of Secretary Hughes in his New Haven address, that the situa tion be analyzed and adjusted by an International committee of competent statesmen and economists. Asked whether there was any immi nent danger in the central European situation, the. veteran British states man declared: "There is always danger in central Europe. The situation is pretty bad. Isn't it? "The one thing which might have helped would have been acceptance of your Mr. Secretary Hughes' proposal. It is not too late, but It is pretty late." The league of nations. Mr. Lloyd George declared, had certainly been weakened by the Greco-Italian situa tion and its settlement. He refused to declare his altitude toward Italian Premier Mussolini's conduct in the imbroglio. "The league of nations," he assert ed. answering another question, "can not he considered a growing concern without the participation of the United States." Mr. Lloyd George did not think the Ruhr situation nny more hopeful now than it had been since the French occupation. It was difficult to make up one's mind about the exact status of such an important matter. He de clared. however, that he did not think a rapprochement between England and France was in sight on this ques tion at the present mordent. Contrary and contradicting rumors, he asserted, made It difficult for him to express an opinion about the possibility of establishing a Rhineland republic. Mr. Lloyd George will remain In New York but a few hours, proceed ing to Montreal. Ottawa. Toronto, Niagara Falls. Ont.. and Winnipeg, and crossing the American border into Minnesota. American itinerary includes Minneapolis, fit. Paul. Chi cago. Springfield. Ill . Mooseheart. III.; ft Iritis, Ixiulsvllle. Frankfort, Ky. Indianapolis, Cleveland. Pitts burgh, Washington, Richmond. Phil adelphla, Scranton, I’a.; Boston and New York. Peter B. Kyne, American novelist who had been designated to manage the tour, has announced that the Itinerary may be extended to the Pa clflo coast and to western Canada. Ills first public address will be de livered in Montreal Saturday or Sun day. There will be th|-ee or four other prepared addresses and extern pent neons speeches in each of the dtieR visited. The tour w ill be wound up by an address in the Metropolitan Opera House. New York. November 2. the former premier sailing for home the next day. Mr. Llovd George has Insisted upon tin- strictest unofficial nature of his trip. Nowhere will he make an of flelal British statement, lie has made it plain.
