“Die If You Wish, But Don’t Get Blood
on the Bug,” Shooter Is Admonished
Left to right, Amelia Brady Billon, who was shot, perhaps fatally, In
her apartment yesterday, hy her husband, Eugene W. Dillon, and her two
sisters, Charlotte Brady and Dorothy Brady.
“Go ahead and die if you want to, but don’t get blood
on the rug.”
It was this admonition, given hlm(
by a sister of his wife, formerly
Amelia Brady, employed In the Bur
gess-Nash beauty parlor, which sent
Eugene W. Dillon, 33, of Boston, out
to buy the pistol with which he later
sent two bullets into his wife's body,
he told police Tuesday morning.
That and the agonizing moments he
spent later under a bed in her apart
ment, listening to her two sisters,
Dorothy and Charlotte, discuss him.
In the presence of another man and
woman, while the wife made no ef
fort to defend him, he added.
The other woman, who acted as a
witness when he was married to the
Brady Woman in Council Bluffs on Au.
gust 26, and who gave her name as
Hazel Nevin, was the only one who
defended him, he said. It was then
that he emerged from his hiding place
and fired three shots at his wife and
then attempted to shoot himself
through the head. He bumped his
elbow against a dresser, he said, and
the bullet merely passed through his
cheeks.
In his statement yesterday Dil
lon said he came to Omaha April 2,
began working about May 1 for the
Butterlck Seven Reading club, with
offices at 301 Baird building.
Be became acquainted with Ame
lia *;::.dy while she teas liv.ng In the
east tw.i years ago, he said, and they
hail been engaged several times. He
said she left him each time to go
with other men. About January 15,
lie said, she went to Florida.
11c next met her In Omaha shortly
after his arrival, and she pleaded with
him to remain and get married, he
claims. They were married by Rev.
R. C. Harvey, pastor of the Fifth
Avenue Methodist church in Council
Bluffs on August 26. The following
day they returned to Omaha, and
Amelia left him at a corner near
her apartment.
He did not see her until the fol
lowing Sunday. She told him she
had been unable to communicate with
him because she had been injured
in an automobile accident.
She urged him to go away before
her sisters saw him. While they were
talking, Dorothy Brady emerged
ffo'm the house and pulled Amelia
away. That night, ha said he saw
his wife leave the apartment and
drive away with another man. The
next morning she told him she wan
going to get a divorce.
Dillon threatened to commit suicide
and did, in fact, slash his wrist with
a safety razor blade. The sisters
asked him not to get blood on the
rug. and brought him a basin, after
which they went out in the hail.
He bound up his w'rist with a tour
niquet and walked out into the hpli.
The women ran back into the apart
ment, and slammed the door In his
face, he stUd.
He then purchased a pistol in a
store at Sixteenth and Webster
streets, and returned to the house.
He entered and hid under a bed.
Later, about 1:80 p. m., his wife and
her sisters returned, in company with
the other man and woman, and the
shooting followed.
Amelia Dillon was reported to be
in a critical condition at Lord Llstor
J--—■ --
hospital today. Dillon was under the
care of a police surgeon at the city
jail.
Infant Killed
in Auto Crash
Omaha Child Dies in Father s
Anns Following Accident
Near Wahoo.
Following an automobile crash six
miles north of Wahoo, Neb., late
Monday night, Alice Gwendolyn Lillie,
18-montlis-old daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Earl A. Lillie, 2902 Dodge
street, died in Jier father’s arms en
route to an Omaha hospital.
Mrs. Lillie was severely shocked
and cut about the head and hands In
the crash which occurred when the
Lillie car collided with another ma
chine driven by J. A. Green, agent
for the Bankers Life Insurance com
pany, living in Council DHiffs. Lillie
and Green were unhurt, but both
cars were badly damaged.
Saunders county officials took
Green into custody. He admitted, they
say, that he had been drinking. They
say an empty liquor flask was taken
from Green's car after the crash.
Lillie Is employed in the paint de
partment of the Hannan-O’Dell-Van
Bruht company. He declares Green
was driving at a high rate of speed
when the accident occurred, and was
on the wrong side of the road. Mrs.
Lillie lies at Nicholas Scan hospital.
The body of the child is at Duffy
& Johnson’s undertaking parlors,
awaiting inquest.
According to Deputy County Attor
ney Paul Steinwender, no date has
been set for the Inquest, because of
uncertainty as to where it shall be
held. The accident occurred outside
of Douglas county, and Steinwender
doubts whether this county would
have the right to investigate It.

Keep Clear of
Europe, Says Hi
California Senator Says Only
American Money or Men
Welcomed.
San Francisco, Sept. 4.—Character
izing the world court as a "ham
strung” tribunal without jurisdiction.
United Stutes Senator Hiram W.
Johnson delivered an address here last
night under the auspices of the San
Francisco label- council in which he
told an admiring audience of the fu
tility of any effort on the part -of
the United States to end armed con
flicts in Europe through the court or
the J.eague of Nations.
Europe, he said, was not interested
in advice from the United States,
"but wants aid in either money or
men.”
"There's a certain class of Ameri
krans,” he said, "who believe the Lord
intended them as world advisers, and
who are anxious to fulfill their des
tiny.
"I wish them Godspeed; but a
brief sojourn in Europe taught mq
that the people there, with the cen
turies behind them, and the civiliza
tion and culture of the ages, will be
quite content to worry along in their
own appointed way without the ad
vice or counsel of the men’s auxiliary
of the weekly club of the cities of
America.”
He also warned labor to be on its
guard for attacks directed against
progressive legislation in the state
and nation by hostile interests.
‘‘The attacking forces today upon
progressive legislation extend from
the Atlantic to the Pacific," the sen
ator declared. ‘‘They are well organ
ized and, of course, heavily financed.
They have their string of newspapers
stretching across the continent, in
concert praising every attack, and
mendaciously denouncing every de
feder of progress.”

The Pony Express
n feeding westward from
Missouri and eastward from
California relays of riders are
retracing the trail of the Pony
Express.
Through blizzards and sand
storms, over mountains and
deserts, among hostile Indians,
the express riders of 1860-61
carried messages vital to the
nation.
In the sixteen "months before
the rails were laid, they travelled
a total of 650,000 miles with
the loss of but a single pouch ot
mail. They made a superb rec
ord for fidelity in public service.
Other means of communica
tion have supplanted the Pony
Express. The telephone lines of
the Bell System span the con
tinent. Communication from
coast to coast takes but the frac
tion of a second.
The Pony Express lives only
in memory, reawakened today
by the hoofbeats of ponies along
the winding trail.
But the spirit of devotion of
its riders lives in the men and
women who carry on our nation
wide telephone service.
