Mrs. Krug'a sister, Mrs. Mathtlde Oerber,

tised at that wedding.
The Krug residence had been beauti
fully decorated for the occasion and the

MUCH SOUGHT MAN CAUGHT
W. a. Bender, Wanted by Police ot
Many Cities, Captured by
Omaha Officers.
Officer Bloom and Detective Dempsey
captured an alleged notorloua crook
Thursday afternoon about 8 o'clock at
Twelfth and Douglas streets who la said
to have left a trail of crime from coast
to coast and who has been sought for by
the police of the entire country for sev
eral months. s
August 18 the local police received a eir
cular letter from Stephen Y. Barlow, com
mercial freight agent for the Delaware &
Hudson railway, requesting them to look
out for a man by the name of W. O.
Bender, who is wanted at Pittsburg, Buf
falo, Cleveland and several other cities,
on the charge of forgery. A full de
scription of the criminal was given and
the Omaha police have the honor of cap
turing the much wanted Bender. When
arrested he admitted his name was Bender
and that his home waa at Cleveland.
Bender'a game was worked successfully
for a considerable period. When searched
at the city jail he had several letters of
Introduction from prominent persons in
railroad circles In the east. Hla acheme
waa to present these letters and either
request a loan or oblige him by cashing
a check, usually for a small amount, and
it appears the number of his victims is
legion, lie is a young man of good ap
pearance and appeara to be well edu
cated. Bender had a check book belonging to
the Fidelity Truat company of Buffalo
on hla peraon wheu searched. Two of the
checks In this book were filled out, both
of which were made payable to Bonder

signed by C. A. Bruan and the other by
H. T. Jaeger.
Chief Donahue has notified the police
department at Pittsburg of the Important
capture. Bender is being held on the
charge of being a fugitive from Justice.

Woman in club and charity
i
At the annual meeting of the Women's
Christian Temperance union, held Wednes-
day afternoon, the following women were i
elected as officers for the coming year:
President, Mrs. Adelald Rood; vice presi
dent, Mrs. E. M. Co veil; recording secre
tary, Mrs. Fred Patterson; corresponding
secretary, Mrs. Hugh Fellers; treasurer.
Mrs. N. J. Kl trick; chairman of the high
school lunch committee, Mra. Jamea Tag
gart. Mrs. Jamea Taggart and Mra. II. P.
Roe were elected delegates to represent the
local union at the state convention to be
held at Aurora, September 26, 27 and 2S.
The president, Mrs. Rood, Is also a dele
gate and Mrs. Fred Patterson, who Is
sta.to recording secretary, will also attend
with several other members of the local
organization.
i
In reviewing the year's work, Mrs. Ade
lald Rood, the president, said that if the
union had made a mistake it was in at
tempting too much. She advised for this
year that the women concentrate their ef
forts and then finish whatever they un
dertake. Among last year's efforts where
a little more persistence might have ac
complished more, Mrs. Rood named the
effort of the union to secure the use of
text books on scientific temperance In the
public schools, and the agitation for plac
ing all women confined in the city jail
under the supervision of a woman. She
urged that the union continue its agita
tion for a night matron at the city jail and
that If necessary It enlist the assistance of
other organisations in this effort.
At the midsummer board meeting of the
Daughters of the American Revolution,
748 applicants for membership in the so
ciety were admitted, bringing the total
number of members up to 68,801. As usual,
politics are very much In evidence in the
national society and prospects are that
Mrs. Donald McLean, the president gen
eral, will not be re-elected without some
very active assistance from her friends.
Twice In the past Mrs. McLean has been
defeated aa a candidate for the first office
ot the national society and it is said that
her opponents have never been better or
ganised nor more determined than they
are this year. One faction of the society
is advocating the re-election of Mrs.
Charles W. Fairbanks, who served so sat
isfactorily previous to Mrs. McLean's ad
ministration, but, considering the political
Interests ot Mrs. Fairbanks' husband, there
is little possibility of her seriously consid
ering this flattering suggestion of her
friends. But there are plenty of other
aspliants for the first office and numbered
among them are wives of several United
States senators and other men of high
political position. One faction of the so
ciety has long been In favor of electing to
thla position only women who can com
mand strong political influence and so
women of lesser social position, regardless
of their qualifications, have hod little
chance. The western states have furnished
some of the strongest opposition to this
plan.
Commenting upon some of the personal
phases of the St. Paul biennial, Margaret
Hill McCarter. herself one of the brlghteet
speakers on that program and editor of
the Club Monthly at Topeka, says:
We all have our black beasts. One of
the writer's Is the badge. It has its uses,
but decoration Is not one ot the.n. The
badges swear at every color of the rainbow,
and no badge, except a simple pin, ever
conforms to the situation and looks as If It
belonged In Its place. It is a temporary
thing, like laundry on the line. Thla la aa
Isolated opinion, for most of the delegates
wore one or more continuously, and some
ot the speakers flaunted the broad lavender
band with the gold advertisement,
"Speaker," from breakfast till prayer-time.
The writer has a load of sins to answer for,
but she doesn't have to account for a
lavender satin placard on a raspberry-colored
gown, and her fervent state loyalty
la established by the fact that the dainty
little white-end-gnld emblem and the sun
flower pin of the recent Kansas stTte meet
ing were the only symptoms of her beinf
anything - above a civilian in citizens'
clothes.
Incidentally, men do not know a great
deal more than women. Almost every man
speaker and there were many-ran far
overtime. They were no better orators as
a class than the women speakers, and al
most to a man they lugged In the old,
trite, uninteresting, overworked platitude,
or what you want to call it, about woman
In the home being a world-power. If men
could only once In a way assume that
women In convention have heard that thing
since the beginning of speech, could be Just
a little less patronlring. It would add
mightily to their Influence.
The Valley Woman's club held Its annual
meeting and election of officera Monday,
the following women being elected for the
coming year: President. Mrs. Gertrude Er
way; vice president, Mra. Reed; secretary,
Mrs. Anna Ingram; treasurer, Mrs. Nettle
Eddy; librarian, Mrs. Susanna Lyons, and
press correspondent, Mrs. Jennie Byars.
Miss Bertha Davis, house secretary of the
Toung Women's Christian association, has
returned from an outing at Colorado
Springs and Denver.
The membership committee of the associ
ation waa entertained at the home of Mrs.
J. W. Akin, at Dundee, Monday evening,
about thirty women being present
OWNER TEARS DOWN HOUSE
Takes Thla Means of Compelling
I'ndeslred Tenant to Vacate
the Building.
When William H. Bates refused to move
out of a house owned by John Sautter
the latter began systematically to tear
the building down, according to a peti
tion claiming $200 damages filed by Bates
In district court Thursday. Bate occu
pied what is known as the Clifton hous?,
at 1 South Twenty-seventh btreet. South
Omaha, keeping from twelve to fifteen
boarders. As a gentle hint for him to
move Sautter tore down the front stop
and nailed up the front door June 11.
The hint was not taken, and July 7 the
outbuildings were torn down and the well,
the sole source of their water supply,
was .filled up. Two days later, he says,
Sautter tore down the back porch, took
the doors' of the sleeping rooms from
the hinges and removed the windows.
The following day the side of the kl tenet
was torn down, and the next day the roof
was taken off.
Without kldes or roof to the house Mr.
Bates says It was Impossible for him to
remain, so he had to move out. He says
part of his furniture was stolen and the
rest damaged, besides he was put to the
expense of having his property guarded.
FAIR ONE A GOOD DETECTIVE
Woman Cashier at Dresner's Points
Oat Shortchange Artist to
the Police.
Miss Louise Dresher. cashier for Dresner,
the tailor, 1515 Farnam street, was the
sleuth who brought to grief a short rhang
artist whose visits In a number o' down
town stores loft a shortage In the cash
registers at each establishment Thursday
afternoon. The fellow was placed undr
arrest by Patrolman Morrison and was
Identified by several victims aa the cul
prit. He gave his name aa A, 8. Goldstein
of Welkins', la.
At least half n dozen stores fell easy
prey to Goldstein's work. It is said. The
amount loet in each lnatance was usually
S3. While some merchants blushed so pain
fully at finding themselves so easy that
they denied having had any transactions
with Goldstein rather than own 'up. there
were a few who spoke up and wilt offer
vidence In court. Among them are the
Fry Shoe company. Sixteenth and Dougla
streets; Megeath Stationery company, Fif
teenth and Farnam atreets; Stevens A
Smith, Neville block, and the Dresher
Tailoring company.
The. visit to Dresner's was the one visit
too many made by Goldstein. Had he not
gono there he might stilt be a free man
and still looking for the place which
would prove his undoing. That he had
played a game on the cashier was noticed
Immediately after he left the store, and
two clerks were sent out In the downtown
district to watch other stores and the
streets for some sign of the man. Miss
Dresher also went out and In her wan
derings entered Brandeis A Sons' store.
On the second floor she spied a man whom
she had no trouble In recognising aa her
recent customer. Patrolman Morrison
was called and laid his heavy hand on
Goldstein's shoulder, much to the letter's
apparent astonishment and Indignation,
and took him to Jail.
Goldstein Is about 25 years of age' and
said that he waa a practicing physician in
in uujgi wwn. in ponce court r rway
morning he pleaded guilty to the chnrgea
brought against him and waa sentenced
to thirty dayee In the county Jail. ' V
DEMOCRATS DINE AND ( TALK
One of Scries of Functions to Be Held
Regnlarly Vntll After
Election.
The democrats of Omaha and South
Omaha, with guests from outside thla
vicinity, attended the second dinner of the
series planned for the workers and mem
bers of the party at O'Brien's cafe Thurs
day night. The arrangements for llm
spread were made In a hurry and there
waa no time for a personal canvass to
spread the Invitations, but nevertheless the
attendance was good, about seventy-flvu
persons being present.
Carl R. Goucher of Wahoo, candidate
for secretary of state; Lysle Abbott, can
didate for attorney general; J. C. Dalilman
and G. M. Hitchcock were mentioned aa
the speakers for the evening In the pub
lished announcements, and these made the
principal addreeaes, hlie a number of
othera were called upon. County Judge
Placek of Wahoo and Messrs. Elliott of
Denver, Lambert of South Omaha, Shoe
maker, Cunningham, Nipple, Ryan, Mo
Combs, Elson, Mengednht, Butler, Power
and Daniels made remarks.
Frank lh Weaver, president of the Jock
Honlan club, acted aa toastmaster. It was
the first dinner following the return of
the Nebraska contingent from New Tork
to welcome Bryan, and aa many of those
present were in that party. It was only
natural that some of the speakers should
refer frequently to the trip.
The next dinner of the series will be held
in two weeks, and continue at fortnightly
Intervals until election.
