During the absence f the family Thura-!

thief, who gained entrance by using n

J. W. Keeley, 2101 Avenue A, reported
to tho polico yesterday that his pocket
had been picked whtlo riding on a street
car from the Northwestern passenger
station to Seventeenth street. Ills pocket
book contained about J9. Keeley gave
the polico good descriptions of threo
young men who Josttcd him JUBt as they
left 'the car at the Northwestern Btation.
The descriptions fit -fairly well tho trio
chased and two of them captured yes
terday after Officer Kelloy had. shot tho
hat from tho head of ono of them.
Because some irregular lines and an
'inartistic droop near the center offended
the eyes of the managers of tho Eagles'
beautiful club building, all of tho upper
front cornice haa been removed and re
placed with new. The work has cost
several hundred dollars and has occupied
the entire week. Not ono person In lO.OOO
would have or did notice the dofects. but
the determination of tno Kagics to nave
nothing about the fine building that can
offend any person caused the chance.
The oontructor has long since been paid
nnd his bond exonerated and thuc escapes
any share of tho cpst of repairs. A few
nttlstlo builders and expert mechanics
first noted tho defects and pointed "them
out to some of the Sagle officers. Thence
frnrnnl these minor defects' became glar
ing offenses to the esthetic senses of tho
officers and members and the expensive
ctanges became necessary to preserve
tho fine Joys the beautiful building In
spires. Tho marriage of Mrs. I M. Crockwell,
widow of the late pioneer book store

The Council Bluffs Cubs defeated the
five from Macedonia at the local "X"
last nlglit by Iho scdre of M to 2T.
The Macedonians wre outclassed from
tho start by tho superior teamwork of

basket throwing of Morrison and Deffen

organizations concerning the desirability
of a freo bridge. The approval of any
practical plans to mako possible the con
struction of such a bridge left no doubt
that a representative niimber of tho busi
ness men of tho city wanted tho bridge
Mayor Moloney, Dr. Donald Macrae,
Aldermen Boyer and Stbne, Robert
Huntington, B. If. Liougee. II. G. Mc
Geo and others spoke, advocating any
measures that will provide tho bridge.
Almost every speaker took occasion to
declaro that the sentiment favorable to
another bridgo had In It no tinge of com
plaint or criticism against tho street
railway company, but pointed out that
tho development of both cities Is being
retarded by the restrictions necossarlly
placed upon the traffic by the Imposition
of tolls and the delays of collecting.
Several of tho speakers pointed out the
bad feature of having the patrons of the
Lincoln highway held up for tolls while
passing across the boundary lines be
tween two of the principal cities on the
route.
Many of the speakers took seriously
the threat of building & bridge at Flor
ence and declared that It would be as
much a calamity to Omaha as It would
be to Council Bluffs, so far as tho Lin
coln highway ' concerned. It would di
vert traffto from both towns.
The decision was reached to apply to
the Board of County Supervisors to sub
mit a. proposition to voto a bond Issue
or a small tax covering a period of a
number of years to provide the money
required for the portion Council Bluffs
nnd Pottawattamie cdunty should pay

Deported Woman
Brought Back 111
Upon the theory that her home must
be In Council Bluffs, because she was
married here tyenty-flvo years ago, the
Canadian Immigration authorities de
ported Mrs. Mary Hector because through
Illness sho had become a dependent, and
kindly brought her all the way from
Carmangay, Alberta province Canada.
She arrived here late Thursday evening
In charge of R. Spencer, Canadian Immi
gration agent, who took her to the police
station and formally turned her over to
the city authorities.
Mrs. Hector Is a widow, 0 years eld,
feeble from age and helpless from danger
ous Illness. Although kindly treated, the
long, hard Journey from Canada had
completely exhausted her, and when she
reached the police station she was al
most unconscious and her condition so
alarming that City Physldan Tubbs was
hastily called and had her taken to Mercy
hospital at once In the city ambulance.
No ivery definite Information could be
obtained disclosing Just why the Cana
dian authorities deported tho unfortunate
woman beyond tho faot that she had be
come a publlo charge through Illness.
She had told the Canucks that she was
married at Council Bluffs twenty-five
years ago to Robert Hector, who died
many yearn ago, by a Methodist clergy'
man whose name she could not remem
ber. She eald she had lived for a num
ber of years on Washington avenue. The
cost of bringing her here In the care of
a salaried attendant waa evidently greater
than would have been the expenso of
providing for her simple wants the few
remaining years of her life. She will be
come a county charge here.

Lovers Caught by
' the Moving Pictures
Tho work of showlnga "Council Bluffs
Courtship" as a moving picture was ,com
pteted' yesterday nfternoon when the last
sections of the film -woro completed by
caicmng tlie ardent young lovers when
they visited the Joe W, Smith store,
where, tho brjdo-to-bo bought a stunning
traveling gpw and tho groom an over
coat to wenr on the wedding Journey.
Frances Keppler-Metzger, as tho ex
pectant bride, attracted a great deal of
attention as sho made her way through
the shopping district in an automobile
with her lover at her side.
Rlchafd Thornton, who has looked the
lover as well as played It, loft last even
ing ror-Chlcago. He will return In a
few days and It will then be known how
many of the scenes will have to be
taken over again on account of bad
lighting and other causes. After this
work is completed the more than 1,203
feet of film will be put together and
tried out on a picture machine In ono
of the local theaters. Lator It will be
shown for a week here and then carried
on a circuit of about fifty western Iowa
towns.
The picture will be of much local In
terest on account of tho large number
of people whose faces will appear In, the
curious crowds that could not bo
avoided at any point. Thousands who
never expected they would get Into the
movies will see their faces neerlnir from
i ' the screen.
Paul Schroeder, former manager of tho
Nicholas theater, and G rover Beno, who
conceived and financed the project, are
well pleased with the appareftt success
that haa crowned their efforts. One of
the pretty scenes in the love story will
be when the man In the case Is caught
by tho Knights of tho Full Moon and
given a degree' or two while his discon
solate bride waits outside.
