THE BEE: OMAHA, "WTCTCKTCSDAY, jrNE Z, 1914.
WIFE AND HUBBY IN TIE RACE
Hun Bead Heat on Trip from Deca
tur. 111., to .Omaha.
ARMISTIOE FINALLY DECLARED
knits While llolh Jnnrnrr to llor
rnrf, Whew, They llrnr, Son I
on Trlnl for Speeding
the Anto.
The score stands 0 to 0 between Mr. and
Jlrs. 3. C ScheUer of Decatur, 111., to
secure possession of an automobile they
both claim. Though lawful husband and
wife, each claims that the machine Is riot
the property of the other, and thereby
hangs a tale.
On Saturday the pollco Rot word from
Schetler that his son, Clark, aged , and
a companion, Will Crlrmlnsham, had left
Decatur with Schctler's car, and to ba
on the lookout for It, as It was believed
en route to Omaha.
Sunday the car was spotted, the boys
locked up and ScheUer notified, nesults:
Schetler, without stopping to chango his
collar, hurried to the depot to catch tho
flist train coming this way. When he
rushed up to the ticket office ho was
taken back at finding his wife there
ahead of him, purchasing a ticket for
Omaha also. The couple had been
estranged for some time and naturally
said nothing to each other of their reason
for coming on here, and rode In different
apartments.
no Hi Tnkr Tnxlu.
When Omaha waa reached Husband
Schetler hailed a taxi and said "city Jail,-1
and Wife Schetler hailed the next taxi
and said "city Jail," and both drivers
were urged simultaneously to "to get
there first." Tho race was a dead heat,
and both Jumped out of the cars and
made for the station garago, where tho
car taken from tho youth was stored.
Into the front scat climbed Husband
fichetler and Into the rear climbed Wlfo
Schetler. And then, after bejng firmly
ensconced, they turned to each other
with a simultaneous ."Well, what'a the
Idea?"
"This car Is mine, and I'm going to take
It back home with me," said the husband.
Truer. In Declnrrd,
"This car la mine and those boya can
Use It If they want to." fired back the
wife. And tho seise for possession was
on. The II. prepared to start for home
despite the W.s protests and the W. out
guessed him by getting an Attorney and
putting her case up boforc. neutral par
ties. Meanwhile the boys wero released
and disappeared somewhere about town.
"I'll sit In this car until the boya show
up nnd take It," said tho W.
''And I'll not move It an Inch until you
get out," said the II. And all morning
long, rain and all, both sat stiffly prop
ped up In the two seats of the machine as
It stood In front of the Jail. How long
thla would have kept up Is hard to de
termine had not word come to both their
cars that their son was being tried' out
at Florence on a charge of speeding,
when both consented to call a truce until
they found out how their offspring was
faring.
The Schetlers are wealthy residents of
Decatur. Both admit that married life
has not been one sweet dream and both
averr they have absolutely no use for
each other. They are separated, but riot
divorced.
Later.
Upon arrival at Florence the boys were
found and peace between the father and
tnothor was continued. A reconciliation
was not effected, but after due consid
eration Papa Bhetler decided that a little
outing would do him good and so he do
elded to take an auto trip to the coast
with his son, and tho tatter's friend. Mrs.
Bhetler will return to the family resi
lience at Deactur.
Toll Taker Calls
. Patrol, but Victim
is Catholic Priest
William McCJenahan, toll taker on the
Douglas street bridge has been held up
and robbed pf his nlghta receipts a num
ber of times; has been threatened by
auspicious looking persons and has other
wise felt the annoying drawbacks of the
lonely post. A couple of yeara on the Job
sweetened hla temper not a whit, nor
has his constant rubbing elbows with
suspicious looking persona made him any
the less suspicious.
Early this morning a stout little man
approached htm from the Iowa side and
commenced to talk. McClanahan got his
revolver handy, and pushed tho Omaha
police button. A moment later tho patrol
dashed up, loaded with reserves. "Tho
trouble maker" was an Inoffensive ap
pearing Catholic priest, who out walking,
had Just stopped at tho toll house for a
few minutes chat
McCltnahan thought ho was a holdup
man, even though the priest was garbed
lit regulation raiment. The latter described
himself as Itev. John Vllen, Plattsmouth,
and said ho was stopping at the Bchlltx
hotel in Omaha and was Just "doing some
thinking" while taking the noctunral
promenade. He was not arrested, "I
guess this night work on the lonely old
bridge Is getting your goat, Mac," Patrol
Conductor Jim Murphy laughed, as the
' wagon turned around and started back
to the station. Father Vllen thought It
all a good Joke.
