Deputy Sheriff Hoye, long, lean and lithe, "built for speed," and Roy Jav ersTnimble limbed negro trusty at the county jail, ran a foot race down Far nam street yesterday afternoon. The deputy sheriff won. "Dat white roan iho can step some," gasped the perspiring son of Ethiopia as he was bring taken back to his cell. "Ah's done lost ma trusty's job, but I sho did try ha'ad to get away." "If he'd had one feather in his hand he'd been flying," panted Hoye. The race started when Javers, one i of twenty trusties detailed to help carry cases of contraband booze , seized aj the Anton Larson dairy farm from the jail corridor to i store room in the baeinent,, made a break for liberty. ' " , , ," He drooped one end of a case' of beer and darted into the Seventeenth street driveway, where Jailer Clayton was standing guard. Clayton weighs about 300 pounds ami wabbles like a well-fed duck. His intentions were goo He made a grab at Javers, but the negro sped i past him like he was standjng stilL , Yells to Hoye.- The jailer yelled to Deputy Hoye, ' who' was across the street All Clay ton could do was to puff and point frantically ut the fleeing trusty. Then the race was on. . If they had been automobiles in stead of humans, Hoye and the negro would have turned 'Mo Farnam street on two wheels Winding in and out. of a maze of traffic, the pair crossed Sixteenth street, then Fifteenth street Crowds on the sidewalks stopped and watched the race. A traffic coo endeavored to intercept Javers, but he, like Clayton was too fat . ' At Fourteenth street Javers, wind ed, slowed down and Hoye pounced upon him.' " , The first thing he said was, "Boss, that was jme race." ; , Iowa Uni Will Train Girls for Home Service Iowa City, la., Majr 27,-The Uni versity of Iowa will give a special 'eight weeks' course,' beginning June 18 and ending August 17 to train wo men and girls for capable home serv ice, relief work among persons left dependent by the departure of sot diers, and otherVinds of community For this course all the special facili ties of the college of medicine, the nurses' training school, the depart ment of home economics, and the bu reau of social welfara will be con centrated.

"Citizens or not citizens, all men between the ages of 21 and .31 must register," Mr. Moorhead said. "I have heard that there are lots of aliens on the South Side who do not think they have to register just be cause they have not taken out citizen ship papers. The law, however, ex empts no one from registration." Absentees and sick persons eligible to the draft are registering in large numbers. Registration cards of eligi hies out of the city and those con fined to their homes on account of ill ness must be in by June 5 registra tion day. Volunteer registrars have been , sworn in, instructed as to their duties and assigned to their respective pre cincts. "All is in readiness to make Omaha one of the most efficient registration places in the United States," said the election commissioner.

Bride 6 3 Mystery to Shop This Week And to Do Buying All of Next Week Who is the Bride o' Mystery. Peonle of Omaha are wonderino- who the Bride o' Mystery is and what she is going to do. Some think it is the name of a, new motion picture, others have different explanations, but none of them are correct. The Bride b Mvsterv is a annular Omaha girl who knows a lot about the things a girl wants before and after she is married. Every day next week she will be going from store to store in Omaha looking at mer chandise and deciding where she will purchase the things for her wedding and for her home after the honey moon. Every store manager should be on the lookout for this pretty miss. She may be in your store any day next weex. sne will sw about a lot of things you have to sell that a girl contemplating marriage wants to know about. The little dainty things that appeal to a bride-to-be the more prosy, but useful, things that every sensible girl knows she must have in Speed of Airplanes is Doubled During the War (CorrMportd.no. of Th. Associated Prass.1 Paris, May 10. The speed of fight ing airplanes has been doubled during the war, while the ascending power of the airplanes has been multiplied ten times.

Letters and parcel carriers in regions lacking railroad communica tions is one suggestion. Hat In All a. ' ' .Silt .) ' i OMAHA FINISH THE HIGH SCHOOL ..

Native of Loyalty Islands Wounded Somewhere in France (Corr.spoad.no. of Th. Aaaoclatad, Press.) Sydney, Australia, April 30. Ii a recent Australian casualty list cabled from France was the name of "King" Watriama of the Australian infantry force at the front in Franca." Be is a native of the Loyalty islands, a small mid-Pacific group belonging to France, and he has long laid claim to the sovereitrritv of that archinelao-n. This claim in France has never recog nized. Last October, while in Lon don, Watriama called at the British colonial office to press his claim and incidentally to urge that the Loyalty isianus oe iransierrea irom rrencn to British rule. Prior to the war Watriama was a familiar figure in Sydney. He used frequently to call on the governor general, the state governor and fed eral and state officers here relative to the "kingship" denied him. The striking dark-skinned South Sea islander was invariably atired on these occasions in European garb of the latest fashion, including frock coat, silk hat and immaculate gloves. Having an antipathy for automobiles, he made his calls in a carriage drawn by a team of handsome bay horses. He is a man of education and culture and is said to be able to speak several languages. When the war began Watriama en listed in the Australian- force which subsequently seized German New Guinea. As he had served in the British forces in the Boer war, he was at once a valuable man. He taught many of the new recruits, of which the force was largely composed, the use of the rifle. After the New Gui nea expedition he re-enlisted in the Australian ranks and in due course reached France. ' Before leaving New Guinea he told a friend that he bad long been desir ous that Britain should control the Loyalty islands, but, inasmuch as the British and French were,, unitedly fighting against Germany, he would make no further move in the matter. Chesire Farms Slowly , , Are Sinking Into Ground (Corr.tpond.enc of Th. Associated Ptms.) Chester, England, May 10. Farm ers in a large area of Chesire have their work complicated by the fact that the surface of their farms is steadily sinking at a rate reaching in many places several inches yearly. This subsidence occurs in the dis trict of the great salt mines. The salt deposits are about 400 feet below the surface and there is everywhere at this depth a tolal thickness of at least 200 feet of salt. The gradual removal of the salt is the cause of the sub sidence of the land. , The salt is mined by means of pumps. Water is allowed to flow into the salt beds, where it becomes sat urated "with salt. In this condition it is pumped .to the surface and fresh water flows in to take its place. Jhe subsidence of the surface is most marked, in the immediate vicinity of each pumping center. LIVES 200 YEARS!

Fifty-nine civil war veterans and their wives and daughters attended the memorial services at the Walnut Hill Methodist church Sunday morn ing, addressed by Rev. Oliver Keve. Twenty-four members of the local Grand Army posts have died since last Memorial day. The sermon, on the text, "A Scep ter of Righteousness1 Is the Scepter of Thy Kingdom," was a plea that we as a nation keep righteousness and truth, that we may avoid disaster such as has come to nations that had other ideals. The minister referred effectively to the statement, of Lloyd George when the English people were complaining about his management of a campaign in the Boer war. They were warn ing him that if he didn't look out they would lose South Africa. He cited the fact that because of loose, living in England the physical standards of the army had to be lowered to obtain recruits, and told them that "If you do not change, you will be in danger of losing London." Must Stay on God's Side. "Thus it is with the United States. We must not assume too confidently that God is on our side, but, with Abraham Lincoln, we must be sure that we remain on God's side. "Only as people and institutions continue in ways of righteousness can they hope to remain in existence. The nations of antiquity and in quest of wealth, beauty and power perished because righteousness did not. pre vail in them, and America is not ex mpt from the1 law that everything that tends toward evil brings destruc tion."

Maharajah of Bikaner Talks of 'English Government (Correspondence of Th,e Associated Press. London, April. 30. Suggestion that the constitutional system of the British empire is- really that of a crowned republic and that an organi zation to give expression to republi can sentiments is required in Eng land has been scornfully reoudiated ! by the maharajah of Bikaner. The manarajan declared that he spoke in behalf of the Indian empire, the na tive princes, the Indian army and the masses of the people. Referring to a letter published in a London paper in which the republican suggestions were made, the maharajah said: "I think he would be a bold man who would say that a form of gov ernment which might be found satis factory in some other country in al together different circumstances would be the open panacea for the British empire. Can we look with anything but serious alarm upon any suggestion for weakening the very foundations of the system which has welded together in ever-increasing strength the various parts of the em pire in sunshine and in storm. "As one coming from a country where our sacred teaching, our senti ments and our traditions deeply in spire us with veneration, affection and devotion for the sovereign. I shauld like to take this opportunity of de claring in the most unhesitating terms th .t the views and suggestions of the writer will be repudiated with scorn and looked upon with extreme repug nance throughout the Indian empire.

For the Afternoon Guest "Safe-Tea First" GERMANY WILL WAR OM HOSPITAL SHIPS - i Berlin Announces Carriers of Sick and Wonnded to Be Se spected Only Under Cer tain Conditions. London, May 27. The intention of the German government to sink all entente hospital ships in the entire "barred zone," with the exception of certain ships from TSaloniki to Gib raltar, is semi-officially announced in Berlin, according to a Reuter dispatch from Amsterdam. The German announcement was made in reference to British denials of the German allegations that the British misused hospital ships. - It cited several instances which, it was asserted, proved the correctness of the German accusations. The semi official announcement read in part: "The German government will in the future prevent all traffic by hos oital ships in the entire barred zone and in the Mediterranean including the road left open for Greece, and will regard hospital ships appearing there ail war vessels and attack them imme diately." Germany, the announcement says, will allow the transport of the ill and wounded from Saloniki on Greek rail ways of Kalamata harbor and thence on hospital ships to Gibraltar ovthe following conditions: "First, these hospital ships on the road left open to Greek shipping must proceed at a rate of speed previously reported to the German government. "Second, that the name of the ves sel and the time of arrival or depart ure be communicated to the German government six weeks lh advance. "Third, that a representative of the neutral government representing Ger many's interests in the particular country in question shall certify be fore the departure of the hospital ship that it carries only the ill, wounded and nurses and no goods other than materials for treating them." China Objects to Actio.n , . Of Its Minister to Janan (Correspondence ot The Associated Press.) Peking, April 30.

Two previous attempts had been made to send an agent to Japan to confer the order on the emperor, but in both cases the envoys selected were rejected either by Parliament or by those who objected to monarchical forms of government.
