POLICE JUDGE SAYS
'COPS' MADE MISTAKE
Magistrate Madden Rules They
Had No Right to Enter South

Search Warrants.
POLE FAMILIES OF
OMAHA PROSPEROUS
Priest Takes Census of Parish
and Finds But Eight House -
holds Who Do Not Own
Homes.
Rev, Father Gluba, militant priest
of the St. Francis church, South Side,
is taking a census of the 600 Polish
families in his parish.
Of the first 200 homes visited, he
found that all but eight owned their
own homes.
"I believe there are few places in
Omaha where one could take a census
and ll.id that only 4 pef cent of the
families are renters," said Father
Gluba.
Every home he visited subscribes
for a newspaper and most of them
have more than one.
Most of the homes are well kept.
The Polish women do beautiful
needlework and even the most humble
homes have elaborate hand crocheted
curtains and bed spreads.
. "The Polish people are the most
sociable people in the world," said
Father Gluba. "Nearly all of them be
long to a number of societies."
- Most of the Polish men carry life
insurance and many of them insure
their wives and children.
The families in Father Gluba's par
ish are large. The average number is
eight in a family.
"Well, there were fifteen of us in
our family," was the smiling comment
of the priest, when he spoke of the
, size of the families.
. The wives of many of the Polish
men in Father Gluba's parish arc
still in Europe.
Stockmen Say Hogs Should Be
'. Put in Pasture to Get Results
Stockmen say we can have both
lork and grain if feeders would real
ze that hogs are good grazers.
"Put the hogs in a good pasture and
:here will be more corn for corn
sread," said a prominent stockman.
"Hogs will cat an abundance of
?reen forage. Hogs which run in al
alfa. clover and rape give good re
sults. Of course, a great deal cannot
be expected from a poor pasture,
tvhere horses and sheep keep the
jrass too short for hogs, but more
Dastur: and less grain for the hog
.vould mean a big thing in food con
servation." .
Manly Chaps Caught in
Draft in South Omaha
"For the most part the thirty-seven
ncn we examined Thursday night
vere big, clean fellows." said Perry
A'heeler of the South Side exemption
ward.
"They were all sober; a few of them
,vere nervous. Some wanted exemp
ion. some didn't care They were en
irely human. The majority seemed
to fee! that it was something that. has
i ) be and take it as a matter of course
And, after all, that is a manly attitude
to take."
Of those examined only six were
rejected and they must undergo a
second examination.

A big cottonwood tree, which haaatood
as a landmark at the corner of Thirty

was blown down during the windstorm of
Thursday morning. It blocked the street
and pollre officers hauled it out of the road.

"There is no doubt in my mind but
that officers made a mistake when
thy entered these homes without
search warrants," said Police Magis
trate Madden, Thursday morning,
during the trial of Joe Koveu, Twen
ty-sixth and P streets: Mary Covrv
Dan Covry, Mary Such, all of 5320
south Twenty-eighth street, and Dan

session of liquor.
Officer Kundtson testified on the
evening of July 30 he saw a crowd
of Roumanians get off the Missouri
Pacific train with suitcases suspi
ciously heavy. Some of the crowd
saw him and ducked into the station
He followed Joe Koveu up the street
and asked him what he was carrying
in the suitcase. He said, clothes.
but when he was questioned further
he finally admitted that he 'had
little whisky."
Liauor in Suitcase.
He was taken to the South Side
police station, where his suitcase was
opened and was found to contain five
gallons of liquor. Koveu was put in
jail and in a short time Mary Covry
appeared at the police station and
asked how much she would have to
pay to get him out. Police Captain
jonn tsnggs jokingly said:
"Well, it'll cost you about $2,000.
That started things.
Mary Covry said: "Why don't you
get the ottiers, too:
The officers assured her they
would if they knew who to get. She
led them first to the home of Dan
Filiph, 2423 P street, where thev
saia tney touna a number or jugs lull
of whisky and alcohol; then to the
home at 5320 South Twenty-eighth
street, where the Lovry s and the
Suches live,, where they found eight
gallons ot intoxicating liquors. Last
ly they visited the home of Daniel
Bodos, 2516 P street, who had also
returned from St. Joseph with a suit
case, but here they found no liauor,
roiice juage Madden released the
Roumanians in police court this
morning because, he conceded, the
evidence had been obtained illegally.
i regret that the law which pro
tects our homes hinders prosecution
when there has been an open viola
tion of the law, but in this case it
seems that there is nothing I can do."
C. F. Connolly, attorney for the de
fendants, has filed a petition asking
that the liquor which was taken from
his clients be returned to them. They
allege that it was purchased before

Says Search Unreasonable.
At the trial Thursday C. F. Con
nolly, attorney for the defendants.
said:
The sacredrtess of our homes and
their protection from unreasonable
search are provided for in the const!
tution of the United States.. Private
homes cannot be searched unless the
officers have search warrants."
He quoted from decisions of the
federal courts and district courts and
spoke of the decision handed, down
by Judge Fitzgerald in the central oo
lice court in Omaha about a week
ago, when he ruled that no homes
should be searched without warrants.
Police Magistrate Madden took the
csae under advisement until Fndav.
l here was no evidence airainst Dan
codos and he was dismissed.
Joe Koveu, who was arrested on
the street before he reached home
with his suitcase of liquor, was fined

Dispute Over Clothes .Repairing
Bill Lands Two Men in Court
A dispute as to the cost of fixing
up a suit ot secondhand clothes was
aired in South Side police court
Thursday morning, when Harry Kal
nick appeared against Joe Misel,
whom he charged with assault and
battery.
"It would be useless, it is impossi
ble for me to hit such a big fellow,
pleaded Kalnick. "Why, he is three
times as big as me. I would never
strike so big a fellow."
When the men started to explain a
coat that cost $1.50, was cleai.ed for
75 cents and marked to sell at $6, Po
lice Magistrate Madden shook his
head and sent them on their way.
Thief Takes Cash, Tobacco

"What is ihe sex of a thief who
stole 100 cigars and forty packages
of tobacco and a bottle of perfume
from the Royal drug store, Twen
tieth and Q streets, Thursday night?"
is a question worrying South Side po
lice. The drug store was broken into
through the front door. Nine dollars
and fifty cents was taken from the

That
You
May Do
Your "Bit"
In this great world war in
the interest of humanity and
democracy, it is the desire and
intentions of every man, woman
and child to do their "bit" to
the best of their ability.
Some will give their lives,
others money, while still others
of their time and labor.
For you who wish to do some
thing for the benefit of the
"boys" who have gone to fight
for the country's causa we have
arranged to set aside a special
section near the Art Embroid
ery Department on the Third
Floor, where you can come and
spend an hour or so or a whole
day if you wish, making band
ages, comfort kits, knit sweat
ers, wristlets and the like.
This work will be under the
direction of the Omaha Chapter
of the Red Cross with com
petent instructors to show you
how to do this work.
This special Section will be
in readiness next Monday so
when you are down town and
have an hour or so to spend,
come up to this section and do
something for the boys'
France.
