KINDLY HEART
BRINGS GRIEF
TO GIRL OWNER
Takes Pity on Acquaintance
Who Then Shows grati
tude by Stealing Clothes '
- and Property.
A little box addressed to Mrs. Rose
Ohaus, superintendent of the board
of public welfare, arrived in Omaha
Friday morningjust a little box. but
round it centers a tale of broken
"friendship and base ingratitude.
J here was a girl in Umaha named
Stella. She was late to her work in
the morning and she watched the
clock all afternoon for closing time.
Whenever there was especially hard
work to be done, she went home with
a headache, yhen she went out with
the girls on a pleasure excursion she
forgot her pocketbook, and she for
got later to pay beck the money
loaned her.
One day Stella lost her job. She
had no money and her landlady had
no pity on her. Pity had proved ex
pensive so many times that she was
through. Then came Nell, with more
heart than judgment.
Nell shared her room with Stella,
paid her board and gave her the
sweetest of all gifts, sympathy.
A few days later a friend or Stella's
met her on the street and offered her
a seat in his car, in which he was
drivitrg back to her old home. Stella
accepted and ran to get ready for the
trip. In her haste, perhaps, she for
got to call Nll up. She forgot, also,
which were her clothes and which
were Nell's. She filled her suitcase
with all the wearing apparel in 'the
room, and even included Nell's service
pin, with the three stars representing
three brothers at the front.
When Nell came home at night she
found no clean waist for morning, no
change of clothes after a hot day. and
her room-mate and friend had gone.
The landlady said, "I told you so."
Straight to the board of public wel
fare went Nell and told her troubles
to Mrs. Ohaus. Letters were sent
to the welfare boards in towns where
Stella had friends, and Friday morn
ing the little box arrived from Nor
folk. Nell is a happy girl once more,
and a wiser girl as well. $
Asks New Trial.
A motion for a new trial for Lena
Heaton has been filed by her attor
ney, A, H. Murdock, on the ground

pital was 'based on error and insuffi
cient evidence. He says also that the
court erred in admitting testimony of
Dr. Palmer Findlev, medical director
of the city detention home, and of
other physicians who examined the
woman for social 'diseases.
