THE BEE: OMAHA, MONDAY. APRIL 14, 1919. OMAHA MAN SIIOTtias,hbiJ'o BY DETECTIVE HID IN BLUFFS Marvin De Lor, Held for At tempted Murder, Relates ..Experiences to Officer on . Way From Kansas City. Marvin' De Lor, alleged sate blower, who was brought to Omaha from Kansas City Saturday night to face a Charge of attempting to kill ' Detective Fritz Franks of Omaha, told Detective Jack Pszanowski on hi way back the story of how he evaded Omaha and Council Bluffs police for a month, although his breast had been pierced by a bullet from the detective's gun. '. De Lor related that on February 11 he hit -Sergt. Dan Pugh over the head with a revolver and that when Detectives' Franks and Gra - ham attempted to arrest him at his home, 1715 Clark street, at 3 o'clock the following morning, he shot his way to freedom. "One of their bullets hit me in the back when I ran off the front porch," De Lor told Pszanowski. "I could feel the sting of it when :t emerged from my breast. I went to Council Bluffs and a woman took care of me there for over a month. I was mjt own doctor. I was care ful to see that no infection set in and the wound healed up all right. Then I went to Kansas City and they arrested me." Frank's coat was pierced twice by bullets from De Lor's gun. An anonymous "tip" to the Coitn cil Bluffs police said De Lor was in hiding in Council Bluffs, but all efforts of the police to locate him were fruitless. : ' ' . - S Daddy Totes Baby ..About While Wife Is Visiting Friends ' Elmer Wagen, 2022 Webster street, walked down Douglas street at i o'clock Saturday morning with his 18-months-old baby in his arms in an effort to quiet his offspring. His . wife, he explained to the jjolice. had left home at 1 o'clock Friday after noon and he hadn't heard from her since. "The baby was crying so -hard, I had to take her for a walk," he explained. I Mrs. Wagen turned up at her home yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock. "I was visiting with some friends," she told the police. j Last night Elmer had to take " baby Marion for another walk so he walked down to the police sta " ton to return the overcoat he had borrowed on his previous walk in order to keep Marion warm. "My wife rode downtown with 4 me,v said Elmer, "but she got off the car at Sixteenth and Dodge and ? said she was going to a party and that she'd be home about midnight.

OFPCRINOJ FOR TODAY MAE MARSH, appearing in "Spotlight Sadie" at the Muse has an interesting and telling photodrama of an Irish girl in New Vorlc She is Sadie Sullivan, de scribed as "a whimsical product of Old Erin," who comes to New York and in time embarks on a theatrical career, becoming, by reason of her shyness and aloofness, "the saintly showgirl" in a dashing musical comedy. Contrasting sharply with her innocence is, the worldly wis dom of her associates. This is cruelly brought to her attention when she falls in love with a young man claimed- as the especial proper ty of the leading lady. Sadie learns that her natural tastes have been used to exploit the company, through the press agent's activities. A startling solution comes cat of this tangle in which Sadie finally triumphs. Geraldine Farrar, supported by Milton Sills and Thomas Santschi, is appearing in "Shadows" at the Strand theater. Miss Farrar as Muriel Barnes, wife of a New York financier, is happily wedded, but she never told her husband of her dance hall days in Alaska for fear her happiness would be wrecked. When Craftely seeks to gain her husband's support in a mining scheme, she sees the first cloud or shadow appear upon the horizon of her married life. Craftly recog nizes the financier's wife as the dance hall girl whose picture his partner, Jack McGoff, carries in an ticipation of her return. After be ing warned by his wife Barnes re fuses to invest in Craftley's scheme. Craftley telephones her and calls her by a name which reveals his knowl edge of her past. He orders her, at peril of having him learn of her now forgotten life, to persuade her husband to enter the deal. She ex tricates herself from the complica tion after many serious situations. Charlie Chaplin appears in one of his famous laughmakers, "The Bank." The Pathe news weekly is also shown. An interesting love drama is in terwoven in the sordid life of San Francisco's-Chinatown and a clean up campaign by the city's finest in "The Midnight Patrol," at the Rialto theater. Thurston , Hall portrays Terrance Shannon, sergeant of the Chinese vice squad, in the leading role. Rosemary Theby plays the part of Patsy O'Connell, the young woman in charge of the Chinese mission house. Wu Fang is plot ting with Jim Murdock to keep the police from interfering on the night AT THE THEATERS ORPtfEUM patrons were favored yesterday with another big time vaudeville program. Each act had merit and several won unstinted applause. "The Heart of Annie Wood," is a musical allegory with poetic dia logue and a little dancing to add to the interest. Edna Pendleton, in the title role, portrays a country girl who has to decide between go ing to the big city and raising the dickens, or remaining in her coun try village and caring for the chick ens. She chooses the latter course, which proves thatf Annie was a wise little girl. The act is artistically presented by a company of five young people. Bert Baker provoked continuous laughter by his own one-act farce, "Prevarication," in which a riot of domestic entanglements are de veloped and cleared up. Unusual interest attends the "Shrapnel Dodgers," in "A Night in a Billet," on account of the per sonnel of the act. Sergts. Blake, Parker and Cook and Corp. Healty, Canadians, were all "over there." One suffered a paralyzed arm and another is almost bereft of sight. The act goes big on its merit. Bailey and Cowan, animated in strumentalists and singers, received several encores yesterday after noon. They are a bit more clever than the usual run of musical acts. William Smythe is the tenor who signs his way into favor. Johannes Josefsson gives a thrilling exhibi tion of "gliina," the national art of self-defense in Iceland. Strength and dexterity are combined in a manner which is a revelation. Burns and Frabitoo are amusing in their Italian-dialect skit, "Shoo's." The kinogram and Orpheum travel week ly motion pictures are interesting. "Fit to Win" is a propaganda fiimiandj On the Screen Today. BIALTO THOMAS H. INCE'S "THE MIDNIGHHT PATROL." SUN J.

Just as the Chinks are about to throw Terrance into the pit, Pat O'Shea arrives with the reserves. Wu Fang is killed and Murdock taken pris oner. Shannon hurries to release Patsy.

In "The End of the Game," in which J. Warren Kerrigan is star ring at the Sun theater the popular hero of many screen romances has a chance to display some more of that fighting, riding and athletic ability for which he is famous both on and off the screen. In the role of Burke Allister, he plays the west ern gunman from a new angle, mak ing him a better sort of chap than usually depicted in motion pictures. Lois Wilson, the charming young leading lady of all the recent Kerri gan features, has a role particularly suited to her talents. film, in a sense; it is more than that, however, for it is instructive as well. It presents facts that most men are familiar with, but in a way that drives home certain wholesome truths, and in addition it carries some further information that all do not possess. Plain terms are used, and forceful statements are made in simple language, that any may un derstand. It is neither sensational nor salacious; merely a plain warn ing to the inexperienced or unwary of the dangers that lie in wait along the road of indulgence. The tale of the five soldiers around whom the story of the film is formed might happen in any of its incidents; per haps did happen in most. In this regard the simplicity of the appeal makes it the more penetrating. As part of the campaign aimed at min imizing if not eliminating social dis ease this film, which was prepared under, government supervision for use iii the army, and now is being shown under government auspices, ought to be valuable. It was viewed yesterday by as many men as the Boyd theater could accommodate at each presentation, and probably will continue to draw crowds all the rest of the week. The coming of the great violinist, Mischa Elman, to the Brandeis on Thursday, April 17, shows a heavy sale of seats. Since the war began. Mr. Elman has given an average of IS concerts each season for the benefit of the Red Cross. Nothing prettier has been seen on the Gayety s stage than the aquatic act of the Six Diving Belles, who constitute one of the vaudeville turns, with "The Hip, Hip, Horray! Girls," this week's big musical at traction. The divers show all man ners of fancy and trick diving. 'To morrow night as an extra feature there will be an amateur diving contest for local male swimmers; on Friday night for local' femine divers, for trophy cups in each case. Ladies' matinee daily at 2:15. "Micky" is coming to the Bran deis theater Friday, April 18, for an engagaement of six days, to delight the fans ana show them the best comedy since "Tillie's Punctured Romance." It" has thrills, romance, heart interest and youthful charm chucked into it in wholesome quan tities and one would be a grouch, indeed, who did not feel the impulse of its appeal. "The Common Cause," the first big "after-the-war" screen produc tion to be exhibited after the armis tice, is to be shown at the Bran deis today, Tuesday and Wednes day. Herbert Rawlinson and Sylvia Breamer, popular young stars, are featured at the head of a cast which includes Huntley Gordon, Lawrence Grossmith, Charles and Violet Blackton, children of the producer; Phillip Van Lorn, Louis Dean and Mile. Marcel, a well-known French actress. One of the outstanding features of "The Common Cause" is the fine comedy that is introduced. Law rence Grossmith, the famous Eng lish comedian, is the leading fun taker, and with a poilu and a Fisnch girl, produces some of the most enjoyable comedy the screen has ever seen. The Panama Trio in a syncopated singing act headline the Empress theater. , Aside from their singing all three of the gjrls are clever dancers. A laughable comedy sketch, "Dropping a Hint," is offered by Willard Hutchinson and Collctc Sother. John Geiger with his "Talk ing Violin," imitates the human voice, warbling birds, animal sounds, bagpipe, church organ and other fa miliar sounds. Little Pipifax, vaude ville's funniest clown, and his ac complice, perform acrobatic feats and pantomimic feats hard to imi tate.

New York, April 13. Only five out of 22 principal industrial groups throughout the country reported a condition of general prosperity in replies to a questionnaire sent to its 4,400 members by the National Association of Manufacturers. A digest of the replies, issued to day by the association, showed that 16 out of the 22 groups into which its membership was divided report- Led business below 50 per cent of normal pre-war conditions. The seventeenth, leather, and leather manufacturers, reported trade about equally divided between , fair and good. . In response to a request for sug? gestions to help general prosperity the replies enumerated a total of 11 obstacles laying in the path of a re turn to normal conditions. Obstacles to Trade. Michael J. Hickey, who prepared the digest for the association, placed the 11 in the following order of im portance, estimated according to the relative emphasis laid upon them by the association members; ' (1) Delay in signing the treaty of peace. 1 , (2) General high cost of labor and material. (3) Sudden cessation of war buying operations by the United States and foreign governments. (4) Hand to mouth buying by jobbers, retailers and consumets awaiting expected price reductions. (5) Continued government con trol and management of railroads, etc. (6) Sudden imposition of heavy war revenue tax burdens on in dustry. (7) Labor unrest, agitation and industrial strife. (8) High prices of wheat due to government guarantee. (9) rUnemployment and poor distribution of labor forces released from naval or military service. (10) Delay in settlement by fed eral government of claims 'for pay ment under informal war contracts. (11) Partial shutting off of im portant European markets, due to import trade embargoes by Great Britain, France and Italy. What Is Needed. The digest thus summarizes the opinions of the association members as to what is needed to promote national prosperity and a return, to sormal conditions: "Stop war time extravagance; re turn the railroads and the wires to the owners; modify taxes on in dustry; let the government bear the losses on wheat the foundation of food prices; abolish war-period reg ulating agencies; let increased pro duction justify high wages; have the government pay its war bills; inaugurate public works; educate the public in the elements of eco nomics." The digest does not give a very optimistic outlook in respect to im proved business conditions for this year. After remarking that the pro duction of iron and steel is univer sally regarded in business circles as the most reliable trade barometer, it says that the replies from this in dustry show trade in a state of com parative lethargy and prospects for 1919 not bright. Oppose Government Ownership. ' An overwhelming percentage of the members, 100 per cent in seven groups, and above 95 per cent .in the remainder, declared themstlves opposed to any form of government ownership and urged the return of the railroads to their private own ers. Government regulation was approved in 80 per cent of the total replies received. The labor problem was dealt with in three questions; "Do you favor or oppose a legally constituted national board for the adjudication of labor disputes?" "Are you in favor of legislation imposing legal responsibility 'on trade unions?" i "Do you favor or oppose the re peal of the La Foilette seamen's act?" " . The vote on the first question showed 64 per cent in favor of a national adjuciation board, but some important qualifications were made. The digest' declares that the com ments showed general dissatisfac tion with the presetit national war labor board on the ground that it has conceded too much to the labor side. The greatest unanimity shown on any question was in regard to the placing of statutory responsibility on trade unions for their contracts and the acts of their agents. Less than one-half of one per cent of the replies were negative. The opposition to the repeal of the La toilette seamen s law was also very small, being less than 7 1-2 per cent. Strawberry Lovers Should Investigate Everbearing Variety Those who wish a dish of straw berries out of ; season -should not pass up the chance to get a start in the everbearing variety this spring, says R. H. Howard, head of the department of horticulture, University of Nebraska. While the everbearing variety is not a heavy producer, and can hardly be called profitable for commercial purposes, unless one has a market that will pay a big price, they do produce well for homeluse. ;AM through the summer arid : the ,fall until hard frost a little patch of them will pro vide many a family dish. The university has found the Progressive to be a good ever-bearing variety. Several varieties were tested at the university farm. The Progressive withstands the hard winters well and yields as well or better than most others. It is dis ease resistant, especially to ieaf spot diseases. Everbearing strawberries can be set out any time now. The piants do well a foot apart in the row, with the rows from two to four feet apart. Unless the plants are extra ordinarily vigorous they should not be allowed to bear the first year. Flowers will appear soon after they re set, and should be removed. Late in the summer, if the phnts show vigor, they sometimes cm he allowed to bear. Not more than year-old plants should be set out. Such plants can be recognized by their white roots. Immediately after the first hard freeze in the fall the plants should be well covered with straw, to pre vent thawing and freezing of the soil.

"My health began to break down about six years ago," continued Mrs. Thomas, "and I took all kinds of medicines in the " hope that I would run across something that would help me, but nothing did, and I kept getting worse all the time. I was not only in a badly run-down condition, but my liver and kidneys bothered me terribly and my stom ach got so bad that almost every thing I ate disagreed with me and I would have terrible pains after every meal, and I was worse off if I ate anything that was the least bit greasy. I also had rheumatism, and the pain from it at times was so awful I could hardly bear it, and some times I'd nearly fall and would have to catch hold of something until the pain got easier. .
