THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, MAT 24, 1919. Ml RUI M CRISIS Ifl HUN CABINET; LEADERS LEAVE Unexpected. Departure of the Chancellor and - Others .. Leads to All Sorts , J of Reports. Berlin, May 23. (By Associated Press.) The unexpected departure of Chancellor Scheidemann, Count von Bernstorff, Dr. Bernhard Dern !berg and Dr. Bell, the colonial min ister for Spa last night started a re sumption of rumors of a cabinet crisis. Reports of dissensions in the cabinet have been most prom inent during the past few days. The cabinet had an animated ses sion today which resulted in Scheide" xnann and the others leaving Berlin. It was denied in official circles that tht hurried trip to Spa had any other significance than a desire to get in closer communication with Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau. Warden Discharged By Reform Board and ; Prisoners Strike Rawlins, Wyo., May 23. Every one of the 280 convicts at the Wyoming state penitentiary struck yesterday when the state board of charities and reform refused to re instate C. L. Martin, former warden. Martin was removed two weeks ago on the allegation that discipline at the institution was poor. - The prisoners ' late in the day threw down their tools ana turned off the power in the prison shirt factory. The acting warden, and guards, placed the men in solitary confinement today, wfcere they will be kept, it is announced, until they agree to work. Members of the board Nof charities and reform will arrive in Rawlins tomorrow to inves tigate. -Warden Martin formerly was a minister and school teacher and had attempted many reforms at the peni tentiary.

H .-' Dlnetom 79 MEN OF 89TII PROUDLY GARRY SERVICE CROSS Middlewest 1 Division' Was Nicknamed "Fighting Farm ers" by Enemy and Com rade of the A. E. F. : (Colon Pacific Press Bureau.) New York, May 23. (Special.) Here are a few pithy, paragraphs about the 89th division, some of them brought back by the men them selves, others by their companions in the A. E. F. who saw the mid western fighters in action. ' ' Ninety-seven distinguished serv ice crosses were won 'by men of the 89th division, according to the War department figures. Only 16 other units exceeded this number. When ' an organization gets a nickname frpm its comrades in arms or its enemies, it can be considered a success. That is why the name of Fighting farmers gained by the 89th is considered a compliment, al though the unit is officially the 89th or Middlewest division.. When the football team of the 89th won the A. E. F. championship at Coblenz, it completed an athletic record second ttf no other division. In its olav as in its nehtinsr. the mid western organization showed speed, initiative and pep. . Aismen Praise 89th. Perhaps the most sincere praisen received by the cvth comes trom many air service officers, who have declared that the co-ooeration given them by the western troops was of the best at every stage of the game, In the Bois de Bantheville, it has been said, the 89th was intrusted with the capture of a pivotal point in tne vrgonne-Aieuse operation ana second to none in importance. This together with the fact of the heavy fighting as "shock trdops" given the division, is considered one of the highest unspoken compliments re. ceived by the men. It was in a raid on Donmartin wood in the St. Mihiel drive. A lieu tenant was Seen to whirl and. stum ble. -"Are you hit?" yelled a fellow officer. ."Nicked Jn the arm, but going like hell!," gritted the lieutenant as he again dashed forward. Praise Other Organizations. A noticeable thing among the re turning veterans is the tendency to lavish praise on other organizations. They all have something to say re garding the outfits supporting them, which they supported or fought be side and the inclination speaks well for the unity and spirit of the corps of the division. Many freaks of shell fire are de scribed by the returning men who tell of cases where men were picked off from the middle of the crowd, or wounded when others nearest the burst were unhurt. "To what do you give most credit for the splendid record of the 89th?" an officer of the division was asked. "The bulk' of the success of the 89th as well as that the entire A. E F.." he replied, can be credited to the enlisted man and the junior of fir cer, the ; two grades which, in the final analysis fight the battles. It was their indomitable courage,, un selfish heroism and supreme self- sacrificing under even the hardest of conditions which made the Amer ican army invincible. Leonard and Myrtle Colored, Decide to Try Married Life Agab Leonard Washington, 29 years old. and Myrtle Washington, 31 years old, met on North Sixteenth street lhursday atternoon. it was the first time they had seen each other since their divorce was grant ed in Salt Lake City two years ago. Well, where have you been all this time, honey?" asked Leonard. "Oh, I ve jus been sorta driftin around," said Myrtle. "How's the world treatin you?" "I can't complain, Myrtle, except I certainly made a mistake when I let you get that divo'ce," responded Leonard. Kinda think I made a mistake in separating from my honey boy, too," acknowledged Myrtle. "Supposing we fix it all up again r ventured Leonard. You j certainly elucidated my thoughts, honey man," said Myrtle. The colored pair tooic a street car to the court house. The license was made out. Leonard paid the $2. He called for the judge to marry them. "I've got $1.50 left,"Tie said. He was told that she legal fee is $2. "Well, we'll go to a minister then," said Myrtle. "He'll do it Mr $1. I want it, done up right this tinje." .. The air departed in a blaze ot happiness.
