4 iHE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, JULY 1,' 1919. CITY COUNCIL FAVORS SALE OF ICE ON SUNDAY Public Protests Result In Or dinance Amendment Per ' mitting Sale On Sundays at the Plants. In committee' of the whole yes terday the city council recom mended for passage Mayor Smi'h's tee ordinance amendment, permit ting the sale of ice on Sundays at tlie plants Mayor Smith maintained an atti tude against Sunday ice sales until public protest forced him to com ply with popular demand. For weeks he held out against the dis tribution of ice on Sundays, even going to the length of withholding it from homes where sickness ren dered its use imperative. When told that hjs exclusion of ice from homes where sickness demanded its use, and that his stand would be respon sible for many deaths in Omaha, the mayor would not relent, but attemp ted to mitigate the conditions by providing that Sunday sales of ice would have to be made on prescrip ions of physicians.

The mayor was obdurate, and before he would agree to allow Sunday sales he wired nearly all the large cities of the country to ascertain their practice. Upon learning that his stand was frowned on by the mayors in the majority of metropolitan cities, Mayor Smith reluctantly agreed to modify his ruling. "I am not in favor of a general repeal of the ordinance allowing ice wagons on the streets on Sunday," he said. "This amendment simply allows the sale at the plants to per sons who go after their ice."

Order a case from Former City Prosecutor Is Arrested on Long Feud Between John cutor Murray Comes Taken Into Custody on- A long feud between the former city prosecutor, John M. Berger, and the present one, Thomas B. Murray, came to a climax yester day, when the latter signed a war rant and ordered the arrest of Mr. Berger on a charge of being an in mate of a disorderly house. Mr. Berger was arrested and later re leased after furnishing" a $100 bond. Mr. Berger was arrested in front of 61S North Seventeenth street when detectives Sunday evening raided a house at 617 North Seven teenth street, conducted by Agnes Miller, who was arrested and charged rith being the keeper of a disorderly house. With Mrs. Miller one man, Everett Fox, and three other women, Ruth Morrison, Ruth McClane and Bessie Weinberger were arrested. Ruth Morrison in police court yesterday was sentenced to a 30-day jail term, Ruth McClane and Bessie Weinberger forfeited their bonds, and the case against Agnes Miller was continued. According to Mr. Berger, his suc cessor has threatened more than once to "get him," because Berger took such an active part in the de fense of women, alleged to have been "railroaded" to the city deten tion home. In several cases where women had been sent to the deten tion home, Mr. Berger filed appeals to the state supreme court.

Two pickpockets, who have been working in Omaha for the last week eluding the police, operated on street cars here Sunday According to the reports made at the police station by victims, the efforts of the thieves Sunday netted them $385. The "squeeze play" was the method employed in nearly every case. It is the practice of the pickpockets to single out their intended victim as he is getting on or off of a car. One of the thieves blocks the way of the pas senger in front while the other searches his pockets from behind. P. J. White. 4015 North Twenty fifth street, missed his pocket book containing $125 shortly after board ing a car at Sixteenth and Locust streets. Oscar Olson, 6911 North Twenty fourth street, found his wallet miss ing shortly after getting on a car at Sixteenth and Farnam streets. His purse contained $65. J. B. Rawlings, a guest at the Conant hotel, was "touched" for $200 on a Benson street car shortly after he had boarded it at four teenth and Harney streets. Two holdups staged Sunday night were also reported to the police. At the point of a revolver, Alfred Walton, Plaza hotel, was forced to get into an automobile while he was standing at Eighteenth and Daven port streets with a friend. The rob bers drove him to Twenty-fifth and Chicago streets and, after taking $35 from him, commanded him to "beat it."l The friend, whose name police have not learned, was also robbed. Charles Phillips, 510 South Twen ty-fifth avenue, was robbed of $25 at Twenty-sixth and St. Mary's ave nue, by two armed men, while a supposedly disinterested spectator looked on and laughted. Phillips said the "spectator" refused to come to his assistance. Fined for Alleged Assault W. A. Smith, 6902 Military avenue. was fined $15 and costs yesterday morning in police court for an al leged assault on C. M. Axhelm, 2703 North Sixty-fifth avenue.

Sheriff Mike Clark returned yes terday from a trip to his boyhood home in Tarrytown, N. Y. It was the first vacation trip Mike has taken to any great distance in 39 years and it was the first time Mrs. Clark had been out of Ntbraska. Mike visited the "ol swimmin' hole" and found that it didn't look at all like it did when he was a bov. He visited the old school where he' played and learned as a boy. "I met the janitor and asked him if I could look around. I pointed out a door where I told him I used to put a tincup up and fix it so that it would tip over and spill water on 'Humpy' Rose, the janitor of our day. 'Yes, and them damn boys does the same 'thing to me some times,' the janitor told me. "The house where I was born is still standing. I took pictures of the docks where I used to swim." Mike says he didn't indulge in any orgies. His nephew in Brooklyn invited him into a third parlor one day and they ordered a "horse's neck." "All it was, was a piece of lemon in a glass filled up with ginger ale and it costs 60 cents," said Mike.

"A friend of mine who lives t HniHf h fin ii. iK i. mi i ififyii. iiit'iiif'iii I ever came across in my life," said A. S. Thomas, a well known farmer who lives in Munice, Kansas, while talking With a Tanlac representa tive the other day. "When I commenced taking Tan- lac, cuubuiueu lux. uuiuas, couldn't walk as much as one block without having to stop two or three times to rest. Every part of my system seemed to be in a very i t i i I.. a: J HT rpl.--. UT weaK, runaown conaiuon, wmcn was the after effects of a spell of 1 the "Flu" I had about three months ) ago. Ever since I got up from this spell, my stomach has been in such bad condition that I couldn't eat anything heavy at all, but just had to live on the lightest kind of food. Even the few things I did eat would sour on my stomach, and I would be bloated up with gas for hours afterwards. My kidneys were in bad condition, too, and I would have to get up four or five times every night I was constipated all the time, and would have bad head aches nearly every day, and would often get so dizzy that I could hard ly stand on my feet. Then it jusf seemed that every nerve in my bods was completely unstrung, and i never got a good night's sleep. Why, I was actually so nervous at times that I couldn't raise a cup of tea to my lips. I tried all sorts of medicine, but I never got any better until I got started on this Tanlac. "Well, sir, I hadn t taken more than half a bottle of Tanlac before I began to improve, and from that day to this I have picked up about as fast as a man could. I never had such an appetite in my life, and I eat just anything I want and that is about everything I see that is good to eat and I never suffer the least bit afterwards. My stom ach is in first class condition now. and my kidneys seem to be all right, too, for I am not bothered about getting up all hours of the night like I was before I took Tan lac. My nerves are as steady as a clock now, and I get in eight or nine hours good, sound sleep every nieht. Why, I am so well and strong in every way that I walk many miles every day now, and it doesn t tire me at all. ies, sir, Tanlac is a real medicine, and I am so happy over what it has done for me that I just want to spread the eod news far and wide, for I want to help others who sufle as I did."
