the distance to Omaha."

a bank roll of $45. Mr. Browar de

the roll of bills just in time to see
the woman disappear in the crowd.
SIMPLY HAD TO
HAVE A CHANGE,
SAYS TRUANT WIFE
Thrills All Over. Is Now
Ready for Home
Again.
An experimental vacation with a
man just to make life more inter
esting was the reason given by Mrs.
Clare Steeves, 24 years old, for run
ning away two months ago from
her husband, Sylvester M. Steeves,
35 years old, Fort Dodge, la.
She and Robert Stewart, 27 years
old, 1525 South Twenty-fifth street,
were arrested at 1:45 yesterday
morning for adultery on a warrant
sworn out by Mr. Steeves.. Stewart
is also being held for Department
of Justice officials on a Mann act
charge. v
According to Mr. Steeves, his
wife kissed him goodby to go on a
vacation in Minneapolis. When at
the appointed time she did not re
turn, he began a search and learned
his wife was living in Omaha with
Robert Stewart.
Stewart declines to talk of the
matter. In the matron's department
at the police station yesterday morn
ing. Mr. Steeves and his prodigal
wife held a long conversation.
Life Was So Common.
"Syl, I just tried the game this
time because life was so, common,"
the wife cried. "It was nothing
more than an experimental vacation
with someone my own age, so I'd
enjoy the thrills of life for a change.
I love that man and simply had
to go with him when he asked me.
You know variety is the spice of life.
Every one wants something differ
ent at one time in their life."
Mrs, Steeves professed contrition
for' her act and declared she was
ready to return home with her hus
band. An automobile headlight has been
invented with a. large reflector for
use on rough and dangerous roads
and turns and a smaller one for
service on straight and smooth
paths.

Information That Prohibitionists of America Are Rais
ing a Fund of $150,Q00,000 to Make Europe and
Especially Britain Dry Has Aroused England's
Antis to Start Pitched Battle With Invaders and
- No Quarter Will Be Asked on Either Side.
London, Sept. 26. (By Universal
Service.) Information that the pro
hibitionists of America are raising a
fund of $150,000,000 to make Europe,
and especially, Great Britain, dry,
has aroused England's "wet" forces
as never before. From now on it
will be a pitched battle, with no
quarter. '
The Anti'Prohibition league, with
branches throughout the British
isles, has organized parliamentary
committees, intending to force the
defeat of any attempted "dry" legis
lation in the commons. The or
ganization claims to have enough
strength now to "crush the prohibi
tion interests.
Laborite'for "Wets." .
Ben Tillott, a member of Parlia
ment and a strong laborite, has
come to the "wet" forefront. He is
addressing meetings all over Wales,
declaring that the people of Britain
are solidly against the invasion of
the American "drys." One meeting
was attended by 50,000 persons, who
unanimously protested against their
being deprived of drink.
The real battle area is in Scot
land, where local option will be
voted on next year. The "wets"
there are Organizing every parish by
meetings and propaganda.
Sir James Crichton Browne, an
eminent Scotch physician, put him
self on record thus:
Deride Pussyfoot Johnson.
"Prohibition is a recrudescence of
the inordinate element of Puritan
ism. The British bulldoe. when
aroused, will make short work of
Fussyfoot Johnson.
Johnson is the leader of the
American "dry" forces in Britain,
who has already thrown a scare into
the ranks of the "wets" by address
ing a series of business men's meet
ings throughout the country. He
has taken a 23-year lease on his
office here and is showing intentions
of remaining in Britain for some
time.
The wine growers of France,
Spain and Italy are pledging their
support to the "anti-drys" and con
tributing to the vast fund that is
being raised to offset the reported
American financial backing of the
"drys" here. The. wine growers,
threatened with absolute ruin if
prohibition succeeds, are offering
their last dollars in the effort to
drive the prohibition bugbear from
Europe. .
An armour plated expansion
joint for concrete roadways has
been patented to allow for changes
in tempature and prevent edges of
the concrete chipping.
Public Schools of
Omaha May Start
Weekly Newspaper
The public schools of Omaha will
issue a newspaper, starting Novem
ber 1. The paper will be a lour
fto eight-page one and will be is
sued probably every week.
"Thirty thousand copies will be
printed," said Superintendent of
Schools Beveridge. "The orintitie
department of the High School of
commerce win ao tne work and
the papers will be distributed free
to the children in all the schools to
take home to. their parents.
"The idea is to get a closer co
operation among the schools and
from the parents."
.Assistant Superintendent Belle
Ryan, Miss Martha Powell, princi
pay of Long school, and Miss.Claire
Mackin of the South High school,
have been appointed a permanent
committee to have the paper in
charge. The staff of editors and re
porters will be changed frequently,
to give various pupils a chance at
"journalism."
The paper has not been named,
but either a classic or a coined
name will be used. The "Ombe
dunflor" has been suggested, being
a name coined with syllables from
Omaha, Benson, Dundee and Flor
ence. Police Sample Alleged
Liquor; Find Cold Tea
St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 26. Ed
ward Ferguson, a negro, . walked
into the Dayton street police sta
tion here and asked Captain James
Johnson to taste the liquid in two
quart bottles labeled "Old Crow
whiskey," Johnson summoned an
expert from the force. The expert
pronounced the liquid cold tea. The
negro said he paid two men $3.50
for it. On complaint of the negro,
John Hollihan and Thomas Tuohy
