PAT CROWE WILL
GET POSITION
IN WASHINGTON
Famous Kidnaper of Omaha
'Youth Promised Help
in Attempt to
Reform.
Washington, Oct. 16. (Special
Telegram.) Pat Crowe, ex-bank
robber, holdup expert and kidnaper
of Edward Cudahy's son in Omaha
nearly 20 years ago, has practically
'secured a position of trust with a
big Washington firm, according to
Vice President Warden of the Con
tinental Trust company of this city.
I Twenty or thirty years ago
throughout the west bankers shiv
ered when they heard that Pat
Crowe was in the vicinity. The news
also meant extra jobs for special
bank watchmen. Mr. Cudahy will
always have $25,000 worth of re
membrance of Pat Crowe. It cost
him that much to get his son ran
somed. Four years after the kidnaping of
young Cudahy Crowe gave himself
up. He was tried and acquitted.
Then he offered to make up the $25,
000 ransom which was taken for the
boy. The offer, was not accepted.
For the last 10 years Crowe has
been traveling the straight and
narrow path, but was finding it
hard balancing, he said today. A
few days ago, with frayed coat and
seedy trousers, he walked into the
office of the Prisoners' Relief so
ciety. He was out of a job. He
was "down on his luck," and hd
went to Dr. E. E. Dudding for help.
A distinguishing mark about his at
tire was a Red Cross button in his
coat lapel. Yesterday he was out
fitted in a clothing store here.
Gray hair grows sparsely over a
high forehead. He is more than six
f t-lt. jA together he presents
an imposing figure. He was intro
duced to Mr. Warden yesterday.
Today Mr. Warden declared that a
position had been secured for
Crowe.
i.: the conclusion of a short in
terview Thursday, when Crowe was
asked about the Cudahy case, the
onlv thing he would say was that
Cudahy probably owed him several
thousand dollars commission for the
publicity he gave him in the kid
napping case.
"He got so much publicity he had
to call his selling agents off the
road throughout the west, as my
lawyers brought out at my trial,"
he declared.

Rialto "True Heart Susie," which
is on the screen board at the Rialto,
shows three strong characters
characters one often hears about and
sometimes knows during their jour
ney through life. One is that of A
lovable, loyal girl, who never has i
chance to marry but one man, and
when that man passes her by, ages
her soul with tears and wearies her
days with waiting. Another is a
young man who goes to college, re
turns with comical conceit the pre
mier of swains, as serious to him
self as the measles. The third is a
girl who considers marriage never
a union of hearts, but a necessary
patronage, a wife of subsidy rather
than of love. It is a photoplay
drawing immense crowds.
Sun Interest In the screen ver

especially imported creations.

BODY OF WOMAN
MUTILATED AFTER
DEATH, IS CHARGE
Sheriff of Allegheny County,
Steel Strike District, Makes
Grave Allegations
Pittsburgh, Oct. 16. Sheriff Wil
liam S. Haddock of Allegheny coun
ty sent to Chairman Kenyon of the
senate committee investigating the
steel strike a letter in which he
practically charges that the body of
Fannie Sellins, an organizer for the
United Mine Workers, who was shot
and killed August 26 at West Na
trona, where there was a strike of
miners, had been deliberately muti
lated after the official autopsy to
make it appear she was shot in the
back.
The death of the woman has at
tracted much attention because of
charges made by labor union men
that she was murdered by deputy
sheriffs. The coroner's verdict de
clared she was killed during a riot.
The miners charge she was shot to
death ' while protecting children
from the sheriff's deputies. The
body was exhumed last Monday at
the instance of a relative and
Wednesday labor men sent to Chair
man Kenyon an affidavit signed by
two physicians averring that there
was a gunshot wound in the back.
The coroner's finding made no men
tion of such a wound. Some labor
leaders have referred to the Sellins
case as an example of the alleged
methods used by certain corpora
tions to defeat workers who strike
for higher wages and better work
ing conditions.

features of "A Night in Hono
lulu," which was presented at the
Brandeis theater last night by a
small company ot players, headed j
by Constance Neilson as Kalama,
the dancing girl. The play, which
breathes the atmosphere of the
Hawaiian capital, was written by
Howard McKent Barnes and it is
made up of love situations between
a native girl and several Americans.
True Powers presents an emotional
delineation of Keola, a native
woman.
Native songs with ukulele ac
companiment won considerable ap
plause. The second act is set in a
scene of moonlight, with the placid
waters of the Pacific shimmering in
the distance. Scenic effects were
offered in the third act when a
typical crater was shown. . Ray
Simmons evoked much merriment
through his characterization of
Stephen Wilkar. The music of the
"Imperial Hawaiians" was one of
the best features of the production,
which was limited to one perform
ance. When the Neil O'Brien minstrels
are seen at the Brandeis tonight and
tomorrow, with a Saturday matinee,
it will be found that a very novel
first part setting has been provided

ferent in color scheme and lighting
effects from any yet offered by this
organization. Mr. O'Brien himself
has written several new sketches;
among these are a new song and

OLD OFFICERS
RE-ELECTED BY v
HUMANE BODY
Dr. A. J. Todd of Minnesota
Speaks on True Value of
Community Social Service.
At the annual meeting of the Ne
braska Humane society, held last
night at the First Presbvterian
church, the following officers were
re-elected for the ensuing year:
J. E. Davidson, president; H. S.
Mann, vice president: Howard Ken
nedy, counsel; M. A. Hall, vice pres
ident; Welcome W. Bradley, secre
tary; Ezra Millard, treasurer. J. H.
Bevcridge and F. S. Martin were
added to the list of trustees.
Reports read by Mr. Bradlev.
Miss Lida Wilson, chairman of the
women's auxiliary, and Miss Guenn
Godard of the children's, aid divi
sion indicated that the last year has
been the most successful in the his
tory of this society.
Dr. Todd Talks.
More than ISO members of the
society attended a dinner in the
church. President Davidson of the
society presided. Following the
dinner and business meeting, Dr.
A. J. Todd of the sociological de
partment of the University of Min
nesota delivered an interesting and
instructive talk on the true values
of community social service.
"Social work is doing for other
people what they cannot do for
themselves," said Dr. Todd. "It
does not consist merely of handing
out charity, but rather an organized
and persistent effort to alleviate
misery in a community and also an
effort to eliminate the root and
branch of misery. Real social serv
ice means the enhancement of the
life and happiness of every indi
vidual of a community."
Addresses Business Men.
"Although it might hurt the van
ity of men and the sale of clothing,
I would be glad to see the men of
America adopt a uniform mode of
dress," declared Dr. A. J. Todd,
speaking at the public affairs lunch
eon at the Chamber of Commerct
yesterday.
Dr. Todd, formerly head of the
department of sociology at the Uni
versity of Minnesota, and now head
of the bureau of industrial relations
of the Kuppenheimer company of
Chicago, explained what he termed
the "peace treaty in garment indus
try," and the terms of settlement
with unions reached by the indus
trial relations bureau.
Through the work of the bureau
an "oasis of comparative peace had
been reached in a desert of war,"
he said.
