POLITE THIEVES
GET $6,000 HAUL
OF FINEJEWELS
One Is Heard to Call the
Ofher "Slim" Enter
: .. House In Early
Morning.,
Two polite burglars who have
baffled Omaha police during the
past week, by their peculiar antics
in holding up victims in their homes,
made a Haul 0f $6,000 worth , of
jewelry at the home of C. R.x Jew
ell, 315 South Fifty-seventh street,
at 6 yesterday morning, according
to a report made to police. ,
A solitaire diamond, three and
one-half carats and set in a gold
ring, was taken by the masked burg
lars. If was Mrs. Jewell's engage
ment ring. An eight-grain pearl
surrounded by small diamonds, set
in gold was also taken, besides-a
platinum bar pin, valued at $300.
- Accprding to a description of the
robbers, police believe them to be
the same pair that held up Mr. and
Mrs. J; H. Powers, in their apart
ment at the El Beudor, Eighteenth
and.. Dodge streets,' early Monday
morning.
Are "Tall and Short."
A short heavy set man issued or
ders to his accomplice, a tall, slen
der and sallow youth.
Both men entered the house
through a pantry window. A
"jimmy" had been used to cut tfbout
the latch.
While "Slim," as Mrs. Jewell
heard the short burglar call his ac
complices remained downstairs, the
leader of the pair ransacked a vacant
bed room upstairs. It was in this
room that the burglar obtained the
three valuable articles of jewelry,
Mrs. Jewell said.
The heavy set robber then entered
the room occupied by Mr. and Mrs.
Jewell. Flashing a light in Mr.
Jewell' face, he commanded, "Wake
up and throw 'em up." ,
. Looks Into Revolver."
Mrs. Jewell also awoke, only to
peer into the muzzle of a gun in the
hands of the burglar.
"Come on up, Slim, I've got 'em
covered," the burglar ordered his ac
complice, who was downstairs.
While a gun was being held on
Mr. and r- Jewell, the slender
outlaw went through Mr. Jewell's
trousers at the command of his part
ner. He missed $22 which was con
cealed in a watch pocket
Before leaving the house the
short burglar took an overcoat and
bat belonging to Mr. Jewell and left
a worn coat in its place. ,

WIFE NUMBER 3
SAYS ROMANCE
WAS SHORT LIVED
Omaha - Stenographer Declares
Her Husband Deceived"
NX Her.
The romance of Margaret Fillen
worth was shattered a week after
her marriage to Harry McKay, she
says in a petition filed in district
court yesterday for annulment of
her marriage to him, alleging again
the truth of the lyrical proverb that
"Men were deceivers ever.
Margaret was a stenographer with
a local music house when Harry
tame along and wooed and won
her. ,. '
Thetr honeymoon was only three
months ago. They were married
August 1, 1919, by Rev. Harry
Noble-Wilson, in St. Paul, Minn.
Harry toid his bride that he had
already led two other girls to the
altar but that his first wife had died
and that he had been divorced from
his second, Margaret alleges.
m than nrr taavinff the hoUSC
one afternoon about a week after
thexwedding m company witn some
of her husband's friends the wife
nf nm n( hm remarked to her.
she says, as women will, I hope
you won t have any trouoie De
cause of your marriage, to Mr. Mc
Kay.": " .
This "hope" was destined to be
shattered, because Margaret soon
found out, she alleges, that her hus-i
hand Viarl tint hrrn divorced from
wife No. 2 before he was married
to wife No. 3.
She alleges that he is now the
legal husband of. Edna M. McKay,
his second bride.
Mrs. 1 McKay No.3, therefore,
asks the conrt to annul. her mar
riage. .
She says Mr. McKay earns from
$200 to $250, and asks the court to
pay her $100 a month alimony.
