"They must be taught that this is : i government of individuals and not of groups of aliens. I am optimistic . tnougn to oetieve tnat me great common sense and patriotism of the , American people will solve this ' problem to the satisfaction of pos terity." : An ovation of nearly two minutes was given General Pershing when v he arose to speak.

The death occurred November 10, writes Mrs. Becheray after three months of illness which left hint so weakened he was unable to. with stand attacks of influenza. The sorrow was a heavy one, she re lates, and especially so upon ' the two.cbildren, the daughter Marcelle, having been passionately fond of, her father and apparently unable, to grasp the full significance of his passing away. Referring to her future plans, and the possibility of her return to Omaha, Mrs. Becheray writes: "I long to return to the states, and probably will, but when, arid if forever, it is hard for me now to decide. I feel tha I have passed thrmisli n mnrh unrrow in Berne that I would ylike to go back to where happier days were mine; ana yet, the happy days with my hus band draw me here." Mrs. Becheray requests that no tice of her bereavement be pub lished in The Bee, as it is impos sible for her to write to all her menus, ana acquaintances.

Harriet and Edwin Braithwaite did not seem to have changed much outwardly in the years that had passed since I had seen them. They were a little older, their hair held more of silver than before, there were lines graven in both faces which had not been (here when they sailed away but the last few months had been in the nature of a rest for them, and both showed the beneficial effects of it. Dicky's sister retained her fresh, rather high coloring, while her husband was slowly regaining the flesh which had been his, and which he needed to make his big, powerful frame ap pear other than emaciated. I have always felt unaccountably drawn to this sister of Dicky's, al though the hours when I have seen her can be counted on my fingers. I do not care so much for l lita beth, my mother-in-law's other daughter, with her brood of chil dren ill-bred - cubs,, if the truth must be told over whom the moth er constantly fusses, and to whose whims she tries to make everything else subservient. Elizabeth is an in-, efficient, querulous, "touchy" -woman, while her sister, Harriet, im presses one as simply radiating effi ciency and common sense. She is much the same type ot woman as Lillian Underwood, with the one great exception that Lillian's powers are spent tor her friends and the public good as well as for her family, while Harriet Braithwaite has had but on object before her eyes all the years of her married life, the conserving of the comfort of her famous surgeon-husband. He had not been famous whet! she married him. Mother Graham many times hss recounted the saga of her daughter's devotion and its results In the swift rise of the gifted young surgeon to the dizziest heights of his profession. Phrases from Memory. "Edwin is as helpless as a baby," I have many times heard Mother Graham say. t "He wouldn't know which cravat or waitcoat to put on, or whether he was shaven or had a handkerchief in his pocket if it were not for Harriet. He is as de pendent on her as a baby is on his mother. She has always kept track of his appointments, social and pro fessional, while Ais house hss been run like clock work. I don't know wha,t would become of him if any thing happened to Harriet." ' But as it chanced, I knew what had become of him when "some thing had happened to Harriet." From the lips of Katherine Sonnot I had heard the story of Harriet Braithwaite's illness at the same time her husband was stricken, and of the famous surgeon's growing dependence upon the faithful, effi cient little nurse, whose place in his hospital organization I had been able to secure. "Richard Second" Wins. That Edwin Braithwaite in the stress of that time and the awful conditions surrounding him had nearly lost his head, had been saved from making shipwreck of his hap piness only by Katherine's common sense and his wife's rare vision and comprehension of him, I knew, as 1 did of the jealousy of my brother cousin, Jack Bickett, which had com plicated matters so badly. And al though I knew these things were all comparatively ancient history now, yet I had feminine curiosity enough to study the faces of both my sister-in-law and her husband to ascertain whether all was still well with them. It did not take me long to make up my mind regretfully in the nega tive. There was a haunted look in both pairs of fine eyes that affected me as a strain of mournful music would have done. Outwardly they were the same jovial, affectionate couple as of old, and, indeed, I do not think there was any perceptible change in their relations when thert were no observers of their actions present.- Whatever. barrier was be tween them, and I felt sure there was one, must be an impalpable, elusive sort of thing. One far more hopeless of elimination than if it had been something material. One, perhaps. which they did not themselves realize.- Both husband and wife took the shortest possible cut to my affec tions in their outspoken adoration of the baby. From their actions one would have suooosed it was the first child either of them had ever been Divorce -.Courts Joseph Voss expected to receive some of his support from his wife, Augusta, she alleges in a petition for divorce from him filed in district court She says he started to quar rel with her over money soon after their marriage in 1915. He deserted her, she alleges, April 1, 1919. She asks for the restoration of her maid en name, Stelling. An order restraining James Strand from molesting his wife, Sophy, in their home, 4132 North Fourteenth avenue, was issued by District Judge Day on her request contained in a petition for separate maintenance filed in district court. She says her husband has cursed and struck her and has threatened to beat her up. She asks for custody of their two small children. i t On allegations of desertion di vorces were granted in divorce court by Judge Wakeley to Mary Davis from Evan'Davis and to Josie Gland from George Gland. William Garner was given a di vorce from Viola Garner by Judge Troup in divorce court on grounds of extreme cruelty. Mari Mangu filed suit in district court for a divorce from Florea Mangu, charging that he frequently struck 'her and threatened her life.

The great sur geo would "play horse" by the hour with the baby, steadied by Marion, pulling his grizzled hair and pound ing his broad shoulders, while Jiis wife appeared to count it a distinct privilege to sit and rock my small son until he went to sleep. , "I know it's against all the rules she said one day, "but if you could know what this means to me, Mar garet, you wouldn't object." Her face as she bent over the sleeping child was transfigured with love and something else, longing which I think no one else had ever seen in Harriet Braithwaite's face. All at once the vague haunting look in her face at least was translated for me. She had sacrificed all thought of motherhood in order to make an absolute certainty of the brilliant career of her husband. Had it been worth while? (Continued Tomorrow.) In preparation for their intended marriages to two soldiers stationed at Fort Omaha, Virva Bendon and Marjorie Young, 16 and 17 years old respectively, rooming at l3l North Twenty-fifth street, picked, out $340 worth of silk lingerie and other beautiful attire, comprising their wedding garments Wednesday at va rious downtown department stores, giving alleged worthless checks in payment, ' , , . Both girls were turned over to juvenile authorities yesterday on or der ot Police Judge iutzgerald in C'jtntral police court. The girls were arrested in a room at the Neville hotel, Sixteenth ,,aud Dodge streets, where , they ' were trailed after having passed two al leged worthless checks for $190 at the fashion store,' 111 South Six teenth street. The eirls confessed yesterday to having tendered worth less checks' at the Brandeis store, Burgess-Nash and Benson-Thorne stores in payment forailk lingerie. The girls told Detectives Lahey and Hughcy, who arrested them, that they intended to be married to day to "two soldiers at Fort Omaha." Refuse Soldiers' Names. They refused to divulge the names of their intended husbands. "We can't get them in bad," one of them said. - The Bendon girl said she is known also as Marion Foster. Detectives learned that the Young girl has been using the name of Agnes Shel ley, which name was forged on one of the checks, police say. The girls are charged with forg- efy-, ' - Mrs. Iva Bendon, mother of one of the girls, lives at 1909 Douglas street. She told police her daugh ter ran away from home several weeks ago.
