His journey Friday from Chica
go to Omaha, carrying 200 pounds
of first-class mail, was his first long
distance flight as a member of
Uncle Sam's corps of winged mail
carriers, Pilot William DeWald
confided here yesterday.
"Naturally I'm glad it was a suc
cessful trip," he said. "I like the ,
job and expect to be a regular air
traveler between Omaha and Chica
go when regular l.iail service is es
tablished between the two cities
within a week or so. We might

Murder of Chicago
Labor Leader Shows
Up Dirty Politics
IChlraco Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, April 24. The murder
of Edward J. Coleman, labor leader
I and politician, has uncovered a
slimy display of crime, dirty politics
I and the murderous undercurrents of
the city's life.
Paddy the Bear Kyan, former
saloonkeeper, and George Yogel, al-
' leged pickpocket, were arrested in
connection with the slaying of Cole
man. In his (lying statement Cole
man said he had been "framed" by
Michael Norris and John Haley,
rival labor leaders.
Norris and Haley arc botli in cus
tody. Feter Muller, another labor
leader, is under arrest and search is
bring made for a man prominent in
labor circles, known as "Squint the
Rat." Coleman had been very active
in putting out of business a gang of
gamblers and turning the privileges
over to another set who were right
politically. It was also said he had
been "protecting" a notorious hotel.
Coleman out a few years ago was
driving a city dump cart. From that
position he graduated into union
labor ranks by various stages until
lie became the czar of 40,000 team
sters and his activities extended in
many directions. It is estimated he
leaves an estate exceeding $500,000.
Federal Authorities
To Help Investigate
"Modern Bluebeard"
Los Angeles, Cal., April 24. Fed
eral authorities were scheduled to
take a hand in the investigation of
James R. Huirt, alleged multi-bigamist
with C view to' establishing
his possible violation of the Mann
white slave act. The newest charges
are added to those of bigamy, mur
der, swindle and robberies of vari
ous degrees.
Officers who arc working on the
case were considerably puzzled over
the attitude taken by Huirt in face
of the many charges he is facing.
Two days ago' the prisoner, man
acled to an iron cot in the county
hospital expressed a desire to die
and thereby substantiate the officers'
theory that he recognized his guilt.
Friday, however, Huirt told attaches
at the hospital he wanted to live and
would disprove all accusations.
He has repeatedly claimed that
'Nina Lee -Dcloney, one of his al
leged wives who are believed to
have met with foul play, is in Kansas
City and he intimates that he knows
the whereabouts of other women
about whom the police have ques
tioned him. I
i tnink under the circumstances it
was a satisfactory first trip."
Flight in Six Hours.
Pilot beWald covered the Chicago
Omaha route Friday in flying
time of six hours and 30 minutes.
He was accompanied on the trip by
Pilot W. J. Smith, who brought'
mail to Omaha two months ago in
the first test flight over the Chicago
Omaha air trail. T. J. McCandlcss,
director of the Omaha-Chicago air
mail division, was a passenger in
Smith's plane.
Pilot DeWald explains that a
shortage of pilots is one of the con
ditions delaying establishing of reg
ular service on the Omaha division.
"The work should not be regarded
as extra hazardous, but it requires
considerable knowledge ' of flying
and there seems to be a decided
shortage of trained fliers," he said.
DeWald served a year and a half
in France as a member of the 141st
Pursuit squadron. He said he had
done very little flying since return
ing to this country, until two weeks
ago. when he went to Washington,
D. C.'from his home in New York

Bronzed Six-Footer.
There's no chance ,he says, of his
following in the footsteps of Pilot
Smith, whose marriage to an
Omaha girl was announced a few
weeks after his first, aerial trip here.
However, he's a bronzed six-footer,
with one of those mustaches with
the twisted French points. A mod
est sort, too, more interested in
talking about his work than of him
self. The only disadvantage of import
ance encountered over the Omaha
Chicago route,, DeWald points out,
is the necessary 19 minutes of flying
over Chicago to reach the landing
field there.
"There usually is fog that pre
vents the flier from taking ajiy great
altitude, so most of the time there's
the chance of his being compelled to
try to land in the heart of Chicago
if his engine happens to quit on
him," he explains.
Massachusetts and Many
Towns Adopt Daylight Saving
Boston, April 24. Massachusetts
and numerous cities in other New
England states will move time pieces

scheduled for hearing today.

towns will change time tomorrow.
In Maine, Portland, Lewiston,
T.angor and smaller towns will set
their clocks ahead. Manchester is
the principal point in New Hamp
shire to adopt the plan.

tion with the death of her daughter,

Crazed Lineman Who
Spent Night On Wires
Comes Down to Earth
Mobile, Ala., April 24. After
spending the night on electric, tele
phone and telegraph wires at the
intersection of two of the principal
streets in the downtown section,
Charles Sanders, a lineman, de
scended safely early today into the
arms of waiting policemen who had
pleaded with him for 14 hours to
forsake his perilous perch.
The officers said Sanders was
crazed with narcotics of which he
had partaken at intervals while in
the air. He told the police that he
believed the crowds which had
gathered to watch him were bent on
lynching him.
Sanders is well known here. Some
years ago when several men were
buried tinder a falling wall during
a theater fire he was lowered to
the ruins by a rope and rescued all
of the men. He was given a purse
for his bravery.
Sanders was locked up today as
soon as me ponce could nurry nun
away through the crowds.
Court Upholds Course
Of Major Dalrymple
In "Rumbellioh" Case
Chlcairo Tribune-Omaha Bee. leased Wire.
Chicago, April 24. Maj. A. V.
Dalrymple, prohibition enforcement
officer, who retired ingloriously
from his invasion of upper Michigan
in a campaign against the" "rumbel
lion" of Iron River, may still have
the opportunity to laugh last.
The three Salcucci brothers,
against whom Dalrymple proceeded,
but who were protected by Martin
McDonough, prosecuting attorney
at Iron River, have just been con
victed by a jury and -fined heavily
for violating the prohibition laws.
With this conviction as a basis,
the Anti-Saloon league is now urg
ing Attorney General Palmer . to
prosecute Martin McDonough, who
appears to be the dominating spirit
in Iron River, and who has risen to
the dizzy heights of heroism in the
eyes of the "wets" since his rebuff
of Dalrymple and other prohibition
agents. The action of the Michigan
courts, it is pointed out, sustains the
course of Major Dalrymple.
Fire Loss in United States
In 1919 Totals $325,000,000
Chicago, April 24. Fife losses in
the United States in 1919 totaled
$325,000,000, John G. Gamber, presi
dent ot tne t-ire Marshals Associa

tensive campaign of education
against fire losses will be conducted
this year, Mr. Gamber said.

brought from each of the 48 states.
Demonstrates Cattle Feeding
In Nebraska Is Unprofitable
That cattle feeding. in Nebraska
is 'an unprofitable business at the
present time was demonstrated at a
meeting at the state university farm
yeserday, H. F. Mcintosh, manager
of the agricultural bureau of the
Omaha Chamber of Commerce, said
yesterday.
The meeting was held for the pur
pose of considering figures com
piled during a cattle feeding experi
ment that lasted 160 days. Totals
reported from the meeting showed
a loss of nearly $35 per head. This
amount would be somewhat larger
when figured for the average farm
er, Mr. Mcintosh said, because the
equipment and housing facilities at
the state farm are better than average.

Hiram Johnson Sweeps
Montana On Face of
Incomplete Returns
Butte, April 24. Senator Hiram
Johnson of California had a wide
margin over his opponents for the
republican presidential nomination
in Montana's primary held yester
day, according to incomplete but
widely scattered returns available
this, morning.
Nearly 200 precincts of the 1,500
in Montana gae the Californian
6,238 votes on returns compiled up
to. an early hour today: Maj. Gen.
Leonard Wood, 1,604; Herbert
Hoover, 1.2S9; Governor Lowden of
Illinois, 1,139, and Senator Warren
G. Harding, fewer than 500. In the
absence of a democratic candidate
for president votes were written in
for William G- McAdoo, President
Wilson, Eugene V. Debs, Herbert
Hoover, Governor Edwards, Wil
liam J. Bryan and others.
Returns for delegates to the na
tional conventions came in so slow
ly that political "dopesters" said it j
would "be a week" before the out
come of those contests would be
known definitely. United States
Senator T. J. Walsh, however, was
leading in the race for delegate to
the democratic convention. Returns
were too few to show that either the
"regular" republican delegate can
didates or the eight men put for
ward by O. H. P. Shelley of Helena
and repudiated ,hy the republican
state central committee had a dis--tinct
advantage.
Says Over 50 Per Cent
Of Divorces Are Based
On Trumped-Up Charges

secretary of the international com
mittee on marriage, and divorce, de
clared before the senate judiciary
committee.
Appearing in support of a joint
resolution proposing a constitutional
amendment providing for uniform
federal marriage and divorce laws,
Mr. Moody charged that the news
papers refused to print articles deal
ing with the seriousness of the di
vorce situation because many of the
men connected with the newspapers
"are of that kind."

ried over the absence of suspender
buttons on his new uniform trou
sers, in place ot buttons he used
unsafe safety pins.
Un May 1, sergeant ferns be
gins a vacation ot six months, the
first he will have had for 20 years.
He requested the vacation on ac
count of declining health.
Though Sergeant rerns admits
that the vacation is no particular
sequence of the absence of buttons
from his trousers on inspection day,
he confesses he did lose some weight
and stamina from worry over the affair.
Holds Enviable Record.
Sergeant Ferris has an enviable
record in the police department.
Aside from a day or two off duty
occasionally on account of illness,
he has not had a vacation during his
time on the police force.

American Undergoes
Many Hardships to
Escape From Italy
New York Tlmm-rhicaco Tribune Cable.
Copyrleht. 1830.
Paris, April 24. Hugh J. Mc
Birncy of Lake Forest, who will sail
for America on Saturday, has just
arrived in Paris after a strenuous
time getting out of Italy. He brings
authentic information regarding the
strike situation. He reports a com
plete tieup of the railroads, shops
and food supply and restraints on
newspapers of northern Italy on
April 11 and 12.
McBirney, traveling with his wife
and a numerous retinue, was unable
to leave Florence for two days. They
were astonished by the complete
quiet during the strike. There were
no disturbances, but everyone was
uneasy, fearing trouble.
Attorney General
Still Confident of
Victory in Georgia
Washington. April 24. Attorney
General A. Mitchell Talmer, pausing
in his administrative prosecution of
food profiteers and crusade against
the reds for a moment, expresseJ
gratification over the outcome of the
democratic primary in Georgia,
where he won a plurality of dele
gates to the state convention.
The attorney general declared that
tumors of a coalition in the state
convention of the Watson and Hoke
Smith forces, which opposed him,
were groundless and predicted that
he would have a majority of the
delegates from Georgia for Ins nomi
nation for president at San Fran
cisco. Defeat of Senator James A. Reed
for delegatc-at-large from Missouri
gave the administration leaders
comfort, but anti-administration
leaders insist that the Wilson ad
herents are crowing too soon, as the
internal bitterness aroused in the
democratic camp will almost cer
tainly result in turning Missouri into
the republican column at the fall
election.
FORTY BROTHERS
NAMED COWAN
FOUND MISSING
Court Clerk Buried in Letters
Received From Aspirants to
$2,000,000- Estate.
No less than 40 men by the name
of Cowan have been reported "miss
ing" in letters to the Douglas coun
ty court since a mysterious stranger
called there, four weeks ago in
search for heirs of the late William
Cowan, who died two years ago in
New York, leaving an estate worth
$2,000,000.
Notice of the appearance of the
mysterious stranger here was re
corded in the papers. Chief Clerk
Clyde Sundhlad of the conn ly court
has received 40 letters.
"They all have missing brothers,"
said Mr. Sundblad. "It's perfectly
astonishing what a tendency there is
among "brothers' of this name to
wander off and become 'missing.'
But, so f;ir, none of them lias of
fered proof or established any claim
giving them even a remote chance at
the $2,000,000 estate."

A Furnace That Experience Built
Unless the combustion chamber is high, wide and
roomy, and unless the outlet from the combustion
chamber to the radiator (shown hy arrow heads in
cut) is of large diameter, combustion is choked at
this point and the radiator becomes valuable only
as a passageway for the -escape of gas and smoke
(valuable heat unita,) up the chimney.
A wide outlet at this point means that the com
bustion may continue almost entirely around the
radiator at least far enough to consume the wast
ing gases thus prolonging the life of the fuel and
making prime heating surface of the entire radiator.
This is JUST ONE of the details that EXPERI
ENCE HAS TAUGHT US the value of, and JUST
ONE of the reasons for our record of MORE THAN
9912 of efficiency in OVER 200 INSTALLA
TIONS made last year.
