years of married life, Mr.-and Mrs.
W. F. Maloney. 1620 Binney street,
well known residents in Kountze
district, leave today on an extend
ed tour of the sduth and Pacific
coast states.
Last Friday was a red letter day
in their lite, Mr. Maloney. declares,
in that his married life has passed
without a single cross word in their
home.
, Is Proud of Record.
"I consider it a triumph in do
mestic relationship." he asserted.
"And now, don't my pal and T
really deserve a change in happi
ness?" he asks. "We thought so,
and it'll be a wonderful sight-seeing
trip."
Mr. Maloney is a topical "man-about-town."
Hardly a person who
has lived in Omaha? for any num
ber of years forgets "Billy" Ma
loney of North Omaha.
To the young bloods of this age
Mr. Maloney gives this advice:
"Marry. But be sure you meet ths
right pal. ,
When ; asked .whether he would
choose a single or a married lite
if he had it to live ove again, thia
sage of matrimony declared:
Would Marry "Same Girl."
"I'd marry the same girl if I
could induce her to have faith in
the same old air castles."
Whereupon the reporter took
courage tp ask: .
"Mr. Maloney, do couples live
happily together for such a Ions
period, in your estimation?" .
".It can be done," was the reply.
"Just asfc any couple ' that has
looked at each, other , for that
Itngth of time, then if you do not
believe me I'll tell another:"
"Then xpur advice is to marry?"
He Waited Too Long.
"Most assuredly My only regret
is that I waited until I was of age
before I became a benedict."

DEPICT SAILING
OF MAYFLOWER
IN PIG PAGEANT
Historically Correct Reproduc
tion of Leave Taking of
Pilgrims Staged at Ter
centenary Celebration.
Southampton, England, July 24.
Scenes attending the departure 300
years ago of that little band of ad
venturers known to history as the
Pilgrim Fathers were re-enacted to
day in a pageant inaugurating a four
days' celebration of the tercentenary
of the sailing of the Mayflower. The
pageant was preceded by a lunch
eon tendered by the lord mayor.
There were 400 guests at the lunch
eon, including prominent persons in
American and British official life
and the heads of various Anglo
American societies.
By staging today's pageant, which
is entitled "John Alden's Choice," at
the ancient quay-side near the west
gate, through which the Pilgrims
went because no roadway existed,
and garbing the performers in puri
tanical dress, aH attempt was made
to have the reproduction as his
torically faithful as possible. The
pate has remained throughout the
intervening centuries as a veritable
monument to the Pilgrim voy-
agers.
Outstanding events of American
history, including the Boston tea
party, Lincoln making his address
at Gettysburg and American inter
vention in the recent world war
were depicted in the pageant.
42 1-2 bushels. Mr. Blair holds the
demonstration in the interest of bet
ter farming. The plowing contest is
free to any tractors, regardless of
where built or sold, and always
draws big crowds. This "year's con
test will be held August 7.

CLOSING DAY OF
COMMUNIST CASE
Former Seattle Mayor Led
From Room to End Clash
With Attorney.
Chicago, July 24. The taking of
testimony in the trial on 20 mem
bers of the comrnunist labor party
ended Friday in flares of feeling
from attorneys and witnesses. At
one point Ole Hanson, former
mayor of Seattle, was led from the
courtroom to end a controversy be
tween him and Clarence Darrow,
of counsel for the defense.
One of the keenest legal tilts of
the hearing was brought on by the
defense's motion to strike out all
testimony about the general strike
in Seattle on the ground that it was
not an effort to overthrow the gov
ernment, which is charged against
the defendants. The motion was
overruled.
Mr. Hanson, who was recalled
by the state in rebuttal, recounted
a visit to his office in January be
fore the Seattle strike by Duncaa
The labor leader presented him with
a copy of "Soviets at Work," by
Nicolai Lenine, he testified.
"I said, 'what are you trying to
do?' Duncan said, 'read the book,
and it will show you what we are
trying to do.' I answered him that
the farther organized labor kept
away from Russian methods the
better."
Duncan was promptly recalled
and was asked by the defense if he
had heard Hanson's testimony. He
replied:
"Yes. It is i lie out of whole
cloth."
The prosecution objected and
Judge Hebel warned Duncan that
it was an unnecessary characteri
zation. Charles D. Davis, exalted ruler
of the Elks lodge of Seattle, tes
tified that 250 members of his lodge
served as special policemen dur
ing the shipyards and, mass cction
in Seattle,
Another defense witness was
Mrs. Viola G. Graham, a Seattle
club woman, who said Seattle streets
were peaceful during the strike.
Situation at Dromore, in
Ireland, Grows Serious
Dromore. County Down. Ireland.
July 24. The situation here as
sumed an ugly aspect last evening,
following the disorders Thursday
night in which the house of a prom
inent Sinn-Feiner was attacked and
burned, and sh ips belonging to na
tionalists were in turn attacked and
badly damaged, military reinfoice
merits finally beine sent to aid the
police. The more serious develop
ment occurred when a crowd burned
the Catholic club to the ground and
badly wrecked the parochial hous.
When the police arrived on th
scene of this outrage they were un
txble to disperse ti e crowd by ordi
nary means and used their pistol,
one man being shot dead. s
