: - bcries in Laundry and
: Oil Station. "
afes belonging to the Truax
Laundry, 1518 Cass street, and the
L.: y. Nicholas Oil company sub
station at Seventeenth and Daven
port streets were Mown by yegg
men, Wednesday night. The cracks
Jiian escaped with loot totalling
$5,135.17. As identical tactics were
used at each' place city detectives
believe the same rncn did both jobs.
N. E. Truax, when he opened his
office yesterday morning, found the
safe, weighing 1,500 pounds, in the
middle of the front office floor. It
had been bundled in wet clothing.
The floor had been blown from the
hinges. A hole Jiad been bored in
the bottom of the safe and nitro
glycerine used to force the door. A
mrcstate bond worth $5,000 and
S50 were gone. A family living on
the second floor of the laundry was
not disturbed by the explosion.
Laundry soap and wet tewels were
used at the oil station to swath the
500-pound safe there. After drilling
a-Bole in the bottom of the safe, the
yeggs inserted nitro-glycerine and
the explosion opened the door. The
robbers obtained $87.17.
NeBill May Ruin ; v
f Marriage Business
Proposed legislation which pro
vides that applications for, marriage
HHlcenses must be advertised 10 days,
before the license is, issued may
' wreak havot with ihe rnarriage busi
ness in Omaha, according to Her
bert (Uipid) tubbendorf. marriage
license clerk at the court house.
"This won't do at all," he said,
"Dont get the idea people are going
toT sit arouiid 10 days waiting to see
whether, they are. to get their license
or not. When a couple decides to get
married t,hey waat to marry at once.
Many couples like to get married
without fear of their friends knowing
it. This new law would'spoil that;
''It would make a big difference
ia the marriage' business in Omaha,
for half the persons getting licenses,
in Douglas county and who are mar
ried in Omaha come from out-staie,"

sacked the house, thrown x the con
tents of bureau drawers and dresser
over the floor and had escaped with
valuables worth $500.
. Now. Mrs. Hardy is afraid to re
main in her home because two keys
to the place were included irijjhe loot
taken by the robbers. ' . '
