caused their arrest at Pearl street
and Broadway. He called Traffic
Officer . Robert Weimar, who took
them into custody. Mrs. King rc
' fused to go to the police station, and
during the argument her companion
ran into the Fanger Woman's Tog

sen, Bluffs aviator, to help him, and
the birdman brought Anna Necht

in which they dropped the coat.
They pleaded guilty to the charge
in district court and were lined $500
each and sentenced to. five years in

Prison sentence in each case was
suspended, however, and the women
were paroled to their husbandvS. Mrs.

was Hazel Reed at the time of their
arrest. Mrs. Wincbell is now in
Chicago with her husband, accordr

Intruder Escapes With Loot
After Overpowering Mrs.
Lehman and Locking
Her in Closet.
Rev. C. W. Savidge, Omaha's' mar
rying parson, reached the &oal of
his ambition at 4:30 yesterday after
noon, when he married his 5,000th
couple.
Vinnie Towle. 10. daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Louis Towle of Benson,
was the bride. Walter Rasmussen, 24,
sen of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Rasmus
sen, also of Benson, was the groom.
The ceremony was performed at
Rev. Mr. Savidge's home.
Rev. Mr. Savidge performed his
first marriage ceremony October 15,
1R?9, in Richfield, Meeker county,
Minn. A year or so ago he declared
he would be satisfied when he had
nnrried 5,000 couples.
But last Might- lie performed an
other ceremony, which brought the
total to 5,001, and now the m ii rjing
parson says he'll keep on marrying
'em, even though he has passed the
5,000 mark.
"Some of these days I'm going to
get myself some timber land near
Seattle, Wash., where my son lives,"
said the minister last night. ' I want
the land on the mountainside, where
the birds sing. I'm going to build a
log cabin there. The place must be
near enough to the ocean so I can
fish and hunt for clams. No, I don't
think I'll leave Omaha permanently,
but I plan to spend part of my time
there, at least.
"If the time should drag I might
be able to find a few couples to
marry, too, How docs it scund to
you?"

Airs. Ferdinand A. Lehman, 55,
2705 South Nineteenth street, was fi
lially overcome by an intruder with
whom she battled furiously for sev
eral minutes, and locked in a clothes
closet, while her husband, uncon
scious of her danger, busied himscf
painting his garage in the back yard.
The struggle occurred Tuesday aft
ernoon Mrs. Lehman, who is hard of hear
ing, did not discover the presence of
the prowler until he entered her bed
room, where she was seated.
"What do you want?" she inquired.
"I want money," replied the prow
ler. 1 Mrs. Lehman believed the man had
been sent to her by her husband to
be paid for hauling rubbish away,
and replied:
"All right, c6nie downstairs with
me and I'll give it to you."
"No you don't," replied the man,
and as she attempted to pass he
struck her in the mouth. A tussle fol
lowed. The man seized her by the
throat and she was unable to scream.
She fought desperately, but the man
finally dragged her into a clothes
closet and locked the door.
Before fleeing the man picked up
two watches and a pocket knife. Mr.
Lehman heard a pounding in the
house and found his wife in the
clothes closet a short time later. She
was badly bruised but not seriously
injured, it is, believed. She was able
to give police a good description of
her assailiant.
Over 1 00 Motorists
Break Light Laws
More than 100 violations of auto
light regulations were noted Tuesday
night by a squad of volunteer po
lice, headed by J. H. Shinn, and sta
tioned at Twenty-second and Forty
eighth and Farnam streets. D. T.
Miller, L. A. Williams, H. G. Marsh
and R. E. Paulson were on duty.
The flashlight signal code, used by
the volunteer traffic "cops," con
tinued to befuddle drivers.
"How do- you know?" inquired
one frate driver when notified, be
fore his car had passed the officer,
that "his tail light was out."

Owner of Woodrow Cafe
Cruel to Wife, She Says
Theresa Hassell filed suit- against
John Dick Hassell, owner of the
Woodrow cafe, for divorce in dis
trict court yesterday, alleging ex
treme cruelty. They were married in
Chicago in 1917. She asks for cus
tody of their two children. She
says she will set forth in detail his
alleged cruelty if called on to do so.
The Ui.ion Pacific system pursu
ant to its policy of developing its
agricultural territory, has announced
homseckers' excursion fares from St.
Joseph, Leavenworth, Kansas City
and Omaha to Union Pacific system
destinations in Idaho, Utah and Mon
tana, and in Washington and'Ore
gon cast of the Cascade mountains.
Tickets will be on sale the first and
third Tuesday of each month, April
to October, inclusive. 1921, and will
be good for 21 days from date of
sales, stopovers being; permitted in
Utah, Idaho and west.
The basis for these round-trip
tickets varies from about fare and
one-half to the nearer points, to
slightly over one fare to the more
distant destinations. While the
homeseekers fares apply to all Union
Pacific system points in the territory
covered, following figures are in
dicative of the .whole: Salt 'Lake
City and Ogden," Utah. $53; Poca
tello, Blackfoot and Idaho Falls,
Idaho, $53; Butte, Mont., $53;
American Falls, Twin Falls, Boise
and Nanpa, Idaho, $55; Huntington,
Baker, La Grande and Pendleton,
Ure., $W; walla Walla. Dayton, Col
fax, Spokane, Washington, $60;
Yakima, Wash., $62.50; Heppner,
Arlington, Condon, Shanike, Sher
man and Bend, Ore., $62.50.
It is expected the restoration of
these cheap excursion tares for
homeseekers will stimulate the move
ments from cities of the east to the
agricultural regions lying brjwcon
the Rocky mountains and Cascade
mountains.
