Balloonist To
Marry Sister
Of His Fiancee
Betrothal Is Outgrowth of His
Falling . in Love With
Poster Girl Painted
by Christy.
New York, July 18. The girl in
the picture has stepped out of the
story book into real life romance.
And the hero found she jvas the
sister of his fiancee.
It has happened to Lieut. Louis
F. Kloor and Miss Alexandra
Flowerton and Miss i Consuelo
Flowerton, and the world has the
word of these three and , of the
mother of the girls that what at first
thought, and perhaps even at second
and third, seems a fautasy of an im
aginative and ambitious pen, is the
reality. ; "
Only a few days ago, at Far Rock
away, Mrs. Maud Flowerton had an
- nounced that Lieutenant Kloor and
Alexandra Flowerton had agreed
that a naval officer's pay is incom
natible with the standards to which
the girl has been accustomed. Os
tensibly that was a sane reason for
sundering their engagement, But
others knew the truth and today it
was learned that in Miss Consuelo
Flowerton, Kloor found the vision
he has pursued and that they are to
be married.
I ; Was Lost for Days.
Last winter Lieutenant Kloor was
leader of a group of three balloonists
who engaged the anxious interest of
the world when- they started . from
Rockaway and -were .lost for days,
turning up eventually in Canada's
frozen northland, whence they
emerged after days of almost killing
privation. " '.' .', -
A letter from Kloor to Alexandra
Flowerton gave the world the' first
detalied story of their hardships and
heroic struggles. It s. was later an
nounced that Kloor"; and Alexandra
Flowerton were engaged u be
married. Then Consuelo Flowerton,
18. vouneer sister of Alexandra,
came back from Los Angeles,, where
she had been appearing .in the
movies. And 'now the story goes
back two years.
Girl of the Poster.
Lieutenant Kloor one day visited
an officer aboard the warship Ten
nessee in theHudson. As he entered
his friend's cabin Kloor's youthful
fye was arrested on a poster on the
wall. He leaped forward for closer
scrutiny and his heart was lost. It
was a war poster by Howard
Chandler Christy and it portrayed a
girl of vivacious, appealing youth,
lresh in her Teauty. -Kloor's long
ing gaze brought a smile to the. lips
ot his mena. ine laner, nnauv buic
to wrest : Kloor back to : coherent
speech, admonished with a.laugh:
"If! no use Lou;' Everybody's
stuck "en her.' - Bute's only a pic
ture, only a dream. Don't let your
self no that wav."
But Kloor framed a print of the
jposr J9r his room.
TTw Vnonths went by and time in
a measure assuaged the yearnings of
his heart. He became acquainted
with Alexandra Flowerton She-was
a charming girl and, somehow;' was
strongly remindful of the girl of the
poster. Of course, Kloor never told
her that, for that is nbfe the method
of the wooing swain. In course of
time, the poster became a 'hopeless
memory and Kloor devoted his
ardor to the reality, Alexandra.
Their engagement eventually be
came known.
To Appear in Follies.
One day, a short while ago his
fiancee remarked casually W Kloor:
"My sister, Consuelo, is coming
home from California soon. She js
going to appear inthe- 'Ziegfeld
Follies. I know you'll1 like her lots.
Kloor visited the Flowerton home
that evening to calfonA' Alexandra
and met the sister.' v; A amazing
scene transpired. Kloor, ai he ' was.
presented, started. He; stepped for
ward and stopped,, gapping.' Hfe
mumbled in his effort at speech and
finally managed to blUrt put a ouery
as to whether she :Vas "the original
of that poster. Reddening 'under
Kloor's gaze, Consuelo replied she
was. ; r'';;'-r.''.'..;:- i :

It wasn't a very xomposedr group
that sat that night it the Flowerton
parlor. And it wasn't a smooth, ro
mance any longer-hat manitained
between Kloor and; Alexandra. His
attentions to Consuelo-he.- could not

eether. the engagement between
Kloor and Alexandra was broken,
and he and Consuelo became en

had been decided,'. was inadequate.
But Consuelo doesn't thtnic so. sne
is content to live with Kloor on his
pay and to forsake the stage and go
whither duty may send him. Kloor

Owen Moore Marries
Former Follies Girl
Mr. and Mrs.
New York, Jul 18. Owen Moore

himself another wife.
Saturday, Owen slipped down to
Greenwich, Conn., the Yankee

and cherish" Miss Kathryn Perry,
"until death do them part."
Owen will be remembered as the
Obliging husband who kept his lips
sealed . while one "Mary Moore,"
alias "America's sweetheart" es
tablished a brief residence "at Minden,
Nev and sued for divorce.
A short time later, 'this same

Longworth of Ohio, Green of Iowa,
Copley' of Illinois, Hawley of Ore
gon, Treadway of Massachusetts,
and Young of North Dakota. Speak
er Gillett, Representative Burton of
Ohio and Representative Mann of
Illinois also voted against duties.
In proposing a duty on long staple
cotton, the republican" leaders aban
doned the plan to provide a duty on
all kinds of cotton. The criticism
the proposed compensatory duties on
dlTctnds of cotton. The criticism of
the lack of any, demand for, a duty
on : short - staple cotton, caused, the
change in plan. Inasmuch as pro
ducers of long staple cotton are the
only ones who ask for protection, it
was considered best to limit the duty
to that variety.
.,. The emergency tariffi act, now in
effect, contains a duty of 7 cents per
bound, but in the Fordney bill, all
k?nds of raw cotton 'are left-on -the
freec list. ;
Leader Favors Duty.
' Republican Leader Mondell, Rep
resentative Fordney and other lead
ing republicans spoke for the duty
on long staple cotton. ',
The house got into a wrangle
when Representative .Longworth at
tempted to offer an amendment from
the ways and means committee in
creasing the duty on citric acid from
10 to 12 cents a pound. Representa
tive Gardner of Texas, democrat,
made the point, of .order that the
amendment was not in order inas
much as no meeting of the full ways
and means committee, including mi
nority members, had been held to
consider it.
. Representative Campbell of Kan
sas, who was in the chair, sustained
"the point of order. Chairman Ford
ney called a meeting of the ways
and means for later in .the day at
which the various amendments pre
viously approved by the republican
members were taken up formally. It
was stated that these amendments
total about 200. -Most of them are
of a technical nature.
Tomorrow the house will consider
an amendment restoring asphalt to
the free list and also will take up the
committee amendments.

The little daughter of Bert Ammer-
man of . Scotia -was run oyer of a
largetruck and killed;
Owen Moore.
At the time of the Fairbanks wed
ding, .Owen was quoted extensively
in the vein, "I still love Mary and
always shall, and attributed his
marital typhoon to the old fashioned
cause, too much mother-in-law.
And now comes forth, this same,
or perhaps a different Owen, plight
ing his troth with pretty Kathryn
Perry.
Kathryn is 19. She used to be a
model. Then she went in for the
"Follies" and saw her name in elec
tric lights. These she spurned to
immortalize her face arid figure on
the silver sheet and soon became
leading woman to the noted Owen
Moore in his recent pictures.
sThe rest is easy two hearts that
beat as one, and the mystic words
at the altar.

Investigate All Hoboes. '
Grand Island, Neb., July 18,
(Special Telegram.) Acting on a tip
received from Columbus, the sheriff
and police officers have investigated
all hoboes coming in on trains here
during the past 24 hours.
Out of SO examined, three were
found to be I. W. W. The major
portion of the gang, headed by one
of the I. W. W., was at one time
threatening the other two I. W. W.,
alleging they had stolen a new pair
of shoes from an Aid man of their
number. Columbus officials took the
two back to. Columbus for trial.
Railroad officers have been givng
all itinerants a careful investigation
for some weeks. One officer reports
that out of 161 investigated in recent
weeks he found one I. VV. W. card,
but the owner of it had not, so far
as learned, been molesting anyone.
The heads of both police and sheriff's
department declare that' they " have
had no trouble here, ., ., . . ..

state agent, E. W. Byrn, jr., head of
the federal agents, admitted.
. "There is nothing to fear from
the I. W. W. The organization is on
its last legs," said Byrn. '
He declared Uncle Sam had infor
mation that both the finances and
membership of the national organi
zation is "shot to pieces." Bill Hay
wood's flight to Russia: the forfei
ture of $20,000 in bonds, , largely
raised by subscription? among the
"brotherhood" and the end of war
conditions under, which the I. W. W.
flourished, is responsible for ; the
breakdown in its "morale," the fed
eral 'officer stated. :;. .
Treasury Bankrupt. U
"The ' less attention paid to the I.
W. W. now, the sooner it will die
a natural death," is Byrn's opinion.
He said mosl! of the I. W. W. pub
lications had been suspended for lack
of funds, and memberships are now
obtained by force, chiefly the funds
being used to pay the salaries of agitator-leaders.
"That leaves their treasury bank
rupt," he said.

THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, JULY
France Plans to
Open Booths for
Betting at Races
Pari-Mutuel System Operates
Uneasily in Competation
Witk Wily "Brookies;"
11 Per Cent Tax Debt.
By WILL COOK,
International New Service Staff Corre
spondent. ,
Jaris, July 18. June and July,
thanks to horse racing and the big
races run in these months, are fruit
ful periods for the French govern
ment's coffers, for it is during this
nerinrl that the larcest sums of the
year are played on horses. The state
draws 11 per cent of the money play
ed in the pari-mutuel booths or the
official betting stalls established on
all tracks. It is estimated that on
ordinary week days as much as
3,000,000 francs is played at the
races.
On r1av whpn tbpre. are imnor-
lant races to be decided this amount
runsvery much bigger, as tor m-
chnro nn (IranH Prix Hav when 400.-
ftftf) nenr1 cathpr at Loncchamos to
watch the biggest race in France.
Last year 14,U00,0UU trancs were
played on this race alone and the
dav's takings amounted to more than
20,000,000 francs.
But apart from these otnciai
hnnths there are secret means of
playing races without going on the
tracks, sucn oets are taiten Dy so
called bookmakers all over France
nnrl-tn snmp tnwns such as Paris.
Lyons, Bordeaux and Marseilles, the
money played in this clandestine way
is said to greatly excel the money
olaved on the tracks. Naturally the-
government cannot collect 11 per
cent on these bets. Numerous ar-
ritmnU liav hepn made to run these
"bookies" to earth, but with little
success for the simple reason that in
most cases bets are made on a mu
tual understanding of confidence be
tween the player and the "bookie."
No traces of bets are to be found
except those made in the smaller and
popular bars of the capital, where
sups are exchanged. . .
Has First Lien. ..
Rnnkmalrine' ' Swas abolished in
1005 in favor of the of
ficial pari-motual booths. With these
booths no odds are given out on
horses prior to-the race and the re
turns are only known after the race
and after the deduction of the
state's 11 per cent. The horse who
carries the most money in bets pays
rut the least if he wins. The bar
type of "bookie" pays out the same
sums as the otticial returns, wnereas
the old type "bookie" who still
onprates on the tracks despite police
supervision continues to give odds
before the race.
. The latter will only deal with per-
enne Irrmwn fn him. He will often
give odds of three-to-one against a
horse whereas the pan-mutuei . re
turns wHl show odtf? of three to one
on the same horse.
The bar "bookie" will sometimes
take in large shops and , offices as
well as bars and if he has a prosper
ous auarter to work in he usually
has a large staff of bookkeepers
who, at night when the results are
known, check up his slips. He will
tirt in flip mnrninc atvahont 8 and
go around to factories or shops and
there take the bets ot the employes
and sometimes the employers as
well. Then he will drift into hair
dressers' shops and collect slips and
money from them. From there he
will visit all "his" cafes and bars
and collect more, slips and money.
He "will take any amount from one
france, 25 centimes (25 cents nor
mally) to 2,000 or 3,000 francs.
Bookies Usually Profit.
A tViA nari-miitiiel booth there is
no maximum limit to betting, but
nothine less than 5 francs can be
played. The bookie generally re
fuses to take any tips after 1:30
racing begins at 2:00 and in the
case of outsiders winning he will not
pay out mor.e than 150 francs for ev
ery five invested. . Sometimes he will
go to the race atid by playing him
self try to protect his own money,
but in most cases bookies are usually
satisfied to. wait till the night to jpe
how they have come out. It is rare
that they lose and they more often
finish the day with a net gain of
8,000 to 10,000 francs than otherwise.
Such " clandestine - bets have so
much worried the government that
special laws were passed to deal with
both bookies and players, but they
have yielded little results and the
authorities now are contemplating
the opening of official pari-mutuel
booths in all large cities where one
might play fancied horses and where
the government could . collect its
share of 11 per cent.

Spooks Fail to
Show in Paris
French Actress Holds Exhibi
tion to Convince Parisians
There Are Spirits.
' Paris, July 18. Paris today pos
sesses its theater of spiritualism
where a French actress, Madame de
Ghimel, and her husband are to put
on daily shows. to convince French
people that spiritualism is no longer
a myth.
Before the curtain went up on a
spiritualistic . play . called "Sous
I'Epouvante," a musical concert was
given and by its applause the audi
ence showed it evidently enjoyed the
musical part of the program the
most. There was also a long con
ference on spiritualism by Madame
de Ghimel. which seemed to fail to
convince her hearers of the wonders
of spiritualism, although during the
talk a couple of tables began to move
across the stage, the leg of one of
them coming to rest on the speaker s
foot..
As for the star piece it revealed
nothing. As the curtain went up
one could see a low bed in the far
corner of the stage on which lay the
body of a French soldier killed in
the war.- His widow and child stood
over the bedside; r Nothing-and no
one moved for fully 10, minutes and
then the curtain was lowered again
and Madame Ghimel came forward
to say she had not done .any practi
cal demonstrating, but would give
her audience an opportunity later on
to see how true spiritualism was.

ing on the beach and watching the
waves of Lake Ontario swish upon
the shore, Guy and' Alexander Still
man live very simple and quiet lives

Their- movements are always

is as fair as Alexander is dark,
possessing a very fair skin, clear
blue eyes and his head is covered
with light curls. : "
Claims He's Canadian,
If one asks what he is he say
without hesitation, "I am. 'a ,Ca-
nadian." This is because , he has
spent a great deal of his life in
Canada with bis nurse. Miss Ida
Oliver, of this place. His associa
tions here, where he also 6pent last
summer, has givven him an admiring
affection for this place.
The Stillman children lead very
plain lives. They rise at 9 o'clock
every morning ana retire as tne cur
few is rinizincr at 9 o'clock at night
They eat simple, wholesome food,
spend all day outdoors and - are
healthy and strong as any normal
child.
Guy plays with nearly every child
of his own age on the beach or
shares his little, tea parties, on he
lawn with the mud. Often he is
one of several who meander to the-
the garden, where there are delicious
berries and picks a-plehty. The
owner is very good natured when
such raids are . made.
Have Nice Home.
The nurse's home is located on a
grassy knoll shaded by . lovely old
trees, an ideal spot for a children's
playground.
Here the. little "millionaire babyr"
as he is called, his brother and play
mates play happily as the- days go
by, untroubled by the family disturb
ances. When seen today Guy was, trot
ting up a quiet street with his nurse,
dressed in a cool shantung suit and
talking happily of the cone he would
get when he reached uptown. -: -The
two children have been here

Every day we know of many callers who come
to see you. They never jangle the bell they don't
take up your whole day trying to g;et your attention.

be sure which one will tell something you really
want to know. .
