THE BEE: OMAHA, S SALOO\ ‘MAN PRO\E) ALIBI Charles H. Stilhn Beats Charge of Violating Closing Law. SHOWS HE WAS NOT IN SALOON (i-Saloon ue Loses Its First Cawe in Eight 0’elock O Miller and O'Bri Third Postponement. Froving that he was absent from his of business on the night of Novem- 2, election night, when he was ac- cused by Harry A. Stone of the Anti-8a- loon league of having violated the 8 o'clock law by selling intoxicants, Charles who runs a saloon at 424 South was discharged in police P! ber closing H. Stillers, Thirteenth street, court. Stillers offered evidence to show that on the date in question, he had spent the even- fng at South Omaha that his place of business not open and that not sell intoxicants as alleged In the com- plaint, The case was started by Secretary Saloon league. The prosecution contended that C. A, Giveen and H. T was the first Stone of of the several the Antl- | and whiskey In a room on the second floor’! of the Stillers place on electidn night, al- though beer, only, was named In the com- | plaint, and that it was Stillers who served and recelved payment for the drinks. Of | this latter fact both witnesses produced on behalf of the prosecution were positive. The defense Introduced testimony di- rectly contrary and disproving the peo- ple's witnesses, showing that Stillers had spent the evening in South Omaha with a triend. Judge Crawford concluded the prosecu- tion had falled to establish a violation and Btillers was dismissed. Other Case Put Over, The case against Willian: Miller, charged with a similar offense and set for Friday, was put over until Saturday, whils the cases of Thomas J. O'Brien, proprietor of the Henshaw hotel, and Rome Miller, pro- prietor of the Rome hotel, both charzed with violating the 8 o'clock . closing law, were postponed for the third time unul Wednesday morning. Only two witnesses testified in.behalf of the prosecution in the Stillers case. Giveen testified that he, in company with Hart T. Brass of South Omaha, had visited ths Stillers place at about 9:30 on the night of November 2 and that In a room on the second floor of the bullding had bought beer and whisky. The beer they con.umel while the whisky, the witness stated, thay had taken away for evidence. Brass, ac- cording to Giveen, had paid for the liquor, glving 2 cents for the bottle of beer and a llke amount for the flask of whisky, H. T. Brass, a member of the exccutive board of the Anti-Saloon league, living at 622 North Twenty-fourth street, South Omaha, gave testimony In corroboration of that glven by Giveen with reference to the buying of the liquor. Asked as to the date Brass sald he was not positive It was the night of November 2, only knowing date named on the flask of whiskey, which, he sald, Giveen had written therecon less than ten minutes after it had been bought. Judge Rules Out the Evidence. The prosecution attempted to Introduce evidence to show that liquor had been | bought on the second floor of the Stillers’ place on other occasions, but after a spirited argument between Elmer E. Thomas, counsel for the Anti-Saloon league, and James Kelkenny, who repre- sented Stlllers, the evidence was declared not admissable,' and the prosecution was enjoined to keep the evidence within the complaint as specifying the violating on the second day of November. Stillers, called In his own behalf, denled belug In his place of business or on the second floor of the bullding the night of November 2 between the hours of § and 11 o'clock, and was equally, as positive that | Giveen and Brass had not bought lquor there that night, because of the fact he | had spent that evening with a friend in | South Omaha. Pressed for an explanation Stillers said he had left Omaha about 7:30 in the evening for South Omaha and spent several hours at the home of a friend, Earl J. Blessing, 735 North Twelfth street, leay- ing for home at about 11 o'clock or shortly after. He sald he alone had a key to his saloon or bullding and that neither his bartender nor porter could secure entrance | BEDRIDDEN WITH ECZEMASIK WEEKS Itching, Burning Eruption from Head to Foot—Doctor Gave Her Up Entirely—First Application of Cuticura Brought Reliefand Sleep. s CUTICURA REMEDIES EFFECT PERFECT CURE *“Four years ago I suffered severely with a terrible ocnml“bein‘ & mass of wores from head to feet and for six weeks con- fined to my .

Lebeck is Not Borrowing Trouble Over the New Tax | Expects Public Service Corporations Affected Will Make Proper Returns December 1. Clty Comptroller Lobeck says he has not begun to worry about any action that may or may not be taken by the public service ‘N\rpnrnl!nn that are due to begin paying | the 3 per cent occupation tax on next Wed- | nesday, December 1. “This office will presume that all the | corporations that come under the terms of | the ordinance will obey 1.

But until we get the returns we cannot | say just what method we will follow in proving and verifying them.” The tax began to be effective Ssptember 1, and is payable quarterly.

SAYS ESTELLE This, He Urges, Tiea Hands of Juve-| nile Court—How to Relleve Detention Home. | Judge Estelle, Mogy Bernstein and mem- {bers of the Board of County Commission- ers talked at length Friday afternoon over the problem involved in the filling up too rapidly of the Detention home with de- pendent or delinquent children. Members of the board had read that there |were 140 applications for David Decker |some days ago ana were inclined to believe that some of the children in the home | | might go to some of these people. The dit- | flculties In the way of putting out children were explained by Judge Bstelle, “It is amaszing,” said he, “how people | WIll refuse to care in any way for their children and yet decline to sign a relin- |quishment, and again when they have been |persuaded to sign such relinquishment, turn immediately around and ralse an |awful fuss until the enhildren are restored [to them—anl the previous conditon of neglect.” Judge Estelle cited case after case to give point to his assertion. He also ex- |plained that while he could send destitute [chiidren to the Detention home, the fact that ha could not force people to sign re- linquishments made it extremely alfficpit | to have children taken for -adoption, in which event they must go out of his ac- tive jurisdiction. “Would not a law giving you the power be quite desirable? asked Commissioner Tralnor. “That is another question,” answered Judge Estelle. “What I am dwelling on is the situation as it now is. What Is one to do? These children cannot be turned into the street.” Summing up the trouble, Judge Estells sald: “Neglect of children is the crime of this age. Ry LOW RATES OVER WIDE AREA Co ouri Couuntry, Merely Nebraska. “There seems to be a mistaken imprea- sion about the low rates announced for the National Corn exposition,” says Divi- sion Passenger Agent Pentacost of the Rock Island lines. “Our road and the Bur- lington route have announced a special rate of 13§ cents per mile during the show, but this rate applies to the entire Mis. souri country and not to Nebraska alone. “In other words the low rates apply to all stations west of Omaha as far as Cheyenne and Denver and include the states of Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas and Missour! and the Dakotas. A rate of a fare and a half had already been announced on the lines east of the riv: Other lines running west of Omaha— | the Union Facific, the Northwestern and the Missourl Pucific, have not announced special rates up to the present time.

From far Loulsiana to Omaha is a long distance, but it {s not too far for fame to travel. The United Doctors, who have their Omaha institute on the second floor of the Neville block, corner Sixteenth and Harney streets, have gained a na- tional reputation for curing old oases of deep-seated chronic and nervous diseases, which have defied ordinary doctors for years. The fact that the fame of the United Doctors has spread all over the country is the reason that littls Bessie Christ- opher of far away Louisiana, will lead a happy life instead of the life of misery to which she was doomad by that terrible disease, epllepsy, if her mother had not heard of the wonderful cures being made by these master medical specialists. It's a long trip from Loulsiana to Omaha, but it is not too far for a sick | person to go in search of a specialist who | can truly cure diseases. Mrs. Christopher, the mother of little Besste, does not con- sl it a long trip when her little dnughter's life was at stake, and now she writes the following glad letter, thanking United Doctors for curing her daughter. “My daughter, Bessie, 13 years old, has been afflicted with eplléptic fits since she was 2 years of age. We tried different doctors and specialists, but none of them 414 her any good. The attacks kept grow- ing worse as she grew older, she having some days as many as tifteen spells a day. We had to watch her constantly day and night in order to keep her from In- juring herself. “A few months ago we heard of the wonderful cures being made by the United Doctors We at once asked about my daughter's case and they said that the case was curable, We secured treatment| from them and began giving it to her at| once, and in five short days the spells stopped and she has never had a symptom of one since, “To express our gratitude and thank- fulness would be impossible. Mere words would be useless, but deep down in her mother's heart there exists a warm glow and a prayer of thankfulness for the United Doctors and their noble work, such s only a mother who has a child in that pitiful condition can fully appreciate. May the United Doctors live long and continue their grand work rescuing suffering hu- manity sll over the country. MRS. GEORGE CHRISTOPHER, Jennings, La.
