f ) 03T OF VISITORS SER SHOW AT DEN k-Sar-Ben Initiation for Ken- narders and Workmen Delegates. ‘STRANGLER' IS NO TALKER “Coronado and the Bull” pleased 300 natives of Kennard Monday at he Den and heaven only knows how " many delegates of the Ancignt Order of United Workmen now in session in Omaha. Kennard rolled in in auto- mobiles, by train and every other way. The Workmen rolled in on trains from eve y part of the state. And at the Dén they rolled and rolled and rolled, when there was no train to roll them at all, for the mas- terly artisan has invented rolling ma- chinery and rolling stock of his own peculiar make. Gaines Makes Hit. W. N. Gaines, a professor of the remont Normal school, came with the Kennard crowd as their specially delegated orator and such an oration! By all odds he got the greatest BE' lause a speaker has received at Ak- gar-Ben Den in two or three years. e ran from onc end of the stage to e other, and he praised the state of Nebraska and Omaha from one end of the boundaries to the other. “Nebraska first, Nebraska last,” he shouted, “and Nebraska still when Gabriel blows his blast.” He told the audience that of the 300 men present from Kennard, 297 were born on Ne- braska homesteads. F. A. Anderson of Holdrege, grand master of the Ancient Order of United Workmen, spoke briefly, tell- ing something of the work of the or- der, and thanking Omaha and Ak- Sar-Ben for the entertainment offered. Strangler Won't Talk. Gene Melady, Strangler Lewis and the .wrestler's trainer Sandow were also on the stage. Sandow told the audience what he thought of Omaha as a booster town, and thanked ev- erybody for the courteous treatment he and-his wrestling companion had received in Omaha. Lewis refused to spéak, even though the crowd roared and stamped for him to say something as to how he intends to pin Joe Stech- er to the mat on July 4. vy Ak-Sar-Ben's show is rounding into shape better and better. The players have so thoroughly mastered their parts now that they are thoroughly at home at every moment, and there is no suggestion of stage fright even in little Jess Willard, who lugs the gigantic sword, the military property of his master, “Tatarax.” Wife of Patrolman Plotts Dies at Hospital Mrs. E. N. Plotts, wife of Patrol- man Plotts of the police department died at 6:45 last evening at Imman- uel Hospital as the result of a long siege of typhoid fever. Mrs. Plotts was 40 years old and had lived in Omaha for 12 years dur- ing which time she has been a fayor- ‘iite in North Omaha society. She was president of the North Omaha Mother's Club for some time. Be- sides her husband she leaves two children, Morris, aged 10 years and Margaret 7. The place of the funeral has not as yet been decided on, but will probably be at the home, 3324 Fowler Avenue. Here’s One Horse That the Allies Will Not Get Two men giving their names as Frank Collins and Ed Smith were ar- rested last night on complaint of Chris J. Hughes, 2516 South Thirty- second avenue, proprietor of a livery barn at 4815 South Twenty-fifth street. Hughes charges the men sold him a horse that was later confiscated by the sheriff from Glenwood, Ia., as having been stolen from near that place. Hughes is out the $122 he paid for the horse. Hughes has been buy- ing horses to sell to French army buyers.

STORY OF CAPTAIN MOREY Press. the Field Headquarters, Mex., June 27. —(By Wireless to Columbus, N. M.) —American negro troopers faced al- most certain death at Carrizal with smiles in their eyes and slang on their lips and they burst into song once or twice as they fought their grim fight against odds. This was the story told by Captain Lewis S. Morey, when he arrivecy at field headquarters today. “For forty-five minutes the men fought, joking among themselves all the wl\i{c. even though they realized we had been trapped and had little chance of getting out alive,” he said. Captain Morey said that he had never seen such valor as was_dis- played by Captain Charles T. Boyd in leading a handful of dismounted skirmishers through the machine gun fire into the ambush of death. Officer’s Heroic Death, He added that it was not until their ammunition_was exhausted that the troop was finally cut to pieces, and told of the heroic death of Lieutenant Henry R. Adair of Portland, Ore,, in an attempt to replenish it. Lieutenant Adair died fighting, his Isat words being, “Go on, sergeant,” to a noncommissioned officer at his side, Captain Morey said. The two were on their way to the pack ani- mals carrying the ammunition, when they were intercepted near a small irrigation ditch by a detail of Mex- icans. Lieutenant Adair had already been wounded and had lost his pistol in the previous fighting, but he had borrowed another and was fighting a Knicker- in the city A for Hame- 800 B. C. anna T.

The sergeant held Adair in his arms, his face above the water, until he died, the wounded officer reviving only long enough to whisper orders to leave him and finish the mission, Captain Morey said that Captain Boyd warned the men before the fight that they were advancing into the greatest danger. He reiterated that the Carranzistas opened fire first from their machine gun trench and asserted that almost immediately aft- erward a detachment of the Mexicans circled to the rear and drove off num- bers of the American horses, which a few men had been left to hold while the cavalrymen dismounted in line of skirmish. and in a troop and that of Captain Boyd to scparate and to fight what were prac- tically individual engagements, Cap- tain Morey said.

Captain Morey was brought here by troops of the Eleventh .cavalry sent to rescue Carrizal survivors after having led a handful of starving, pant- ing troopers forty miles over a sun- baked desert to relief.
