MISS HAGAR LANDS VICTIM
Secretary Of Associated Charities Does Fine
Piece Of sprinting.
CHASES WOMAN OVER MANY BLOCKS
Runs her TO nay In Hotel and
Finds she Is an ImpOster
Instead of worthy
BeEEnr,

Two women shook hands IN front Of the
city hall Wednesday afternoon about
o'clock. They had met for the first tim
one intended the hand clasping TO mark
the parting Of their ways, while the othet
found that the greeting was but the starter
for a lively chase which lasted over two
hours and which was fraught with enough
melodramatic action to make a Lincoln J
I Carter thriller.
The heroine in the case was Miss Emily
Hagar assistant secretary Of the Asso-
ciated Charities. while the maverick was
Mrs. Schuyler, who was sentenced thirty
days by Police Judge Crawford Thursday
morning Miss Hegar played detective with
considerable skill and ultimate success
She hung onto her quarry in a chase which
included a circuitous route Of the business
part OF town.
DIT. James S. Goetz in The Bee build
ing, Wednesday afternoon telephoned the
Office OF the Associated Charities that an
old woman was soliciting money for the
avowed purpose Of buying transportation
to friends in Missouri. The doctor sug.
gested that the charity Organization fur.
nish the ticket Miss Hagar responded
in person and was on the way with Mrs
| Schuyler TO the Associated Charities Office
when Mrs Schuyler hesitatsd on the pre-
I text she had left Il package in a restaurant
and feared the place would close before
train time. As a token Of good faith that
she would return to the charities office
within the hour Mrs. Schuyler shook the
hand Of Miss Hagsr. Then the chase.
Miss HaEnr Sees II All.
Miss Hagar, read between the lines and
resolved 70 stay with Mrs. Schuyler, and
the assistant secretarys staying qualities
proved to be of a strenuous character Mrs.
Schuyler started down Farnam street with
Miss Hagar in pursuit. Miss Hagar is q
small woman, but can go some on &C.
cason. Mrs. Schuyler coverd Farnam,
Douglas and Dodge streets, entered several
stores where she made small purchases,
with Miss Hagar i'm the running all the
time Seized with fit of evaporation at
the persistence of Miss Hagar. Mrs.
Schuyler started to run south on Tenth
street. Miss Hagar knows how to run.
The last lap brought the twain up to a
Japanese rooming house at Ninth and
Leavenworth street, where Mrs. Schuyler
entered and was for the time being lost
to view.
Miss Hagar hurried to Union station,
secured the services of a policeman, with
whom she returned to the japanese rooming
house. The proprietor at first denied the
presence Of a woman described as Mrs.
Schuyler, but the officer got the keys and
began trying doors. When Mrs. Schuyler
door was reached the woman answered
and her daughter came out and fell on the
necks of the policeman and Miss Hagar,
begging both not to modest her mother.
The woman was arrested on a charge of
vagrancy and sentenced thirty days by the
police Judge Thursday morning It de-
veloped that the probation officer had a war
rant for the Schuyler girl who is Il years
OF age. The daughter is now in the De-
tention home.

Never so short.

I'VE have never been so short of girls
before" said President c. E. Yost of the
Bell Telephone company. I'VE may be
compelled to bring In some operators from
the country towns. We are in need Of
forty right now and none are in sight"
Telephone girls work eight hours and
earn from SIS to $50 a month. They have
to be of a particular physical size. Fat
girls won't do. for they will not ht into
the little chairs provided for them, and
girls with short arms will not do, for they
can't reach around over the switchboard,
In the department stores there is also
need of girls. Nearly 5000 of them are
employed in the department stores Of
Omaha. I'VE are always able to provide
places for good girls at the present time,
said David Baum OF the Bennett company.
Restaurants and hotels are calling ur-
gently at .the employment agencies for
mattresses who can earn from $40 to SIS.
THE demand for girl stenographers is
stronger than ever before in Omaha" said
Miss Rhoda Breakey, manager of the
local Smith Premier employment bureau.
I'VE are able to fll only about three
fourths OF the positions which are open
at present. We need particularly girls who
are neat, conscientious and fairly educa-
ted"
The demand for girls for general house
work is so great that many people in the
city have despaired of getting any help
and have settled down to try to get along
without girls. The wages run as high as
/ 81 a week.
Harry Morrill,. clerk at the marriage
license bureau, is the only man who does
not report a shortage in this line.
II find that every applicant for a mar
riage license has a girl" says Mr.. Morrill,
cheerfully. mo. sir, no stringency here"

For the last eighteen months we have
been without the girl help we need and
are today about seyenty-fve girls short
We have had advertisements in the daily
papers and lately I decided TO put posters
on the bill boards, thinking that perhaps
there were some girls who do not read the

the posters bring. It's not a question OF
