Bishop" Williams
Run Out of Town
Colored Man Who Worked Omaha
and South Omaha is Invited to
Leave Duluth.

Bishop" Williams or a colored man
peddling that. name in Omaha and South
Omaha some months ago, was recently
invited to leave the city of Duluth and he
accepted the invitation.
He and a negro character In Minnesota
cities named Jim Lee and calling himself
Rev" J. H. Lee, were doing" the town
just as the ,"Bish" and a colored woman
did Omaha and South Omaha until his
reverence and the police had some mis-
understanding.
Br'er williams stunt was to represent
himself as the bishop of the Apostolic
African Methodist church engaged in pro-
viding homes for orphans. Such a home he
pretended to establish at South Omaha.
He rented a squalid shack there and posted
a set of rules in the hall. Any man with a
sense OF humor in his soul could not read
the rules without falling in a heap on the
floor from laughter. One rule read: "All
gentlemen which enters this house shall
remove his hat from their head and wipe
their feet and not smoke, but be polite to
ladies'"
The Dish came here from Kansas City,
where, Investigation proved, he left much
the same as he has left Duluth. During
his stay in Omaha, a demand came from
Kansas City that he be taken into custody
for not supporting his wife.
He assumed the vestments of a clerical
mar and fought a brave fight to don the
dignity that goes with the clothes, but when
he opened his mouth and began to talk he
put his foot In it. for the grammer they
taught in his school boy days differed so
radically from that in vogue today.

Wireless telegraphy continues TO add to
it's laurels. II has just been used to inter
cept the flight OF a young man accused OF
a felony in New York state. The man
whom the law seeks was aboard a United
states war vessel far out on the Atlantic
when the message was flashed across the
waves to arrest him. He was placed In
custody and will be met on the return OF
the ship and given an opportunity to be
heard before a jury in his own defense.
Except for the growing tendency to sus-
pend tho death penalty of the capital crime,
Il is accurate to say that each year 1t be
comes more difficult for a criminal to
escape the consequence of his crime. 1t
was formerly an easy matter for forger or
swindler to get out OF the country and into
a foreign land where the laws arm could
not reach him. Extradition treaties. now
becoming nearly universal, have robbed the
criminal of this source Of immunity. Just
the other day a treaty with Honduras
closed one Of the last resorts to the fleeing
offenders OF the United States. Enlistment
in the navy was once a common method
Of escaping unpleasant circumstance at
home. Under an assumed name and in
some distant part of the country a young
man could swear himself into the service
and, conditions being favorable, might hope
10 escape the consequences OF his tndis-
erection.
Now the wireless steps In and links the
broad seas to the relentless laws jurisdic-
ton. What chance has a fleeing criminal
to escape the clutches OF the law II every
wireless station along the shore is an agent
actively denouncing his GRIM and. II every
steamer on the great ocean Is an answering
sentinel ready to snatch him by the collar
and put him in irons? Clearly the offender
against the laws has fallen on hard, un-
feeling times.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

DANCE ART HELPS WIN SUIT
"Terpsichorean Skill" Cited as Ele-

PROFESSOR CHAMBERS THE MAN
Ir' g.. shelly wins Complicated Lift
cation In District Court Before
Judge RedIck ~InvOIving
"a Property Rights.

One Of the most complicated cases before
a Judge of the district court in recent years
was ended by Judge Redick, Saturday
morning. when he ruled for t. C. Shelly
and against the Omaha Cattle Loan com
pany. In the course Of his decision the
terpsichorean skill OF Prof. Chambers"
/ came in for some praise.
The suit was brought TO render available
for execution on q judgment the residence
property at Thirty-second street and Wool
worth avenue, owned by Mrs. Shelly and
the property of the Chambers Academy
company In which Mrs. Shelly is also in
sterested.
When the Shelly Rogers company failed
a few years ago creditors, including the
Cattle Loan company, secured all the assets
OF Shelly, but could not touch Mrs. Shelly's
own property. A judgment against Shelly
secured. fraudulent conveyance was alleged
and the suit just over was brought in the
hope that Mrs. shelly's property might be
made subject to the judgment.
The case occupied three weeks last July
and three weeks in October, nearly all Of
which was taken with the hearing Of evil
dence, although the arguments lasted four
days.
90 Wife.
Judge Redick held that the investiture OF
the property in Mrs. Shelly was under
taken at a time, 1900, when the Shelly
Rogers company was in a highly prosperous
condition, and that for a mar at such a
time TO set aside property against the
hazard Of the future was a perfectly proper
undertaking.. Moreover, the court declared
that Shelly owed his wife g moral, II not
a legal debt. having previously given her
a house, then sold 1t and invested the
money IN the Sheliy-Rogers company.
Other money went at a similar time when
Shelly was far from insolvent into the
Chambers Academy company in his wife's
name. and the success Of the company
has depended" said the court. upon the
terpsichorean skill of Prof. Chambers and
Mr.. Shelly's business sagacity."
Mccoy & Olmstead represented the de-
PENDANT and w. A. Corson the plaintiff and
tho latter came in for a compliment from
the court in his presentation OF the case
and manifest willingness to aid the court
in coming to a knowledge of the facts in
volved.'
What made the case so complicated was
that the plaintiff undertook to show that
some of the debts owed by Shelly at the
e time OF failure had their origin back be-
fore the time wheh he gave the money to
his wife.
