JUDGE REFUSES FATHER
RIGHT TO SEE CHILDREN
Parent Crosses Ocean to Embrace
Little Ones and Is Forbidden
Privilege

CINCINNATI, April 2.-By ruling
of Federal Judge Thompson yesterday,
Friedrich Karl Theis, a chemist of
Germany, was denied a look at his
children for which purpose he had
crossed the ocean.
Theis and his two sons were sepa-
rated from each other by the walls of
the court room, but the Judges rul-
filing prevented the father from seing
his children.
Theis has sworn to a writ of habeas
corpus to get possession of his two
sons, whom he alleged were being held
in restraint by their mother, formerly
Dora Schmidt, in the home of relatives
in Cincinnati. The question of juris-
diction was raised by the attorney for
the wife.
Before the judge ruled on the mo-
ton Diminishing the writ, Attorney
Powell, for Theis, asked the court to
have Mrs. Theis and the two boys,
aged and 8, brought into the court
room. The court said he could not do
so until he had determined whether or
not he had jurisdiction.
After the judge ruled he could do
nothing for Theis, Attorney Powell
made personal request to the brother
of Mrs Theis to plead with her to let
the husband and father have one look
at his two sons. The request was
spurned and the two boys were taken
away before the writ was dismissed
Mrs. Theis had obtained divorce in
the courts of Hamilton county and had
been awarded the custody of the two
boys. Theis did not know that his
wife had secured divorce.
Dora Schmidt was born in the United

STARTS CRUSADE TO SAVE
TREES FROM DISSERTATION
Chicagoan penounces Act of Candi-
dates In Hanging Their Portraits
on Leafy Limbs

CHICAGO. April "A distressing"
feature of the local political campaign
has moved Winona S. Fitzjones to is
sue the following "open letter" to the
public:
"'Preserve the forests is the ma
tional cry, but we add, preserve Chi
cago shade trees
ut is not enough that the trees along
our lake shore must endure the blasts,
the billiards. and the gales through
the long winter months, but at this
season of the year they are standing
in dumb anguish, swayed by the pic
lures of our candidates for aldermen
on big black and white Autographs,
most distracting.
"If these pictures are nailed UP for
our admiration or encouragement, they
fail utterly in their mission, for most
of them look like the medical ad en-
great deal of a Chicago tree to stand
up against a job of this kind, and
asking much more of our citizens to
look with favor or patience upon the
candidacy of a man who makes his
likeness an eyesore to his fellow citi-
zens.
eff we are to decorate our trees
with pictures of men, a committee of
citizens should be appointed (students
of physiognomy preferred), whose duty
it should be to select pictures whose
outlines indicate intelligence of a high
degree and physical attractiveness.
"It is impossible to comprehend the
frame of mind of a politician of
coarse and unattractive features, de-
string to display his mental and phys
ical imperfections to the citizens of his
ward.
IF l were a voter, I would take my
chances on the other fellow after
having seen the picture of one candi-
date on the trees struggling for exist
ence> on one particular street. These
trees cry out to heaven for relief from
their political burdens"
