Auto Accident
Arouses People
to Take Action
Injuries Received By Paul ]. Klein
lein Back of Complaint Agrainst
Speed Maniacs.

The case of Paul j. Klenlein, electrician
at the Illinois Central bridge, who was
run down and seriously injured late last
Thirty-fifth street, by a. speeding automo-
bile, has aroused the people of the west
ern part of the tieyS The occupants of the
automobile, whichH after knocking Klein
lein down, passed over his body failed to
stop, but instead put on full speed and
FASTENED across the bridge to Omaha.
Complaint has been made to the author
tiles and request made that some steps
be taken to arrest and punish violators
of the speed ordinance on West Broadway.
Last summer several accidents were re-
ported and for time the city authorities
had West Broadway patroled by an officer
day and night.
The residents of that section of the city
threaten to take the law into their hands
as they did for while last summer when
several automobile parties were made tar
gets for missiles of various kinds. On one
occasion we'll known society woman who
was in a car which was greeted with a
fusillade from a crowd Of youngsters, was
struck between the eyes with an overripe
tomato which had soJourned for consd-
cradle time in a garbage can. The trouble
with this practice is that the innocent Oft
times suffer for the guilty.
The authorities have the matter under
consideration and 1t is likely that the po-
lice patrol service on West Broadway will
be resumed.

bars, threatening the officer.
He was forced to back between some
freight cars and he with the Waterman at
the Updike elevator were preparing to
shoot when Officers Elsfelder and Nc
CURE OF the city police force arrived as
reinforcement. These men had been called
from the switch shanty in that vicinity
With difficulty the four men dispersed the
crowd of irritated residents.
The habit of pasturing cows on the right
of-way of the railroad is of long standing
and II is said the grass is better. longer
and sweeter than anywhere else. 1t is
said to be necessary to break down the
railroads fence to get the COWS in and
also declared that when COW gets killed
by passing train ihe same broken fence
is made the basis Of a suit for damages for
the loss of the COW. To avoid such claims
the company has ordered the Waterman to
drive cows from the right-of-way. An APP
peal has been lade to the poundmaster to
take up these amin AIS but as yet he has
been too busy harvesting the annual crop
of pups, spaniels and ours to stoop to a
cow
After appealing to the poundmaster the
company gave orders to it's Waterman to

The Boss Of the Establishment
BY AMERE MAN.

The Boss of the Establishment had come
home early to get ready for the garden
patry and barn dance, a function to be
held during the afternoon and evening at
the country home of his wifes brother.
Originally the Boss had displayed a GER
tain lukewarmness toward the contem-
plated, excursion into suburban society,
but, spurred by the calculated opposition of
his spouse, he had ended with a perempt-
ory declaration that they must accept the
invitation at all costs.
During the week. however, the Boss
courage for the undertaking had waned APP
probably, and now as he dressed he
glanced every little while out of the win
dow, finally remarking hopefully:
81 think it's going to rain"
1.-THE wish is father to the thought.
imagine" answered the wife.
Father and mother and the whole
family" confessed the Boss candidly. And
then he added with increased optimism,
"Of course they won't expect us If 1t
rains"
The Boss wife turned sharply from the
mirror at which she was making herself
beautiful and charming:
Now look here" she exclaimed, there's
no use trying to wriggle out of this en-
gagement! You know l didn't want to go
and that you made me accept! But that't
always the way! You're a grand promiser
when something you don't want to do is a
few days off, but when the time comes you
refuse to go and throw all the responsible
ity upon metz
II will be observed that the Boss wife
was not in a mood which, by any stretch
Of tho Imagination could he termed adOr-
able.
who said anything about not going?'
the Boss clustered Indignantly. But I'M
derstand, young woman, If you're not
ready in fifteen minutes Wen miss the
train, and II we do We'll not go!'
THAT seems to be a self-evident PROPOSE
tion," she retorted Jelly.
Bad humor in the Boss wife was always
Omaha daily bee., 1910-05-24

marked by an extraordinary precision of
speech and department. Nevertheless, she
hurried and, possibly to the Boss secret
disappointment, they caught the train
One hour later, as they painted up the
steep hillside leading to their designation
the Boss who had recovered his cheerful
ness observed: MY! But this country air
gives one an appetite! I'm starved al
ready. I suppose, though, all I'll get to
eat is a cup of tea and ladyfinger!"
"Oh. no." his wife treasured him.
There's to be a regular dinner out Of
doors"
Reaching the piazza, they were greeted
by half grown boy servant employed to
milk the cows during the week, but now
resplendent in white duck and new yellow
shoes.
Your name, please" commanded the
transformed functionary, as the Boss and
his wife mounted the steps.
Many and many half dollar had found
Its way from the Boss pocket to the boys

no previous acquaintance to interfere with
the formula that he had been taught.
