LIFE DRAMA ENDS
At lDoGRvNooD


drama, or perhaps even tragedy,
Of the home, came in this city last
week, and the tale is worth tel
ling. The first act or acts were
set in Chicago and the events at
that place can only be guessed
at, 80 that we must begin our
story in the middle. There was
but one performance, you see,
and we came late for the first part
|.of the film.
|. About three weeks ago q man,
his wife and two children ar
rived in the city and made their
home in the old Eckes residence.
near the cemetery site. They had
come from Chicago and would
make their home here. Naturally
they got acquainted with people
and among others met John Bus
ia. One evening Mr.. Busta was
reading newspaper printed in
the Bohemian language in Chi
cago and read in it an advertise
ment. It was written by hus-
band who had been deserted by
his wife, who had run away, TAX
ing with her their two children
boys. The advertisement describ
ed the woman and children. Mr..
Busta at once recalled the wom-
an and the two boys and the de-
Escription in the ad Tailed pretty
closely with them. So he wrote
the husband, saying he believed
the wife and children were here.
Then he went to the woman and
ftalked to her and questioned her.
and her answers were such as to
confirm his first opinion.
Last Friday the husband ar
rived and took a room in the Veg
4ner block and Mr.. Busta went to
the home of the woman and, on
the pretext of securing her servi-
ces as nurse in an urgent case,
got her to hurry up to the room
with him. He opened the door
and admitted her to the room,
and when she saw her husband,
whom she had deserted, it was a
tableau such as might be seen
only on the stage. The woman
nearly tainted. After some talk
it was decided that if she would
return with .lef husband and tell
her paramour to leave on the first
train, no action at law would be
taken, and this was the final up
shot Of it. The man was told
the decision. Both he and the
woman wept unreservedly when
the time came for separation and
a queer touch was given the in
terview when she exclaimed: II
wanted you to go to the picture
show with me last night and you
said, No, wait till tonight Now
we can never go again; we have
had a terrible drama of our own.'
And the husband with his wife
and two sons left last evening for
the home in Chicago.
Perhaps the story ray seem
itawdry and commonplace, and
hardly worth the space it occu-
pies. But it may carry its les
sons. And one of these is that
the world is a small place after
all. Another is that the adver-
tisements are read. Yet another
is: BE sure your sins will find
you out. ."-Lidgerwood Broadaxe.

HUN1ING CROOKS

New York, June 5, Secret Ser
vice operatives are working in Colo
rados Arizona and New Mexico in
an effort to locate the plant Of a
gang of skillful counterfeiters
who are making halves and quar-
tiers of silver and flooding the east
with them.
These counterfeits are not as
perfect in workmanship as some
made of baser metal, but are taken
readily among the residents of the
east side. Alloys are used SO as to
make the profit about 35 cents on
each half dollar and IL and 20
cents on each quarter. Bar silver
is worth about GO cents per ounce
and the value of the dollar is
81 1929, if not in practice, still
in theory, of these profit is plenty
enough to encourage the bogus
money men, especially when the
product is so easily disposed Of.
Every silver smelter through the
west is being checked to ascertain
what becomes of it's product and
by a process of elm ination, pper-
ators believe they have succeeded in
locating the plant where the coins
are made to one of the three states
indicated. .-'"

And now we come to our Nation
al song, "The Star Spangled Ban
ner." A few years ago this was
officially adopted as the National
song of the United States. 1t had
several musical settings before the
presen: one. which was originally
an English Drinking song, ITO
Anacreon in Heaven" This song
was written for club that former
ly met at the Brown and Anchor
in the Strand London, probably by
DR.. Samuel Arnold, about the time
of the birth Of Beethoven in ITO.
Francis Scott Key, during the Brit
ish attack on Baltimore in 1914
and while detained on the British
feet during the bombardment of
Fort Henry. wrote the verses Of
the Star SpaDgled Banner and
fitted them to this old tune. The
stanzas were first printed in the
Baltimore American.
There are many more, some pro-
duced by the War Of 1912, many
during the Civil war but few of
them have become famous. There
il something about our National
Airs that no other songs possess.
They have meaning distinctly
their own. Whether il is in the
composition that the meaning ORR
glnates or whether it is in the
patriotism. natural to every true
American, 1t is there. Whether it
be the ludicrous "Yankee Doodle"
or the beautiful Star Spanglcd
Banner" it Is the sane. And to
quote from the man in the song,
which seems to express the general
sentiment,
ANY tune like Yankee Doodle,
Simply sets me off my noodle,
Its patriotic something
That no one can understand"
