Light Fingered Sleep Walker
With Taking Ways Detained
After Early Call at YM 4.

Earl Welsh IS a native of Omaha,
Neb., who left the town of stock
yards and packing houses to come
to South Bend He had heard that
this city was particularly suited TO a
man who had taking ways.
The visitor arrived here last Satur-
Cay and engaged a room at the Y.
NJ. c. A. He had not been there long
before his eagle eye noted that the
occupant of room 429 at the ~. ="
was in the habit of leaving his door
open. even at night. Knowing that
such things are never done in
Omaha. this fact weighed upon Earl
until he wanted to know the why
and wherefore of it.
He had seen "429" several times
and knew that the gentleman in that
room seemed to be a jolly, compan-
ionable chap, so Earl, well-versed in
Nebraska hospitality, decided TO pay
429 a visit.
Earl was not aware that social
calls-locally at least-are made in
the afternoon or evening, so he
chose 4 o'clock this morning as the
hour in which TO get acquainted.
50 "429" was naturally surprised
TO awake at that early time and find
Earl crouching at the foot Of the
bed The following dialogue took
place:
What are you doing in my
room ?"
I'm a somnambulist; l walk in
my slumbers'
What number is your room -
"422."
How long have YOU been in our
fair city,"

And who is chairman of that

"Secy Redfeld"
When "429" heard this answer he
was convinced that his visitor was,
TO say the least, bordering on a
slight departure from moral integ-
rity. Suspicion entered the mind of
"429." He took Welsh and led him
down stairs to the night clerk and
after a three cornered conversation,
Earl admitted that he had gone to
the room to steal.
Police authorities were notified
and took the visitor from the Corn
husker state TO the police station.
Three suitcases were found in
Welsh's room, none Of which be-
longed TO him. He would not say
where he had secured the grips. but
admitted TO Sergt. Barnhart that ne
had stolen 10 from a man at the Y.

else we have backache and dull misery
in the kidney region, severe head
aches, rheumatic twinges, torpid liver,
acid stomach, sleeplessness and all

You simply must keep your kidneys

feel an ache or pain in the kidney

BOARD Of STRATEGY
PLANS SUFFRAGE FIGHT
Workers viii Line Up in Sup
port Of Amendment; Garry
Fight 10 Conventions.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Columbus.-Behind closed doors,
sitting as board of strategy. planning
preparedness for the national battle
for suffrage, the Ohio suffrage repre-
Sentatives held two prolonged sessions
here.
Strategists explained the best means
OF forcing the fight now pending in
congress and making the fight for suf-
frage planks at Republican and Demo
cratic national conventions.
Workers from all sections of the
state, in secret conclaVe, were in
structed in the work expected of them.
Congressman from Ohio were under
consideration and their standing with
reference to suffrage was disclosed by
those who have been given the task
of learning it. Those congressman for
the suffrage amendment were named
those who might be influenced were
in another group and those who are
against suffrage we're made known.
In much the same way the attitude
of state officials and men prominent IN
state politics were presented to the
workers.
One thing Is certain, the candidates
for delegate to the two national con-
ventions will find themselves in the
suffrage campaign right from the
start.
Whatever may happen to the Susan
B. Anthony amendment in congress
the women plan to visit the two con
ventions and try to win declaration
from both parties in favor of the
amendment and of suffrage for WON
en-. Whatever may happen at the two
national conventions, the fight will &c
ahead and will next involve the can
didates for congress in each Ohio dis
trict
The general plan of campaign has
shifted somewhat Instead of seeking
amendments in the various states, the
women now seek a congressional act
enfranchising women, that act to be
adopted by the various states to be
come effective.
