daughter Of widow living at 2306
South Twentieth, is the little girl, and
Robert Strather, ll9 Turner boule-
ward, is the boy.
Parents allow their youngsters to
roam around at night. That's half of
it. The other half is that there seems
to be an alarming number of lodging
house keepers who will harbor the
children" was the statement OF the
officers.
According to the police the little
Sifl was left to her own devices most
Iof the time because her mother was
busy earning living. At night she

OMAHA WOMEN TAKE
NOTICE OF AFFAIRS
Await With Interest the Com.
ing of the Presidential Can
didate.
INTERESTED IN POLITICS
By MELLIFICIA-August 9.


Omaha women are no longer the
mere pretty futter- budgets OF mans
imagination. True, they are just as
pretty and just as we'll dressed as
ever. They take just as good care
of their families and their establish
ments as they ever took, and as they
should take. But there has come
great change in their lives. Nova
days, instead Ct discussing exclu-
sively the latest fashions, the newest
household improvements or the
servant problem whenever they meet
to drink social cup of tea or hold
a hand in game of cards, they dis
cuss the current topics of the day.
Many Omaha women are keen pol
iticians-that is, they are we'll versed
in the political affairs of the day. At
recent card party the talk turned to
the presidential candidates and dis
cussion ran high on the question.
The prospect of a visit to Omaha of
Charles Evans Hughes was subject
of great interest As one we'll known
woman expressed it, 1--WE are no
longer limited to our housekeeping;
we can take an interest in the ma
tional house"

Stickups Take Dice
Only Off This Victim

In all the records of complaints re-

entered yesterday by Harrison Tai

He was held up by two robbers on
the Twenty-fourth street viaduct and
a pair of red dice was taken from
him. The robbers passed up all of
Talbot's valuables. The case was the
cause Of much conjecture by the

BOXING SPORTS OF !
MuIligan, the Cub recruit infieIder,
according to Joe Tinker, is the best
looking young man that ever broke
into the big leagues. Joe was not re-
feTring to the physical features Of
the recruit, but to the ability he
showed in handling a baseball and
bat.
It's old stuff, men, and MuIligan is
about the only fellow on the Cub
team about whom it could be pulled.
This year he can't be told that there
are any second .Johnsons or Mathew
sons among the pitchers, for we
know the abilities of all MUlligan,
however, is good for a column or
two of early season dope and is
little ray of sunshine to- the baseball
writer's, who are finding news scarce
in Tampa.
Tearing off the saIVe stuff, Mulligan
is a good ballplayer, though there
have been youngsters who looked
much better when they first came to
the big tent. The little Irishman,
however, has the earmarks of a
conner, and in his few performances
on the West Side last fall impressed
ibis audience with his dOings.
He schouId prove invaluable to the
team, for there will be plenty of work
for utility man during the coming
summer. History of the diamond
shows that veteran ball players are
more liable to injuries than young
men, and are forced to take more fire.

the team is. handicapped. MuIigan
should be the stop-gap there, with
Zeider and Mccarthy to fill in. If
any fellow goes from the infieId line
up, it is probable it will be Mccarthy,
but Manager Tinker will try to ar
range his roster so he can retain
three extra men.
Pitchers Bill Bailey and George
label and Frank Schultz reported to
Tinker yesterday and there was no
need for Joe to make good his threat
to fine them $1OO if they failed to
show up. If the manager had to make
good on all the threats he pulls on a
training trip he would be a busy per-
son.
Aside from the natural mechanical
ability he boasts, Ray SchaIk is a
great catcher because he is earnest
about his work, takes it as serious
business and really like to play base
ball. When the midget backstop is
in ball game he fOrgets everything
else and is fighting just as hard with
the team away behind as when the
battle lines are drawn tight.
And there has never been heard a
kick from any SOx manager that
Schalk didn't take care of himself
and keep in condition. When he re-
ports in the spring there is no need
for him to waste a lot of time run
ming around a minor league ball yard
in a rubber shirt to take off some ex-
cess weight. That is because he
takes care of himself in the off sea-
sons as well as during the pennant
chase. He's the kind of a man any
manager wants to get hold of, and
would be if he had about 70 per cent
of his ability.

Liquor Interests Condemn the Movies

The picture show-there are some
"a, 900 in this country, it is said-is
diverting thousands of dollars every
day from the saloon. 1t is more pop
ular than the "poor mans club" and
the liquor interests are declaiming
against the movie menance." Not
on financial grounds, however. They
declare that the films representing
conditions surrounding the retail
liquor trade are preposterous and un-
truthflly magnified display hav-
ing misleading effects upon the public
mind, particularly upon the minds of
women and children" In reply to
this complaint, voiced by the N National
Liquor Dealers Association and the
liquor press, the Photo Play Maya
zine offers "to run set Of pictures
fully descriptive of any big thoughts,
high ideals, philosophical actions,
or types of splendid manhood, which
the saloon business may be evolved
or will evolve" It's now up to the
liquor men. Here's an opportunity
to present. to the public the good points
of the trade and to use most effective
advertising medium.
