GLEASON NOT HELD
ON FEDERAL CHARGE
Testimony Does Not Show He
Got Ring by Impersonating
Secret Service Agent.
NO CASE AGAINST HIM

After four-hour hearing before
United States Commissioner Nc
Laughlin, Charles E. Gleason, trav.
cling salesman for 81, Omaha piano
house, who was arrested about three
weeks ago by federal authorities and
charged with impersonating govern
ment secret service officer, was dis
charged.
The specific charge for which Glea
son was held was that of obtaining
a diamond ring valued at 5000 from
Jessie P. SMzer Of Windheld, w. Va,
! nurse, on the strength OF his al
legged Cfice as serciet service man
in the employ of the United States
government.
Commissioner Mclaughlin, in de-
Gliding whether or not the evidence
warranted the defendant being hell
to the federal grand Jury, declared he
would base his findinr on a, common
sense basis and from a standpoint o.
right and wrong.
How He Got the Ring.
The whole case hinged on the fact
whether or not Miss Sulzer gave
Gleason the diamond ling through the
influence brought to bear along the
lines of his secret service" prestige,
as sworn to by the woman on the wit
ness stand.
The United States commissioner
ruled that the government attorney
had not sustained the technical charge
that Gleason, by virtue of his alleged
tales of secret service operations, got
possession of the ring through influ
ence of that nature.
The somewhat lengthy hearing was
taken up for the most part by the Of
fering of mass of testimony by the
government attorney and Gleason's
counsel, l. ]. Dunn, and frequent tits
over legal technicalities.
Tells Weird Tales.
According to Miss Suffers story on
the witness stand Old King Brady,
Nick Carter, ct al, in their palmiesf
days didn't have anything on Glea-
son when it came to vivid rehearsals
OF "sleuth hound" operations.
She testified Gleason told her that
while he was secret servicing" he
had chased counterfeiters to their
den, battled with ten Of them and
was finally overpowered, spending
eight months in a hospital ,as a re-
suit; had run white slavers to earth;
frequently had to drop off the earth

Local Credit Men

Members of the Omaha Associa-
ton of Credit Men, an organization
of Omaha, Lincoln and Council Bluffs
credit men, gathered at the Loyal
hotel Thursday evening for banquet
an dto hear an address by Stanley M.
Rosewater on Bankruptcy Law and
the Credit Men" Mr.. Rosewater ex-
planned that while some improve
ments could be made by amendments
it would be a mistake to repeal the
federal bankruptcy law because it
would be replaced by as many, and
probably conflicting laws as there are
states in the union. Following Mr..
Rosewater's talk general discussion
ensued.
Officers of the association are: B.
A. Wilcox, president; c. N. Robinson,
vice president; c. F. Brinkman, treas

Train Your Hair as
an Actress Does

No class Of people devote as much
time to beauty as do actresses, and
naturally no class must be more care
full to retain and develop their charms.
Inquiry among them develops the in
formation that in hair care they find
it dangerous to shampoo with any
makeshift hair cleanser. Instead they
have studied to find the finest prep
aration made for shampooing and
bringing out the beauty of the hair.
The majority of them say that to
enjoy the best hair wash and scalp
stimulator that is known, get pack
age of canthrox from your druggist;
dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of
hot water and your shampoo is ready.
1t costs less than 3 cents for this
amount. After its use the hair dries
rapidly, with uniform color. Dand-
ruff, excess oil and dirt are dissolved
and entirely disappear. Your hair
will be so fluffy that it will look much
heavier than it is. Its luster and
softness will also delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.-Adv.
