Her Father, Frank Busche,
Says He Will Prosecute
Her Husband.
HOW MUSIC WON A WIFE

Casting frightened glances back
ward at her father and at the, same
time eiInging tightly to the arm OF
her crippled husband, Mildred Busche,
Is years old, whose disappearance
from her home at 957 North Twenty
fifth street, was reported to the police
Thursday, marched into the police
building. Her dad, Frank Busche,
who has hunted high and low, east
and west, for his runaway daughter
scowled as he walked behind her and
Floyd Wathen, her spouse, and de-
livered them both into hands of the
police. -...
Il am going to prosecute him to
the limit of the law" said Mr.. Busche
vehemently, pointing to Wathen. He
married my little girl in Seward two
days ago and she is only Is years OF
age"
Wathen, cripple, is talented
pianist and a good singer. Busche
says that he sang and played his way
into his girls heart and thus won her
consent to an elopement.
Busche was his own detective in
trailing the young couple. He found
that Wathen had relatives in Chicago
and Seward. He wired Chicago po-.
lice to watch for him there and he
himself went to Seward. There he
found them, but not until the musician
and his girl had been made man and
wife. Busche ordered them to pack
their buds and move back to Omaha
They obeyed with alacrity and Busche
chaperoned the party all the way.

Wilson's Action
Balks Ed Smith,
Embargo Buster

Somewhere in the neighborhood Of
Boston, or perhaps actually within
the city limits Of Boston, was Ed P
Smith of Omaha on a mission that
has probably been rendered entirely
fruitless by the severance of diplo-
matte relations with Germany.
Mr.. Smith left Omaha for Boston
Thursday evening, representing the
Omaha Grain exchange and hoping
to influence eastern steamboat lines
to accept cargoes OF grain from Oma-
ha for shipment abroad. Smith had
planned to do little embargo-bust-
ing Of his own.
1t is likely that about the time he
stepped off the train at the Boston
passenger station a Boston newsboy
pushed an extra in his face bearing
the words, Diplomatic relations with
Germany severed -..
OF course, whether the newsboy did
this or not, no one in Omaha yet
knows, but Grain exchange men be-
lieve Smith must have arrived in Bos-
ton just about in time to buy the
first extras that came out on the new
crisis in the international situation,
which will necessarily make tn. en-
barge on exports still more rigid for
time at least.
$50 I suppose Ed will turn around
and take the next train back" said
grain man. "Oh, Ed may get his
lunch first, maybe, and probably walk
up Bunker Hill and back before train
time, but ! bet he will be riding a
Pullman for the Nebraska metropolis
again by night" = -

MARY P|CKF0RD IN
ATTRACTIVE ROLE

Mary Pickford's appearance is al
ways one of charm. No matter wheth-
er she is in rags, the silk kimOna of
butterfly, the riot of colors of far, away
India, the worn out home garments Of
Tess and the founding or the clatter-
ing wooden shoes of Hulda, there is
always the same charm, the same
sweetness and the winsomeness that
makes her so appealing to everyone.
In her latest Aircraft picture, "The
Pride Of the Clan,' to be seen in this
city shortly, she portrays the Scotch
lassie and when clad in kits and with
her golden hair thrown about her
gracefully poised head she is more
beautiful than ever 1t is a character
too that holds out every opportunity
to the star for making it one of the
most popular parts she has ever Gre
ated. In other words it is an ideal
Mary Pickford part and that is, just
what all Of the many Mary PickfQrd
admirers most want.
She appears in two shows at the Au-
ditorium this evening.
