VICTIM OF AUTO
WRECK ENGAGED
TO BLFS. WOMAN
Wedding Date Set for Next
Week; Friends Save Body
From Burial in Pot
ters' Field.

James Allen of Council Bluffs.
who was killed when the automobile
in which he was riding was wreck
ed at the Broadway and Thirteenth
street bridge Monday night, was
to have been married TO Mrs. Emma
Quimby of Council Bluffs next week.
He met Mrs. Quinby in Missouri
several years ago. He spent the
early part of the evening with <her
Monday night, and she came very
nearly being one of the passengers
in the death car, only mere whim,
she says, kept her from joining the
party that went to Omaha. Mrs
Quinby lives with the Case family
over the store at 53S Broadway.
Robbed of $3.50.
1t is believed that after he had
been instantly killed when the speed
ing car made flying leap over the
bridge truss. some ghoul robbed his
body of $3.50. Allen is said to have
made money rapidly in the alleged
hauling of whisky. He furnished
$1,000 in cash bonds following his ar
rest of January 2 and paid a $500
fine and costs in the district court
on January Is.
AT 7:30 o'clock on Monday night
he had roll of bills containing $50,
part of it in ST bills, which he car
ried loosely in the inside pocket of
his vest. When body was picked up
and taken to the Cutler morgue, the
only money found was some
small change. Examination of his
vest showed that two buttons pro-
tecting the inner pocket had been
torn off. 1t is believed that some
person, knowing where he kept his
money, had torn open the vest and
snatched the money.
Many people were around the
scene of the accident when the police
officers arrived.
No Word From Parents.
No word has been received by
Coroner Cutler from the parents of
Allen in Tennessee, and as only
few dollars was found in his pockets
his grave would have been made in
the potters' field if friends had not
advanced all the money required for
burial. SO far as known he had few
acquaintance here but had made
some friends who esteemed him
highly and were determined that he
should not have pauper's funeral.
They say that he came from a
fine southern family and had never
had any trouble until the lure of
running the booze blockade brought
him into conflict with the law. The
funeral will be held at 2 o'clock this
afternoon at Cutters chapel. The
services will be conducted by Rev.
A. ]. Matthews. pastor of the Fifth
avenue Methodist church. Burial
will be in Fairview cemetery.

CamoufIeur Describes Work
Done During War to Re-
pei Attacks of Naval or
Air Ships.

New York, March Huge NOR
tars, standing on concrete emplace.
ments and abundantly supplied with
half-ton projectiles, were erected
during the war among flowers and
shrubbery of private gardens in New
York city and elsewhere along the
Atlantic coast, ready to repel the at
tacks of German naval or airships.
Macmillan Toch, one of the first
American camouheurs, told the
New York section of the American
Chemical society tonight.
Mr.. Toch described how honey
suckle, morning glory and ivy, as
well as paints. had been employed
to conceal or lower the visibility of
coast Notifications.
Guns on Private Estates.
Ambrose channel, the mouth of
New York harbor, was protected, in
addition to the guns in the regular
army forts, by mortars having a
range of twelve miles, said Mr..
Toch. Some of these auxiliary can
non, he declared, were placed two
aud a half miles inland on private
estates and so concealed by arrange
ment of trees. shrubbery and flowers
that passersby were ignorant of
their erection and even aviators
found little or no evidence" of
their location. They were manned
by army gun crews, ready for in
slant action.
The camouAeur described also
his work in Disgusting the navy
yards and docks along the Atlantic
coast, near the Pensacola and Key
West bases. which were exposed to
attacks by German raiders and sub
marines operating in the south At
lantic.
Base in Cuba Suspected.
The navy believed, Mr.. Toch as
serted, that the Germans had a sec
ret base on the north coast of Cuba.
adding that rich German firms in
Havana were VIGOROUSLY aiding the
central powers" and that there were
more German spies and propagan-
dists on the island than in the Unit
ed States" II
Mr.. Toch declared the army did
not take kindly to camoufage at
the beginning Of the war;" and said
that he had great difficulty" in
convincing army officers of the
necessity of camouAaging fortifca-
tons adjacent to navy yards.
Prior to the war Mr.. Toch gained
a reputation as a comouheur by
lowering the visibility of the forts
at the Pacific entrance to the Pan
anna canal.
