WINS BOX FOR
PASSING show
IN Bee CONTEST
Shows Name Can Be Made
4,354 Times From Words
and Letters In Adver-
tiSement.

An expenditure of 1917 hours
time and the invoking of a system
and an adding machine. resulted in
Meri w. Reese, 32l6 Myrtle street,
winning the firt prize offered by
The Bee in "The Passing Show" ad-
!. vertising contest. As a result of
his efforts Mr.. Reese was yesterday
given an order on the Boyd theater
! tor stage box, good for eight per-
sons, at the opening of the show
Sunday night.
Mr.. Reese's answer shows that
the words "The Passing Show" can
be made 74,354 times out of the
words and letters appearing in two
pages of advertisements in the
Thursday evening edition of The
Bee.
Edith Weinberg of the Ell Beudor
apartments won the second prize,
two orchestra seats, for the show.
Olive King Larson, 702 South Thir-
ty-sixth street, won third prize Of
two seats.
Clara Olsen, Bancroft apartments,
Council Bluffs, Ia, c. A. Rothery,
139 North Thirty fifth street and
Lenna NJ. Roberts, 554 Omaha Ma
tional bank building, won fourth,
fifth, and sixth prizes, respectively,
two balcony seats each.
Mr.. Reese, counted the number
OF times that each letter in the three
words appeared in each advertise
ment. He found that the letter "g"
appeared 81 times. With IA letters
appearing in the three words he
then made use of the various COM
binations finding that 5,311 COM
binations could be made with the
one letter and then multiplied that
number by the number of letters in
the three words arriving at his sue
cessful answer.
"The Passing Show of 1919" will
appear at the Boyd theater for one
week beginning today.

FEAR CHINESE
LOVER MISSED
ORIENTAL MAID
Omaha Citizens May Intervene
In Mercenary. Loveless
( Marriage.

The finale of the Oriental ro-
nance, involving a conflict of Orien-
ta1-Occidental ideals, which, for two
short intervals, was centered in
Omaha, has not yet been learned.
Whether Flu Wing, young Chinese
Columbia university student, arriv-
ed in San Francisco in time to res
cue his love, WI Sac, from an url-
happy marriage, willed by her mil
lionaire father in Pekin, China, is
the subject of many spirited com
versations in Omaha.
All efforts by railroad officials to
learn the outcome of the affair have
failed.
Fear She's Out Of Reach.
II 10 feared that the little Chinese
girl, who had been attending Well
lesley college to become like the
Americans" has been spirited from
the reach Of her lover, by the trusty
guard Of her father, who was sent
to the United States to take her to
Pekin. 1t is pointed out that they
may be hiding in the Chinese quar-
ter of San Francisco, waiting for
the first boat to China.
The first steamship to sail is the
Nippon Maru, of the Toyo Kisen
Karsha lines, which leaves San
Francisco for Pekin on October 80.
The next boat is the Fushima
Maru, of the Japan Mail Steamship
line, which leave Seattle, Wash. on
November 2.
During his short stop in Omaha,
Flu Wing declared that it would be
almost impossible to stop the mar
riage Of WI Sac to the man OF her
fathers choice, once she had reached
China. Her father had never left
China. he said, and would not under
stand the ideals of America, which
make love the paramount issue in
marriage.
Omahans May Intervene.
So interested have. many Oma-
hans become in the case, however,
That an attempt will be made to stop
the marriage. The matter will prob
ablv be discussed at the next meet
ing of the Omaha Women's club, it
il said. at which time means OF
averting the marriage will be dis
cussed.
In the meantime I. Kahn, presi-
dent Of the Megeath Stationery Co.,
father-in-law of Mrs. Kesheva Deva
Shastri, former Omaha girl, who is
In Pekin at the present time with
her husband, DR.. Shastri, will make
an effort to stop the marriage, in
case the girl 10 really forced to sail
for China.
"Dr. Shastri seems to have great
influence in Oriental affairs" said
Mr. Kahn, "and believe if ! write
him he can do something to stop
the affair. I suppose Flu Wing, the
girls real lover, will sail for China
Il he does not find her in San Fran
cisco. His appearance on the scene,
combined with the influence of DR..
Shastri might convince the girls
father that love should take its
course, / believe"

Wright Joins Holmes
Motor Car Sales Force

After spending = week at the
Holmes Motor Car factory at Can
ton, O., H. E. Wright has decided
to cast his lot with the Holmes dis
tributors of this city.
Wright has been in the automo-
bile business at Washington, D. C.,
and has been attracted by the Won
derful showing made by distributors
of automobiles in the middle west.
In speaking Of the Holmes Mr..
Wright says that he believes this
car represents an advance in motor
car construction which is not sur
passed by any car on the market
today. The Holmes has an air
cooled meteor and the number of
features in its construction have
been copied after airplane designs.
A number of features which are not
found on any other car are found
on the Holmes and among those
familiar with the air-cooled motor
this, car is growing in favor almost
beyond the fondest hopes Of the
manufacturers.

COAL OPERATORS TO USE
ALL POWER TO PREVENT
PRICE RAISE, SAYS ONE

St Louis, oct. 3O-The operators
will use all of their power to prevent
any individual among them from in
creasng the price Of coal, according to
a statement made by Thomas l.. Brew
ster. head of the coal operators state
committee here today Mr. Brewster
also stated that. SO far rs is known,
the attempts TO take advantage of the
present situation to boost the price Of
coal will De few.
After the Withdrawal Of the price
control, the prices of the higher grades
advanced slightly and the lower grades
declined considerably, and the general
average of prices was below those in
effect at the time the price control was
withdrawn" said Mr. Brewsted.
THE appointment of the fair price
committees in the various s,ates has a
restraining influence on prices We
continued. and the weight ~ the opin.
ion of the operators will be thrown,
against any possible individual attempt
to charge high prices"
Mr. brewster made the above state
mont in answer to the statement that
the miners had made claims that the
operators had been permitted to in
crease coal prices although the war
time wage agreement was held to be
still binding.
Il think that President Wilson's pro
posed proclamation placing maxi
mum price ON cuai Will put u complete
stop to any desire on the part Of any
individual to protiteer in coal" added
