The lowana atarted out with a rush
and played the locals off their feet dur
ing the first ten minutes of tha contest,
and finished tha half with the score

thejinilolng of tha 'tana ha lada for they

of seventeen polnta between them. Mull

advantage of feet t Inches.
All of ths Omsha five put up a fast
exhibition at times, but their playing on
tha whole waather erratic. During tha
first half, their team work went to pleoee,
allowing tha Kloux to score almost at

by the score of 4d to It,
For the first few nilnutrs of play Ames
contested fiercely and the game was filled
with sensational work. The? Huskers
seemed In better physical condition, how
ever, and completely denied their op
ponents with a bewildering aerlea of play
and team work at the opening of the
second half.
For the flntt fiflMn mlnntM nt the
game, the score waa practically tied all
of tha time. TheAgglea were weakened
by the loss of King, who had been Injured
in the Initial game In a badmlxup with
Haskell. Dalbey, who scored all of the
Aggies' points In the first halt, waa also
forced to retire In the second, having
exceeded the limit of personal fouls.
Toward the close of the first bait Gib

throwing, overcame the close lead of the
Aggies and the half ended IS to (. Ne

Bellevue showed up much better than

Woman Killed by .
1 Infernal Machine
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-A package re
ceived by Mrs. Grace Willis Walker In
an uptown apartment house, last night ex
ploded and caused her death almost In
stantly. The mystery of the affair hag
baffled the police. l
The woman, who was S3 years old, was
called to the vestibule of the apartment
by a messenger who presented her with a
good eiaed package and then hurried
away. She carried the package to her
apartment and as aha placed It on a table
it exploded with a loud report. Dr.
Charles F. Perkins, who was passing the
house st the time,' ran In to aid Mrs.
Walker, but ahe died In a few minutes.
The package contained dry batteries,
one of which waa driven Into the. woman's
breast near the heart. Parts of the
battery buried themselves in the walls
and celling of the roonfVhlle fragments
were blown through the windows so
cleanly that the glass was not splintered.
After several hours of secret investi
gation detectives arrested Charles M.
Dickinson, who geld he waa aa employe
of a motor company, and held him on a
technical charge of homicide for ex
amination Monday morning.
Edna Lamarre. a show girl, 15 years old.
who lived In the house, but waa oat at
the time the fatality occurred, waa held
aa a material witness.
Mrs. Walker, a widow, who was also
known aa Helen Taylor, tbe police say,
Uvea In a six-roam apartment on tbe first
floor of a house at MS West Bsvantr-eev-
enth street. When Coroner Feinberg was
summoned he found her face terribly dis
torted with tha left eye driven back Into
the head, a deep gash ever the heart and
scores of abrasions and cuts on tha body.
Coroner Fein berg's version of the ex
plosion after several hours Investigation
was that the woman waa Bitting in her
parlor talking to Dickinson when the mys
terious package waa delivered. It was
such a package as might contain MS ciga
rettes, about four and one-nan ny ten
Inches, neatly- wrapped In paper. It bore
the typewritten nddress:
"Helen Walker."
.,i.. M what waa left of the In
fernal machine showed that It had been!
Ingeniously constructed. There appeared
to have been but two of the dry batteries, j
one of which had been destroyed by the ;
exploeton. while the other was Intact.'
What also appeared to have been an Iron '
cylinder which contained thev" explosive
was found Imbedded In tbe ceiling, ui
rectly above tie body of tbe victim.
Dr. Perkins, who amvea at tnv mo
ment, found the woman am a
but nnxxwaeloun. She died a few minutes
later. The Janitor said be naa seen a
messenger boy ha a blue uniform leave
tha house a few sjstnnue oeiore uas sr
plosion occurred. He thought the box
might have been aenvereu ur um mes
senger. To delve Into the past of the dead
woman waa one of tba first efforts of the
police tonight, but neighbors seemed to
knew Uttle of her history. She had rented
the apartment only a tew weeks ago
together with the Lamarre woman. It
waa said, and they had appeared ta be
orderly tenants.
