NEWPORT DEFEATS
O’NEILL BALLISTS
The O’Neill ball team went to New
port aggregation of ball players. The
por aggrigation of ball players. The
O’Neill players received a severe
“trimming ” The boys w?re late in
reaching the grounds and as a pun
ishment the Newport bunch would not
let them workout before the game.
Manager Kersenbrock did not send
the first team to Newport but substi
tuted with a first-class team composed
of part of the first team and a number
of other extra good players. John
says that he figured that the team he
sent was plenty stong enough to win
from the Newport boys taking into
consideration the fact that the New
port team played here recently. John
was wrong, the fellows up west were
in perfect condition to handle the best
of them and the sight of the boys that
appeared upon the diamond caused
them to lose their heads, to a certain
extent.
After the battle was over Newport

KIRWAN’S BAD EGG

The luring propensities of Mike Kir

bait, is rapidly being discovered by
the followers of Isaac Walton. A few
days ago Walter Warner received the
following letter from a party in Cen
ter City, Minnesota, to whom he had
mailed two of the Bad Eggs:
“Enclosed find check for the two
Bad Eggs which just arrived. Fishing
not any too good here. I caught a

MRS. ANTON SOUKUP.
Mrs. Anton Soukup died at her
home four miles north of Page, Ne
braska, about noon last Friday, follow
ing a short illness.
Mrs. Anna Kolovratek was married
to Anton Soukup on Aprli 7, 1923. She
conducted a grocery business in South
Omaha prior to her marriage to Mr.
Soukup. •
The funeral services were conducted
from the home at 2:30 o’clock Sunday
afternoon, conducted by Rev. L. R.
McGaughey, of Pape. Interment was
made in the Page cemetery.
As the conditions surrounding her
death were somewhat unusual, Dr. O.
W. French, of Page, who had charge
of the case, decided that an inquest
should be held to determine the cause
of her death.
County Attorney Julius D. Cronin
impanelled a jury Saturday and after
hearing considerable evidence adjourn
ed the hearing until today in order
that the stomach of the deceased might,
be sent to Lincoln for a chemical
analysis.
The evidence submitted shows that
Thursday evening she became ill and
Dr. French was called. She seemed
much better the following morning
but about noon she became seriously
ill, Dr. French was again called but
she was dead when the doctor arrived.
The deceased has expressed a violent
temper at different times, it is stated
and according to witnesses she has
made the statement that she would
kill herself.
A sister of the deceased, Mrs. An
tonia Sterba, of Omaha, maide a state
ment to the coroners jury tA the effect
that her deceased sister always had a
very bad temper; and could not get
along with anyone. She had been pre
viously married but could not get
along with her husband. At one time
she went back to her old home in Bo
hemia, and remained there for
seventeen years; when she came back
she came to live with her but they
could not get along on account of her
violent temper; on one occasion she
became so violent that in order for the
doctor to administer a hypodermic it
wa3 necessary to tie her in bed. The
sister expressed the opinion that the
deceased was not in her right mind.
The following is the report of the
coroner’s jury after having completed
its hearing this afternoon
“That the deceased died from effects
of arsnic either administered by her
own hand or parties unknown.”
Signed:
PERCY GRASS.
CHARLEY GRASS.
IX T. MURFIN.
GEORGE FINK.
H. G. ASHER.
H. A. TROWBRIDGE.
The following is the report of the
state chemist, C. J. Frankforter:
“We tested for arsnic and found
relatively large amounts. We are of
the opinion that arsnic must have been
taken, probably in the form of the so
called “white arsnic” which is an oxide
of arsnic and exceedingly poisonous
and very corrosive to mucus mem
branes. It is possible the lead arsnate
contained more or less of this oxide of
arsnic. The large and deep burns ab
solutely proved the presence of a cor
rosive poison.”
The county attorney is continuing
the investigation to ascertain whether
or not the deceased took the poison
herself or whether it was administered
to her by someone.

is in good condition.

relatives that reside near Venus, re
turning home Sunday evening.
The Savidge entertainment at
O’Neill was represented from this

Corn is making rapid growth and
will need one good rain about the 15th
of August to make the crop assured.
As a rule, fields are free of weeds.
Your correspondent visited some
fields of oats in Willowdale and ad
joining townships that have the ap
pearance of a normal yield. Average
above normal.
Leslie Wertz and RayShellhartwent
to Norfolk Sunday for a visit with
Arthur Wertz, who is taking treat
ment from Dr. Campbell at the Luth
eran hospital.
Lysle Phillips returned home Satur
day from Chadron, Nebraska, where
he attended summer school. We are
informed he is employed to teach the
Knoxville school.
Mr. Parks and family, of Afton,
Iowa, visited at the home of F. W.
Hendrick last week, returning to Iowa,
Friday. He reports corn two weeks
late. Oats good crop.
The'Yhreshing machine will soon be
in evidence. Those that have rye will
have cheaper and more economical
feed than 9flc corn, but it should be
ground to give satisfactory results, so
I am informed by those that are feed
ing it.
The usual acreage of alfalfa will be
sown this season in this part of the
county. It is a valuable crop, that
experience has proven to those that
are feeding and using for pasture, es
pecially for hogs. It appears un
nessessary to feed tankage when feed
ing or pasturing alfalfa for hogs.
