Last evening shortly before 9 o'clock. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Heil re turning to the house from their chores and milking, discovered the body of their seventeen year old daughter. Miss Oolda. lyiug on the flcoi of her room in the home, iu a dying condition. i"ne Beil family are residing on the farm of Mrs. Clara Davis, a few miles northeast of Union, having moved there a few months ago from their old home south of this city. There can be no explanation given as for the unfortunate girl taking her life and the Indications of the wound point to the fact that the death was self inflicted. The young lady had retired to her room while the parents were prepar ing to go out and complete the milk ing and a few chores around the home and there was nothing out of the ordinary In her conduct. It was some time before the pafents return ed to the house and when they en tered the house the mother heard the moans of. the daughter and rushed to the bed room only to be shocked by the sight of the almost lifeless body lying on the floor while the spark of life was slowly fading away. Death came in a very few minutes after the discovery of the body was made. The young woman was shot through the breast and the bullet had clearly found it's mark as she died within a very few minutes of the shooting. The flesh was powder burned show ing the weapon had been placed close to the body when the shot was fired. The tragedy came with heart breaking force on the members of the family and the reason seems hard to place as it was evidently not premeditated as the young woman it is stated had arranged to go to a f,anc- later in the week with the young man with whom "she had been keeping company ..and as the relations of the family bad been most pleasant it was difficult to find any reason that might prompt the rash act. The deceased lady was very pop ular among the young people of the community in which she has made her home and her untimely death has cast a deep sorrow over the eomrnun ityin which she has made her home since coming to Cass county. The young woman was idolized by the parents and their grief at her death is heart-breaking and both the mother and step-father are almost prostrated. The message of the death was re ceived here by Sheriff Quinton who with County Attorney Cole, drove to the Beil home, but decided that an inquest would be unnecessary as the cause of the death was self evident. The funeral will be at the home at 2 p. m.. Thursday, Rev. W. A. Taylor officiating. Burial will be at the Horning cemetery. FOR SALE A ten-horse power Fairbanks en gine, good as new.
