MORNING
From Monday's lially
The news of the death this morn

farth nt his heme near Aiynard, came
as a great shock to the friends andj
relatives in this community and who I
have known and respected .Mr. Wohl-;
farth during the thirty-nice years!
cf his residence here. i
Mr. Wohlfarth has been in failing
health for some trine but it was not
until the last three weeks that his!
sickness grew dangerous as his ail- j
ment was complicated with heart
trouble this followed about a week;
ago by cerebeal hemorrhage and
since that time he has been confined
to his bed fro the greater part of
the time.
William WohJfarth was a native of
Wurtenberg, Germany, where he was
born July 5. lhoT, and spent the
greater part of his younger years in
that locality coming to America and
locating at J-lattsmouth. Nebraska in
the year 1SJ. He at once engaged
in the carpenter trade as a member;
of a firm of contractors and also,
later entering the Burlington shops
where he was engaged in work for.
quite a long period of years, retir
ing from the shops some twelve years
ago when he took up farming as an
occupation and continuing in that,
line of work up to the time of his I
death. Shortly after lacitir.g on the'
farm Mr. Wohlfarth was deprived of.
of the companionship of
l:i wife
and s;n;e that time has with his
child"en kept up the home. Three
children, Herman. Otto and Freda
are left to mourn the passing of
this good man.
He also leaves one brother resid

figures in the various German soci-'
Hies of this portion of -the state and
was verp popular among those who ,
had the opportunity of knowing him
b-t.
The funeral services of Mr. Wohl

For several davs the friends of
John Cemey. a well known resident j
of the west pert ion of the city have;
had their suspicions that Mr. Cerney
had deserted the paths of single
blessedne-s and taken un.o himself
a helpmate to share his joys and1
sorrows, but their suspicions were I
not well enough founded to permit
them to openly express them and
they have been whiting a favorable
opportunity c give the newly weds
a serenade. It had beer, expected to
hae the celebration cn Saturday
1 ut th.1 leaders became eii'ected with
a l:?'Ie doubht of the advisability
and accordingly it was ptponed

crowd rssembleJ with all kinds of
musical and naise making instru
ments and proceeded to make Mr.
Ceriicy and bride think that truly
"SousaV band was with them. The
party of serenaders were treated by
the bride and groom and showered
the newly weds with their hearty
good wishes for the future years of
life before heir departure.

favor of the locals when the final
inning "was played out.
The game was very interesting
barring the eighth inning when a
dispute between the visitors and um
pire Kelly threatened to cause ceas
ing of activities and the Eagle team
gave one of the best exhibitions of
baseball playing that has been seen
on th local lot this season, as the
infielders took all kinds of chances
and fielded like a house afire. Pete
Herold. wiio officiated at short, was
in his test form and nothing was al
lowed to escape him, while Hilt at
second and Newman and O'Donnell
at third and first were able to check
any of the hits of the visiting team.
The game ran along very smoothly
up to the fourth inning with neither
side showing any signs of scoring
but in the fourth the Eagles threa
tened to score. Wolff had been retired
when Herold placed a safe hit over
short and was followed by O'Donnell
who repeated the performance of

inninsr by two h'.gli flies that were
nailed by the visitors.
In the seventh the locals opened
up in a manner that looked good for
more runs, as Mason the first man
up secured a 'two saeker but that was
as far as he got, James and Winscot
retiring through the strikeout route
and Wolff grounding to first.
The eighth inning gave ihe vis

scene that came near marking the
sudden end of the game. The first of

I erly a well known resident of this
jcity and a thorough follower of the
J sport game, came in yesterday for a
few days' visit here at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. John Cory, parents of

interested in all lines of athletic
sport and has continued his activi

proved such a drawing card in the
state last winter.
He has'since quit the Lamson in
terests and lias just made application
to the state for a license as a referee
under the new state boxing law,
which has just gone into effect. Mr.
Brantner should make an able referee

well fits him for the work and there

To the general public the work

many cases the order has suffered

WILLIAM BARCLAY
IS SERIOUSLY ILL
State President cf the Eagles Taken
Sick This Morning; At Early
Hour, Suffers Much. Pain
From Tuesday's ii!y.
William Barclay, state worthy
president of the Fraternal Order of
Eagles, is confined to his bed today
as the result of a very severe attack
of what seems to be either gall stones
or appendicitis, the exact nature of
which has not been determined. Mrs.
Barclay was awakened this morning
shortly after 4 -o'clock by the groans
of her husband who was apparently
suffering a great deal of pain until
the arrival cf a physician to look
after his care.
The patient was in such shape
that it was necessary to have him
given a hyperdemic injection to
quiet his pain and from then on un
til this noon he was resting in sleep.
The patient suffered a similiar at
tack some four years ago and at
that time it was thought that he was
affected with gall stones but as it
' did not. bother him further he was
net operated on and it is more than
"probable that the present attack is
a reoecurance of the same trouble.
His host of friends ar trusting
i that h may soon rally from the ef-
fects of his illness and be able to be
', up and around as usual, although it
may be necessary to have him taken
to a hospital for treatment.
STILL VERY SICK
Word "has been received here by
; Joseph arga from his wife, who is
. at Chicago at the bedside of her
