Cresco Accepts Pity Motive for J Slaying, Suicide 1 ISo Inquest Into Tragedy Which Rocked Town; Funeral Services to Re Held Today. Bresco Feb. 1!>.—There will be no tuque.. jday into Cresco'.* triple tragedy. The law has accepted the neatly typed confession of Capt. William E. Dtftin, 45, Cresco war hero, that he had slain his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W, D. Dunn and taken his own life. This was the statement today of Khprtff .1. C. Ebert and County At torney W. 1.. Barker. They have probed the shooting and hold In their possession the death notes. Pity was thd keynote today of all discussions of dhe tragedy that shocked Cresco when Dunn shot down his 65-year-old mother, killed his 75-year-old father and then blew out his own brains. Few Harsh Words. There were few harsh words today for- the ex-soldler. Cresco, while it shuddered, thought today it under stood. The slayer's mother was slowly dy ing from canrer. Hopeless invalid ism had descended on the father. "I could not see them suffer; I could not see them dying by inches. T ami-doing this for their own good. 1 anf." sacrificing my own life for them,'' was the word Dunn had left. He went with his parents through th^-valley of death. That In the eyes of Cresco, proved his sincerity. 'rtie town knew of the son's remarkable attachment to his mother, the devo tion of years, the money spent trying to save her from a lingering death. Triple Funeral. A triple funeral will be held to morrow and burial will be In the game grave. Dunn was a West Point graduate and a captain in the Nineteenth Field artillery in the army of occupation.

They are Frank and Joe Sprietzer, 2204 Harrison street, arrested Tues day for alleged owning of a still, mash and liquor. They are still at the South Omaha city jail, for they were bound over Wednesday to the district court. But bars not not a prison make. Sometimes they make a saloon, and Frank and Joe are the leaders of the South Omaha barroom quartet. So they led off Wednesday night with a song about Kentucky. “My Ken tucky Belle, r Love Her Still.” was the name of it. It's a mashy song. Frank is tenor and Joe is base, but not as base as police think. They put a lot of spirit into the song and dis tilled sweet harmony. Two drunks got drunker than before, and joined in the song. Four other drunks formed n pro tective alliance and tried to drown the opposition in the liquid notes. Hut the crowning effort was the ditty about a little white mule. It went like this. "Oh, mule, you look good to me, "You’re clear as ice, "But you make the mice, • “Chase the tomcat n up a tree.” Defense Seores in Stokes Case Judge Rules Testimony Based on Affidavits of Agents Is Inadmissible, _______ • By Associated Press.

Tepic, Nayarit. Mexico, Feb. 19.— With two sets of tax collectors be sieging the business houses and po-j lieemen contending for their posi -| lions by force, the citizens of Topic have appealed to President Fa Ilea to straighten out the tangle arising from the recent election. The administration that was in of fice prior to the election refuses to vacate to the side that claims victory because of alleged election irregulari ties. Not daunted by this refusal, the “outs” have set tip their* own presidents, or mayor, with a full set of officials and are attempting to take over the reins of office without officially receiving the key to the treasury. Since the inauguration of the dual administration, tax collectors from both factions have demanded pay ments and the business houses, through practice evolved of wisdom in the days of the revolution, have placated both sides by donations. This condition became unbearable and the leading merchants have now* refused to pay either faction. At this moment the “new” regime has scored a victory by having driv en all the “old” policemen from the streets by sheer force and “new'” p lieemen are holding their jobs through the rule of “survival of the fittest.” Tepic, which is the capital city of Nayarit, is the headquarters for con siderable American railroad building at present, as the completion of the Tepic la Quemada gap of the South ern Pacific dp Mexico is being direct ed from here.

Neuhau*. neurologist and psychiatrist, gave “A Psychia trist's Review of 'Sons and Lovers,’ by D. H. Lawrence." before the wom en's alliance at First Unitarian church \V ed nesda y a ft ernnon. "Most of you have probably heard Mr. Bailey’s series of sermons on the new psychology in which he made for u» the spiritual application of some of the facts and theories of this new science,” the doctor said. “Perhaps it is not known to you that the greater part—I might with justifica tion say almost all—of the discoveries have been made by psychiatrists— that is, physicians who practice in nervous and mental disorders. ‘‘You will perhaps make objection to the applying of the results of such studies to normal individuals, saying that as they have been obtained from the study of persons ill they cannot hold for normal men and women. But such an objection is not any more tenable in psychology than it is in physiology. Home Knvironmen.t “Those of us whose duty and priv ilege it is to minister to sufferers come to the conclusion that of all the situations in which the individual is placed, from the time of his birth to adult life—the family situation—his relation to father and mother is the most frequent cause of maladjust ment and of grave nervous and mental illness. "For the young child the mother is the one overwhelming personality of earliest days. From her he first learns how to express affection. Our mother is in the true sense our first love. "But soon education changes the attitude of the child. The former ideal adoration of the parent a little later becowes interwoven with immature fantasies of procreation. The girl as signs to the father some sort of a function with regard to her dolls, her children; just as the boy assumes for himself the father and the husband’s role in their games.” Freud’s Theory. The doctor gave a resume of Freuds theory of the evolution of love from the first maternal caress to the transference or the individual's allegiance to a self-rhosen mate, with which he finally steps out of the family circle. He told the women the reason some men are bachelors is an "inability to cut away from the infantile moorings" and some women are "old maids" be cause they "self-effacingly devote themselves to their fathers." "There are also marriages which are unhappy because the memory of one of the parents has not been »uf fieiently laid to rest,” be added. DIVORCEE REWEDS; DECREE SET ASIDE Why do judges get cynical? District Judge L. R. Day answered the ri'tcJtlon Thursday morning In divorce court when he »»t aside the divorce decree he had granted to Mattie J. Hark from her husband, Harry Clark. "Almost all of the young women who want divorces aay they'll never marry again,” said Judge Day. "Mrs. Clark was one of them. And now I find that she went to CouncH Rluffa and married again the very next day after T signed her decree. This, hy the -way, Is not only a reason why judges get cynical, but the reason why Mrs. Clark a decree was set aside.
