MURDER
% -.

Our: citizens we're somewhat startled
last Wednesday by the announce ment
that Mr.. just living two and a hall
miles north of Golden Gate had been
foully murdered the. day before BY
two Polaski boys, his neighbors. Cor
oner Laudenshlager was summoned
and at once repaired to the spot. AS
our Golden Gate correspondent, in an
other column, gives an account of the
affair we merely add few facts as
brought out by the coroner's jury.
Rudolph Just, who is the only living
person, except the Polaski boys. that
was present and saw the affair, testi-
fed that his father and himself, went
out into the corn field on Tuesday
morning, Dec. 9th, and were loading
corn when Paul and Richard Polaski
came along a path, and his father ask.
ed them for what reason they took his
corn marker away. The Polaskt boys
then came up to his father with clubs
in their hands, sticks of wood about 3
feet long and as thick asa mans arm,
and struck him on the top Of his head
and knocked him down. He then
went to the assistance of his father
with a pitch fork, when the Polaski
boys took the fork from him and
knocked him down with it, and then
struck his father on the head with the
fork twice. The Polaski boys then
left and Rudolph helped his father in.
to the wagon and took him home
where, with the assistance of his sis
ter, he put him to bed. The injured
man never spoke after being taken
home and died about o'clock that at
ternoon. The affair occurred about IL
O'Clock in the forenoon. Mr.. Herman
Just was fifty years old.
It appears that the Justs and Polas
kis are close neighbors but in order tc
get onto the highway Mr.. Just had tc
pass over few rods of Mr.. Polaski's
land, or else take long roundabout
way. Mr.. Polaski demanded 1925 an
| nual rental to allow MIR. just to pass
| over it. The matter was brought be
fore the town supervisors and they
appraised the land used by Mr.. Just
as road at the rate of $50 per acre
$3.50 being the amount due Mr.. Polas
XII at that rate. Mr.. Polaski refused
to accept that and Mr.. Just subsequent
| ly deposited $500 in the hands of thu
| supervisors subjected to Mr.. Polaski's
order. Thus matters stood and went
! on from bad to worse, and finally cul
minated in Mr.. Just's death.

4 Black Pearl

ABOUT year ago an ill-clothed and
needy looking Jew went into q jewel
er's shop in the Herrengasse, at Pesth,
drew q small paper parcel from his
pocket, unfolded it carefully, and took
from it . little black object. Holding
it up before the jeweler, he asked:
"What is that worthP''
After scrutinizing it very closely for
some time, the jeweler replied:
That IS worth great deal. 1t Is
black pearl, one Of the greatest rarities.
l have seen many gray one, but never
before black one. It has one fault, .
small breach, which shows that it was
formerly in 3 setting; but its value is
very great. Where did you buy itp''
The Jew answered:
"A gentleman wishea to leave it with
me in pawn. and I want to know what
it is worth
The jeweler said he could not ex-
actly tell, the thing being such . rar-
ity. -
"May lend two hundred gulden
upon itp'' asked the Jew.
Three times a. much, at the very
least, =" replied the other.
"Wil you not buy the pearlP''
No, indeed" said the shop-keeper.
''There is but one firm In the monarchy
which would have an opportunity OF
selling it again; that Is the court jew
eler, Biedermann, at Vienna"
The Jew left with the pearl. Next
day he appeared ct Biedermann's shop:

Since my last communication to the

morning as Paul and Richard Polaski,
two boys aged is and Is years respec.

they were intercepted by Herman Just
and his son Rudolph, the latter a lad OF

stealing a corn marker, which the
boys stoutly denied. just, having
an OK whip in his hand, com
menced to whip the boys withl it.
which they finally took away
from him. The son Rudolph then came
to the rescue of his father with pitct
fork and commenced stabbing frs
Richard and then Paul. The Polask
boys soon got possession Of the forl
and with it knocked young just down
and then struck old just over the hea,
and fractured his skull. The Polask
boys then started home and soon afte
Rudolph Just loaded his father int
