DIES DEFENDING HER BABES.
PROBABLY TOOK WITH HER INFURIATED
FATHER AND ASSAILANT.

Pfttsburg Jan ia CHASTITY discovery was made
at 1910 o'clock this morning when some neighbors'
hearing cries in the home OF Vincent Nenceisick, a
Pole at No. Spring Alley. broke open the doors
Mrs VenceIsick lay beside her bed, her face and
head almost crushed beyond recognition dead
Three little children their heads and bodies covered
with cuts and gashes. and the husband, Nencesick.
almost dead. lying on the floor.
1t appears that Vencelsick came home intoxicated
last night and assaulted his wife with rail cutter
The first blow inflicted ugly cash on her shoulder
and knocked her down, but she was on her feet
again In an instant. and with such weapons as she
could find in the she defended herself. The
three children were asleep in one of the beds. and
the brutal father rushed to the bed and raned blow
after blow upon the sleeping little ones. The sharp
edge Of the cutter hacked the children in frightful
manner and the hospital physicians say that there
Is very little hope of their recovery. .
The attack the children infuriated the wife,
and with "A knife In each hand she sprang at her
husband and stabbed him number of times. He
managed to get in some blows. Seeing that she was
becoming weak he gave her a shove, and as she
staggered back brought the cutter down with all
his force crushing her skull, and she fell to the
floor dead
BY the time he had killed his wife Vencelsick was
exhausted He sank the floor and lay there
through the night unable TO move. The moans of
the children this morning and one of them crying
was what attracted the neighbors.
Vencelsck, IL Is said. not married 10 the
woman whose name Rosa Lock strange
man who was found In the house by the police was
locked up. He refused to talk
