PIERCE MAN BADLY HURT
CONDITION OF OLE GoGLE rs
CONSIDERED SERIOUS.
STRUCK DURING FIRE TOURNEY
During the Last Rough Night Of the
state Firemen's Tournament, Pro-
teeting the Party Of Young Woman
He Received a Perhaps Fatal Blow.

AS a result of the rough times
which were enacted on the last night
of the Nebraska state firemens tour
nament in this city last Thursday, o.
Il. Cogle, young man twenty-three
years old from Pierce, nephew of DR..
Alden of Pierce, lies at the point Of
death in rooming house on South
Fifth street, this city.
With a wound in the top of his
head which does not appear to be sc.
rious, and suffering from intense and
almost unendurable pain almost four
days after the bruise, Mr.. Gogle, who
does not distinctly recall the manner
or cause of the accident is consid
cred by his physicians to be very
sick man.
Gogle, himself, believes that he
was struck by stranger and that he
fell to the walk, thus receiving the
blow which has given him terrible
suffering ever since.
How it Happened.
He, together with two other young
men and three young women, were
attending a dancing party in Mar
quardt hall. At midnight they left
the hall, went down stairs and start
ed for a restaurant to get supper. AS
they started out crowd of rough fell
lows, who had been at it all of the
evening, surrounded the young wo.
men. Gogle is thought to have waved
his arm at the fellows and to have
ordered them to go about their busi-
ness. At that one of the strangers
struck Gogle, he fell unconscious and
was taken into drug store for treat
ment. He has been ever since at
the rooming house corner Phillip av-
enue and Fifth street, belonging to
DR.. Bertha Altman.
Was a York Man.
| ii is alleged that the fellow who
struck the Pierce visitor was a mem.
Der of the York running team and
that he had struck several people
during the evening. He struck M
Kennedy at South Norfolk.
The companions of the wounded
man seem to know nothing about the
circumstances. They are able to give
no clear explanation at all.
The police do not know anything
about the circumstances. Whoever
the vicious assailant may have been
he has escaped the officers complete

DR.. Alden has been in the city sew
eral times since, attending to the case
of the young nephew, who is also a
nephew of Mrs. Lyman Miller, South
