Kaufman, who as tho result Of her pre-
liminary examination on June 20 was held
for trial In the state circuit court on the
charge Of the alleged murder of Miss Agnes
PClreis. her l6-year-old domestic and who
admitted to bail in the sum of S25.O0O
by the state supreme court today, accom-
panied by their son Charles departed for
an unannounced destination. Charles Kauf-
mann only recently returned from Ohio
where he was attending college. The des-
tinstion OF the accused woman and her
husband and son is carefully concealed
from the public. It is thought, however
that they will proceed to some small and
remote place In which Mrs. Kaufman as
well as Mr., Kaufman can recover from
the severe nervous strain to which they
have been subjected during the past few

OF the girl for whose death Mrs. Kaufman
Is said to be responsible. by a strange coin
cidence, also have temporarily changed
their place of residence. Their home is
near Parkston in the southern part OF the
state, but they now have gone to the
home OF Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Schwartz,
who reside on a farm near Webster, In
the northern part of South Dakota. The
dead girl was a niece OF Mr. Schwartz.
Her parents will remain with the Schwartz
family for an indefinite period. 1t is
feared Mrs Polreis' mind is becoming af-
fected through grief over the death OF her
daughter and 1t was deemed best to re-
move her for time to new scenes In the
hopes she would recover.

ing, but Few su1er.

The collapse OF the landing at the Kursa al
at Lake Manawa at late hour last night
caused the serious II not fatal injury Of two
people and one person at least is missing
and It is thought she is drowned
At the time Of the collapse a large num-

warning the entire landing COLLAPSED.

platforms of the Kursaal at once COM
menced the work of rescue and for time
1t was thought all had been rescued. only
TWO Of the number were injured. Miss Lena
Rosenblum, employed at the Sixteen street
dy works, Omaha. was unconscious and at
the present time the doctors are working
with her. but have not yet succeeded in
restoring her to consciousness and II is
uncertain whether her injuries are fatal or
not
Miss Chamberlain, S14 North Thirteenth
street, Omaha, was taken across the lake
to the Manawa pavilion, where 1t was dis
covered her injuries were serious and a
doctor summoned. IL is feared her injuries
are internal.
Miss Susie Doerher, sO4 South Twenty
eighth street, Omaha, and her sister. Mel
lie, &76 Harney street Omaha, were stand
ing together when the landing collapsed
Miss Susie says she saw her sister in the
water as they both came up after the fall
but that in some way they were separated
and no trace of her sister Nellie has since
been found and she fears she has been
drowned.
While these are, all the casualties re-

have been drowned and the fact will moi
be known until they fail to appear at Their
homes .oday.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. P. Eastman, 2sl5 Douglas
street, were among the Omaha people given
an involuntary plunge in the lake. They
got away from the place as soon as pos
sible after getting safely to shore and were
among the first to return to Omaha OF th'
unfortunate ones.

suddenly It gave way" said Mr.. Eastman
"and about $50 persons were dropped into

eight feet deep. There was Immediately a
great deal OF excitement but by hanging
to pieces OF the dock nearly all were able
