Close an Amusement Park Sunday
Has'Famly.

Council Bluffs. Aug. apparently
cFazed over religious matters, Ell

tile demonstration at the Lake Manawa
resort yesterday that officers found 1t
necessary to resort to arms and Yonn
l1er was shot and killed. He has wife
and two young children. Younker
came here only two weeks ago from
Joliet, ILL., He seemed to have notion
that he had mission to close the
amusement resort. He went to the
lake yesterday afternoon about l
O'Clock with a big revolver, and made
inquiries for the manager William
Byrne, asserting that he intended to
fix him. Officers disarmed Younker
and elected him from the grounds.
He went uptown, bought two more
revolvers,, one of them an automatic
shoulder gun, and returned to the lake
renewing his threats. This time he re-
fused to be disarmed. One officer had
him in custody, but Younker kept his
shoulder gun ready for business and
refused to give 1t up. Deputy Sheriff
Clarence Wollman tried to approach
but YounlSer warned him back at the
point of the weapon. Wollman drew
his own revolver and ordered YounkeI
to throw up his hands. The deputy
sheriff then fired shot that struck
Younker in the right shoulder. At the
same time four other persons shot and
at least one bullet was fatal.
