DIR. Echternacht had died suddenly;

moved to st. Thomas hospital with a
broken leg; and that Miss Thomas had

We're Immediately forthcoming.
Before Phillips had found out the
real truth, however, he had conveyed
the intelligence of DR.. Echternachts
death to his mother in Mount Carroll.
III. Mrs. Phillips gave 1t to the news
papers. The Evening Mirror printed
the following:
"Dr. Harry Echternacht, dentist of
Marshalltown, Iowa. died suddenly at
his home last week. He will be re-
membered by many Mount Carroll
people as having visited his friend,
Professor Frank Phillips, in this CITY,
about two years ago. Had he lived
until next Christmas he would have
paid another visit to his friends in
this city"
The people of Mount Carroll will
doubtless be startled to see Echter-
nacht's ghost about Christmas time
as the doctor is still planning to eat
Christmas turkey with Mr.. Phillips.

FIND STOLEN GUN
Shot Gun, Stolen From Alb
bott & Sons Store, Found Under
Barn at 210 North First street-Did
Not Know It Had Been Taken.

A shot gun, supposed to have been
stolen with other firearms from the
Abbott & Son store last Friday night,
was accidentally found this morning
under a barn in the rear of the w. E.
Crinklaw residence, 210 North First
street
Mrs. Crinklaw was in pursuit of q
chicken, which took refuge under the
barn when she found the firearm.
kneeling to see where the chicken had
gone, Mrs. Crinklaw saw the gun. Be-
ing afraid to touch it she called her
husband, who notified the police. The
shot gun was returned to the Abbott
store, where it was identified. Up to
the time of it's return it had not been
missed, but check Of the case where
it and its mate had been kept, proved
that it had been out of the store for
several days. 1t was cleaned and oiled
and turned over to the police for keep
ing.
The shot gun is twelve gauge
Remington automatic. and is valued at
$50. 1t had been taken apart, probably
to make it less conspicuous in carry
ing.
The police, who suspect Owen Ball,
who is being held for this and the
Hoag robbery, are working on the the
Dry that Ball was carrying this gun
in the direction of his home when he
hid it, either thru fear of being de-
tected under the light of the street
lamps that he would have to pass to
reach his home or else because it
proved inconvenient to carry: Where
the gun was hid was on one of several
routes by alleys that might be taken
by person on his way from the Alb
hott store to the Ball home. The po
lice also contend that Balls arrest the
rext morning prevented him from get
ting the gun from it's hiding place.

He Was Indicted Jointly With
Bert Pell For killing Gift
ford Man
BUCK CANNOT BE FOUND
Fact of His Indictment Made Public in
Court When Effort Was Made to
Have PeII Case Continued-Motion
for Continuance Denied-Case Set
For Trial Friday.

Give Buck, familiar figure of the
"levee" district, a hanger-on about sa-
looms, and a young man who has fre-
quently appeared in police courts, is
wanted for the murder of John H
Lepley, of Clifford, on the evening OF
July 20. Buck was indicted Jointly
with Bert Pell, who is in Jail, but has
never been arrested He disappeared
soon after Pell was arrested. His in
dictment was made public in the dis
trict court this morning, when an eff
fort was made to have the Pell case
continued over the term.
The motion to continue was over
ruled and the case was set for hearing
on Friday of this week. The motion
to continue was based on the allesa-
ton that Buck and Roy Delap, known
as Skinny" Delap, and James
Thome, all Of whom are important
witnesses in the case, could not be
found. All Of these We're with Buck
either at the time or just prior to the
time Lepley was killed
In an affidavit, made by Pell, in
support of the motion, he says Buck is
supposed to be working in the co,ln-
try near Plankington or Huron, S. d.
Peil's Defense.
There is every reason to believe
that the statements made in Pel!s
affidavit in support Of the motion,
in which he outlines what Bucks t,es-
timony would be, were he here, will
be Pell's defense.
This affidavit says that Pell, Buck,
Lepley in the BARLEY saloon. That
Pell and Lepley got into an alteration
over the payment of the drinks, and
that Lepley called Pell vile names and
then struck him. They were separated
by Pelps friends, and Lepley left. Buck
told Pell that he ought to be ashamed
of himself and that he ought to make
up. Buck told Pell to go get Lepley
and bring him back. Pell did so, and
in addressing Lepley he held out his
hand, Lepley struck him, and Pell
struck back, knocking Lepley down.
His head struck on a rock imbed,1ed
in the cinders and 1t seemed to stun
him. Pell tried to lift him up, but he
was so drunk he could not, and twice

time his head hit the stone again. loell

MAY READ OWN OBITUARY..

Unusual Opportunity Afforded Mar
shaIltown Man as Result Of Joke.
1t isn't often that a man is given
the opportunity Of reading his own
obituary in newspaper, but such is
the lot that befalls DR.. Harry Echter-
nact, of this city, as result of what
was intended as joke on the part Of
friends.
Fl One Of DR.. Echternacht's closest
friends is T. Frank Phillips, a teacher
in the Duluth, Mimi, high school,
formerly in charge Of the science de-
partment Of the Marshalltown high
school. Among other close friends here
were Mr.. and Mrs. Charles L. Duffield,
and Miss Agnes Thomas. Since Mr..
Phillips return to Duluth last fall he
has neglected to write to his former
correspondents here, and this led to
the preparation of the joke.
Miss Ella Roberts, Of the Arson
school, was prevailed upon to carry
out the method adopted to get Philips
to write. She penned what appeared
to be a hurried letter full of bad news.

ASKS COUNTY TO PAY

Board of Health Decides to Certify
Bill For Care Of Detention Hospital
While Not Under Quarantine to
County - Anxious to Test Respons-
Utility. !.
The board of health Monday night,
voted to certify to the county auditor
the bill of $40 per month, filed by A. N.
darkness, for the care of the detention
hospital during the time when the hos
pital is not under quarantine for con-
tagious diseases. The county once went
on record as refusing to pay for any
cost of the maintenance Of the hospital
when there were no guarantees.
The board of health finds itself up
against this proposition The hospital
has to be cared for. 1t will deteriorate
unless some one is placed in charge.
The building would constantly be the
prey of mischievous boys were not
some one in authority in charge to
protect it. The building must be kept
warm during the winter months, ready
upon moments notice for the recep-
ton of patients. The board of health
argues that in view of these facts, If
the county bears the expense of main
tanning the hospital during guarantees,
it is necessarily bound to maintain the
property and protect it as public
property, or at least defray portion
of such expense.
A similar case is now pending in
Cerro Gordo county. between the board
of supervisors and the Mason City
board of health, and the outcome of
that case. which has been taken into
the courts, will be watched with local
interest
