While working at the top of thir-
ty-foot telephone pole, Thursday af-
ternoon, Audley Crouch, lineman,
was thrown to the ground by the
breaking Of his belt, receiving serious
injuries about his head and body,
though no bones were broken. 1t is
feared internal complications will
result.
Because Of the failure of DR.. F. E.
Vance of Eddyville to hold an autop-
sy over the body of Mrs. Emily Reed,
who was found dead in bed the morn
ing of June /, and ascertain beyond
any question the cause of death, the
Iowa state board of health has direct
ed County Coroner S. Z. O'Neill to
exhume the body and proceed with
an autopsy. DR.. Vance, who is Mrs.
Reeds son-in-low, signed the death
certificate, giving as the cause Of her
death ptomaine poisoning, upon the
claim that she was in the habit OF
cooking a piece of meat and allow
ing it to remain in the kitchen sever
al days before eating, which caused
the meat to become putrid
Constantin Muth Alderman,
young German actor and Mrs. Agnes
Koch left Davenport for Chicago af-
ter securing marriage license which
it is believed they thought they could
use In Chicago, no wedding apparent
h having taken place. Alderman is
a dashing young man of 81, who has
been playing leading roles in the
German Stock company at Daven-
port, and Mrs. Koch is the wealthy
widow of p. T. Koch and confesses to
81 years. Their intention to wed
was kept a secret from their friends,
but Mrs. Koch's intimates knew that
young Alderman had been paying
ardent court to her for some time.
The prominence of Mrs. Koch has
made the elopement the talk of the
community.
Judge Benson issued an injunction
restraining Rev. Henry LUZ of st.
Johns German Lutheran church of
Dubuque from further officiating as
pastor Of his flock. Mr.. Luz Is ordered
to quit the pulpit and pastorate and
other church property he is occupy
ing and that he turn over the keys
at once. Signers of the petition of
injunction are Conrad Prottenger,
associate pastor, and a number of
trustees and deacons. The injunction
grows out of the refusal of Luz to
vacate the pulpit when ordered by the
synod president after hearing the
charges against Luz and which order
was concurred in by majority Of the
congregation. Against the orders OF
the congregation Mr. Luz continued
to preach. He will be arrested If the
attempt is repeated He refuses to
talk.
