Unknown Man Assaults Wife Of Farmer
and She May Die.

McCook, Neb., May 23.-An un-
known man made a murderous assault
on Mrs. Claude Spaulding, wife of a
young farmer. No one was at home
at the time but the three-year.old
daughter of the woman. The room in
which the crime was committed bore
every sign of a desperate struggle,
the assailant using large steel wedge
and a hammer. The woman's skull
was fractured and other terrible
wounds were caused about the head
She has not regained consciousness
and the probabilities of her recovery
are regarded as small.

Duncombe turned and faced him

"Old man." he said, "here's the truth:
SO far as man can be said to have
lost his heart without rhyme or rea-
son, I've lost mine to the girl of that
picture"
Andrew drew quick breath.
Rubbish. Georger' he exclaimed.
"Why. you never saw her. You don't
know her"

swered, "and yet I have seen her pic

His friend laughed queerly.
"You, George Duncombe, in love with
a picture. Stony hearted George we
used to call you. l can't believe it.

you like: have seen Il picture of the
woman whom If ever / meet | most

to be honest You have told me that
you care for her. Therefore have told
you these strange things. Now do you

Again Andrew laughed, and this time
his mirth sounded more natural.

"You mean it,"

LINCOLN MEMORIAL SERVICES.
w. J. Bryan Delivers Address to tn
Typographical Union.

Lincoln, May 27,-William Jennings
Bryan delivered the address at the
Lincoln printers memorial exercises.
Mr.. Bryan spoke extemporaneously,
dwelling on the value of ideals and the
beauty of fraternity. Referring to the
Typographical union, whose members
he praised as class of tradesmen of
the highest intelligence, he said in
his early life he was opposed to fra
ternities. but between the age of TWEEN
ty and thirty his views changed rad
ically and he saw in the fraternal
spirit the broadcast kind OF brotherly
love. Memorial services were praise
worthy, he said, in that in a way they
removed the pangs of earthly parting
and brought to the participants a
realization of the hereafter.

the contest and much enthusiasm was

The Marionites were up against too

half. lack of condition against the
hardened Ashland players lost the
game. The locals have not played
for several weeks and the pace set
by Ashland finally beat down their
defense. In the first period Shaw
started the scoring by driving the
first goal in five minutes and ten
seconds. Fletcher, of Ashland, drove
two pretty ones in the next three
minutes of play and although the
remainder of the half was hard
fought neither side could score.
The second period was an exciting
one. the play was rough and Mar

every department. In five minutes

period and tieing the score:

LANCASTER EASY.

Marion and Lancaster, the two
new recruits, in the Ohio State
League, battled yesterday afternoon
lat the local rink, Marion coming out
victorious by score OF five to
two.
There was large holiday crowd
'on hand to witness the game and the
locals were given plenty of encour-
agement by the crowd. Shaw played
a brilliant game at second rush,
driving four of Marions five goals.
He got the first one after six min
utes of play. Three minutes later
Turner, of the opposition put one
lin the cage and in the remaining six
minutes OF the game Shaw drove two
more. In the second period there
was considerable rough work Shaw
Gagged the sphere twice in fve min
utes of play. Stamper got Marion ,s
last point In the third period after
a minute and thirty five seconds OF
play. Turner. minrTe later, scored
Lancaster's last point. Pretty work
by the men in the goals prevented
urther scoring.
The local fans were highly encour-
aged over the showing made by the
Marion team in its second game. The
team work was very much better
and the men handled themselves bet
ter on the floor. With little more
work 1t is believed that the Runts
