Fred Wise, Eleven Years
Old, Hits Eddie Kaiser
With Fatal Results.
FOUGHT OVER MARBLES
Trouble Occurs While Lads Are

Especial to Lake County 1imes.) }

Especial to Lake County Times.)
A post mOrtem examination was held
this morning on the body of Eddie
Kaiser to determine the cause of death.
1t was asccrtained that death was due
to clOt of blood which had formed on
the left side of the brain. The cIot
was as large as walnut. Peter Kaiser,
the father of the dead boy, now wants
to have the boy who was responsible
for the death of his son arrested, but
whether this Will be done or not de-
pends upon the corOner's verdict.
Crown Point, March 21.-As the re-
suit of a boys fight over game of
marbles, Eddie Kaiser, aged Is years,
was struck on the point of the jaw
by Fred Wise. II years old, the injury
resulting in the Kaiser boys death
last evening at 7:15 o'clock, two hours
after the quarrel.
Edward Kaiser, who is the son of
Peter Kaiser, a Crown Point black
smith, was playing a game of mar
bles with Fred Wise, when a dispute
arose about some point of the game
and the two soon became involved in a
fight. During the melee Wise struck
the Kaiser boy on the point of the Jaw
and knocked him down, rendering him
unconscious. Frightened at what he
had done, Fred Wise seized the limp
and PROSTATE form of his companion
and endeavored to assist him to his
feet.
Knockout is Complete.
The Kaiser boy. however was com
pletely paralyzed by the blow and all
efforts to revive him were without
avail. Help was summoned and the un-
conscious boy was picked up and car
ried to Charles Esshiger's saloon and a
physician was hastily called.
An examination indicated that the
boy had been badly Injured and blood
flowed freely from the mouth and nose.
The fight occurred about five o'clock
and from that time on he was uncon-
scious until his death which occurred
at 7:15 p. m.
The Wise boy had no Idea that the
fight would result as 1t did and the ia
tai blow which he struck could not
have been premeditated. The outcome
Of the fight was a terrible shock to
Wise himself as we'll as to his COM
panions who saw the affair.
No Arrest Unless Coroner so Orders.
No arrests have been made and 1t is
not likely there will be any unless the
coroner should order il.
Both or the boys were carriers for
the Chicago Daily News and the Jour
nal and the fight occurred at the de-
pot while they were waiting for their
papers to arrive. Eddie Kaiser, the
unfortunate victim OF the blow was
bright boy and quite a favorlte with
the patrons of his newspaper route. He
was an expert bowler and had won
several prizes in contests this winter
at the local bowling alleys
The sad occurrence has cast a gloom
over the whole community and much
sympathy was expressed for both the
unfortunate victims parents and the
boy who unwittingly was responsible
for the death.

Berlin is once more terror-stricken.
Today the fend killed one little girl

While the police was searching for

The harmonious sounds of the tea.
kettles are produced by steam bubbles
escaping from beneath thin sheets of
iron fastened close together nearly at
the bottom of the kettles. To produce

Pretty Hard to Stump the Right Kind
of American Boy.

When Wilbur Nesblt, author or
THE Gentleman Ragman," was a boy
he lived in a small town in Ohio, and
he and his brother one summer con-
cluded that they would establish
themselves in business as paper-hang'
ers. The lads were well liked and had
plenty of work.
One week they were given the con-
tract to paper the ceiling of store
room. The ceiling had never been
given a white coat of plaster, but
was smooth-coated with the brown
mortar. The boys found that the pa
per would not adhere to the brown
mortar because the sand In 1t pulled
off and let the paper fall. The owner
OF the storeroom had hardware
store a few doors down the street.
Wilbur seuntered into the hardware
store and bought ten boxes of black
headed tacks, then strolled back TO
the place where his brother was con-
templating the bothersome ceiling. A
consultation was held in undertones,
the doors and windows on the street
were soon obscured by shades, and
the boys resumed work.
That evening the paper was ON tne
ceiling, and pretty paper 1t was, too
In the design were innumerable dark
spots, forming the stamens OF gorge
GUS flowers.
When the hardware man paid the
boys for the work, he said:
"But what the dickens did you &c
with all those tacks?"
First slowing the money away II
his pocket, Wilbur exclaimed;

the ceiling with them! Library Cos

Patten. Me-, July 30.-Horace Tur-
bell, a queer old character who lived
in cabin twelve miles west of here,
died this week in a coffin he built
for himself and was buried, at his re-
quest, in grave he dug and lined
with stone more than 20 years ago.
Over the grave was placed stone
marker the man lettered with his
name and the date of his birth at odd
times when he wasn't making living
shooting and trapping.
Tarbell became a squatter 25 years
ago In district then plentifully sup
piled with moose, deer, bear and
smaller animals, and made quite a
comfortable living selling furs and
moose heads. He had little to do with
other trappers and came to the village
only when he wished TO sell his furs
or buy traps, ammunition and groceries.
He was taciturn, but on several oc-
casions he declared that he could fore
tell his death by two weeks.
Three years ago, party of sports
men, who were storm bound in the
woods, took refuse in .TarbeIls cab

lanes Leiser of Moral Loses Ten
Dollars While Enjoying Himself
In West Marion.

James Lesser, pipe line mechanic
of Moral. filed an affidavit in may
.or's court Monday night against
William Massie, charging him with
petit larceny. Lesser alleged that
Massie had stolen $40 in money from
him while they were carousing about
in the vicinity of hotel Nordica about
G o'clock last evening.
AT the hearing this morning 1t de-
eloped that Massie had taken Leis-
er's watch and some silver money
from his pockets while they were
drinking together at the hotel Nordica
bar. Later when Lesser was boasting
to his associates that he had plenty
of money, Massie grabbed a pocket
book from his hand, which contained
$40. Upon the last offense Lesser filed
the affidavit. Roy Cubbison, who was
with Massie was also arrested, but II
was disclosed that he was not impli-
Gated in the theft and he was later re-
leased.
AIassie, at his first hearing, pleaded
not guilty, but later changed his plea
to guilty. The mayor gave him thirty
days work house sentence. but later
changed 1t to a ten days jail sentence,
owing to the fact that Massie is a
cripple, having but one leg. Massle
WAS arrested and fined ahout a wpelt
ago on a charge of drunkenness.

WEEDS and
TELLS ALL
Woman Marries Former
Husband, Then Tells
Who She Is.

Central City, s. D., Jufy 80. Mrs.
Mary J. Cook has just been married to
John S. Dick, a weif-io-do Black Hills
miner, and Immediately after the GER
lemony confessed 90 him that she was
his former wife, the wife who 20 years
before had applied for and obtained a
divorce from him in Montana. Dick
had not suspected that the woman was
his former wife, but he was glad to
learn that she was, and they are now
enjoying wedding journey together
TO the Pacific Coast.
Dick came to the Black Hills from
Montana, 20 years ago because of the
trouble he had been having with his
wife, and soon after he learned that
Mrs. Dick had obtained divorce.
Two or three years after she OBJ
tained the divorce he learned that
she had been married to Elihu e.
Cook.
Two years ago. Dick met his former
wife, then a widow, in Portland, Ore. +,
where they were visiting the expo
sition. They had not seen each other
for 20 years. She had changed her
name and he did not recognize her.
She recognized him, but did not re-
veal her identity.
The old flame of love was rekindled
In her breast and she set out to win
back the husband she had 20 years be-
fore divorced. Not letting him know
who she was she accomplished her
purpose, and when they were united
in wedlock she told him her secret.

SWARM OF BEES
A S The CAR
Passengers Escape Without
Being Stung.
t@IiS$
South Bound c. D. & M. Car the
Scene of Unusual Occurrence
Near Delaware.

A swarm of bees made 1t ex-
tremely interesting for the passen-
gers on C.. ID. & M. car just
south of Delaware Sunday morning.
On the farm of F. B. Karl the
honey had been removed from four
hives and the bees were real angry
and hunting for trouble. just then
the south bound ten O'Clock car
rounded the curve, and as ii passed
the bees got real active.
Into an open window about ST.
652 of the little fellows jumped and
then began to execute a war dance.
The air was literally filed with bees
and the passengers presented a
unique sight as they tried to get
under the seats in their efforts tc
escape from the bees.
Then as suddenly as they ap
peared the swarm departed. OF the
thirty people in the car not a per
son was stung. A number of th'
passengers were from Marion.
