Sparks
Ries and Launtz managed the
games at the Northern in Sparks. The
two men left the city Saturday night
for Washoe Lake, intending to spend
yesterday hunting ducks and return
last night. All was well until o.
clock in the afternoon when, as a
flock of ducks arose from the surface
of the water, both men fired their
shot guns. Ries was only about ten
feet in front of his partner, when
Launtz' gun was discharged, the con-
tents striking Reis' directly in the
forehead.
Refs fell dead. LauntZ, Mortified
at the terrible occurrence rushed to
the assistance of his friend and COM
panion but Ris was past all need of
aid. Launtz quickly notified other
sportsmen some distance away, or
what had happened and the body was
carried to the Ophir station.
Ries was a native of Michigan, 35
years of age. He is survived by
wife, four children and an aged moth
