was the best yet held by that organ
ization. A large crowd was present
and was we'll entertained. The ball
game between Elllnwood and Larned,
the two fastest teams in the central
section of the state, was the best ey-
er seen at Ellinwood. The score was
one to nothing, the winning score hav.
Ing been made in the last half Of the
tenth inning. Herriott was in the
box for Larned, and Hassler, late
With Little River, was in for Ellin-
wood. This gives Ellinwood the IN.

Suicide si one SehsuiIef.

Otto ScheuAer, a prominent south
side farmer, shot himself yesterday
morning, at bis farm, a mile south Of
town. The particulars Of the tragedy
as brought out at the coroner's In
quest, are as follows.
Mr.. Scheuher went to the field
with bis team to work as usual yes.
terdsy morning. Nothing out of the
ordinary was noticed in his conduct
by his family. and his wife came to
town to take the children to school.
1t seems that sometime during the
morning Otto came back to the house
while everybody was away and pro.
curing shot gun went out to the
tool house with the determination to
take his own life. From all that can
be determined by appearances, the
desperate man sat on a bench and
placing the muzzle Of the gun to the
front Of his body, in some manner
discharged it. An anvil in front of
him gave probability to the theory
that be succeeoed In pulling the trig.
ger by pushing it against the small
end OF the anvil. The charge enter.
ed bis stomach, and ranging upward
tore large hole in his body. The
clolhing had caught fire, but the
blaze, after burning away part of the
unfortunate mans shirt. went out Of
its own accord.
When dinner time came be was
missed, search was instituted and
he was found dead on the bench Of
the tool house with the gun by his
side. The coroner was sent for and
a jury impaneled. After viewing the
body and hearing all the evidence of
the family, the jury returned a yer.
dict that the deceased met his death
from a gunshot wound inflicted by
his own hands.
The unfortunate man left nothing
to show why he committed the des.
perate act, but from remarks he lad
dropped to friends in the past, it is
believed that domestic and financial
troubles had unbalanced his mind.
The funeral will take place tomor.

We owe our readers an apology
for being late this week, and wish to

Hence our delay.
