ROUGH PLAY AT IDA GROVE

Over Denison Foot Ball Team.

The foot ball team of the Denison
High School met with defeat at the
hands of the ex-state championship
team Of the Ida Grove High School
upon the Ida Grove grounds last Sat-
urday. The game as attested by
bystanders was dirty one from the
start. Ida Grove, although for five
years state champions Of Iowa and
thisyear having strong team, smart

by Correctionville and Des Moines,
endeavored to regain their lost reputa-
tion by piling up large score against

DEATH OF D. W. KENYON
Unfortunate Victim Of Over-Indulgence in al
cohoic Liquors Dies in Hawarden, Ia.

A number of Crawford county peo-
pie were acquainted with D. ". Ken
yon, whose dea'h took place last
month at Hawarden. Iowa 1t seems,
that while good worker, Mr.. Ken
yon was unable to control his appetite
for liquor and that while under it's in
fluence he died in the rear of saloon
at Hawarden. Crawford county rela-
tives went to Sioux county for the
remains and the remains were taken
to Woodbine for burial. Later suit
was brought in behalf of his minor
heirs against the Hawarden saloon
keeper and we understand that this
was settled for an amount something
over five hundred dollars. The case
is sad one and simply points to an
other home wrecked by whiskey.
Mrs. Bullock is again guest at
Colfax, Iowa.
