SPENT ALL HIS MONEY,
NOW VERY SICK
ANTON ENGLUND HAS cry
sIPELAs AND THREATENED
WITH PNEUMONIA.

Anton Englund, the sailor and fish,
erman who was found TO be seriousl,
III with efysipelas in little room oyei
d saloon on Bond street, yesterday
became much worse and his condition
is now presumably almost critical. Lasi
evening his temperature was i04.s De.
grees. and the disease had spread over
a greater part Of his head and a por-
ton Of his face One 81 his eyes was
swollen shut. In addition to this the
man has caught dreadful cold which
last evening appeared 10 be on the
verge Of pneumonia So serious was
bis condition thar II was not deemed
possible to remove him.
Englund was up in Alaska with one
'of the fishery companies last summer,
and came back to Astoria IN the fall
with $500 In his pocket. Since then
he has worked good deal, but when
he was taken sick several days ago he
did not have a cent TO his name.
That is, he has spent from $500 to
perhaps 500, mostly on drink, In as
many months and now has to turn to
charity the moment he falls sick.
Englund's illness presents a prob
lem and calls attention to the fact
that the city has no adequate provis-
ion for the care Of INDECENT sick peo-
pie. except the pesthouse for contag-
ious cases like smallpox When the
police heard Of the case they reported
Il to the city health officer, and DIR.
Reames promptly made examination
and cased the fear OF the authorities
that il might be smallpox. Nothing
was known OF the mans circumstances
then, but yesterday il was learned that
he was penniless and was not receiv-
ing medical attention. The committee
on health Of the council, Of which Mr..
Karinen is chairman, at once took the
matter up with the intention of see
ing what could be done AT the hos
pital reluctance was shown to admit
the man because Of the great danger

al cases, but i was agreed TO admit
linn i he would have a special nurse
md his own physician. Then the fact
developed that there was no money to
'ay. The city has no funds to care
or such cases, and the county author
ties did not want to take the man be-
ause he was i'll within the city. Or. |
Seames was then appealed to for
ONE solution Of the problem and it
vas planned to take him to the pest
ouse, and to hire an attendant for
i'm there, but then it was found that
e is too ill to be removed. None of
is saloon friends would offer to ad-
ance money to hire nurse or doc
Or and thereupon Dr. Reames took
barge Of the case. II will probably
equire much attention for days. 1t is

xcept by direct contact with any one

UNCLE SAM GETS THEM
Boys Who Robbed Store at flag

James Corners and Earl Stade,
the young men who robbed the
Dorr Mercantile Company's store
at Magness last spring, and were
sentenced to three years in the
penitentiary at the recent term of
the independence Circuit Court,
we're pardoned by Governor DON
aghey last Friday.
Pardon was issued under rather
unusual circumstances. The boys
had been placed in the state re-
form school instead of the peni-
Tertiary, and there was some fear
that they might escape, as they
are of the class that have to be
kept pretty we'll under watch.
Postal Inspector G.. B. Miller
asked to be given custody of the
pair, on the ground that they were
charged with robbing the post of
flee at Zelda, near Cape Girardeau,
Mo. He asked that they be par
doned and turned over to the Fed
eral authorities to be tried on the
Indictment against them at Cape
Girardeau.
The request was granted and
Stade and Conner we're taken to
the Missouri city Friday after
noon by Inspector Miller.

JUDGE SIMMONS ENDORSED
Newark Citizens Commend Him
For Refusing to Grant License

The declaration of Judge II. S.
Simmons of Newport that he will
grant no more saloon license for
jackson county, has elected quite
good deal of comment from citi-
zens of this community.
Some condemn his action as I'M
democratic and unjust, but it seems
that very large majority indorse
his action and commend him for
the stand he has taken.
The following Endorsement of
his action was circulated on the
streets here Saturday and was nu-
merously signed:
TO the Honorable II. 5. Sim
mons, County Judge of Jackson
County,
I'VE, the undersigned citizens
of Newark and vicinity, desire to
congratulate you upon the stand
you have taken in refusing to grant
saloon license in Jackson county,
and assure you that good people
every where will commend your
course in following the dictates of
an honest conscience. As an act
for the good of humanity in the
great battle now waging between
Right and Wrong, we believe that
your action is one that should call
forth the admiration and COM
mendation of all good people ev-
erywhere. "
Just before the congregation
was dismissed at the II O'Clock
service at the Methodist church
Sunday morning, DIR. ". p. Law
ton offered motion that the con-
gregation give public expression
of thanks to Judge Simmons for
his declaration that he would grant
no more liquor license in jackson
county. The congregation unani-
mously adopted the motion, with
the request that their action be
communicated to Judge Simmons.

The weapon used was 3S cal

the left breast, barely missing the
heart, and blowing its way through
the lung, lodged in the backbon
Evidently the ball was intended to
reach her heart and cause instant
death, but it missed the vital point,
and at noon yesterday she was still
alive. She is in critical condi-
ton, however, and death is expect
ed to result at any moment.
Mrs, Gray has been in wretched
health and very respondent for
some time. 1t is said that she had
contemplated the act of self-de-
struction for some time, and close
surveillance had been kept upon
her by the family in order to pre-
vent the fatal step. Tuesday ev-
ening while the family were at
supper she procured a revolver
and shot herself.
She is about thirty years Of age
and has husband and three chill

WALTER BATSON SHOT
Citizen of Lower Oil Trough Shot
Saturday Night by j. p. Ellis

Walter Batson who lives near
Elmo was shot and painfully
wounded Saturday night by j. p.
Ellis, the weapon used being a
shotgun, and it is reported that
50 shot took effect in Batson's
body.
DR.. Z. G. Dorr went down from
Batesyille Sunday morning and
extracted the shot and dressed the
injured man s wounds. 1t is re-
ported from Elmo that the wounds
are not considered dangerous, there
being only one wound of serious
nature, that being in the abdomen.
There is another report, however,
which seems to be we'll founded,
that Batson is dangerously wound
ed and may not recover.
Details of the trouble leading
up to the shooting are hard to OBJ
tain, owing to the fact that all
parties concerned regret the af-
fair 1t seems, however, that
some parties went to Ellis home
a night or two previous to the
shooting to see woman who was
working for Mr.. and Mrs. Ellis.
1t is said that their conduct was
such that Ellis forbade its repeti-
ton. 1t is not known whether
Batson was one of the parties
present on that occasion or not,
but this or similar trouble, it is
said, led to the shooting
No arrests have been made, and
it is reported that Batson says he
does not blame Ellis for shooting
him. Both men are married and
have families.
