The Princeton union., 1909-10-14
A. A. Schultz,

The Union has received the fol-
lowing obituary from Milaca:
Friends and relatives of Adoniram
A. Schultz were saddened at the news
of his death at Baynesville, Mont, on
sOctoberel. Death was due to heart
disease. Because of, deficient tele-
graph service Mr.. Schute's people
we're not notified in time to have the
remains brought home, but appropri-
ate memorial services we're held in
the Milaca Congregational church on
Thursday afternoon last.
Adoniram Ammi Schultz was born
at Florida, Montgomery county, N.
Y, October 20, 1854. At the age of
eleven he moved with his parents to a
homestead less than mile from the
present site of Princeton. He lived
there for nine years, then moved to a
home northwest of Princeton. At the
age of q he married Mary Croft.
Seven children we're born of the union,
five of whom survive him. Mrs.
Schultz died fifteen years after her
marriage. Seven years later Mr..
Schultz married Mary Anderson.
Her one child, Mary, now eight years
old, was born three weeks before the
mother's death.
Mr.. Schultz was always kind and
affectionate father, and a loving son,
faithful in his duty to his family.
Two brothers, one sister and his aged
mother also mourn his loss, as do his
large circle of friends throughout the
community.

DESERTED CHILD;
IS in TROUBLE.
Frank Davis, colored, is In Jail charg-
ed With Desertion, But Plead
ed Not Guilty This
Moring.
THE OFFICIALS INVOLVED
County Attorney, Superintendent Of
the Poor, Police and Superior
Court Magistrate
Interested.

Frank Davis, colored, was arraigned
before Judge Mcnamara in the super
ior court this morning to answer to
the charge of desertion of minor
child, complaint being brought against
him by his wife Irene He entered a
plea Of not guilty and was returned to
jail in default of 5000 bond. His arrest
occurred Saturday evening on war
rant served by Officer Fuqua.
The grand jury Of the November
term Of the district court, the SUPER
intendent of the poor, the police mag
istrate and police headquarters have
dipped generously into the case OF
Davis during the past fe>s weeks. His
case was reviewed by the grand jury.
Fred Korschgen has been beseiged by
the mans wife and the police have
been called upon to make the arrest.
Now it is up to Judge Mcnamara.
Mr. Korschgen blames the mother
OF Davis for, great deal of the trou.
BILE. After the grand jury has taken
up the case no indictment was return
ed against Davis because he promised
to give his wife four dollars every
week and there was work in sight at
the time. Since then 1t seems there
has been delinquency in the pay
ment.
Also according to the superintend-
ent of the poor Mrs. Davis claims that
she has no place to live; that the
mother of her husband. who claims to
own the house at SGT South Thir-
teenth street has refused to allow her
to remain there and she is thus with
out shelter. She is a mother OF one
child, which is about one wear OF age.
'rne case is one presenting several
entanglements which officers are max
ing an effort to unwrap.

The property on South Twelfth

Agnes Hennemann was not sold to-
Gay for delinquent special tax, al
though Judge Bank Granted temper
ary writ of Injunction. Paul Luedke
sold the property during the course OF
the hearing and before the court had

will be annulled.
The application for temporary in

The firm OF McManus and Tucker made
by the above named owners was
heard today by Judge H. Bank Jr., in

The case will come up for final hear
Ing at future date.

Defendants attorney argued that the

oeer
They deny that the crushed rock
placed on the street was not placed in
accordance with the contract and
allege that the sand cushion placed
over the crushed stone was in kind
and quantity as required by said con-
tract, denying that there is ..ot more
than " inches and that any fraud
had been perpetrated. They also allege
that the screenings were wet and
