DEAD MAN BY ROAD
LADIES DISCOVER THE LIFELESS
CORPSE OF JOHN RIHACEK.
Mrs. H. A. Dobbin and Mrs. Walcott
Find Body Lying Close to Public
Highway; He Lived With His Som
in-Law, Joseph Smrz; Apoplexy
No Doubt Was Cause of Death;
No Inquest.

John Rihacek, a farmer living four
and half miles south of the city on
the Mapleton road, who resides with
his son-inlaw, Joseph Smrz and fam
lily, was found dead early yesterday
afternoon, near the barn and close to
the public highway. The body was
found by Mrs. III. A. Dobbin of this
city and Mrs Wolcott, who lives in
the vicinity. Mrs. Dobpin was re-
turning to her farm, with Mrs. VOL
colt, at about 2:30 O'Clock, and noticed
Mr.. Rihacek apparently asleep under
a tree, near a post hole. He did not
look exactly like man asleep, as his
features We're set and as pallor over
spread his face, so StheS ladies con-
cluded to stop and investigate Upon
approaching the man they found that
he was dead, and they at once mott
fled the family.
Coroner Kennedy Summoned.
The body was taken a.to the house
and Coroner Kennedy was notified, and
went out early in the evening, but
after making inquiries decided that
death was from natural cause and
that no inquest was necessary.
Mr.. Rihacek had been working hard
all day, digging post holes, and ate
a very hearty dinner and resumed his
labors. At about two O'Clock he went
into the house and got cup of coffee
and lunch, and then took up his work
again. He had been digging deep
hole near a stump and not far from
a tree, and apparently had been over
come and lay down under the tree
and passed away peacefully. Doubt
less, leaning over to dig down into the
hole caused a hemorrhage and apo
pleXy.
Came Here From Austria.
The deceased was native of Aus
tria, and was seventy-fOur years and
nine months old. His wife died a
year ago Sept. Is, and he had sicne
lived with his daughter. Only two
children survive him, Mrs. Smrz and
Mrs. John Janda, the latter of Chi
cago. The Rihacek and Smrz families
came from Iowa eighteen months ago,
and made many friends in the neigh
borhood, and the death of the old peo-
pie causes much sorrow.
Funeral services will be held Fri
day at a. M at st. Peter and Paufs
Catholic church.

THREATS OF A LAW SUIT
FARMER WOULD BRING ACTION
AGAINST THE STATE.
Flock of Prairie Chickens Persist il
Destroying His Grain; Writes
to the Governor.

st. Paul, Sept. 8.-Joseph Jackman,
a farmer living near Fergus Falls,
threatens to sue the state of Mime
sofa for damages as result of in
juries done the grain on his farm by
prairie chickens.
OF course Mr.. Jackman couldn't
really sue the state, for the state is
immune from damage suits; but he
thinks he has cause for complaint, and
he states his position in a letter to
Governor John A. johnson. The let
ter, mailed week ago, was received
in the governors office today. As to-
day is the first day of the chicken
season, Harvey Grimmer, the COVER
nor's executive clerk, is of the opinion
that the onslaught of chickens on the
Jackman grain have been repulsed with
a great loss of life on the chicken
side.
Mr.. Jackman's letter to the governor
follows:
"Dear Governor: [ am in trouble
about what to do with six or seven
stroying my grain. l can't shoot them
off, as it is against the law to shoot
them, and L understand that they be-
long to the state. Now, l don't want
the state to turn loose its property on
my farm to destroy my grain any more
than L want one of my neighbors to
turn loose his property on my farm.
II should like to know if the state
lis liable for damages done by its prop
erty, the same as private individuals
The game warden has appointed depu-
ties to keep me from shooting the
chickens until the gun club season
comes, and all the dudes from the Pa
cifc to the Atlantic can turn loose and
shoot the chickens raised on my farm
eff l have raised six or seven coveys
of chickens, who do they belong to-
me or the slater"

WASCATT MAKES GOOD
MANKATO LAD PILING UP A FINE
RECORD IN SOUTH DAKOTA.
Newspapers of the State Have Nice
Words to Say of His Work On
the Slab.

VIII Wasgatt, the baseball twirler,
is making a great record in South
Dakota. He is in great demand by all
the leading clubs of that state. A few
days ago while pitching for Redfeld
and against Aberdeen he shut out the
latter bunch the score being l to 0.
During the state fair at Sioux Falls,
Sept. l3 to Is, he will be on the slab
for one of the prominent teams. He
expects to return to Mankato on Sept.
20.
During the season Wasgatt pitched
for the Waterfowl team, and The Pub
lie Opinion of that city speaks of his
slab work as follows:
"While the boys were there and
over with the stick, and drove one
twirler to the cemetery early in the
game, the wreath of victory should
be placed upon the noble brow of Was
gait, an Aberdeen pellet pusher. Know
ing that the 500 were on the warpath
prepared to tOmahawk the whole tribe
up hereabouts, the Aberdeen lad was
summoned to assist, and he was there
Betty, until the very finish. His should
have been shut out, but there came
a tear in the infeld patchwork, sad
rent, and through it one aborigine rae
ed over the pan to the solemn beating
of the tom toms of his enjoyed tribes
men.
"Only three hits did the 500 get off
Wasgatt. Nine with uplifted bludgeons
were laid out on the moss by the sting
of his curve and control, while but
very few were able to place the pill
outside of the infeld. Wasgatt was
good and is good. 1t is said that he
is not to blame for living in Aberdeen

SMALL BOY AFFLICTED
CASE OF INFANTILE PARALYSIS IN
MANKATO.
Three Year-Old Son of James P. Hayes
Stricken; His Right Side Is
Paralyzed.

NIankato has a case of infantile
paralysis, but whether it is the infec-
tious kind that has claimed many vic
tins at Winona, st. Paul and other
places, the attending physicians are not
sure. DR.. Bell of Minneapolis, who
was in the city day or so ago, but
did not see the child, thought that it
was a case similar to those that have
caused so much coDsternation elsewhere
The victim is the three year old boy
OF James P. Hayes, residing on Rhine
street The lad has been sick for four
or five days, and is paralyzed on the
right side. 1t is suffering from infama-
ton of a portion of the spinal cord.
DR.. Hill of the state board of health
recently wrote paper on infantile
paralysis, and ascribes the cause OF
the Infection to street dust and says
that it is more common in the country
towns and away from paved and
sprinkled streets.
