hiah School Football Men Expected to
Report for Practice Tuesday.

ball squad will get an early start lliis
season, the men having been called Tor
practice Tuesday evening. The team
will get started a week or two earlier

this year, because Of the early opening
of the school year.
The prospects for good team are
bright this year. Several of last year,
team are available, including Gabel-
Man, Patton, Ray and Roscoe Packer
Bigalow, Wilson, and others. The
freshman bunch is a likely looking
squad and the followers of the game
expect them to develop into a fast
bunch. The team will probably be
light one but should be fast. Carl Vor-
hes, the new athletic manager, is busy
with the preliminary work Of making
the seasons schedule.

SUICIDE IN TAMA.

Anton Zeke Found Hanging in Barn
Brother in Prison.
Tama, Aug. 29.--Anton Zeke far
mer living on a leased farm about six
miles south of here. committed suicide
by hanging himself in a barn. Some
three years ago his brother, Fred Zeke
had an alteration with one Chamber
lain at feed barn in Tama, which re-
suited in the death of Chamberlain
from a knife slash in his throat. Zeke
was tried and found guilty of man
slaughter and IS now serving a ten
years sentence in the penitentiary
1t is thought that the troubles OF his
brother so affected Anton Zeke that he
became temporarily deranged. No other
reason is assigned.

On one occasion friend was en-.
gagged in a lawsuit in regard to some
land a few miles from Utica. He
held the land at a high price. Dur

as a witness, to prove how valuable
the land was. The deacon was sworn

five years ago to insure his admittance

Annable alleges in his complaint
that it was understood the minister
was not to dispose OF the land until
after the soul of Annsble had reached
heaven. Annable goes on to say that
he was forced to take trip South for
his health. and that upon his return
he found that the minister had dis.

ends his complaint by saying he has
ascertained there is another method
to get TO heaven, and that this method

is sounded every evening from Sep

which hung in Chertsey Abbey tolled
for the funeral OF Henry VI, murdered
in the Tower of London and hurried
to Chertsey to be buried without

or saying"
The abbey was also the scene OF
the romantic legend which relates
how Blanche Heriot. to save her lover
Neville, nephew OF Warwick the King
maker, condemned to die at sundown,
climbed the curfew tower and held
the clapper OF the great bell. The
story, always popular locally, attained
wide fame when Mr.. Clifford Harrison
embodied it in his poem The Legend
of Chertsey" Since then reciters'
audiences have probably had their fill
