ITALIAN IS INJURED
In an Alteration Regarding Entry
Room Taolazzi Gets Worst of It.

Egidio Taolazzi, aged "a, is in the
hospital very i'll as the result of a
little trouble Saturday between him,
self and the pit foreman, Ed SPAWN,
at the Ramsay mines, five miles west
of Oskaloosa. At first it was thought
that the skull was injured and that
the wound would prove serious, but il
is believed now that the man will re,
cover.
1t is alleged that the trouble arose
at the Ramsay mines just before re-
turning to this city on the miners
train. Ned SPAWN, pit foreman, had
taken an entry-roem from the young
Italian, who has been in this country
but a few months. The foreigner did
not understand why the foreman had
the right to take the room from him
and give it to another. 1t is alleged
that the Italian threatened to strike
the foreman, but SPAWN struck first.
A large plate of coal was thrown at
the Italian and it struck him on the
head. Not feeling he was injured the
Italian boarded the miners train and
came to town. 81.

AGEDLADY FOUND DEAD
Mrs. Elizabeth Buckler Pioneer Of
County Expires While at Work.

Mrs. Elizabeth Buckler, aged 81
years, was found dead at her home,
six miles southeast of Oskaloosa, at
$3.50 o'clock Friday evening. The
body was found lying in the yard meas
the corner OF the house, by men com
ing In from the corn Held The body
was still quite warm and death had
come only short time before the
body was discovered Coroner J. g.
Barringer was summoned and gave
direction for the disposition OF the
body. He went TO the Buckler place
this morning to make an examination
into the details of the case. Death
is thought to have been caused from
either heart trouble or apoplexy.
The old lady was suffering with
rheumatism and possibly the trouble
had reached the heart, causing the
sudden death.
Mrs. Buckler, aside from her rheu-
matte trouble, was in excellent
health and was unusually active for
one of her years. She was mentally
as active as she was physically, and
took keen interest in everything
that was going on. She went to the
school of the district after dinner to
witness the dedication of the Thirty
Third Iowa Flag and to hear the pro-
gram. She returned from the school
and was at work about the house and
in the yard. Her son, j. w. Buck
Ter, and grandson, Irwin Buckler, were
at work in the corn field. The grand
son came to the house at four.thirty
o'clock for some water and he found
his grandmother busting about the
place and in unusually good spirits.
He talked with her several minutes
about the flag day celebration and
she gave no sign of the near approach
OF death.
The men returned from the field
about an hour later, at five-thirty
o'clock, to attend to the evening
chores. ]. w. Buckler, the son of
the old lady, preceded, and went TO
the house. He was startled by see
ing his mother lying on the ground
at the corner of the house where she
had fallen. She was lying in nat
ural position and was apparently UNI
harmed, seeming more like one asleep
than one in death. He summoned
help and the other members Of the
family came quickly to his assist
ance. Neighbors were called and the
coroner was communicated with The
body was cared for and funeral an
nouncement will be made later.
Mrs. Elizabeth Buckler was the
widow of the late Harvey Buckler.
who died in 1893, They came to Ma.

we're among the first pioneers of the
county. They have lived all their
lives on the Buckler place southeast
Of Oskaloosa and the old home has
been cared for by the sons and the
grandsons down to the present date.
The family is one of the best known
in the county and the death OF the old
lady brings keenest sorrow to the en-
tire community.

What If all of the people in Oska-

cigars made in OskaloOsa. What a

would find its way back into the

for the explosion OF the gasoline.
There was no fire OF any kind In the
room where the explosion occurred,
and it is believed that the fire was
communicated in some way from the
furnace room, but how this could oc-

being only three BLOCKS distant, and
two streams were laid. But by the
time the water was thrown the frame
portions of the building were mass
of flame and the fire had caught the
machine shops of the Ideal Heating
Company on the east side of the alley
The intense heat of the fire practir

new machinery.

small damage was sustained in the
loss of merchandise in cleaning. The

in this department. At the time of
the fire there were several hundred
dollars worth of mems and womens

building.
