died at $50 o'clock Sunday night.
Nichols bad pcddled II beef in
Stanton Saturday and went home
with a jug Of Harrisonburg whisky
and became violent during the night,
choking and beating bis wife and
threatening to kill the whole family.
His son undertook to hide all the
firearms, and as he was trying TO get
away with gun his father seized It,.
In the scuffie the gun was discharged.
Il is not known whether the boy dis
charged the gun intentionally. and he
does not seem to know himself.
Nichols leaves widow, three daugh-
tiers and two sons.
The community feels greatly relieved
at his death, as all The noighborhood
stood in constant dread OF his butcher
ing season, which seemedI to have q
fascination for him. At that time ne
usually became unbalanced.
Officers OF the hospital went out
after the shooting and dressed the
wound, expecting to bring him back
to the hospital, but saw it was too late.

he should live Is hours after 4 load OF
shot had passed entirely through his
brain.

of strikers that had stormed the Miller
home He shot off one OF Miss Francis

In spite OF the heavy demand, the

limited amount Of coal. furnished good

now to be in excellent condition
The Washington office IS much graft
fled over the proven efficiency OF its
field force and the prompt compliance
with the sudden demand for water

saved many crops
Reports to the bureau from other
sections Of the west show that I'M
irrigated crops have suffered greatly
because OF unfavorable weather condi-
tons. while crops that are receiving a
water supply from irrigation plants are
in good condition.
