NOSE AT BALL GAME
Prominent Webster City Woman In.
jured by Batted Ball at
Goldfeld Chautauqua.

Struck in the face by a batted
ball, Mrs. Ora Newman sustained a
badly fractured nose at the Goldfield
Chautauqua yesterday afternoon.
The ball was a high foul that des-
cended among the trees beneath
which Mrs. Newman and some
friends were sitting. The victim
looked up to see where the ball was
going to drop, and it struck her up
turned face.
Mrs. Newman had accompanied
Mrs. w. B. Kearns and Mrs. Jo-
seph Henneberry to Goldfield to at
tend the Chautauqua and witness
the ball game between Webster City
and Ellsworth. The game had pro-
crossed but two innings when the
accident occurred, spelling the rest
of the day for the ladies. The in
jured woman was attended by a
Go1dfieId physician and came home
in an automobile. Her
nose was fractured in two places
and in addition to this, she sustain
ed an injured eye. Her glasses were
resting on her shoulder and the ball
after striking her nose glanced down
and struck the glasses. Flying pieces
Of glass caused the wounds about
the eye.
Though both the eye and nose
are badly swollen today, the victim
Of the deplorable accident is resting
easily.

Mrs. Hans


Mrs. Flora Hays Hanson, Secre-
tary of the Young Peoples Branch
of the w c. T. T., addressed the
young people of the Fifteenth Street
Presbyterian Church last Sunday.
Mrs. Hanson's talk was of great in
terest and instructive. The speaker
said that the temperance movement
contains people of three classes
those with jawbOnes, those with wish
bones and those with backbOnes. Mrs
Hanson said that those of the wish
bone type are the people who always
wish the movement well, but never
do anything to further the movement
Those of the jawbOne type represent
people who continually talk temper
ance, but never put their talk into
deeds Those OF the backbone type,
however, are the backbone OF the or
ganization. Such people are always
ready and willing to put forth every
effort to spread the temperance wave
throughout the country. She gave
many valuable suggestions to the So
ciety for improving its work and ere
ating an interest.

P. G. M. Council, No. I, G. U. o. of
o. F., of New York, Sued.
New York City.

New York City.
This important case grew out of
the refusal of this Council to pay the
$50 death benefit due the estate Of
one of its deceased members The
facts were briefly these:
Ivan c. Davis, a member Of said
Council, died; and at the time of his
death he had been a member of said
Council II months, 3 weeks and 4
days. The deCeased's mother, Mrs
Sarah Davis, was duly appointed ad-
ministratrlx of his estate, and request
ed the Council to pay her the death
benefit Acting under the advice Of
the Subcommittee of Management, the
highest tribunal in said Order, said
Council fatty refused to pay It, on
the ground that deceased had not
been a member u months. Mrs. Davis
retained an attorney, and in Novem-
Der last filed suit in the City Court
of the city of New York against How
ard Y. Fry, as Treasurer Of the Past
masters Council, No I, Grand United
Order of Odd Fellows.
The defendant was duly served
with summons, but declined to ap-
pear in court, whereupon judgment
was rendered in favor Of the plaintiff
for $50 and costs.
On Nov. 7 last the court issued a
rule against defendant Fry, requiring
him to appear and make discovery
respecting the property of the defend
ant and judgment debtor. Defendant
Fry again failed to obey the order OF
the court and did not appear. On
Dec 2I, the court ordered defend
ant Fry to appear on Dec. p at 10
a. m, and show cause why he should
not be adjudged in contempt The
said Fry paid no attention to this or
der, and failed to appear; whereupon
an attachment was issued, and the
Sheriff of the County of New York di-
reCted 10 arrest the defendant, Fry,
and forthwith bring him before the
court to be dealt with according to
law. The Sheriff found Fry at his
work place, promptly arrested him.
and took him before the court Jan
10 1911. On hearing the case, the
court adjudged Fry guilty of con-
tempt, and ordered, inter ALA, that the
misconduct Of the defendant was cal
culated to, and did, defeat, impair, i'm
pede and prejudice the rights and
remedies of the plaintiff and judgment
creditor to her actual loss oI

Attorney King Wins the Legal Con-
test of the Elks.

Attorneys L. NJ. King and Benja-
min Gaskins on one side, and AttOr-
neys John W. Patterson and John +.
Collins, on the other side Of the Elks,
left this city last week for Richmond,
Va, to contest the right of Exalted
Ruler Wheaton surrendering the
rights OF the Elks and consolidating
the organization. 1t was a hot con-
test Messrs. Patterson and Collins
we're knocked out on every point.
The court said that he never would
have signed the order had he known
the circumstances; but both sides ap-
parently got together and brought him
an agreement or order but now he
finds that the entire transaction was
a fraud and illegal Attorney Pat
terson made some ugly charges
against Attorneys King and Gaskins,
which the court ignored. The ques-
tiOn now to be settled is. which lodge
has the right ritual? Many of the
members of Columbia Lodge favor
changing of the name of the Elks to
the Ancient Order of Egyptians The
treasures in both lodges are about
exhausted. Messrs. King and Gaskins
were victorious. and a banquet IS to
be given in their honor, and a large
fee will be presented them.

the costs of this motion; that the de-
fendant pay to the plaintiff or her
attorneys, on or before noon, Jan. Ii.
1911, the sum of SIO6.28, together with
$40 costs of this motion; and that
upon the defendants failure to make
payment as herein ordered that the
Sheriff commit him to the county jail,
and there detained in close custody
until the sum of SII6.28 is fully paid,
or he is discharged according to law.
Prominent members of the Order
in New York City say that the claim
would have been paid had not the
Subcommittee on Management ad-
vised Fry and the officers of the Coun-
Gil not to do so.

OUR LIBERATOR.

Lincoln's National life is past.
But his memory IS yet alive
1t was he that gave us rest,
And our liberty to strive.
Lincoln was noble, good and true;
His mandates we commend.
Such men as he now are few,
But they will rise before the end.
His foundation seems to tremble,
But justice holds the bond,
And makes the foe shake and tremble
To see the Negro come like men,
Although he has been deserted
By those that were his friends,
With this he is not discouraged,
And will strive through crooks and
bends.
Others have gone up this old way,
With adversely on every side,
But now they hold their own,
And for their own do provide.
God bless the name of Lincoln
We will love him and defend;
His name shall never wrinkle,
For the laws he gave will stand.
Now let us watch and ever pray,
And together let the Negro stand :
For God will open up the way,
And lead us by His hand,

THE WHIPPING POST.

Delegate Burlington, of Huntington
has introduced bill into the House
of Delegates providing for establish
ing a whipping post in West Virginia
The measure provides for the public
lashing of all wife-beaters.
There's a whipping post in hades with
a thousand red-hot thongs;
Twas built to avenge the faithful
wives for the many deadly wrongs
That are heaped on them by the
british men who've falsely sworn
that they
Would love and cherish and defend
with their lives both night and day
For the hypocrites who prate OF love
while they live a double life,
There's a whipping post, and it's wait
ing now for the man who beats his
wife.

On the backs of thugs who beat their
wives, and said it was no crime;
Who said: I've bought and paid for
her, and she belongs to me;
SO | must rule and she obey, for I'm
her husband, see!"
They forget the promise to protect
and love in peace or strife;
There's a whipping post to slash the
back Of the man who beats his wife,
There's a whipping post in hades,
though they've been outlawed on

For the men all know that the cruel
lash is a cause for grief-not mirth;
Net there be those who'll strike their
mates such terrible, cruel blows,
And who. if caught, will grOWl and
whine OF their trials and grlets and
woes
There's many a tired, weary soul
WhO've given up the strife;
There's a whipping post to tear the
hide of the man who beats his wife.
There's a whipping post in hades-
some wives may need a few
For there's some hends in female form
who are false and cruel, too;
Still, there's no reason why man
should strike his faithful mate,
For the greatest love too oft outraged
will turn to deadly hate
\ man must learn to give and take

There's a whipping post-or there
ought to be-for the man who beats
