Injuries at Cedar Rapids.
Cedar Rapids. Jan. 2-Joe Vompola'
the man who on Wednesday evening
entered the home Of his wife with MUIR
derous intent and inflicted bullet
wound in her shoulder. died Saturday
afternoon as the result Of his self
inflicted wounds. His death came d.
rectly as the result of shooting himself
upward in the chin.
At first 1t was thought the mans
injuries were not serious. The bullet
had. however. torn its way thru the
front part Of the face and made terrible
injuries. His lower Jaw was fractured
in several places. His tongue was
raralyzed several teeth were out and
his nasal cavaties were destroyed. 1t
is probable also that in some manner
injury was made to his brain.
vompola was perfectly conscious
since the time he was taken to the
hospital. The best that could be done
In the surgical line was offered him.
Blood infection, however, could not be
prevented and this complication aided
in his death. In the afternoon DR..
Petrovitsky had planned to perform an
operation on his Jaw wiring the frac-
tured pieces together. The operation
was not performed.
Mrs. Vompola at the hospital is re-
ported as doing nicely. Her very bad
injuries. however. give her great pain
and she suffers intensely.

In ell the seven weeks since the
opening Of the senatorial campaign the
fact has been kept before the public
that in all probability the senatorial
selection would be made from this
field At no time has the situation
changed in the least. The selection of
Young to be the standpat candidate by

forestall all others. The candidacy OF
Kenyon was launched prior to the cleo
