requested that Rev. James Thomas, pastor of the First Methodist church, to which MT. Powell was strongly at-| tached, sing one of the old time songs at the grave. He left a short note to his oldest son, Alex H. Powell tell ing him that all was happening for the best.
 The deceased has done much for charity and took pride ia assisting those who were less fortunate than he. During the past three years he has been in failing health, and several times it was thought that he would not long servive. His wife has also been in bad health for some time, and the shock of the death of her hus- band has made her condition most serious. It is thought that she will be unable to attend the funeral.
 MT. Powell chose little room in the back of the house to end his life. Standing beside a bed, he placed the weapon to his right temnle and fir ing the shot, fell backward on the bed, where he was found few sec onds later. The pistol used by MT. Rowell was very small, rusty weapon and was not known to be on the place until after it had been used last night. A negro servant at the house was the first to reach Mir. Rowell after he had fired the shot which ended his life. A physician was called but Mir. Rowell died before anything could be done for his relief.
 At a late hour last night Mrs. Rowell was in most critical con dition. All of the children are grief stricken over the tragic death of their father

The most remarkable feature of the
indoor swimming eason just closed
was the clean sweep made in the ma
tional championship event by the wa
termen Of the Illinois A. C. of Chicago.
Not a single title escaped them. But
what is even more astonishing, they
smashed records at almost every i'm
portant meet.
There is NJ doubt that the victori-
GUS organization has built up an
aquatic team the like Of which has
never been developed in any country.
AS it stands today it could probably
alone make a strong bid for the all
around International swimming hon
ors in open Olympic contest.
Harry Hebner proved the most
brilliant star in the glowing constella-
tion. He won the 100, 220 and 500
yard free-style titles, as well as the
150-yard backstroke championship,
and in spite of the fact that this pro-
miscuous competing in such widely
differing events naturally prevented
his showing best form in any one, he
managed to lower several worlds rec
ords. At $50 yards he bettered the
figures from I'm. 80 2-5s. to I'm. 311-5s.;
at 220 yards he improved Daniels
mark from Pm, 25 2-5s. to I'm. Els,
and in backstroke swimming he re-
duced his own international standard
from I'm. SO Abs. to I'm. 40 2-5s.
To Arthur Raithel went the only
individual free-style title not captured
by Hebner. He defeated the latter by
a touch in the 50-yard championship
dash. 1t is worthy Of note, too, that
during the season he equaled the
worlds 100-yard record of 81 4-5s. for
swimming the distance in a sixty
foot pool.
Michael McDermott took laurels in
breast stroke swimming. He won the
200-yard classic race by a wide mar
gin, and would unquestionably have
created a new record had he not been
instructed before the contest to "
himself for other events as soon as
he had secured a safe lead.
Konrad Wohfeld was returned a
victor in the fancy diving champion
ship and his triumph over the very
best Of American divers caused a SEN
sation, for he entered the field as a
novice less than two years ago.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1914-06-03

Hebner, of course, won the title in
backstroke swimming with hardly an
effort, and he also helped his team
mates. Perry McGillivray, Arthur
Raithel, and. William Vosburg to
capture the 400-yard relay racing
championship in worlds record time.
The speedy quartet covered the dis
lance in three minutes, fifty-two and
two-fifth seconds. as against the for
mer standard time of three minutes,
fifty-five mi three-fifth seconds.
While McGillivray had t. be salts
fled with second and third places in
the individual national tests, it is but
fair to state that he shattered three
American records. reducing the 350-
yard one from two minutes. fifty
eight and two-fifth seconds to two
minutes, fifty-three and three-fifths
seconds; the S00-yard one from three
minutes. thirty eight seconds to three
minutes, twenty mine and one-fifth
seconds and the 880-yard on from
eleven minutes, forty-four and four
fifths seconds to eleven minutes,
twenty-nine and one-fifth seconds. :
As a climax to these sterling
achievements the Illinois A. G.. water
polo team defeated all Corners at the
international style of game recently
adopted in this country and took the
championship pennant. On the team
pldyeQ Marty aSDn5r, P6Try McSIlll1-
vray, Michael McDermott, Max Mott,
William vosburgh, F. McDermott.,
and M. Roth. They showed remark
able skill In handling the ball, won
derful speed, and machine like team
work. It is not at. all improbable that
they will be good enough befre 1915
to be sent to represent this country
at the Olympic tournament in Berlin.
A review of the season would not
be complete without mentioning that
Joseph Wheatley, an eighteen-year-
old member of the New York A. c.
established a 500-metre record of
seven minutes, one and one-fifth Sec
onds, which Is only five seconds slow
er that the worlds record, and that b.
r. Small of the Olympic club Of San
Francisco, defeated the peerless Duke
Kahanamoku in a straightaway 90
gard swim, equalling in so doing the
worlds mark of twenty-three and two
|fifths seconds.
All told, it was the best season ever
enjoyed by American water sports.
