Mrs. ]. E. Leeper, ST. died at her
home, Forest Lawn Farm, two miles
northeast of Leon on Friday, August
z, 1914, at the age of 81 years, lO
months and 16 days.
Mrs. Leeper's death came as
great shock to the entire community,
as few even knew that she was in III
health. For about year she had
been suffering, but was able to be
up and around. She was taken sud
denly ill the evening before her
death, and her death came the fol-
lowing day, being caused from cancer
of the stomach.
Helen Marium Leeper, daughter OF
John and Mary Ann KeOwn, was
born near Pleasanton Sept. IL, 1862.
She was united in marriage to J. =.
Leeper ST., on May II, 1882, and to

Of Pleasanton, Iowa; Mrs. Mary L.

L. Leeper, at home:
When she was sixteen years of age
Mrs. Leeper united with the Saints
church and had lived devoted
christian life. She was devoted
wife and fond and loving mother,
and was a lady who was respected
and loved by all who knew her.
Her remains were taken to Pleas
anton for burial, where funeral SER
vices were held, conducted by Elder
M. NJ Turpen.

stomach trouble which gradually
grew worse until in June, 1913, when
he was confined to his bed for a
time, but afterwards apparently get
ting better again. He was however
obliged to give up all work from this
time on, and was confined to the
house and his bed most of the time.
May rs, 1914 he went to Rochester,
Mimi, seeking treatment which
would relieve his suffering, and was
operated upon by the Mayo Bros, on
June 9th. His trouble proved to be
cancer of the stomach and his con-
dition was found to be such that the
operation could only afford him tenn
'porary relief and he, gradually grew
worse until his death.
Funeral services were held at the
home on Thursday, August 18th,
conducted by Elder M. NJ. Turpen, his
funeral being largely attended, for
he was very popular man. The
bereaved wife and children have the
sympathy of the entire community.

WOLF Declares that Battle Of
TOreon Fixed to Suit the
Picture Operators
VILLA WAS OFFERED
$4,000 FOR PRIVILEGE
Rebel Leader Delayed As
sault Till Dawn, which Cost
About 1000 Lives

Youngstown, Ohio, May 19.-That
General Villas campaign which culmi-
mated in the Mexican rebels capture
of Torreon was staged throughout, at
the cost of hundreds of lives, for tho
convenience of moving picture opera
tors, was asserted here today by J. NJ.
Woltz, an official of a local steel com
pany, just back from Mexico.
Villa originally planned to attack
Torreon at night, said Woltz, aud prob
ably would have taken it in short order
had he done so, as there was every rea-
son to believe he would have surprised
the federal garrison. The representa-
tives Of Los Angeles "movie" com
pany protsted vigorously against this,
however, according to the steel man. Of
fering Villa $4,000 for exclusive rights
in the fight tilm and daylight engage
mont.
To get this money, Woltz asserted,
the rebel leader delayed the assault un-
til dawn, with the result that the fed
erals held out against II for days, kill
ing about 1000 rebels.

REBEL JUNTA DEFIANT
REGARDING MEDIATION
Week VIII Determine Change For
Peaceful Settlement Officials Grow
ing Uneasy Over Silliman.

Washington, May 19.-The American
ENJOYS to the GA. B. c." mediation
conference left for Niagara Falls today.
It was expected week would decide
whether or not there was a change for
a peaceful settlement of the American
Mexican troubles. The mediators were
understood to sympathize with the
Washington administration in general
way and it was expected they would
urge the Huerta representatives to
yield.
Members of the constitutionalist jun
Ia here were inclined to be defiant. In
his quarrel with the United States they
had no sympathy for President Huerta
but they appeared to consider that
there was no occasion for their fac
tion's representation at any arbitration
negotiations, since the rebels intended
to arbitrate but to gain control of the
Mexican government and run it as they
saw fit.
However, there were still reports
that in the end General Carranza would
send representatives to Niagara Falls.
Some Of those who held this view ex-
pressed the opinion that he was not
tactfully approached when the PROPOSE
tion was originally suggested to him
and that his objections could be over
come if the matter were presented to
him in tho right light.
Officialdom was growing steadily
more nervous at the continued lack of
information concerning the fact of John
Silliman, United States consul at Sal
tillo. Men high in administration cir
cles were losing faith in the theory
that interrupted railroad communion
tion was eusing the delay. It was
pointed out that several trains have
passed Saltilo on their way to Mexico
City since the government demanded
Silliman's release.
Secretary Bryan did not deny that he
feared there would be such wave of
indignation as perhaps to force the
administration hand if it should de-
velop that the consul was the victim
of an outrage.

NUTALL MUST ANSWER
TO MURDER CHARGE
Took Aged Woman For Auto Ride and
Then Caused Car to Run Away Down
Mountain.

Los Angeles, Cal, May 19.-Frank ].
Nutall must answer before a jury in
the criminal court to charge of mur-
dering Mrs Helen McCombs, who was
killed six weeks ago when she leaped
from Nutall's runaway automobile on
Lookout mountain. He was held late
yesterday by Justice of the Peace Sum
merfield.
Nutall is 2S years old and Mrs. Ne
Combs was 6S. 1t is alleged that Nut
all, who already was married, had en-
gagged himself to Mrs. McCombs, and
the state will contend that she had ex-
ecuted will leaving him her property,
about $4,000.
1t is understood that the state will
base its case upon the assumption that
Nutall took Mrs. McCombs on an auto
mobile drive and caused the car to run
away down mountain side, sending
her to death.
