Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1914-05-21

Mrs. Alice Nash, who yesterday was
elected supreme receiver. is being
nearly smothered with letters and tele-
grams from friends in all parts OF Min
nesota Offering congratulations on her
election. During Mrs. Nash's term of
office she will handle about six mil
lion dollars. No inconsiderable sum.
Mrs. Carrie Franklin, retiring su-
preme receiver, is considered the silver
tongued orator of the convention. Her
talk yesterday on the floor had a great
deal to do in the adoption of the
report of the committee recommending
the raising of salaries. While this is
possibly true, Mrs. Susie b. Rose, one
of the supreme managers, who was not
a candidate for reelection at this time,
had a great deal to do with the adop-
ton of the report. She argued mas
much as the delegates had voted them
selves an increase to $12 per day they
shold not be averse to giving the su-
preme officers a raise in salaries.
The bureau of information members,
a most accommodating and agreeable
lot of ladies, were at their places in
the New Harper lobby exactly on time
this morning, in fact they were one or
two minutes ahead of time, feeling
that they had been unduly censured
yesterday because they had been a few
minutes late.
Mrs. May Buchanan, supreme inner
sentinel, came all the way from Mos
COW, Idaho, to shed the light of her
countenance on the delegates. Mrs.
Buchanan is a busy little body, and
while about her duties she lets no one
pass without the inner password. She
finds plenty of time to sing the praises
of Idaho, and especially dwells on the
fact that Idaho raises better peaches
(take it as you wilD than any other
state in the union.

W|TCHCRAFT BLAMED
FOR DEATH OF HORSES
State Veterinarian to Investigate
Cause of Mysterious Death Of
Animals in York Co.
Special TO The TeIeeraph

Dallastown, Pa, Sept. 2.-Some dis
ease, not as yet classified, has caused
the death of three horses belonging to
Henry F. Ness, residing near Kreid-
ler's Mill in York township, within
the past week, and while Mr.. Ness is
of the opinion that witchcraft has
been exercised on his horses, an in
vestigation is being made by the au-
thorities to determine the exact cause
of the. trouble. State Veterinarian
Marshall will he notified and he Is ex-
pected to continue the investigation
now under way. Tt has been found
that the horses were cared for and
fed well enough, contrary to the opin-
ion expressed by a number of persons.
All of the horses were quite valuable,
the last one being held at $225.
These occurrences, together with the
illness of Mr.. Ness baby, have caused
him a great deal of anxiety and the
matter was reported to the S. P. G. A.
agent, who started to investigate, but
was unable to discover the cause of
the trouble, hence it will be taken up
with the State Veterinarian. Mr., Ness
has another horse, and so far 1t is ap-
parently in the best of condition.

Millersburg Broom Factory
Damaged by Stubborn Fire

Millersburg, Pa, Sept. Fire was
discovered shortly before s o'clock last
evening in the Union Broom Works
plant, owned by c. Day & Bro, in East
alley near North street. The fireman
responded at once and fought for
more than an hour before it was
gotten under control. The difficulty
in subduing it arose from the fact
that the fire was in the corn room and
was fought with difficulty on account
of the dense smoke. A number of the
large bales were at length pulled out
of the building, which gave the men
a chance to play the water directly on
the burning corn, which was then soon
controlled.
At an early stage of the fire it
looked as though it might be a bad
blaze on account of the many wooden
structures close by and Halifax was
called upon for help and responded
with men and hose, which was put to
use at once. The damage. which was
mostly by water, may amount to more
than $500, covered by insurance.

NEGRO ASSAULTS MAN
ON PERRY CO. ROAD
Hits Driver of Lumber Wagon on
Head With Rock and
Lands in Jail

Marysville, Pa. Sept. enlarged
Jacob Knaub, of Rye township, Ed
ward Berry. a negro. who claims Fair
fax county, Virginia, as his home. was
yesterday committed to the Perry
county Jail at New Bloomfield by JUS
tice of the Peace William H. Baugh-
man to await trial at the September
court.
Knaub, who is a driver for the
James Bell estate. lumber dealers of
this place, alleges that yesterday, after
he had unloaded ties here and was
returning to keystone with the empty
wagon, he noticed the negro hurrying
after, and thinking he wanted a ride,
no answer, but called Knaub vile
epithet and began to fill his arms with
stones. After he had filled his arms
he again began to hurry after knaub.
Becoming alarmed at the peculiar ac-
tions of the negro. Knaub jumped
from the wagon. He picked up sew
eral stones and threw one at the negro,
but missed his aim.
Hardly had the rock whizzed by his
head when the negro returned the fire
with better aim and hit Knaub back of
the head, rendering him unconscious
Several other drivers followed closely
after and it is believed the man would
have killed Knaub had not the drivers
arrived.
An attempt was made to capture
the negro, but he tore away from the
drivers and attempted to escape. Dur
ing the melee the negro was struck
over the head with a heavy chestnut
club. but the club broke and the blow
did not seem to have any effect upon
him. He was finally secured and
brought to town by John Albright. a
former liveryman of this place, and
turned over to Chief of Police John
Myers. Berry admits that he has
served time in jails of Western Penn
sylVania as we'll as in Ohio.
