KILLED HUSBAND
Mrs. Oday Says He Wanted to Marry
Another Woman.

Groton, Sept. "a coroner's jury
is in session at Groton to investigate
the death of James Oday, who was
shot by his wife Saturday morning,
when he tried to break into the house
and who died late Saturday night.
The elimination of their trouble
came, it is alleged when Oday asked
his wife to procure a divorce in order
that he might marry another woman.
Oday went to the house Saturday
night and sought admission. His
wife refused to let him in and sat on
guard inside the door while her hus-
band sat on the outside on the step,
trying to persuade her to admit him.
Finally Oday started to break in the
house, and his wife fired through the
window, the bullet from a .32 caliber
revolver striking him in an artery.
At first it was thought Oday would
recover, but the loss of blood proved
too much for him, and he succumbed.
He is said to have been an excellent
salesman, travelling through the coun-
try selling nursery stock, but had OF
late neglected both his work and his
family. Mrs. Oday is held, pending
the outcome of the coroner's inquest.

SPEECH BY BURKE
HIS POSITION ON THE ABSENTEE
RESOLUTION is DEFENDED.

washington, Sept. 9.-When the
resolution of Majority Leader Oscar
w. Underwood to revoke all leaves of
absence which had been granted to
members of the house and directing
the sergeant at arms to dock all those
who should be absent for any cause
other than sickness of themselves or
families, came up for a vote one of
the few members who voted against
it was Charles III. Burke, representa-
tive from the Second district of South
Dakota, who is the republican whip
of the house and the nominee of his
party for the senate. Mr.. Burke de-
Tended his position In a vigorous
speech on the floor.
The question of how a public Of
icial ought to discharge the duties of
his office. and especially a member
of congress, is a matter for his con-
~stituency," Mr.. Burke said. 1T is
not a question OF just how many days
he may have been absent from the
sessions, or whether he may have
missed a few roll calls, but it is what
he accomplishes and whether he rep
resents the sentiment of his constit-
uency upon public questions. If he is
~neglectful of his duties and indiffer-
emit with regard to questions that
may arise in which his constituency
is interested, he will promptly be. re-
called, and, therefore, there is an adj
equate remedy where members fail to
perform their duty"
Speaking Of his absences from
the house, Mr.. Burke said:

Bonding Company Tells School
Board II Is Wrong ard That
Contractors Arc Right

Aside from the regular routine of
hearing reports of committees, allow
ing bills, ETC., but little was done by
the Board of Education at their meet
ing last evening at the Broad school.
Another matter which would per-
haps tend to create a little uneasi-
ness in the minds of some of the MEM
bers Of the board in regard to the
stand they have taken which has re-
suited in a suspension # the work
of constructing the new high school
building, was the report received from
the New Amsterdam Bonding ,on,p-
any.
This firm advised the board that Of
ter an investigation of the dIlhcuity
between Vogelsang Bros, the con-
tractors, and Fels & Co., the archi-
tects, over the reinforced steel work
to which the architects objected, they
are convinced that the contractors are
right and that the work should be al
lowed to proceed.
1t was decided to submit the re-
port of the bonding company to the
attorney employed by the board, for
his consideration and advice. 1t is
now believed that the work will soon
be resumed and that the contentious
of the builders will finally prevail
over those of the architects.
There will be another meeting Of
the board on Saturday afternoon for
the purpose of receiving the new
school buildings in time for occupan-
cy at the beginning of the term, Sep
