is FOUND HANGING IN BARN
Fear Of Failure To Recover From
Operation Given As Cause
For Rash Act.

Rock Rapids.--Mrs. Julius Prahl
ended her life by hanging herself in
the barn at her home in Cleveland
township. She had not previously CIV
en- any evidence of being demented
or disconnected with life and her ac-
tons are not easily explained, as she
appeared in the best of spirits when
her husband departed for town to get
two crates of berries that she desired
to can.
On his return the children were
searching for their mother, and the
eldest, aged IL, told his father that
his mother had kissed the baby good
by and left the house, and he did not
know where she had gone. A search
revealed the fact that she had gone
to the barn. and climbed ladder in
the loft, fastened one end of a halter
to a beam and the other around her
neck, and swung into space. Death
came from strangulation.
She was about IS years OF age and
the mother of four children, the young
est baby OF six months. The only
cause that can be assigned to the rash
act is that she had been a sufferer
from cancer and after an operation
feared that she would not recover.

ers received a severe beating by the
excited and Infatuated crowd.
Both mother and child had their
clothing nearly torn from them and
their arms, limbs and bodies are bad

lo2-TOwN HAS WATERWORKs
Compiled List Indicates That About
One In Five Of Cities Towns and
Villages Have Not Made Any
Sanitary installations.

sanitary engineer for the state board
of health, has found 2,27S cities,
towns and villages in the state OF

ed with the biennial report of the

and towns have water works and 1876
have water and sewerage system, the.
report shows.
THE list as compiled indicates that
about one in five of the cities, towns
and villages have made any sanitary
installations whatsoever, that only
about one In thirteen of the number
have installed any kind of sewer sys-
TEN. and that about one in thirty-four
of the number have installed sewage
disposal plants" says Mr.. Higgins. or
the entire number Of cities, towns and
villages in the state, not single one
has installed complete up-to-date
garbage disposal plant. although a
number Of cities have used and main
tanned system of garbage collection
with imperfect methods of disposal.
II Is expected, however, that few

age disposal plants within the next
year or two. AS 1t now stands. the
garbage disposal problem in Iowa is
yet unsolved.
The engineers figures show the
number OF cities and towns having wa
terworks only to be 2S9; number hav-
ing wafer works and sewers only 9S;
number having sewers, water works
and sewage disposal plants IS.
The smallest town having water
works has a population Of 102. The
smallest town having both water
works and sewers has a population Of
357, and the smallest having water
works, sewer and garbage disposal
plant has population Of 416.
