TWO KILLED
YOUNG MAN AND FINANCE KILL
ED IN AUTO WRECK AT
WATERLOO, Ia.

ID. j. O'Connell, of Ramona, who
was in Madison this morning, en-
route to Sioux Falls, told that word
was received in Ramona yesterday
that a young mar named Keith and
his fiance were killed in Waterloo,
Ia, yesterday. They were riding In
an automobile when their car was
struck by a freight train at a cross
ing and both instantly killed. Mr..
Keith is a brother of Mrs. Funston,
of Ramona, and his mother was in
Ramona when word of the fatality
was received. The latter was taken
by automobile to Colman, where an
other son resides, and together they
proceeded to Waterloo. Mrs. Fun
ston will join them tomorrow.

his fiance visited at the home of Mrs.
Funston in Ramona a few weeks ago.

VIDAL SAYS mo"
MADISON BOY SAYS REPORT
THAT HE WILL RESIGN Is
UNFOUNDED.

Gene Vidal has no intention of
leaving West Point, so far as his par
ents here are aware. Mrs. F. Vidal,
Genes mother, said today that she
did not know how the report emf
mated that her son and Oliphant were
considering leaving college.
1T is just possible" said Mrs. VII
dial, that inducements have been
held out to Gene and Mr.. Oliphant TO
enter another school, but If such is
the case, it is news to me-"
Big eastern papers published ru-
mors to the effect that Vidal was dis
satisfied at West Point. The Sioux
City Journal got in direct communi-
cation with the Madison boy. His
telegraphed reply to the Sioux City
Journal was as follows:
Il came here with serious inten-
tons and nothing short of a battery
of artillery can drive me away"
The following comment is made by
the Sioux City paper:
Oliphant is the first man that ever
attended West Point to win four let
ters in as many different branches of
sport. Vidal probably will be the
second man to accomplish this feat.
Vidal already has made his football
letter and there is little question but
what he will be a member of the bas-
ketball team, as he is a star at this
game. He also is a wonder in the
high jump and pole vault and has
won many points in the hurdles and
discus throw. He was one of the
stars of the South Dakota baseball
nine and should be able to land a reg
ular berth on the Army baseball
team.
