MEASLES Are FATAL
TO A GIRL OF II.
Five More Children in Home of
Moses Nuckles Ill With
Disease.

Death invaded the home of Moses
Nuckles, whose six children have been
suffering from the measles for sever
al weeks, and claimed Tina, the second
eldest daughter. The child, who was
~ years old, died yesterday afternoon
shortly after a o'clock.
Mr.. Nuckles and his family moved
to the Cape from farm near Maiden
(Dunklin County, about month ago.
Shortly after their arrival one of the
children contracted the measles and
the six children of Mr.. Nuckles have
been in bed ever since.
Little Tina was the last to contract
the disease. She was thought to be
improving during the latter part of
last week, but Sunday she began to
show symptoms of pneumonia. The
child was not sufficiently strong to
withstand the double attack and sue
cumbed yesterday afternoon.
The funeral will be held probably
this afternoon. Burial will be in Fair
mount Cemetery. The family lives on
North Sprigg street in one of Matt
Morrison's houses.
The other five children of the couple
are either recovering OF out of danger
at the present time. The children are:
Catherin, IA years old; Tom, 10; Ell
yira, $; Luther, 6, and Pat 8.

Monday night but left early in the
morning without paying his hotel bill.
A charge of defrauding the owner of
this bill will also be lodged against the
prisoner.
Parker denied that he had commit
ted the charge preferred against him
by De Pelzer and the owner of the
Central Hotel.
Parker appeared in Jackson Mon
day afternoon and asked DR.. L. +. At
kins to cash check drawn on a bank
in Cotton Plant. Ark, but the phys
ician refused. DR.. Atkins knew Parker,
both having resided in GreenvilIe. Mo-,
about IS years ago. Parker told the
doctor that he had arrived at the Cape
with his daughter, but the latter had
lost her purse containing all the cash
money they had with them.
When De Pelzer told the hotel own
er of the burglary Parker was suspect
ed and a. search was made for him.
He was found in the Iron Mountain
station waiting for a train. He had
bought ticket for Delta.
Parker was arrested and taken to
the hotel. He denied the allegations
made by De Pelzer and was then taken
before Justice of the Pace Putt, who
telephoned Prosecuting Attorney Ca
ruthers.

JOHN NJ. KEYS WILL
GET ARMY RAISE
Cape Man to be Made LieuteE.
ant in Intelligence Depart
ment.

John NJ. Keys, formerly telegraph
operator in the Cape, but who has
been on the border with the U. S.
troops for the past eight months, is
soon to be promoted to First Lieuten-
ant of the Intelligence department of
the army, his relatives in the Cape
have been notified.
He has been assigned to the Intel
ligence corps since he entered the
service, and his duties are to obtain
information for the Government
through the wireless and other teIe-
graph.
In a letter from Mr.. Kcyes few
days ago, he said the L. S. army,
through the Intelligence department,
had obtained secret information cor
corning the German propaganda in
Mexico by tapping Mexican telegraph
wires and intercepting messages from
the German Government to officials in
Mexico.
For several months the Intelligence
department received daily messages
sent from Berlin to q wireless station
near Nogales, Keys stated, and by this
means, the U. S. Government was en-
&bled to learn the full details of the
plans of the Germans in Mexico.
While Keys does not mention the
Zimmerman note to the Carranza gov
eminent, suggesting an alliance be-
tween Mexico, Germany and Japan.
it is presumed that Washington OBJ
tanned the contents of the German note
by wireless. 1t is understood that
Washington has obtained a copy of
Germany's code book, which makes it
possible TO translate the German mes
sages.
Keys, in letter to his wife in It's
city, says he is within short diatarce
of the beligerent MexicanS and daily
witnesses an encounter between item.
He is now stationed at Nogales, on
the border, and is a member of Gen.
Pershing's command.

.HIRSCH RECORD
in NATL BANK
SHOWS HE'S JOKE
He Was Only Stakeholder
Who Wouldn't Help When
Bank Was in Trouble.
BUSINESS MEN LAUGH
OVER HIS CAMPAIGN
He Was Not as Progressive as
the Widows Who Owned
Stock With Him.

Since Will Hirsch labeled himself
the progressive" candidate for may
or, business men have revived the
story of his progressive" connection
with the First National Bank when the
Institution underwent a reorganiza-
ton several years ago.
Mr.. Hirsch became known as the
only stakeholder in the bank to "craw-
fish" when the stockholders of the con-
Germ were called upon to pay an as
sessment on their stock by which suffi-
cient money was obtained to take up
the bad paper and again place the
bank on a solid basis.
Had all of the stockholders taken
the position that Mr.. Hirsch did, the
bank would never reopened and the
stockholders would have lost all they
had invested. But they represented
a variety of "progressiveism" differ
ent from that which Mr.. Hirsch repre-
sents.
When the First National Bank
found itself embarrassed through bad
loans made by former cashier sever
al years ago, the stockholders were
ordered by the bank examiner to ac-
cept an assessment of so cents on the
dollar or close the bank permanently.
To have refused this assessment meant
that the stockholders would lose their
total investments.
There were many women StockhOld-
ers in the big institution. among whom
were number of widows with chill
dren. These women, everyone of them,
and the men, with one exception,
readily agreed to assess themselves in
order to preserve the bank.
That one exception, who refused to
pay his assessment, was Will Hirsch,
the present progressive" candidate
for Mayor. He was willing that the
other stockholders pay their pro rata
in order to preserve the bank and the
$4,000 stock he held in the institu-
ton, but he was unwilling to donata
one dollar to save this splendid ms i-
tuition.
Mr.. Hirsch's action was condemned
by the other stockholders, becausc he
was probably the richest stockh .dcr
in the bank and one of the IL ~crt
stockholders. Efforts were maac 70
induce him to pay his share, tat ne
steadfastly refused. Finally Judge
w. B. Schaefer, who was on e -hc
reorganizers, bought Hirsct'> st5cE
and resold it. The difference between
the amount he paid Hirsc' Tor the
stock and the price for viii "a aa sod
it, was given to the bank b, judge
Schaefer. By crawfsh rc. judge
Hirsch was able to unlouj his stock
to Judge Schaefer at that crsci5i time
for $500 more than an o.lcr stock
holder received. But hg remaining
loyal to the bank the oiher sjockholf-
ers saved the Institute 'ror, failure.
Business men haya u4ud rauch
amusement in Mr. Hi cam that
he is progressive mar aaI vii give
the city a progressive administration.
"Any man who is not as game a. ]
widow would not make a good pubic
official" said promIre?t Cape GIrtT-
deauan yesterday IN speaking of Mr..
Hirsch's connectiou with Tie First Ma
tional Bank.
