Mrs. Oles Stofer Dead.

A telegram was received by rel
atives in this city Sunday morn
ing conveying the sad intelligence
that Mrs. Oles Stofer had died at
her home in Snyder, Oklahoma,
after a short illness of pleuro-
pneumonia. The news was a
great shock to the relatives and

enviable record. She was one Of
the most efficient and popular
teachers in the schools of this
city.
June 9, 1910, she was united in
marriage to Oles Stofer, a prom
inent hardware and implement

this union were born two daugh-
ters, Mildred Ailena, now 6 years
of age and Zala Ladinc, 3 years
