MRS. BEER DIED
NATURAL. DEATH
John Doe Proceedings Held at
Plain to Clear Up a Few I'm
certaintieS.

District Attorney James Fl. Hill has
held John Doe proceedings at Plain
to clear UP few alleged uncertainties
in connection with the death of Mrs.
Alois Beer. Mrs. Beers brother Steph-
en- Paulus, claimed that she had died
from the effects of injuries inflicted
by her husband and this had caused
much talk in the neighborhoOd. Mrs.
Beer died on October Is and was bur-
led a little later The testimony
showed that she was knitting the ey-
ening previous to her death, that her
husband and two daughters came
home about 10 o'clock and that the
family retired about one hour later.
About o'clock in the morning Mr..
Beer discovered that his wife was
dead. The testimony of the under
taker and others who assisted in pre-
pairing Mrs. Beer for burial was to the
effect there were no marks OF VOL
ence on her body, that her demise
was a peaceful and painless death.
There was apparently every indlca-
ton that there was no struggle Or
violence when she passed away. 1t
also developed that there had been
some differences between the husband
and wife on October IL, six days be-
fore death came. 1t also developed
that Mr.. Paulus had an ancient grudge
against his brother-in-law. After the
testimony had been taken it was de-
cided that there was not enough evil
dence to order the body being eS-
humed and this was not ordered done
Justice Adolph andre accompanied
Attorney it'll and presided at the
hearing.
