CARL LoHsE DIES OF INFLUENZA
Illness Of One Week Develops Into
Pneumonia and Death Ensues-
Funeral to be Held Thursday

SCEILESWIG, Oct. 22-(Special to
the Review THE residents Of Schles-
wig and vicinity were greatly shocked
on "Wednesday, October 10Th, to learn
OF the death Of Mrs. VIM. Stegemann
which occurred at her home. Mrs.
Stegemann had been i'll for the week
previous, but was considered much
Improved and on the road to recovery
when death overcame her suddenly.
Marguerite Film was born in Cedar
county, Iowa, Oct. 5, 1858. The first
nineteen years of her life were spent
on a farm at that place and on the
21st of March, 1876, she was married
to William Stegemann. They remain
ed on the farm for one year when they
moved to Morgan township, Crawford
county, where they lived for another
year. They then moved to Otter
Creek where they resided on farm
until 1911, when they moved to the
town of Schleswig, where she lived
until the time of her death. Eight
children were born to this union, six
OF whom are living, two sons and four
daughters, namely: Frank and Will
lam, both Of Otter Creek township;
Mrs. Emma Mohr, of Schleswig; Hat
tie, Tena and Hannah, at home. She
also leaves to mourn her demise three
brothers and three sisters, William
Film, of Early; Henry, of Huron, s.
d., and John, Of Wilton, Iowa, and
Mrs. Lizzie. Rosburg, of Osmund,
Neb.; Mrs. Anna Colly, and Mrs. Al
bert Duffy, of Wilton, besides nine
grandchildren and other relatives.
Funeral services were held from the
home in Schleswig on Sunday after
noon, Rev. Wetzeler officiating, and
interment was made in Morgan Gene
terry by the side of her husband who
preceded her in death on July 81, 1914.
Mrs. Stegemann was one of the
pioneers of this city and thus was
very well known in this community
and had host of friends who will
mourn her departure. She was a
kind, loving mother and a helpful and
sympathizing friend and will be sadly
missed in the home and community.

THE NEW FISH LAW.

Much confusion has been created
in the minds of the people in regard
to the provisions of the new law au-
thorizing the taking of fish from the
streams of the state by seines and
nets. Various versions of the law
have appeared from time to time in
the newspapers, with no two Of them
alike. We went to the county court
clerk, who had copy of the law and
after examining it we quote the fol-
lowing substantial provisions of the
law,
On and after April /. fish may be
taken in the navigable streams only,
of the state, and in these only below
the last lock and dam, with nets, the
meshes of which are not less than
two inches square. Under this law
fishing with nets will be permissible
to Ohio county fishermen only in
Rough river below the locks, and in
Green river. Fishing with nets may
not be done within two hundred
yards of any locks, the mouth of any
stream nor within that distance of
the mouth of any navigable stream.
The law further provides that any
arge or small mouth black bass taken
shall be Immediately returned with
out injury. to the water from which
taken.
Before fishing with nets or seines
a license must first be secured from
the county court clerk, for which a
fee of si.25 shall be paid.

The Great Battle.

The greatest battle in the history
of the world is being waged in
France. The Huns, forestalling the
time when the United States can
throw a powerful army into Europe.
are striking with violent effort to
close the conflict before the Ameri-
cans arrive. This is the year the
Hun must win, If he wins at all, and
there is little hope that the German
offensive will let up until it has spent
its force, or broken the Allies line.
Since March 81 a full half million
aen have been killed or disabled from
service, and yet the desperate butch
cry goes on. Just now the Huns are
pressing the British lines, which are
holding with much difficulty. Or
ders have been issued to send the
American soldiers to the rescue of
the sorely pressed British army, and
within the next few days the Ameri-
can people must expect to taste the
bitter fruit of war. The German on
slaugbts are being made without re-
gard to the awful Slaughter Of their
men, and are pressing the Allies with
sheer force of numbers. The Allies,
with unlimited man power to draw

TAX RAISE REDUCED.

A committee of Ohio county citi-
zens composed of Judge Mack Cook,
II. l.. Heavrin, C. E, Smith, Ed Barrass
and John H. Thomas. appeared before
the State Tax commission at Frank
fort Monday and succeeded in getting
a large reduction from the raise of
assessment recently given Ohio coun-
ty by that board.
The Tax Commission had raised
the assessed valuation of the county
S1,300,000 on real estate, $4,000
on town lots and 100000 ON tangi-
BILE property. After hearing the com
mitteeman the Tax commission re-
duced the raise to one million dollars.
and left the amount of the raise to be
distributed in such a manner and on
such property as the local board OF
supervisors think will best equalizo
the burden Of taxation among the
property owners of the county.
The committee found the members
of the Tax commission disposed to
hear it's complaint with patience and
to adjust the raise with reason. And
1t is fair to the Commission to say
that the committee, after examining
the record of assessment of the other
counties of tine state, was convinced
that the million dollar raise was not
unjust to the taxpayers of Ohio
county. pr -,-}A tt..t..
BY securing a reduction of $780,
900 Of the Commissions raise the
committee feels like it had rendered
the county a substantial service in
appearing before the Tax Commits
sion.

less dog tax for the sheep and school
fund.
At the close of day, when the first
stars were peeplng down from the
cloudless sky,aud the church bells
were tolling for vesper service, John
and his twin brother Dan, who are as
devoted to each other as John was to
Brownie, took all that was mortal OF
the once faithful dog out into the gar
den, where loving hands had hewn a
tomb out of the pulseless clay, and
laid it down to everlasting sleep.
While John stood with bowed and un-
covered head Dan read the burial
service for the dead, and with only
the stars on watch the silent mourn
crs turned sorrowfully away, and
left the tomb of Brownie to await
that great day IL there is such day,
when the faithfullness Of dogs will
be rewarded.

WIDOW In weeds
IS NOW In TEARS
Husband Of Few Hours
Torn From Bosom Of
Weeping Wife.

Mrs. Helen O'Rear Saufley King is
in inconsolable grief. Her boy hus-
band, Harry King, whose youthful
censorship she had enjoyed only for
few hours has been ruthlossly torn
from her bosom by NEEDING relatives
OF lhe young groom, and hidden away
in some uniindable place in Chicago.
Mrs. King is a daughter OF Judge
Ed c. O'Rear. of Frankfort. and was
the widow Of the late Caswell Saufley,
an aviator who lost his life through
a leaky winged aeroplane a couple Of
years ago. Mrs. King is known
throughout Kentucky for her remark
able beauty, is known to newspaper
readers for her daring aeroplane
drive around the spire of the statute
of Liberty some time ago. but is more
Immediately known as the inconsol-
able bride of q kidnapped husband,
Mrs. King is % and the boy only 20.
The boy has, or will have at his ma
jority, a considerable fortune.
The King family went up in the
air over the boys marriage to the
widow, so much his senior. Lieu
tenant A. c. King. of Camp Taylor,
brother of Harry, spirited the boy
away to Chicago in the care of a
friend, only few hours after the
marriage. and the heart broken bride
immediately left Louisville for her
home at Frankfort.

on,are retreating at strategetic points
with the view to avoiding excessive
slaughter of men. Unless decisive
results are sooner obtained the fierce
ness of the battle may not be expect
ed to abate for weeks and maybe for
months. German strategy demands
constant and violent action. All her
available military forces are In the
field, and she must stake the for
tunes of war on a single campaign.
The tide of battle is just now un-
favorable to the ALLIES. but it is
hoped that throwing in 1000 fresh
American troops may vastly improve
the Allies fortunes of war. II is GER
tain now that history will record this
as the decisive battle of the war.
If the Allied armies hold through the
seasons fighting, German man-pow-
er will be too exhausted to ever again
contend on a field of battle for the
mastery OF the world But assum-
ing German victory in this cam
paign the war would drag into an
other year. The freemen of the
world are lighting military madness,
and there can be no doubt OF the final
result.

Witi the American Army in
France, april S.-The American rail-
road engineers who helped stem the
tide of the onrushing Germans dur
ing the opening days of the battle
now in progress, fought shoulder to
shoulder with Canadian engineers in
carrying out their task. They held
their ground stubbornly and only re-
tired to previously prepared positions
when forced TO do SO and inflicted
casualties by the thousands upon the
Germans as they advanced in close
formation. in one place in as many as

and 100 yards apart.
Working With Canadians.
When the German attack began
the Ambericans were working in the
rear lines with the Canadians, under
Canadian command. They quickly
threw down their tools and seized
the weapons with which they had
been armed for some months and
formed themselves into a fighting
unit. The Germans came on and
finally reached the positions where
the Americans were waiting.
The exact number of the engineers
cannot be given, but they were COM
paratively small. They had no in
tention of retreating, however, and
were bent upon killing all the Ger
mans possible.
