DEATH Of OPERA
SINGER DUE TO
FALL RECENTLY
PaImiro AIeotti, Thought to
Have Been Heat Victim,
Found to Have FraC-
tured Skull.

Palmiro Aleotti, Italian opera
singer, died yesterday morning in
the county jail from a fractured
skull received in recent fall, ac-
cording to DR.. c. F. Shook, who per-
formed an autopsy at the Hoffman
Funeral home.
A brain hemorrhage resulted
from the fracture, according to DR..
Shook. Deputy County Attorney
Steinwender has not decided wheth-
er an inquest will be held. Antonio
Venuto, Italian vice consul in Oma-
ha, is attempting to communicate
with friends or relatives of Aleotti.
Aleotti, who lived in San Fran
cisco, was on his way to Boston,
where. it was said, he was to meet
his company and make final ar
rangements for the approaching
season. When his train reached Co.
,umbus, Neb., Wednesday, the man
became suddenly and violently in
sane. He broke out one of the car
windows and threatened every one
on the coach. Word was sent to
the Omaha police. The man was
taken off the train here and lodged
III the county Jail.
He was placed in the hospital
ward, but when he attempted to
batter down a door with chair,
Jailer Clayton placed him in cell.
Up until a late hour Wednesday he
was resting quietly. and, according
to attendants, gave every indication
Of being in excellent physical con-
dition. When Deputy Jailer Pospi-
chal passed the mans cell at f yes
terday morning Aleotti was lying
on the floor dead.
The coroner ordered the body
taken to the Hoffman Funeral
home. Aleotti had been in this coun-
try only a short while. He came
here from his home in northern
Italy. He had no relatives in the
United States. The man had be-
tween SIS and $50 in his pockets,
and checks aggregating several hun
dred dollars.
Aleotti talked to Samuel Man
cuso of Omaha. who will be asked
to communicate with the dead mans
relatives and close friends.
He said he had no relatives in
this country" said Mr.. Mancuso,
"but he told me. he was born in
Para, Italy, and seemed to be OF
aristocratic parentage. so it should
be easy to cable to them"

I reached home feeling tired, dis
pirited, almost exhausted with the
extreme heat of the early summer

finitely the round of trivial, but
necessary, duties which generally
awaited me, little executive details

the occasional discipline which my

"On Tuesday noon Of this week
Baughman called me over the tele-
phone to say that Mr.. Ringers sec
rotary had advised that the Indians
would be sent back. I Immediately
went to see Mr.. Ringer. who stated
that he had changed his mind. He
admitted that he had said that he
would leave the selection OF ma
chimes TO the riders, but told me
that he had changed his mind and
that that was lall there was to it;
that the riders would have to use
the machines he bought, and he
added that only four or five riders
knew anything about motorcycles,
anyway.
Il asked him about the expense
we had been put to and he replied
that that was our lookout. He told
me that if we were not ready to
take chance. we should not have
sent the machines. l replied that

Ringer changed his mind over
night, without even having the
courtesy to offer an explanation.
The motorcycle agent is substan-
tiated in most details by Sergt. Tom
Baugham, who has charge of the
motor equipment at Central police

legation of Mr.. Board.

Mr.. Board stated that when he
went to Mr.. Ringer about the mat

anything about motorcycles, but
that he intended to abide by the de-.
cision of Sergeant Baughman and
the motorcycle policemen. Il then
went to Baughman, who told me
that II of the IS motorcycle police
men expressed a preference for In

"Baughman further told me that
Commissioner Ringer had told him
to 20 ahead and take them if he
wanted these machines. told
Baughman I wanted more definite

Mr.. Ringer again and came to my

Indian machines, but insisted that
he had a right to change his mind.

Sergeant Baughman admitted that
there was considerable foundation
for Mr.. Boards belief in the sale

"But l did not tell Mr.. Board that
Mr.. Ringer had made out a resolu-

said. II advised Board not to go

Milk consumers in bridgeport may look for another raise in the price of milk by the first of December, ac- cording to talk among the milkmen here today.
 During this month Borden's Farm Products company boosted the price of milk a cent all around and Mitch els Dairy with the Farmers Dairy company are planning to go up on the first of December. This will make the price of milk 20 cents per quart for grade A milk from all large dealers.
 They are to sell at II cents a pint following the example of the Borden Go. and equalize the milk traffic of Bridgeport, The management of the Farmers Dairy Co. admits that they are planning a raise but cannot say just when 1t will take effect.
 It is their contention that they must get more for milk during the winter as the cows are fed III the barn and cattle feed is unusually high. They say they are only fol- lowing their usual custom and will probably reduce the price in the spring.
