The Fifth and Second wards voted to

Third and Fourth were against 1t. The
size of the vote cast and the decisive
majority were generally surprise.
The defeat Of this ordinance leaves
the city in exactly the same position
as before its enactment by the council.
The vote, of course, indicates to the
council the majority sentiment OF the
people as to amusements. Sunday ball
will continue in Webster. There must
however, be no disturbing Of the peace
in the vicinity of the ball parks.
It is more than likely also that sun
day movies will be started here II the
movie managers so desire. The Issues
were squarely up and the vote cast
must be taken as true representation
of the sentiment of the voters OF the
community.

KILLED ~ FAST FREIGHT.
Battle Crock Youth Meets Death
While Aliehting Frsm Train.


Special to Tines Republican.
Ida Grove. July S0.-Lloyd PETER,
son Of Alfred PETER. q farmer resid-
ing one mile west Of Battle Creek,
this county. was killed last night about
10 o'clock as he was attempting to
alight from fast freight. only few
rods from his home. The young man
had brought an automobile to this
city to have 1t repaired. and as the
work could not be done until the next
day, he decided to ride the freight
home and as It does not stop at Battle
Creek, his death resulted when he at
tempted to get of. The body was
discovered the. next morning by the
section crew, but as the top of his
head had been completely taken off.
and his face so badly mutilated. his
identity was not discovered for al
most three hours after. altho people
went out to where the accident hap
pened who had known him all his life.
Many who saw him thought he was
tramp. and supposed he had been
pushed of the train by companions
and but little thought was given I'M
til the family began to wonder what
had become OF the son. The first to
identify him was c. w. Hoyer. a lum-
Der dealer Of Battle Creek who went
out with the sheriff and county at
torney, the latter conducting the in
quest in the place OF the coroner. as
the latter office has been vacant for
some time. He was % years old and
unmarried. working his fathers farm
at the time OF his death.
