NET HER DEATH
IN AUTO WRECK
Miss Anthone Barta Lost Life While
Returning from Celebration.

The Fourth Of July celebration in
this community was marred by a sad
and fatal accident which occurred
that evening near Olivia and which
cost the life of Miss Anthone Barta,
a young woman residing with her bro
Their south of town.
Miss Barta was returning home
from the celebration at Bird Island
In her brothers Ford car driven by
her nephew, Leonard Mercer The
fatal accident happened about six
o'clock on the Pekarek grade on the
state road three miles south of Oliv-
ia. Young Mercer, who was driving,
escaped without serious injury, but
was unable to give a clear explana-
ton of how the mishap occurred. At
first he told confused story of be-
ing run off the grade by large car
which did not stop but investigation
Of the scene indicated clearly that it
was case of fast driving when the
car got beyond control and swayed for
some distance along the side of the
road before front wheel got smashed
and the hub dug up the hard surface
for some distance. It appears that
the car turned completely over twice,
landing right side up in the ditch fac
ing the road. The windshield was de-
mol1shed as was one front wheel and
the car was otherwise battered up.
Just how Miss Barta's injury was sus-
tanned is not known, but she was pick
ed up unconscious by a passing car
and brought to the Ryan hotel in O.
livia. The local doctors were out Of
town and DR.. Adams Of Bird Island
was summoned and after an examina-
t1On felt that her injury was not fat
al, but she passed away about 1880
without regaining consciousness. She
had cut over the temple and her
chest was crushed.
The remains were taken in charge
by undertaken Dirks and the body was
shipped Sunday to her former home
at Ocheyedan, Ia, where the burial
was made on Monday beside her fa-

six years ago with her mother and a

She kept house for her brother until
his marriage, since which she has
made her home there and has worked
as dressmaker She is survived by
her mother and brother and two neph-

ty, and they are respected people who
have the wholehearted sympathy of

When a Tornado Comes,


The chance of a tornado is about
one half In hundred years but when
they do come there are forewarnings
that are very plain. The air feels
gummy and clammy. It is hard to
breathe. Gust of winds come up sud
denly from the south and die away
as suddenly. It grows tense and 81
lent and then long roaring sound
the tornado sweeps down and it is
time to run. Tornadoes always come
from the southwest and travel by cir
cular path to the northeast and q IS
mile run is generally enough to tire
1t. Never run east whatever hap
pens.
BY running west or northwest you
are far more certain to get outside
of the path Of the windstorm. Go In
to cellar of frame house and get
in, the southwest corner. Then the
flying ruins Of the house as It Is swept
away will be. piled up In the north
east corner and leave the cellar oc-
cupants uninjured. Tornadoes come
about six o'clock in the evening, al
most never at night. The conditions
causing q tornado are hot weather,
low barometer and hot winds. The
longer this lasts the greater the
danger. The air is full OF slow sail
ing clouds and feels sticky and people
are nervous. This nneasiness Is felt
by perfectly well person and Is .
sign that some thing is wrong with
the atmosphere and will right itself
in q violent manner.
