the only remedy to existing condi-

Swedish auditorium last night.
Mrs. Bloor ascribed the social un-
rest in the country to the exorbitant
prices imposed on foodstuifs by
profiteers. The subject of her ad-
dress was: Shall We Avoid Revolu-
tion?" Mrs. Bloor declared that a
change in our system was not only
necessary but inevitable.
She vigorously attacked the gov
ernment's policy in denying the
right of free speech to many of her
comrades. Even Russia in her worst
days was more libral than is our
government at the present time, said
the speaker.

N IAN KILLED IN
LEAP FROM THIRD
STORY WINDOW
Adolph Gems, Retired Minden
Farmer, Ends Life at Ed.
mundson Hospital Early
Thursday.

The intense heat Of the last few
days. adding to worry over an in,
durable disease, caused Adolph Gems
IS years old, retired farmer, to end
his life by plunging from the third
story of the Edmundson hospital
Council Bluffs, at E a. m. yesterday
He struck headforemost on ce-
ment sidewalk and was instantly
killed.
Gems came from his home at Min
den three weeks ago for treatment
At no time was he confined to his
bed. He spent much of his time
about the hospital lawns. He COM
planned of the intense heat Wednes-
day afternoon and remained outside
until late in the evening. No men,
tal disturbance of any character had
been noted and no restraint had
been placed upon him. He arose
between 5 and o'clock yesterday
morning and after walking about the
corridors for a short time on the
third floor removed the screen from
a window and plunged to his death.
DR.. Augustine, Minden's ply
stefan, said yesterday that he had
neglected to tell the hospital people
of suicidal mania that had pos
sessed the man for several years. He
had made two other attempts to
take his life but changed his mind
at the critical instant. Once he lett
his home at Minden, walked to the
railroad with the deliberate inten-
ton of throwing himself in front of
a train, but when the train was only
a few yards away stepped backward
in time to escape injury.
Coroner Cutler held an inquest
yesterday afternoon, finding that
the hospital was in no degree re-
sponsible for the mans death.
