George H. Musson, states attorney

rifle was the blow that the report
of the impact caused spectators to
think the ball had struck his bat.

fielded the ball that rebounded half
way to the pitchers box, and thre"
it to first base in order to retire
Chapman. Then it was noted that
CHAPMAN had collapsed at the home

Speaker Walker of the house,
leader of the anti-suffrage forces
and member of the committee said
the first committee ballot stood 9 to
8, and he refrained from voting. TO
relieve the tie one of the antis
changed his vote. This was regarded
in opposition circles as an indication
of how little Importance was to be
attached to the committee action.
Cox Urges Ratification
Governor Roberts made public the
following telegram from Governor
Cox, the Democratic presidential
nominee: g..
II earnestly hope that you will do
everything in your power to aid In
the immediate ratification of the

and history"
A telegram signed by 63 Of the l2O
members of the North Carolina
house, stating that they would de-
feat ratification by that state, was
received. by Mr.. Walker last Thurs
day.
Suifragists Claim Majority
Conflicting claims as to results OF
the vote were made. Seth Walker,
speaker and leader of the opposition,
said the amendment would be re-
jected.
1--WE have ratification beaten, that
is all there is to it," he declared.
Suffrage leaders still were conf
dent they would win. They have
claimed a majority in the house
since the legislative session began
and said if members stood by their
pledges, victory was certain.

Made and Discrepancies
in Letter Shown
DID JIM QUIT TWICE?

Attacks of Nonpartisan league
leaders on Jim Waters, former man

were renewed today. with continued
silence by Waters on his allegations
of crookedness against many league
high lights.
The charge that Waters demanded
$1,000 from the league as his price

While the league leaders were tax
ing this action against a man Tor
merly high in league councils, others
were pointing out discrepancies be,

Waters, originally published in the
Courier News on April 8 and the al
legged Photographic copy published on
August 13.
Many Differences

date of it's writing was fixed as

pared to the first published letter.
The paragraph in which the res
ignation is specifically offered in the
letter of March 80 reads as follows:

to be relieved of the responsibility
and labor which are involved in the
task. In other words, l herewith

Henry Zeulich, Farmer Living

Takes His Life
AFTER DOMESTIC TROUBLE
Suspected of Setting Fire to
Granary-Strychnine Is
Poison Route
AFTER DOMESTIC TROUBLE
Especial to the Tribune)


New Salem, Aug. 17-Henry Ecu
Itch, facing arrest, told people he
would never be taken to Mandan
alive. Shortly afterward he commit
ted suicide by taking strychnine.
A series of unhappy events led to
the tragic ending of the life of Mr.
zeulich. who was 67 years of age. Il
farmer and veterinarian.
Zeulich, according to information
given Coroner Kennedy, had been
served with divorce papers by his
wife. His wife had left the Zeulich
home, about 16 miles south of New
Salem, and went to the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Truss, going to sleep
in the granary. 81
Granary Fired
Sunday night the granary was set
on fire, but the fire was put out be-
fore great damage had been done and
Mrs. Zeulich escaped injury. Zeulich
was suspected and neighbors are
said to have traced buggy tracks to
the Zeulich home.
Again yesterday Zeulich is said to
have gone to the Truss home, appar-
emily seeking reconciliation with his
wife, but no one was at home. He
then went to the Fred Ritz home,
supposing she would be there. He
found several people at the home.
Zeulich has shotgun, which was
taken away from him and Sheriff Oh
son was called from Mandan.
Zeulich is reported to have said
that he would not be taken alive by
the sheriff, but when the sheriff came
he made no resistance. Sheriff Olson
searched him, suspecting he carried
a revolver. but only found a. small
bottle in his pocket. This apparently
contained some home brew"
Tries to Get Away
"You don't want to take that,
Zeulich is said to have told the She
riff. He then asked to go to the
barn and the sheriff started that way
Zeulich broke into run, but the
sheriff caught him. Zeulich drank
the contents of the bottle and threw
it into the grass. W
The sheriff and Zeulich then got
in the sheriff's car and started to
New Salem. They had gone about
two, miles when Zeulich stiffened out
An effort was made to get him to
a doctor, but he died on the way, and
was taken to an undertaking parloc
at New Salem.
Investigation showed, according to
Coroner Kennedy, that strychnine
had been put in the "home brew"
Zeulich had three children, one son
living on the farm, son in st. Louis
and one daughter, Mrs. Truss.
According to information reaching
here the difficulty between Zeulich
and his wife, who was his second
mate, had it's inception in the dis
position of insurance money left by
a son who was killed in the war.
The money, ut was said, had been
left to brother, instead of to the
parents.

LABOR NEEDS OF
SECTION FILLED,
.AGEN 7 ASSERTS
Sufficient Harvest Help Is Sc
cured for Burleigh C0un-
ty and Vicinity

The federal employment bureau
here reports that enough harvest la
Dor has been secured to supply the
present demand in the immediate vi
cinity of Bismarck.
Just at present there are a few
more men looking for harvest jobs
than there are jobs to be had, but
the surplus labor is rapidly being
shifted to other sections of the state
where labor is needed.
On the north branch there is still
some demand for harvest laborers,
but in the main the people of that
section are harvesting their own
crops. Years of poor crops have left
them in debt and in many sections
the women and children are helping
with the harvest in order to clear as
much as possible from the years
crop.
Plenty of Work Here.
The demand for some kinds of la
Dor is still strong. The paving con-
tractors are taking or all the men
they can get for help with the con-
crete paving on Main street. The
Foundation company at work on the
Bismarck -Mandan bridge, are in need
of help and using as many men as
they can get. The Colwell-Long com.
pany, building the s. new memorial
building, can use men.
All harvest hands applying for
work at the local office are being
taken care of, either being sent to
nearby jobs, a few of which occasion
ally show up, or alse are directed to
some section-of the state where Ia
Dor is needed.
