Something Wrong
 on Bread Tickets

Vienna, May 22.-While the recently completed city census showed Vienna to have population of approximately 1 ,8O0,000. it has been discovered that over 2,000,000 bread tickets are in cir culation. The loss on this excess ra- ton is estimated at 1000 carliads of flour year.
 The explanation is that families fail to report deaths or departures of members to obtain the additional ra- ton for themselves or sell the tickets to the left-hand trade. The matter has been placed in the hands of the police for investigation and remedy.

almost instant death was in the head

fell. The character Of the ground
and marks that surround where the
the body was found tend to support
the theory of it being accidental.

boys at noon, It is thought that the
discharge of a gun was heard near
