SHOOTING AFFAIR AT GLE
EARLY SUNDAY EVENING
Big Leo" Laguna Shot and Killed by
His BrOther-in-law, Gabriel Da-
Pra, During Family Quarrel.


As climax TO what is believed
to have been family quarrel, Leo
La3una, known as Big Leo was
shot and killed at his home in Gle
early Sunday evening. Eight shots
were fired. all of which struck
Laguna in the head, face and body
death resulting instantly.
The assailant, Gabriel DePra,
brother in. law of the murdered
man, evaded the authorities until
Tuesday morning, when he gave
himself up. He was arraigned on
a charge of manSlaughter and his
bail fixed at $40 900. DePra was
unable to furnish bail and was re.
manded to Jail to await the hear
ing to be held on October 10.
The story of the shooting is to
the effect that Laguna had been
quarreling with his wife during the
afternoon and evicted her from the
home. With three of the children
she sought refuge at the home of
her brother next door. In the
evening she returned to the home,
thinking that her husband was
absent, According to Atty. James
Flandrena, counsel for DaPra,
Laguna had a rifle in his hands
when his wife returned to the home
and he made threats of taking her
life. 1t is also claimed that he fired
four shots at her. Her brother,
DePra, was attracted by the screams
of Mrs. Laguna and running to the
home grabbed the rifle in the hands
of Laguna, wrestled with him and
attempted to take the weapon away
from him. Failing in this he pull
ed an automatic revolver and fired
eight shots at Laguna, all of which
took effect. The shooting is said
TO have taken place in the dark
there being no light in the Laguna
home II was about 8 o'clock in
the evening.
According to persons acquainted
with Laguna he bore an unsavory
reputation, was quarrelsome, in
trouble frequently and was gener-
ally feared. He was a man CT
powerful physique and glorifed in
his physical strength. On one
occasion some time ago he is said
to have attacked a mine police with
a knife and is known to have had
physical encounters with neighbors
on a number of occasions. He
worked as a miner at one time but
for the past eight months had been
out of work. The family lacked
funds and barely eked out an exis-
tence, according to neighbors.
There are five children, three girls
and two boys, ranging in ages from
4 to IA years.
DaPra is a young man about 25
years of age. He served two years
in France during the late war and
is member of the local Post of
the American Legion.
Laguna was buried in the local
cemetery Thursday afternoon at
public expense.

The Bayfield, city team was no
match for the Hurley Legion team
in the game at the local ball park
Sunday afternoon. The visitors
had the material for a good football
team but the boys showed lack of
practice and were not familiar with
their signals. 1t was evidently a
picked up bunch sent down here to
do battle with Hurley. The score
was 50 too.
Hurley made most of its points
on straight football. The local
boys tore though the Bay ield line
at will and the first touchdown was
made within FIVE minutes after the
game started. Hurley resorted 10
forward passes but seldom, being
able to made gains on straight foot
ball. A number of long runs for
touchdowns were made, however
Lawler and Sybeldon made some
spectacular chases down the field
In the first half Hurley made
seven touchdowns and kicked goal
four times. Two touchdowns and
one goal in the second half brought
the score to 50. Hurley's lineup
was changed often by sending i'll
substitutes, so that almost every
man in the local squad had chance
to play.
1t may not be generally known
to the natives of this city but Hur-
ley has the markings for a cracker
jack of a football team. With lots
of practice and the proper coaching
the team is going to be one of the
best in this neck of the woods be-
tore the season is over. The boys
are working hard and need the sup
port of the community. They have
uniforms enoughfor two full teams,
a heavy outlay of money being
necessary to secure the outfits. The
attendance last Sunday could have
been better. The boys need the
financial assistance of the fans. IT'S
the first time we have had a foot
ball team outside of the high school
and it's one that deserves the same
support from the fans that is ac-
corded our baseball team.

old timers, and barring the one
instance of where they filled the
engine base with maple syrup in
stead of oil, they have had the

Saturday returning from Rhine

Eagle River, and, with the roads
a glare of ice, could not stop when
the dog hit 'em head on and the
result is they rolled him for about

LOCALS WONBALLCAME
Snappiest Exhibition of Team
Work Shown at Fridays
Game.

And it was a truly the best and
cleverest team work shown by any
team on the home floor since bas-
ketball has been played in Eagle
River; the local team was there
with the real quality stuff-and
put it over for a real herman
winner.
The Minocqua high school team
was played off its feet in tn e
game here Friday with the local
highs. While both teams played
a fast game, superior team work
by the local boys and accurate
shooting soon left the visitors far
in the rear. 1t was one of the
best games to watch from h e
side lines that we have h a d on
our floor this season. The one-sid-
ed score of 46 to 10 by no means
indicates an easy victory, as Min
ocqua fought to the finish. Bent's
accurate free throwing, six bas-
kets out of eight attempts, and
Johnson's spectacular shooting i n
the second half were the outstand-
ing features of the game. Early
in the contest butcher was dis
abled and Belongy substituted.
The latter played splendidly, Gag
ing three baskets, and playing the
ball like an old hand at the game.
He will be a valuable addition TO
the team in another year.
The team journeys down state
Friday where a strong effort will
be made to even up scores with
the fast Mattoon boys. o

ine little village in Outaeamie county.
They resided in that village for three
wears. removing TO Clintonville. From
1874 to 1890 ClintonvilIe held them as
citizens. Coming to Eagle River in he
year 1890, they have been Identified with
US for ova thirty years. Up to few
years ago, Mr.. and Mrs. Stevens resided
upon a farm a couple miles outside the
