DENIES USING

DR.. Roy Ouderkirk on Stand I'm Own
Defense = Cathert0n Tells Of
Boys Reputation.

DR.. Roy E. Ouderkirk, Reynolds,
who with his wife, Edith Ouder-
kirk, is on trial in county court on
a charge of assault and battery
made by Myles Aurand, on orphan
whom they had received into their
home, denied in substance the ale
cations Of cruelty made by the
youth.
DR.. Ouderkirk declared that he
had never used buggy whip to
chastise the boy, saying that he did
not own one at the time related by
the youth. He said on occasions
he took the lad by the shoulders
and shook him when punishment
was considered necessary.
Arther Catherton, Maple Grove,
ILL.,, was produced as witness for
the defense. Catherton had Myles
in his home before the boy became
the ward of the Ouderkirks. He
told the jury that he had SO much
trouble with him. that he finally
turned the boy back to the institu-
ton. His testimony tended to show
that the boys reputation for YER
acity and good behavior was not
favorable. On cross-examination he
recited acts of questionable nature
which he said Myles was guilty of
while under his care.

SUICIDE WIDOW
TAKES own LIFE
Prepares for Deed by Sending VAL

Husband Killed Self.

Mrs. James Kelly, aged 26, open
ed a gas jet in her rooms at 81
West Third street, Davenport, last
night, and ended her life. De-
spondency over the death Of her
husband, who committed suicide
last January by blowing the top OF
his head off with a gun shot, caus-
ed her to take her own life.
Evidence that her suicide was not
an impulsive deed, but one con-
templated for some time, was the
fact that she prepared her per-
sonal effects before her death. Yes
terday she sent most of her cloth
ing and $4,000 in a trunk to her
father in Nashville, Tenn.
