DEATH BEING PROBED
REMAINS OF W. C. FOWLER, OF ENTER
PRISE, EXHUMED FOR EXAMINATION.
STOMACH BEING ANALYzED.

To decide the actual cause of the
death of William c. Fowler, a farmer
Of Enterprise, known as Gypsy Hill
States-AttOrney Theodore F. Browr
Tuesday morning had the body re
moved from its grave at st. James
Church cemetery, at Winfield, by c
VI. Waltz, funeral director. anC
brought to the F. a. Sharrer q Sons
funeral parlors at Main and Wash,
ington road, where that afternoon, q
! jury OF inquest impaneled by Police
Justice Robert +. Lee HutchinS, act
ing as Coroner, viewed the body. and
/ adjourned to a later day. The jurors
were Walter II. Davis, Wm. II. Payn-
ter, Abraham Price, Samuel L. Little
John II. Lester. Vernon Chrest, John
Poisel, Edward Chrest, Geo. W Hon
S. c. Stoner, John Yingiing and John
L. Eckenrode.
Under the direction of the county
health officer DR.. l.. X. Woodward an
autopsy was made by DR.. NJ. J. Nal
deis, of the. State Board OF Health. and
the stomach OF the dead man was TAX
en- to Penniman & Browne. Baltimore.
to determine whether there was ar
Senic in the stomach On November
IS. DR.. +. ID. Cronk, the regular ply
Sician of Fowler, was requested by a
note brought to him by a half-witted
messenger. and presumably signed by
Fowler. TO give Il prescription to kill
rats. The prescription was filled at
BOyle's Pharmacy, and a request was
made on November -, that the pre-
scription be renewed, which was
done.
Fowler died on November so and
was buried in St. James Church ccm-
"tcry, near Winfield. on December ?
The information in the death certiti-
cate was given by BERTHE NJ. Fowler.
his wife, and DR.. l.. c. Stittlcy, as at
tending physician. 1t specifically stat
ed that Fowler was 45 years OF age
and was painter by trade His death
was stated to have been caused by
septic pneumonia and lead poisoning.
Mr. Stittley. who is the attending ply
sician of Mrs. Fowler, was only call
I'd in the day before her husbands
death and was told that Fowler had
been ailing for several days.
1t is said that Fowler had not fol-
lowed his trade of painting for about
a year. but had been living at his
farm. His relations with his wife are
said not to have been pleasant. 1t has
been told to the authorities that it
was a case of the triangle with ChaS
II. Bull. a blacksmith and Il preacher
of the Pentecostal Christians. occup-
ing the third angle. Bull came from
Baltimore some time ago and, after a
protracted stay with Thomas j.
Hamm, during which time. it is said,
he was a persistent visitor to the
Fowler household. he, on November
%, went TO the Fowler house TO board
just five days before Fowler died.
There is much interest in this case
in the section about Winfield, eight
miles from Westminster. and the ac-
tion taken by States Attorney Brown
is the result OF investigation made by
him, which, he says, leads him to feel
that he is justified in carrying the
case TO the end.

Princess OF India Who
Died In California, Was
Once In Jail Al Mandan

Mandan, n. D., March 25.-The
only person Of royal blood ever to
serve time in the Morton county
Jail is dead. Mrs. Thomas Rod
man. according to information
received here, died OF pneumonia
at q little farm home near Pasa-
dcna, Calf.
Her husband when serving be.
fore the mast sailed into an In
dian port one day. He met a
Hindu princess and when the
7. craft left she accompanied him.
Her death recalls an incident of
1915 when the pair were arrest
cd on charge of violating North
DakOta's dry laws. Rodman had
been a bailfn in district court for
five years and had seen hundreds
of persons dealt with for LIQUOR
violations but the lesson failed to
stick.
Mr.. and Mrs. Rodman were
arrested at noon, waived exam
inadon before a Justice of peace
ut 1880, pleaded guilty at three
O'Clock and started serving 90
days each at 4 O'Clock, all in one
day.
1t was shortly after their re-
lease when they sported a new
automobile of fancy make. that
it became known that Rodman's
wife was of high caste, a princess
OF India, and had inherited a con.
siderable sum from her fathers
estate.

Coach DaUis of Varsity Quint
Tells Some of Uses of Dribble
Which He Has Found Successful

8. Where a player has an open
lane to the basket, he should drib-
BILE in for a short shot.
4. When a man is dribbling, he
should always pass to a teammate
who calls for the ball. If the latter
is not in a good position to receive
the ball. he is to- blame and not the
dribbler.
S. A team should look for a
chance to pass rather than a chance
to dribble, but the dribble should be
used when it is impossible to pass.
6. The dribble should be used a
great deal in practice because it
teaches men to handle the ball.
Z. Where 4 defensive man charges
an offensive man catching the ball,
the offensive mar may fake one way,
then reverse and dribble toward the
basket,

NORTH DAK0TAN
ON GIANT STAFF
Max Rachac of Cummings,
Practicing With Major
League Team.

San Antonio, Texas, March 27.-
Working with the Giant recruits is a
hoy with a big longing, the great de-
sire. He wants to be a star ball play
err.
Nothing else will do. No other
career means anything to him. His
name is Max Rachac, pronounced
Rock-ox. His fast ball has a hop to
it just like his name, for he is a clever
right hand speed" pitcher.
Max was born in Cummings. n. D..
20 years ago. He's a s~ix-footer. a
fine looking, big husky chap.
II used to read about the Giants
and John McGraw, and though we
in our country. I always stuck up for
New York. 1 never thought I'd get
a chance to pitch for them, though"
Max was tried out by the Salt Lake
City club two years 6 and EARNED
out He didn't want to go east so he
obtained his release and played with
the Billings. Mont, team. Last. year
the Vancouver a picked him up,
He won IS games and lost 10 with a
tall-end outfit and the Giants grab
bed him.
No mount of work. no amount of
running, "shagging' flies, those dis
ea'teAuA Pal Is VI d pltcEeFS prepara-
ton, can tire this youngster. He is
bound to go up there, as he puts it..
IT he gets h proper chance. his
great longing. ma come true. He
has the will to succeed and the deter
%n,i,at:cl to spare nothing, least OF all
himself, to accomplish his big longing.
Max Rachac of Cummings, n. D.,
candidate for a place on the pitching
staff of the New York Giants, is
we'll known in the eastern section of
North Dakota. AS a boy in Cum
rnings, Rachac was pitcher on a boys
team that used the yard in back of
the little country church as their
playground.
Later he b%ranched out into indie
pendent baseball and had most Of the
small town batters "breaking their
backs reaching for his fast one.
Nearly everyone who is acquainted
with Rachac is positive that the big
fellow will succeed. One of his boy
hood friends said MAX, as a boy,
showed a spirit of determination that
stamped him as a leader. It is thai
same spirit that will carry him high
in the ranks of organized baseball"
