FIVE WOMEN DIE IN
 DISTILLED COTTAGE
Minnesota Hotel Employes Die Dur. Ing Meal Hour-Poison Food
 Theory Is Abandoned,

Hbbing, Minn,, Nov, g P-Acct- dental asphyXiation probably caused the death of five women whose bodies were found in a cottage here, is ,he opinion of officials today.
 The bodies of the women. all em- ployed in local hotel, were found yesterday at the home of Mrs, Ella Kuusisto, one of the victims, The others were Mrs. Mary Ermatinger, &5; Mrs. Ida Hardy SC; Miss Mary Hezzng. 25. and Miss Katherine Greene. "5.
 A ten-year old daughter ot Mrs. Kuusisto's discovered the tragedy when she returned home from q visit. Finding the doors locked and unable to arouse any one. she sum moned neighhors who forced their way In.
 1 A gas jet was open and the house 1 was filled with the fumes, The women apparently had been eating when overcome by the gas. Another theory advanced, however, was that some poison in the food or wine they had been drinking might have been responsible for their deaths but officials were inclined to dis count thls angle.
 Mrs. Ermatinger's body was lay ing in the bathroom doorway and Mrs. Hardy lay next 10 her on the l Fonr Mrs kuusiSto anD1rHOtlV ! had been trying 10 reach a daven- port when she collapsed, Miss Herz- aing was found near th" Kitchen gas range, while the body of Miss Greene was lying in the center of the ! kitchen floor.

OUTSIDE OF MAIN
EVENT, BRAWLEY
CARD GOOD One

With the exception the main
event, which proved to be fiasco
{ because of Herb Peterson s unwill-
ingness TO fight, the boxing card
presented in the Brawley ring last
night was an excellent one, and de-
served II much better crowd than
was OIL hand, many being kept away
by the cold weather.
Peterson, rcputel to be a color
ed flash from the coast, WAS colorcd
enough, and he was a flash--in the
pan. lie lost the fight to Joe Brown
III the third round, going TO the
floor the second time after having
Mcfarland didn't even bother 10
count, but raised Brown s hand.
Peterson took the first round,
scoring knock-down over Brown,
and had he not been scared almost
to death, he might have gone the
route with the Mexican champion.
After taking a couple of solid
smaslfes" from the white boy, Peter
son had plenty, and thereafter re-
fused to do any fighting.
The battle of the evening, one of
the most exciting suggests ever
seen in the valley, was the semi
+ final six round 60 between Kid Mex
OF this city ana Young Ontario of
Brawlcy. Mex took the decision af-
ter he had hit Ontario with every
thing but the ring posts throughout
the fight. Ontario did plenty of
walloplng himself, and for the
/ greater part of the fight the two
battlers stood toe to toe and slug
gcd away. .es-
Sailor Frank took the decision
from Young Leonard OF FL Centre
in four round bout, the sailor lead
ing his colored opponent i'll every
round. Leonard might have been
able to do something if he had been
willing to take IA chance, but he
contented himself with fighting a
cautious scrap.
After betting Al Brown all over
the ring in the first round, Babe
Northern of FL Centre shot his bolt
and took beating for the next
three rounds Brown scoring knock
downs in the third and fourth
rounds, the latter one being for the
count of nine. Low blows by Brown
had Northern worried, though they
were not low enough to do any
damage.
Young Corbctt and Battling John
son fought draw in the curtain

There was quite a gang of FL Cen
