 Death in Fractional Fight

Chicago, Jan. IS (UP)-A chruch row here has eliminated with the indictment of IT persons on charges of manslaughter.
 Those indicted, all prominent in local church affairs, are charged with responsibility for the death of Mrs. Anna Rucinska, house. keeper for the Rev. Boleslaus No- wakowski, pastor of St. Mary's Ro- man Catholic church, of which the indicted are members.
 The grand jury. in voting the indictments, said that it was of the opinion that Mrs. Ruckinska died of shock superinduced by being manhandled and thrown bodily from the parsonage by an angry mob of parishioners, among whom were the defendants"
 In telling of the beginning of the trouble. Nowakowski said it was caused by an assessment he placed on the church members.
 We are a poor church," he said. Recently we have had to have more money to run our pa rochial school or else close it. I placed a s17 assessment against the church members who could afford to pay it.
 Immediately a furore of resent ment arose which divided the parishioners into two warning fac tions. I was threatened with be ing kicked out and soon the anil mostly of my enemies was turned on Mrs. Rucinska, my housekeep- CT
 Then defamatory letters about the parish began to appear. Mrs. Rucinska was accused by some of sending these and it was demanded of me that I fire her. l was con- vinced of her innocence and would not do it.
 The trouble grew Sunday when a mob stormed the parish house. They damned their way into my study shouting. throw him out The women got after Mrs. Rucin- ska"
 The crowd administered a se- were beating to the housekeeper before she managed to escape. A short time later she staggered into a railway station, bleeding and la cerated, and died without making a statement.

Take these little dark green capsules as directed and in about 24 hours you should be able to notice that they have considerably reduced if not al- most banished those severe, tortur- ing pains that have caused you so many sleepess nights.
