TT seems TO me that there are
no more pleasant and really sim
ple-hsarted folk IN the world
than the Spanish peasants. They
take an infinite pleasure in the few
recreations and amusements which
life offers them. they make the most
OF that which Is az hand and they
derive vast satisfaction from their
lore and superstitions. True. they
may at first seem suspicious OF
strangers. but once they have ever
come their own natural ~reticence
they become friendly in the extreme.
But perhaps ] am doing an injus-
tice - the many hospitable people
that one viii find an over the world.
Perhaps my feelings have been
brought about nv thinking OF noun

De Gredos mountains or Spain.

Ago, Dies Instantly
HEAD IS SEVERELY GASHED
Young Man and Brother We're
Chopping Hole in Ice for
Cattle to Drink

Death. quick and unexpected, has
eXtinguished the spark Of a young
life and snapped a short romance.
While cutting a hole in the ice Of
Square Butte creek about l p. m. yes
terday, M. Matt Heck, q, who was
married only two months ago, slipped
and fell. His head struck a sharp
corner of ice and he died instantly,
in the belief of his brother, Fred, who
was helping him. The ice cut a Sc
we're cash in the left side of his head.
The accident occurred about II
miles north of Mandan, in Oliver
county. not far from Harmon.
Matt had had a haircut and shave
during the noon hour. Shortly before
/ o'clock, he and his brother Fred
left for the creek, planning to cut a
hole in the ice that their cattle might
drink. Fred IA chopping big chunks
out of the ice and Matt was shovel
ing them away. Then he slipped and
was killed.
Matt, who was born in Russia, had
lived in the vicinity OF Harmon most
of his life. Last November he was
married to Miss Marian Berger at st.
Vincent's Roman Catholic church and
more than 200 persons attended the
nuptial ceremonies and celebration.
He and his wife had been living on
the Heck farm since.
Matt leaves his young widow, two
brothers. Ralph and Fred, and one
sister. Eva. all living on farms in the
Harmon vicinity.
Funeral services probably will be
conducted at St. Vincent's church at
10 a. m. tomorrow and interment will
be made in the st. Vincent's ceme-
terry.
The young mans brother-in-law,
Anton Berger. and neighbor. Frank
Geiger, reported the incident to John
K. Kennedy, Morton county coroner,
in Mandan this morning. Kennedy
believes that H. c. Martin. Oliver
country coroner. will judge the death
accidental and deem a coroner's in
quest unnecessary.
