Of smaller stature than Anderson,
whom intimates say had been
drinking heavily, was down on the
cafe floor under Anderson when he
finally pulled a pistol and shot his
attacker.
Lived Only Is Minutes
Anderson lived only Is minutes
after the shooting. Boyd, who was
cut in the side and neck, was re-
moved to a hospital under custody.
Anderson, a few days previous, had
chOked Arthur Allen, a salesman,
into almost Inconsistencies fol-
lowing a quarrel
Jack was a member of a party
given by an older brother, JEFF D.
Anderson, Pullman employee, at
the home of o. A. Gum, 638 st.
Anthony Avenue, Thursday night.
Shortly after midnight, some of
the members of the party went to
the New Nifty Cafe for supper.
They were occupying two tables in
the new addition. Seated at the
tables were Audrey Beatrice, Ada
Smith, Deloris Vassar, Marie
Houston, JEFF and Jack Anderson,
Sam Sharp, and an out-of-town
student. Jack Anderson becoming
ineensed at something or some
body, turned over a table splling
food and drink over the floor and
guests.
Ordered From Cafe
Boyd ran into the dining room
and demonstrated with him finally
ordering him out of the cafe.
Friends of Anderson got him out
side once, twice, and when he re-
turned the third time, he is said
to have pulled a knife and cut
Boyd on the neck.
The two men were separated and
JEFF Anderson took his brother out
of the cafe again and took him
home, he thought to stay.
Returns To Death
Thirty minutes later Jack Ander-
son returned to the cafe, walked up
to Boyd, knife in hand and began
using abusive language. He showed
Boyd into the corner and the fight
ensued. With Boyd on the floor
and Anderson knitting him, the
cafe emptied of all but few more
intrepid who sought ways to halt
the fight. Boyd found a way to
halt it by pulling a gun which he
had taken off a shelf when Ander-
son came toward him with the
knife.
Spectators, questioned by the
police, including a woman member
of the party whose table Anderson
tipped, all told stories which cor
roborated Boyd's version which in
dicated a pure case of self defense.
Hammond Turner, st. Paul at
torney, represented Boyd.

were held at 5 p. M, Tuesday,

ct professional pilot fly the ma chine and, so far as was known lever handled the controls him self But as one of a small group of flying governors he preached md fostered aviation, sponsoring one of the first codes of state air laws and always stressing the inn portance of well lighted and marked airways and airports.
 Mrs. Kohler frequently flew with him about the state and two of their our sons became licensed pilots, earning to fly at Kohler airport.
 Born in Wisconsin
 The governor was stocky and stur- dy and of Austrian descent. He was born at Sheboygan March 3, 1875, and made the city or it's vi- cinity his home throughout his life.
 His well-knit body stood him in good stead in 1929 when he had to undergo a serious operation at the Mayo hospital in Rochester, Minn. He recovered quickly from this ill- ness, which, his helpers said, was induced at least partly by his un- sparing efforts to manage simultan- eously Wisconsin's two greatest con- cerns-the state government and his own plant.
 Mrs. Kohler frequently was at her husbands side in his public affairs. Before their marriage on November 3. 1900, sine was c arlotte H. Schroeder of Kenosha, Wis. The four sons born to them were John Mich ael. Walter Jodok, Jr, Carl James and Robert Eugene. All grew up to aid their father in business.
 MI. Kohler was a commmicant of the Protestant Episcopal Church and active in many charitable and welfare projects. His benefactions, however, were seldom made public.
