Butte Red Cross drive tops quota for flood relief
Butte residents pushed the Red Cross flood relief drive over its $1,000 goal with a $100 donation from Broadway theater management and smaller gifts from Cristofero Colombo Society and Divideon Grocery. A charity entertainment at Temple Ballroom was arranged, with proceeds to flood sufferers. Chief organizer Mrs. Sol Genzberger praised supporters and noted ongoing relief needs as Butte’s total nears $4,000 with further contributions planned.

Triple tragedy prompts estate battle in court
In a May 19 hearing Judge J J Lynch will review a suit filed by D G Bertozzio as administrator of Madeline Schmidt Borelli against Genevieve Taylor and the estates of Bertha Schmidt and Ottila Schmidt. The case questions whether Borelli died before her mother and if Borelli’s estate can share in Schmidt's. The Schmidt estate, valued around 20000, includes 18000 in personal property and 6900 in real property. The Borelli estate is appraised at 250 and Miss Schmidt at 14036. The tragedy at the Colorado street residence on November 18 1925 left Borelli dead along with Bertha Schmidt and Ottila Schmidt after Borelli fatally wounded them and herself. The only surviving heir is Borelli’s husband, reportedly in Chicago.
