Pioneering Cheyenne Mother-in-law Dies at 66
Mrs James Jijlich, mother in law to Judge J A Riner of the U S district court, collapsed and died at Omaha after a giant firecracker exploded in front of Inder Riner's home. She was 66 and a Cheyenne pioneer. Emma Demuth, at Rossland B C, reportedly took carbolic acid by mistake, believed to be medicine after two years of illness, leaves a husband and eight children. In Kielce Warsaw a large strike occurred in sympathy with Lod rioters, rail station attacked, freight sheds wrecked, troops ordered in. A post office embezzlement case in Jeper settlement referred to U S District Attorney Breckens but unlikely to prosecute due to lack of jail. BE G Southwell, 46, of Granite Falls Wash, was horsewhipped by Mrs Charles Smith for attempting to assault her daughter, threatened with a revolver and beaten.
