D., Dec. , 11—The family and heighbors of Louisa Stoeéker, wife of Johannes Stoecker residing” seven miles northeast of Lehr, were . shocked upon learging that Mrs. Stoecker- had taken her own life. Mr, and Mrs. Stoecker arose at 7 a. m. They intended to go to Lehr that day. She started preparation of the morning meal and he went to the barn to do the chores. Their six children, the eldest fourteen and the youngest four, were still: asleep up stairs when Mr. Stoecker left the house. After a half hour had passed Mr. Stoecker started from the barn to the house. At that, moment his daughter, Otillia, thirteen, appeared and asked “Is mother at the barn?” The* father replied “No,” and @ search was made at* once, resulting in finding the unfortunate woman hanging on a 4x6 center support in the cellar of their summer house nearby.. Mr, Stoecker severed the rope and himself~and daughter car- ried the lifeless woman to the top of the cellar stairs. All efforts to restore her were unsuccessful. Mrs. Stoecker had used a cow barn tie rope, which she run through a small shawl around” her neck and tied to a big spike on’ the post, haying stood upon a small keg and then, evidently, having leaped from or kicked the keg away and strangl- ed herself to death The unfortunate woman had been jn poor health for_ the past two years. MUST PAY NOTE OF $3,000 GIVEN TO F. B. WOOD (By the Associated Prebs.) - Fargo, N. D., Dee, 11—A rote for $8,000, which he said he executed in favor of F. B. Wood as an “acco- modation” and for the sole purpos» of deceiving the supreme court, if necessary, as to\ the financial condi- tion of the Scandinavian-American Bank, must be paid by Fred Matthys, of Cass county with 8 percent in- terest from Decembag 20, 1919, a jury in Cass county district court decided carly yesterday morning. Matthys’ deferMe was that he gave the note to Mr. Wood “without con- sideration” to make it appear that the bank had good assets. He charged that, there was a conspiracy between ‘A.

Hy elections andthe suggested organiza- tion of a thitd political. party gave members of the Gridiron club humor and satire inabundance at their an- nual banquet. The December frolic of the clu] which is composed largely of Wash- ington newspaper men, entertained President Harding, Vice President Coolidge, members of the cabinet and of the diplomatic corps, other government officials and business men and publishers from all sections of the country. The numerous picketings which hae become common in this city since women suffragists paraded before the White House, made the basis for the greeting to the assembling guests. Club members dressed in Italian fascisti costumes met them at the goors with appropriate banners, One, typical of the group, bore the ques- tion: “Mr, President, are you with us or against us? The hour has come.” The third party skit.was the fea- ture of the dinner. Around a large kettlé three members dressed as witches and representing Senators Borah, LaFollette and Johnson, con- cocted a devil’s brew, Borah recit- ing: “Round about the cauldon go, In new party issue throw. Knocks of ~ayery known condition, Russian soviet recognition, Blocs the standpat goat hath got Boil thou first in the charmed’ pot.” All the witches insisted the new brew should not only have a kick but should be composed of kicks. This led Borah to soliloquize on the question whether it were better ‘to stay within the party the administration, thereby affording the Democrats, much glee, or be a new party mat in name as well in deed. Senator Beveridge then nounced his willingness to join, ex- plaining: “Twice have I switched, each. time in turn rejected, T seek some haven now + can be elected.” The act closed with Henry Ford| where I out consideratioh” on the promise that they would never, have to be! paid.
