Evangelist Finds Himself a Target For Rotten Eggs The troubles of the Rev. Mr. Wimmer, cowboy evangelist, did not end when he betook himself to Mills recently, the transient pas- tor discovered Tuesday night. Busying himself with nosing out the alleged stench rising from what he alleged was an immoral atmosphere, the Rev, Wimmer discovered during his discourse that a very stench was rising about him. It was the odor of czgs—eggs that had been kept too long, and were now being gotten rid of at And they were coming toward him. They were flying about his head. The Rev. Wimmer was raising his voice against the sins of man- kind, People had gathered to hear him. Attracted by a voice that was loud if not dulcet, many per- sons, as if discovering a new and unheard of phenomenon, were lis- tening intently. A band of masked men rushed to the scene, Previous efforts had Leen futile, and an old method now was to be relied on to give impetus to the exit of the “up- Ufter.” ‘The white and fragile nissiles flew ‘through the air which im- mediately ‘betame heavy. Unfor- tunately, it is held, many of the eggs flattened themselves against other bodfes than that of the preacher. He seemed to escape with but few marks of battle, but with his meeting broken up as thoroughly as the sulphurous mis- siles that had been used for the occasion, Wimmer has been seeking ref- uge where he may hurl his invec- tives agal the community since he was driv short time ago, So discovered a) haven. far he’ has THE LITTLE GIRL IN PIXE where she was shot to death, en out of Casper a jut play in Montelair, N.

Cook, 41, local Women’s Christian Tem- perance Union president and active dry worker in Iowa, was shot and killed by an unknown assailant Monday night. This will undoubtedly be the verdict of a coroner’s jury which will resume deliberations this morning, officers said. Coroner C. L. Modlin declared that he and other officers were “utterly baffied” in their attempt to get even an inkling of information that might lead to the arrest of a person sus- pected of killing the music teacher, chureh worker and prohibition cru- sader, Mrs. Cook was shot through the heart as she sat in her home here, preparing an address to be delivered before a W. C. T. U. meeting.
