Joe Janda, 182 South Eighteenth street South Bide, was found dead yesterday afternoon about 4:30 o'clock or a wooded hillslde near Childs Point, several miles below the soith city lmits. The man nad been killed with a shotgun by an un- identified assailant while picking grapes. Police belleve that a farmer in the dis- trict where the man was trespassing fired the shot, but as yet have no clue, In company with seven or elght friends among whom was John Kucerek, living at Eighteenth and Q streets, Janda had gone on a wild grape hunt, starting early Sunday morning. Becoming lost to his friends, they returned home late in the morning thinking that he had already preceded them. His absence was discov- ered and after a fruitiess all-night wait for his return a search was organized yesterday afternoon which led to the dis- covery of the body late in the day. Cries for help followed by three rapidly succeeding shotgun shots were heard by Kucerek, an intimate friend of the mur- dered man, shortly after their parting while on the grape hunt. At the time the incident caused little anxiety for his friend's fety, but now Kuoerek be- lieves that Janda was probably being tacked at that time. Janda is survived by a widow and one child by the mother's first husband. He was 2 years of age and was only re- cently married. Sheriff Hutter of Sarpy county took charge of the case. Friend Kills Friend as Result of Quarrel on South Side Street John C. Carroll, ltving at Twenty-fifth and Q streets, was cut to death yester- day afternoon at 5:40 o'clock before a grocery store at Twenty-seventh and Q streets by his intimate friend and room- mate, Pat Dwyer. The cutting followed a quarrel of long standing, starting while the two men lived in Chicago. A small jack knife was the weapon used Three deep wounds, fully a foot long. severed the heart, kidneys and jugular veln, causing a:nost instant death. De- tectives Gl nd Allen arrested Dwyer a few moments after the murder. The latter made no attempt to escape Carroll and Dwyer have lived for twen- ty-five years together, working as butch- ers in packing houses of Chicago, Kansas City and Omaha during that time. A quarrel over some personal prejudice hreatened to separate the two some months ago in Chicago and police belleve that the same quarrel was renewed Carroll has relatives in Chicago, a sis- ter, Mrs. Mary Jenkins, living at Thirty- sixth and Long John street, and a urother, Larry Carroll, who Is either a policeman or a fireman of Chicago Both had been roommates at an ad- dress given as 2112 West Thirty-fifth street, Chicago. Carroll was unmarried and appeared about 35 or 40 yvears of age. | Bruning Editor Rescuer of Beauty A bold rescuer of beauty M distress is | A. 8.
