City in Brief
On their way for a week's trip in the Black Hills, Dr. Peters and A.L.
Haecker will attend the opening of a new dairy in Hemingford. They started
yesterday.
Mrs. L. Madarasz, wife of the former teacher in the Lincoln business college
who tried to commit suicide in Omaha the other day, has arrived in Omaha from
the east, and will take her husband back with her, she having secured a position
for him. She blames a postoffice clerk for being the immediate cause of her
husband's troubles. He was to have received a letter from the east and every day
for a week inquired at the office for it. He did not get it and Madarasz became
despondent and determined to die. Mrs. Madarasz has obtained the letter. It was
withheld by the clerk because he read the initial "L" as "S". She is of the
opinion that the unusual name could have identified the man well enough, and has
told the clerk and a few other postoffice officials so.
