FRANK JELINEK MURDER IN THE COUNTY JAIL Herman Bluttig was killed in the county jail on Tuesday by a fellow prisoner named Frank Jelinek, during a quarrel, in a very peculiar manner. The fatal blow was struck with a little stick, scarcely more than a splinter, which Jelinek had previously used to light his pipe. The splinter entered the back of the neck and then to the lungs. Bluttig died on Tuesday evening of internal hemorrhage, the chest being filled with blood. The fatal blow was struck in the morning. Both men were awaiting trial for burglary. Jelinek was one of the men implicated in breaking into Blesch's store some months ago. At least the stolen goods were found in his house. He is miserably poor and a sort of worthless fellow. Last winter he sought aid from the city and was then almost in a starving condition. He is rather a weak looking man, and it is difficult to understand how he could have struck with sufficient force to kill a man with a splinter of wood not much over one foot in length and one inch in width. Bluttig was arrested for breaking into the house of a man named Schroeder, a resident of Kiel. He was a kind of tramp and not of very strong mind. Some time ago he stood trial on a charge of having set fire to the property of Peter Hoffman of Centerville. The two men were inclined to quarrel at various times, though they never before came to blows. On this occasion Bluttig called Jelinek a vile name and approached him in a threatening manner. Jelinek claims that Bluttig was about to draw a knife and he struck in self-defense. It is certain he had no intention of killing the other. Tuesday was the day fixed for his trial for burglary. The case was in progress when Bluttig died. He was quite certain of conviction but the district attorney asked that a verdict of guilty of receiving stolen goods be rendered so that the prisoner might be kept in custody here. Bluttig was sitting up a short time before his death, and even walked about a little. His slayer is very much depressed and sits by himself the very picture of dispair. His trial for manslaughter will possibly not take place until the January term. Manitowoc Co. Chronicle (Two Rivers), June 16, 1891

NEWTON JONES The Sheboygan Telegram of Saturday says: The case against Joseph G. Mallmann, charged with taking a sum of money from Newton Jones of Manitowoc, who was here on a glorious drunk about ten days ago, was called in the municipal court this morning. The complainant did not put in an appearance and the case was dismissed and costs taxed against the complainant. It looks very much as though the charge was one that should not have been made. The probability is that Jones spent the money he missed when he became sober, for he threw it around with unexampled liberality while he was "on the turf" here. It may be said for Mr. Mallmann that no one who knows him has believed for one moment that the charge had any foundation in fact. June 26, 1899, Manitowoc Daily Herald

EDDIE JORSCH HURT BY A DOG. Eddie Jorsch Has His Face Badly Marked By a Dogs Teeth. Eddie Jorsch and the large St. Bernard, which boards at the Williams House came in contact with each other yesterday evening and the boy got the worst of it. Just how it happened seems impossible to determine as there are so many stories in circulation in regard to the matter. At any rate the dog's teeth made a bad impression on the lad's face. There was a cut over one eye and several other scratches on the face but nothing of a very serious nature. The boy was taken into Buerstatte's drug store where his wounds were attended to It is thought that the dog suddenly threw his head around and accidentally struck the child in the face. The animal is not in the least of a vicious nature and is a great favorite about the hotel. He has also on different occasions displayed a remarkable degree of intelligence. His friends are loath to believe that he would maliciously attack the child. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Tuesday, January 17, 1899 P. 1

DELORES JUUL SKIN GRAFTING RESORTED TO IN CASE OF LITTLE DOLORES JUUL, BURNED MONTH AGO AT SCHOOL Sister of Injured Girl Submits To Operation Today And Gives Skin to Cover Wounds Which Failed To Heal Skin grafting was resorted to today by physicians attending Dolores Juul, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Juul, who four weeks ago sustained severe burns to her body when she collided with and upset a pail of hot water intended for scrubbing. The accident happened at the high school and the little girl was badly burned about the lower limbs. The wounds failed to heal and physicians decided that skin grafting was necessary and today Viola Juul, sister of the injured girl, submitted to an operation and several inches of skin from her body was removed and grafted upon the leg of her sister. The operation was performed at the Holy Family hospital where the child has been a patient and was witnessed by several local physicians. It is believed that the operation will be successful and that the child will recover. The accident to the Juul child happened while the girl was hurrying from one room to another for rehearsal of a school program. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Wednesday, November 10, 1915, Page 1
