A Very Sad Case.

Near Florisant, Illinois, lives small
farmer named Clement Harkins, with his
young wife. On Wednesday evening the
latter sent Harkius to Florisant for mid
wife. Half way toward Florisant Harlkins
wagon broke down, and he tied the team to
fence and walked the rest of the way
Being delayed, it was four hours before he
got home and when he did it was to dis
cover that his wife was missing. He traced
her footsteps towards a neighbours house,
about mile of, and found her body in the
roadside within fifty yards of her destina-
tion. 1t is supposed that she started for
the neighbors under the influence of fear
at her husbands prolonged absence.

A Family Dispute.

which fact is supposed to influence Mrs.
Wacherle's course. Wacherle used to live
in Carver, Mimi, where he was foreman
in machine shop. His wife induced him
to get into life insurance, and he soon got
the idea that she was in hurry for him
to die so he left Carver, and wandered
about the country for many years. Re-
Gently he returned to his old home, and
learned that his wife had accumulated al
legged evidence of his death. She refuses
to admit his identity, and demands the
$1,000.
