THE DEATH OF THOMAS CHADECK.
Circumstances Which Indicate that the I'm
fortunate Man Was Killed by His Wife.

AMIGO, Wis, Dee. 3-The tragic death of
Thomas Chadeck, the postmaster at Deer Brook,
remains shrouded in mystery, although all the
circumstances surrounding the ease indicate that
it was not case of selfdestruetion The loea-
ton of the wounds in Chadeek's body make it
plain that Mrs. Chadecks statement that he
shot himself is incorrect. The most plausible
theory is that Mrs. Chadeck did the
shooting herself. This is supported by the fol-
lowing circumstances: On Sunday night last
Mrs Chadeck got her husbands revolver out
of the store and threatened to shoot him.
AT that time two of her children took
the weapon away from her. 1t is said that she
then intimated her intention to again get the
pistol and carry it with her. On Monday
afternoon she visited a house of ques-
tionable character, where she met Charles
Sanford. with whom it was charged that she has
been intimate for some time. Then her husband
called for her. and, according to the statement
of the woman who keeps the house,
with her children She told him
that she would go home when she got ready,

ing that her husband had shot her and himself.
The generally accepted theory is that Mrs.
Chadeck turned on her husband with the re-
volver, perhaps only intending to frighten him;
that he seized her and forced her hands back,
and in the struggle the pistol was discharged,
wounding her in the shoulder: that he Mortified
at the accident, started back, when the probably
infuriated woman aimed the pistol at him, and
that he threw up his arm to protect himself. the
