passengers on the train. In the trial court
the plaintiff got judgment, which was
affirmed by the appellate court. The SUI

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Mrs. Emma Smith, a
pretty blonde waitress at Olbrich's restaur-

killed Sunday afternoon by Charles Draoger,

life. The tragedy took place at LOG North
Ashland avenue. where Mrs smith lived
with her father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs.
A. ii. Wagner, IN rooms rented Of Draeger,
who retained one of them for his own use.
Jealousy was the cause of the crime Mrs.
Smith was living apart from her husband,
but had made up with him again Sunday
morning. D:aeger was infatuated with
her, but apparently without encour-
agement. When he heard that the
pair had decided t. reunite he became des-
perate, and after making himself half drunk
he returned to the house and renewed his suit
in grosser manner than ever before Mrs.
Smith was heard by her mother, who was in
an d'iJpiIitiS ItoHi 10 say GU must HpI
talk that way to me, am married woman
and have just seen my husband" In mo-
ment later three shots were heard and the
girl staggered into the other room and fell
into her mothers arms, exclaiming, ooh,
mother, Pm shotln and died A fourth shot
ended the murderer's life His body was re-
moved to the morgue and ". z. Smith noti-
fled of his wite's death. He seemed to de
Plore the disgrace more than bis wife's death.

death, but has resumed walking. Physi-
clans say 1t is only question Of endurance
Death alone, they say, can relieve him from
the iron grip of his mysterious malady
Meanwhile he is doing his five miles an hour,
not including rests He walks twenty hours
out of the twenty-four He SLAVES as he
walks and takes his meals while on the 60.
He has not been known to sleep more than
four hours out of the twenty-four in two
