A LOVE TRAGEDY.
An Illinois Swain Kills His Iowa
Sweetheart and Himself.

MILWAUKEE, Feb. IA special to the
Evening Wisconsin, from Berlin. Wis.
says: Last evening j. w. Hooker Of
Danville. ILL.,, shot and killed Mabel
Steikc. Of Belle PLANE, Iowa, and then
blew out his own brains. Hooker was
nineteen and his victim one year younger.
The tragedy was the result of love
affair. 1t seems that young Hooker and
Miss Sickle met some time ago and fell
in love with each other. The marriage
was opposed by the girls parents and to
separate the young people she was sent
to Berlin 10 visit ut the home of her
grandfather. In some manner Hooker
learned Of the girls whereabouts and
went to Berlin and took rooms in the
hotel there. While there he was taken
down with the measles. when Miss Steike
prevailed on her grandparcnt to take the
young man under his roof. About $50
last night the young man called the girl
from the firesde to the door of his room.
when the tragedy occurred The family
rushed to the scene upon hearing pistol
shots and found young Hooker dead and
the unfortunate girl in dying condition.
She survived only few minutes after the
shooting. 1t is thought Hooker asked
Miss Steike to marry him, and on being
refused took her life and his own in a
frenzy of distraction
