Fred. W. Wichner living Just over the

Wichner was arrested a short time after

out when his wife appeared matters were
patched up and they concluded to try mar
ried life once more.
But 1t ranked within Wichner's breast
that he could not monopolize the affections
OF his wife, and learning that fellow
named Hughes was his rival he put on war
paint and hunted him up. He was found
in the woods with another fellow named
Dickson.
Wichner talked few monosyllables''
when Hughes interrupted him with 81 un-

stepped back and made movement toward
his hip pocket, when Hughes let fly his az

chest, who turned and without stopping to
ask why Hughes was SO bloodthisty, legged
ID for morn two miles. Such was the case in
toto. And thus it ended as far as the par

with Dame gossip. By the time a report of
the affair reached Defiance they had Wich-
