Tillie Anderson is a pretty young
maid of just eighteen summers, whose
home is at 22S9 Twenty-fourth avenue
south, the residence of her stepfather,
L. c. Sweningsen. Title had a sweet
heart named ThorwaId S. LOveld, a
young painter IN the employ of Brad
street, Thurber IL Co., but his ardOr was
of such tigerish nature that she finally
gave him his congo. Her parents adj

ThOrwald. lie refused to give her up,
however, and, like the lover in the play,
chopped against hope' and resolved to
win her in spite of everything" But
Tillie wouldn't be won, neither would
her Stepfather who took it upon him.
self to order the infatuated fellow to re-
main away from the house or take the
consequences, which he promised would
be serious and unpleasant.
Several days ago the parents of the
young miss called upon the police and
Informed them that they were afraid
that LOyeld would do his old sweetheart
some bodily injury. He had written
threatening letters to her and cOntin-
ually referred to some dark deed and
dark shadow" The dark shadow"
was beyond comprehension, but it was
inferred that Loveld had reference to
himself. The case was placed in the
hands of Inspector StaYalO and yester-
day he brought matters to focus, by
calling the young man at his own
game. Last Wednesday Miss Anderson
received the following letter from her
old lover, which hints at things dark and
asks her to leave home:
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, April 11.-Tillie

Below are printed two letters, also
written by loved to Miss Anderson,
which are mysterious, and had the
effect of making the young lady feel de-
cidedly depressed and nervous:

Won must be alone. No traps must be set to
check me, yet ! will not harm you if you are
home. THoRwALD.
The unhappy Thorwald sent word to
Miss Anderson that he would make his
appearance at the house yesterday aft
ernoOon at 10 o'clock, and advised her
to be prepared to receive him. She
was prepared. She received him in the
parlor, and in the adjoining room was
Inspector Stavalo. The latter was
ready for any emergency, for he did not
know but Thorwald might attempt to
put his Dark Shadow to work out
some detriment to Miss Anderson.
ThOrWald first asked for his let
tiers, the ones whose contents
are printed above, and upon being told
that they had been given to the police
he became very angry. The inspector
interfered at this point, and informed
the swain that he must get out of the
house at once and never show up in the
vicinity again. But he was 10th to obey,
and said that it was on Miss AnderSon'S
invitation that he was present, and it
was undoubtedly her pleasure he should
remain. StavalO left it to Miss Ander-
son. The pretty young girl said, trag-
ically:
IF he doesn't get out, throw him
out"
So Thorwald got, and as he swung
back the gate he turned and cast long
ing look toward the house, signing for
the fair occupant and his own unhappy
condition. Miss Anderson stated yes
terday that Loveld had made life bur-
den to her for long time, with his at
tentions and persistent manner of WOO
ing. One of the first things that turned
her against him was an event that Oc-
Cured during the early part of their en-
gagement. One day he threw her upon
the floor to show her, as he said, that he
intended to act the lord and master
after marriage. He believed in begin
ming before the ceremony had been per-
formed in order that she might become
thoroughly accustomed to the idea.
