FORGOT HIS WIFE.
4 Ligonier Girls Experiences the
Pacific Const.


Pacific Coast.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 16.-The Ex-
aminer prints a story of the wanderings
Of William W. Fairbanks, a Point Arena
photographer. who disappeared from this
city on the forenoon of Sunday, Oct. Is,
last a few hours after his marriage to
Miss Addie O'Connor. a young woman
who came here from Ligonier. Ind, to
marry him.
The ceremony was performed imme-
diately upon her arrival. A few hours
later Fairbanks kissed her good-by and
walked out of the hotel, saying he would
return soon. The young husband now
returns TO this city from Shreveport, La,
where he recovered his senses in a hos
pital. Papers in his possession also show
that he had been in Portland, Ore, and
Sacramento The strange part of the
story is that Fairbanks claims he can
remember nothing that occurred during
the past sixteen months.
He says that he knows nothing Of his
marriage and had to be introduced to
his bride, who had gone TO his parents
home at Point Arena. He remembered
her as a woman whom he only met
while travelling in the East, but says
he knows nothing of the correspondence
that resulted in her coming West to
marry him or of the marriage.
When he recovered his senses I'm
Shreveport he was suffering with fever
and nervous prostration.

GETS THE GRAND BOUNCE.
The Author of "Heavenward" Going
In TrOther Direction.

TERRE HAUTE, Nov. 17.-Special.-
The school trustees tonight unanimously
removed Prof. \. Marlowe, professor of
Latin at the high school.
He is the educated author Of a work
known as "Heavenward." who. about
week ago, sent his young wife of
fourteen months. who is soon to become
a mother and whom he has known since
childhood back 10 her home in Sulli-
van county to her parents, with the sim
pie statement that he found he no
longer loved her; that he had no COM
plant to make against her as a wife
at all, but discovered that he no longer
cared for her and didn't think it would
be proper for them to live together any
longer
This peculiar conduct on the part Of
Prof. Marlowe caused an immense sen
sation and led some of his friends to
think that the laborious work on his
book had temporarily unbalanced his
mind. but another conclusion was found
tonight when he appeared before the
board and argued that his course was
right as he had discovered his liking
for his wife had ceased. and he declared
that he would sue the board for his
salary if ne was removed.
He had no charges at all to make
against his young wife. He also ar
gued that if the board would stand by
him the upTOar caused by the affair
would soon die out
The action Of the trustees is COM
mended by the community, as the pub
lie demanded his removal as an edu-
Gator under the circumstances.
TERRE HAUTE. Nov. 9O.-Special.-
Prof w. A NARROW. the talented TWEEN
ty-five-year-old Latin teacher Of the
Terre Haute high school, who was dis

separation
His wife, he says, was not I'm sympathy
with his ambitions and aims i'm life and
continually objected 10 the advanced
work he was doing at home to prepare
himself for the masters degree at the
state university. She .even objected to
his reading the newspapers or to attend
ing the monthly meetings of teachers
as taking time that was hers. Their
tastes and sympathies were so radically
different that il resulted in unhappiness,
and i'm that condition he thought il best

says he appreciates.

Judgment on the verdict as returned by

tence, said:

any way interfere with It, and there

cut TO success for most of us-the chances
are one TO a thousand except by honest
means. and a success achieved dishon-
orably is not worth having. l count you
peculiarly fortunate in this case, be-
cause the crime which you sought TO
commit did not have entailed upon II
the terrible consequences which are
fairly involved. / want to say this to
you further, that / hope YOU realize
what il was that secured the leniency
upon the part Of the jury. The reason
for it no doubt was the better influences

influences you trampled upon when you
sought to commit this crime We're the
influences which saved you this time. -
The prisoner will be taken To Michigan
City tomorrow to begin his sentence.

RUN AWAY FROM HOME.
The WanderinEs of nm Orphan Girl
In Indiana.

ANDERSON, Nov. 20-Special.-'Tis
the ''old. old story" A young and inno-
cent girl fell in love with a dashing
doctor and now her folks are wondering
where she is.

lodge secured her a good home in
Marion, Ind, but she became dissatis-
fled and ran away. The lodge again
took her in hands and this time found
her a home in Muncie. She lived happily
there for a few months, but finally
skipped by the light of the moon and
came to Anderson. This seems to have
been about two years ago and she was
still what might be termed a little girl
She sought the MasonS and il was at
last learned that she was entitled to
good home, so after some time she
found shelter under the roof Of a Mrs
Whitaker, living at the corner of s.
Main and +. Fourteenth-sts. Here she
lived as one of the family for some time
and it was here she met the one she
loved But Mrs. Whitaker seemed to
change and commenced to heap hard
work upon the poor child and accused
her of almost everything that went
wrong. The neighbors all advised Miss
Ray TO leave, but she was mute.
One day not long ago Mrs. Whitaker
accused her of stealing and the conse-
quence was the young lady left very
suddenly and Mr.. and Mrs. Whitaker
are yet looking in vain for her where
abouts. Miss Ray was we'll liked and
her sudden departure has caused quite
stir among the citizens Of Anderson.

which ensued he shot at the latter Mrs
Gaddis. being enraged and under the
