startling discovery was made here to- day
OF the bodies OF Miss Alma Nunnemac cher,

inent merchant Of Milwaukee, and William

Nunnomacher was spending the winter here
with her parents and last week Miller, to
whom she was engaged. arrived. Her
parents opposed the match and on Friday
after luncheon. she left the house and as
night came on and she did not return, and
Miller also had disappeared. il was sup
posed they had gone off TO ba married. This
afternoon boy found the bodies in pine
thioket about 200 yards from the depot.
From tho position in which they were
lying tho supposition is that the young
man must have first shot his companion
through tho left temple and then shot him
self bohind the right Rr. and death in both
instances must have been instantaneous.
The affair was evidently premeditated, as
Miller had borrowed pistol that morning.
