or three days some premonitory sign:
OF an impending sensation but the in
definite nature of obtainable informa
ton has been such that the matter has
not until to-day been given publiaty
but what was apparently inevitable
In possession of story purpOrting tC
involve some one in this city i'll Chi
cagO case of domestic woe. The eX
posture Of letter in Chicago alleged
to have been written here seems
to have been an Incidental cause
which led to the publication of the
story which is given by the Chicago
Chronicle, as follows:
'Nlrs. Ella Nj Zingsem wants to know
who "baby' is. From all the docu
mentary evidence in the hands of the
police of this city Mrs. Zingsem has
been led to believe that "Baby' lives at
Plymouth, Ind, and thinks she is mar
ried to r. II. Zingsem. AS that gentle
man happens to be Mrs. Ella Zingsem S
husband, Mrs. Zingsem is rather per
tul bed over the incident and has told
Assistant Chief of Police Ross all about
it. The police of Plymouth, Ind, are
now trying to find out about Zingsen
and it looks as if there was trouble
ahead for Baby
Mrs. Ella Zingsem has had some little
trouble with her husband, Raphael r..
before this, so the shock is not so severe
as it might be. Her husband was one
OF the architectural superintendent
connected with the worlds fair and is
well known to exposition officials. On
file in the superior court is bill for di-
yOrce, in which Mrs. Zingsem alleges
that her husband has not been all that
a kind and dutiful husband should be.
She AYERS that he was fond of the rosy
flush which clings about the wine cup
or the beer glass and was guilty of ha-
bitual intoxicatiOn.
She AYERS further that when Raphael
was in this joyous condition his chief
delight was to come home and kick her
in the ribs. At times, she explains in
the bill, he altered this by punching her
In the jaw. Now and then he would
drive her out of the house at night, she
declares, leaving her to SILVER in the
midnight blast. For all of these little
peculiarities on the part of Raphael
Ella sought divorce and the possession
OF her property at 637 Washburne av-
enue.
SEPARATED SOME TINE AGO.
1t appears that the couple separated
some time ago and Zingsem went to
live at the Hotel Holland Fifty-third
street and Lake avenue. A few months
ago he became an inmate of DIR. Bor-
tons sanitarium, gold-cure establish
ment In Hyde Park, and early in Octo-
Der removed to another dipsomania
cure resort of Borton's at Plymouth.
Ind, where he remained until about the
middle of October.
A few days ago Mrs. Zingsem walked
into the office OF her attorney, G. Porter
johnson, who filed the divorce bill. Her
eyes were flashing bright flashes and
her cheeks were flushing.
There, what do you think of that ."
she demanded.
'That" was letter addressed to .'R.
Il. Zlngsem, Hotel Holland, corner
Flfty-third street and Lake avenue,
Chicago" and was postmarked "Plym-
outh, Ind, Oct. 15.''
1t reads as follows:
Plymouth. Ind, Monday of
DIR. L. A. BOrtOn-My Own Dear Hus-
band: L am thinking of you so in
tensely tO-night-am missing you so
much. The house has seemed so lonely,
and know you are thinking
OF me and wishing for me. Could
il be otherwise after the week 1--WE
have had? 1t is all just as l anticipa-
ted. l want you more than ever. You
are nearer and dearer to me and can't
live without you. To-day as | watched
you as far as could see you, it seemed
as though my very life was going with
you, and seemed rooted to the spot
and have felt all day the impressions
L knew L would. Your visit was so
happy for me, and | realize more than
ever the great happiness that is mine
in the possession of such love and ten
derness as you give me. Iwant it now
Papa asked me to-day if there was
any probability of your taking me
away soon, or before the holidays, and
told him when the way was cleared
there would in all probability be no de-
lay, but will tell you all this when l
am with you again. 1t has been but a
few hours comparatively since you left,
and yet it seems so long and now |
have to say good night without kiss
and without the happiness of looking
into your eyes and seeing your great
love for me. l love you SO and want to
