court Of Fargo. y. D., the following
facts are CLEANED The petition sets

They were married September %, 1887,
al Bellaire. There is a minor son,
William Sharp Dougherty, as the only
living issue Of the union, and Mrs

the custody of the minor child. She
alleges that the defendant for more than
one year has wilfully neglected TO pro-
vide for plaintiff the common necessaries
Of life having the ability to do so, and
ne has compelled plaintiff 10 live on her
own resources and without aid or as
sistance from him, Notwithstanding he
is abundantly able to support her, and
is in constant receipt Of wages sufficient

For This Reason John Hartig ani Mary

LEAvENwOBTH, Kan, Sept John
Hartig and Mary Bush had been sweet
hearts since their childhood. Young
Hartig was the son of q wealthy
farmer of Wyandotts county and Mary
Bush was the daughter of a laborer, Of
good family, but to whom fortune had
been unkind. She was a beautiful girl
and pure. He was a young man of un-
usual morality and integrity. They
wished to wed, but the parents of each
sternly opposed the match. Try as the
young people would, it was absolutely
impossible to gain the consent OF the
parents Of either. The lovers became
despondent. Each separately but un-
successfully tried to commit suicide.
Then they met and deliberately planned
to end their lives together. They chose
the National hotel in this city. Here
they met last Friday night Hartig
put their joint plans into execution.
He used a revolver, shooting first his
sweetheart, who thus wished to die,
and then himself. He died instantly.
She now lies at the point Of death, ana
any moment may be the last
