brother of Cornelius Mcnamara, the
Montana millionaire. 1t appears that
some time ago McNamara's wife Sc

soon as McAllister became free he de-

premises at the muzzle of shotgun.
Joe Berry, rival for the girls affec
tions, was also on hand with firearms
and gave moral aid to the Nebraska
attorney.
After failing to gain clandestine
interview with his sweetheart, McNa-
mara decided to appeal to the courts.
He applied for writ of habeas corpus,
which was issued. Before it could be

Miss McAllister's birth. AS the records
of her birthplace are incomplete, the

When John Biltl1is stabbed Peter
Govanis in the heart at Philadelphia
he made good his threat of the previ-
Gus night. The story of the killing
makes a tragedy rich in tableaux.
Govanis had spent every Sunday since
his return from the Turkish war at
the Greco-American club. Bilikis has
lived there for some time past. Gov
anis was sitting in the club room Sun
day afternoon when Bilikis entered
and approached him with an open
knife. Govanis drew heavy revolver
and snapped the trigger. 1t missed
fire. Grasping the barrel Govanis
made a rush at his enraged assailant
and struck him an awful blow Just
above the forehead. 1t did not phase
Bilikis, who grasped Govanis by the
throat with his left hand and buried
the knife deep in his heart with
long, sweeping blow. Bilikis pulled
the knife out and threw his victim
into the street. After striking the
pavement he arose. pressed his hands
tightly over the awful wound, and ran
several squares to a drug store. Doc

Dakota City, began a second habeas

Graves at Pender. Sheriff Sides COM
piled without resistance and gave the

Miss McAllister in custody if she is
over eighteen. The girl says she is OF
age, and her father says that she is
not. She has instructed her attorney
to prepare papers in $4,000 damage
