JEALOUSY LEADS TO CRIME:
A sutton Attempts to XIII
the Girl He Says He
Loves.

Chicago, Dec. Height years or pa
tent wooing reached a climax yester-
day, when A. NJ. Pell, an artist, con-
fessed, in n letter to h police, that
on the night before he had tried TO
kill the object of his vain alteration
He made the effort to murder, he
wrote. to prevent her from giving her
love to another man.
Miss Annie Stowesand, 1o41 Whipple
street, is the girl whom Artist Peu
courted in vain. When he first saw her
she was shopping in a State street
store, and was then only 10 years OF
age. Pell was struck by the girls
beauty, and he resolved to become ac-
| quainted with her. The mans atten-
lions were not d~isagreeable to the
girl, and soon the two became friends
For years thereafter Pell met the
girl each evening as she left her work
and walked home with her. During
this time he often told her of his love,
end he proposed marriage, but h re-
fused him. PelI was nearly fifty years
! old. and the girl frankly told him that
she would not marry a man OF his
age.
Last winter the lover was appointed
as an artist on the decorating staff
for the Paris exposition, and left for
Paris in the spring. He remained away
until seven weeks ago. On his return
Peu began a search for Miss Stowe
! sand. and as soon as he met her he
again proposed marriage. Again he
was refused. So persistent had his at
tentions become that the girl now re-
fused to again see him.
Friday night Pell called at her
house, and when she came to the door
he dragged her out on the porch and
struck her on the temple with a re
volver butt. She fell ~senseless, and
PelI disappeared.
Yesterday morning a letter, pre-
sumably written by PeIl, was receivet
by the police of the West Lake street
station. In the letter the man re
hearsed his love for the girl, told o.
his disappointment because she woulS
not marry him.

Milwaukee. Dec. I7.-A sentinel spe-
eiaI from Manitowoc. Wis, yesterday,
said:
The steamer Manhattan arrived
here to-day, with ". III. Shields and
William McCauley, lighthouse keepers
on Souaw island, and the bodies of
Mrs. Shields and her niece, Mrs. Mary
Davis.
They were picked up Saturday at
ternoon in the lake. where they were
found dashed to an overturned yawi-
They had been thus exposed since FRI
day, when they We're capsized by a
squall while sailing from h island
to the mainland. Lucien Morden, or
Montague. Mich, was also an occupant
of the boat when it capsized, n was
drowned before he could be dashed to
the overturned craft
The two rescued were badly frozen,
and it is thought they may have to
suffer amputation of their lower limbs.
They were taken to the Holy Family
hospital here, where the following
story of their terrible experience was
told by MI. Shields:
sUpou receiving orders to close the
lighthouse. FOR the season, We pre-
pared to leave the island together
with our helper, Lucien Morden, OF
Montague, Mich, Mrs. Shields and
| Mrs. Mary Davis, my wife's niece. We
left the island on Friday for the main
land, seven miles distant, bound o

sail of our boat, capsizing 1T, and
throwing us all into the lake. We all
succeeded, after much ard work, in
reaching the boat. McCauley and my
self. after much labor, finally sue
ceeded in flashing both the women to
the boat and then ourselves. Morden,
the helper, had, in the meantime, be-
| come delirious, and refused to ne
| dashed or attempt to save himself,and
soon after fell off the boat and was
lost. My wife and her niece, McCauley
and myself, dashed and clinging to h
boat, were tossed about and suffered
terribly from the cold and seas, which
washed over us.
"About seven hours after the acct
! dent happened, my wife
| being unable to longer endure the ter
rible conditions which h exposure
to winds and seas caused. Mrs. Davis,
after holding up for several hours at
ter nv wife's death, also succumbed,
and only McCauley and myself re-
manned alive, with the two dead wom-
en- dashed oy our sides, floating around
the lake with no human being in
