Man and Wife Lose Each Other
An interesting case of getting lost turned
up here today. Charles Hecker was mar
ried to Lydia Johnson in Waterloo three
months ago. A few weeks ago they came
to the city in search of employment. She
went to work as a domestic servant and he
went out on a farm. They had arranged
to both go to the farm. He came to town
| o,,ao,. a. - - o,d fo.,d che haa urnpa
away. He has traced her about the city
and found where she has sought work, and
the persons to whom she applied claim that
the young wife was also in distress be-
cause of her inability to find her husband.
Both are very young. He was a soldier in
the Philippine war. 1t appears, therefore,
that both are searching and that they have
become as completely lost to each other as
II they were in a wilderness.

The caucuses nave been held for the Poll
county democratic convention, which will
be held here Saturday. 1t is found thai
