Mrs. Lyle Becomes Violent.


Mrs. Imogene Lyle, wife of J. vi.
mont Lyle, OF New York, well known
here, was arrested Monday, at Dan
vile, by Chief-of-Police Wood and
Sheriff Mcdowell and locked up on the
charge of lunacy.
Mrs. Lyle was declfrsd by h I
father, Mr.. w. B. Holmes, some time
ago, to be of unsound mind and fig-
ured in a sensational incident in Lex
lngton resulting from her fathers at
tempt to have her sent to an ASYLUM.
The case was later dropped and Mrs.
Lyle went to Paris, France, returning
to Danville about a month ago. Since
her return she has beel acting queer
ly and has been frightening the clerks
IN the various drygCols stores where
she did her shopping by making all
sorts OF threats against them.
Monday morning she entered the
Boyle National Bank. Becoming an
gered at some fancied offense, she
threatened to shoot Cashier Wallace.
and made such disturbance that the
officers of the bank called in Chief-of-
Police Wood and Sheriff mcdowell.
As soon as they aLpeared n d, me
Mrs. Lyle turned her anger against
them and repeatedly threatened to
Kill them. 1t was only after a hard
struggle, in which outside assistance
was secured, that she was over
powered.
The affair created great sensation
in Danville. Her trial was still in
progress yesterday morning behind
closed doors.

Quand, du bout de doigt, il cut brod6 les leurs
Et du bout de pied, donne le branie mondes,
Deu fit rhonime.ot voulant lu montrer punivers,
II prit sa main d6bile dams main grandiose,
Puts Iamena pres des laos bleus pres des bois verts
CONNIE un grand aieul doux menant un enfant rose.
Or phomme Wit soudain cent Aeurs aux tons joyeux,
D6roulant dams razur cent fra1ches banderoles,
OH 81 bellies, vraiment si belles pour yeux,
Quill cut voulu MOURN en- baisant leurs corolles
"Oh! CONNIE cest joli! dit-il, joignant les mains,
Et tomba1t agenoux CONNIE enfant qul n ose
L'homme. pour sembaumer tout le long des chemins,
Sc pencha sur les 1eurs ct cueill1t
Alors Dieu le mena vers les grands monts, ct pus
II lul montra la neige leur epaue atere
ST blanche que ses yeux SO fermalent, ebouls,
CONNIE deux buets las ct pam6s de lumlere
"Comme c'est joli! dit lhomme radieux,
Et, vogant s'6crouler une brusque avalanche,
Pour s6gayer en- route ct Sc charmer les yeux,
II prit sur la montague peu de neige blanche,
Alors Dieu lemporta dams le cel chatoyant
1T lui montra des vols d6toes 6ternees:
Si douces qu'on voudrait pleurer en- les voyant,
Pleurer ct tout coup prendre lessor vers ellie!
"Oh! CONNIE c'est joli!' ditil, les bras tendus,
Et, pour Hummer nuits sombres voiles.
Comme attrape vol deux papillons perdus,
IL fit un bond ct prit dams lombre deux 6toiles
Or comme il 6tait las d'avoir tant chemine,
Lhomme qui retourna1t la terre morose,
S'endormit dams phi de lazur satin6,
Ayant ses c0tes 6tolles, neige ct rose.
Et le bon Dieu, voulant que lhomme, son r6veil,
Wit en- un senl objet chooses mirifques:
Neige pures blancheurs, rose p6clat vermeil,
Etoi!es aux rayons doux ct beatifques.
Voulant quill fdt heureux, voulant quill fut joyeux,
Voulant quill ne1t plus rien d6srer monde
Quill regrettat plus les anges, nj les ceux,
Mais quill v6cut vibrant dams rextase profonde,
Deu prlt astres aeur nege ses .doigts glorieux,
Et reuant suHSahef- ID d'oeuvre avec Get amalgame
Fit de la neige un corps, des 6toiles deux yeux,
De la une bouohe ct du tout une femme.
