Meets Former Sweetheart in Chicago
and Becomes His Bride.
Chicago. Aug. 31.-Miss Margie Wal
lace, of Dewitt, Iowa, who has been
visiting in Chicago, was won by the
ardent wooing of w. Lee Dinger "A for
mer sweetheart, and they were married
Wednesday, despite the fact that Miss
Wallace had been betrothed to Frank
Fairburn, mayor of Fonda. Mrs. DIM
ger has been engaged to Mr.. Fairburn
for some time. In her circle of friends
it was an accepted fact that the we'd
ding would take place this fall. 1t was
almost with a view of arranging for
her trousseau that Miss Wallace came
to Chicago to visit Miss Florence Wall
lar, 1860 Southport avenue.
Last summer, in company with. Miss
Wallar, Miss Wallace spent several
weeks at Mackinac, and it was there
she met Mr.. Dinger In fact, it was he
and friend, Hugh F. Martin, who
rescued the two girls from drowning
after their boat had been overturned
The natural sequence was at least
one proposal of marriage, but with the
remark, Now yGSve spoiled 1t all,'
Miss Wallace procN led to pack her
trunk and go back TO Dewitt. Mr..
Dinger, however, was not wholly con-
vinced, and wrote, he admitsy sls often
as twice a week, but it was not until
week ago that they met again. Tho
proposal was renewed, but for several
days the young woman was obdurate.
She would not break her engagement.
Mr.. Dinger is a commercial traveller for
Sprague, Warner & Co., and says he
called into play all his persuasive elo-
quence.
TT was the biggest bill of goods I
had to SELL" he laughingly explained,
and for a while thought was not
going to get my order. She favored
another house, but finally decided to
become a customer of mine"
Miss Wallace capitulated yesterday
morning and the marriage took place
at o'clock in the afternoon at the
Walker residence, after the engage
nent with the Fonda executive had
been broken by wire.

Discovery of Embezzlement of
Trust Company's Funds
Causes Sensation
cHuRcHMEN ARE SURPRISED
Nipples Pious Actions and Apparent
Religious Nature Led Them to En-
trust Their Savings With Him-Em-
pIoyes Suspected crookedness-Di-
reetors Severely Criticized.

Philadelphia. Aug. 31.-A statement
of Receiver Earle, of the broken Real
Estate Trust Company, that Frank e.
Hipple, late president Of the concern,
had stolen securieties valued at $65,000,
and that lending $5,000,00O to Adolph
Segal on insufficient security amounted
to as much as theft, created profound
sensation thruout the city today. The
revelation was an especially cruel blow
to his many immediate friends, most
of whom were prominent in the Pres
byterian church, either as clergymen or
laymen, so high was their estimation
of the man who abhorred tobacco and
liquor and refrained from reading
Sunday newspapers, that not only the
various organizations in the PresbyS
terian church made the trust company
their depository, but hundreds Of mem-
bers of that denomination placed
their money in his company. The
number of pastors who used the bank
to care for their savings was excep.
tionally large. Most of them refused
ito entertain the theory that Nipple
ended hi38ow life, and 1t was difficult
to make them believe his secret oper-
ations were as irregular as they are
alleged to be. In addition to his church
work, Nipple took an active interest in
reform politics. He is said to have
been a heavy contributor to the re-
formers campaign fund in last year. 8
notable contest in this city. Criticism
heretofore expressed by the depositors
Of the failure of the directors of the
company to discover Nipples transac-
tions has increased, and many larger
creditors are angered at what they
term the negligence of these men. It
is alleged several directors had knowl-
edge that some of Nipples transactions
were unsafe, but they had such conf
dence in his integrity they did not sus-
pect the true state of affairs or enter
tain the belief that his operations were
irregular. It. became known today the
employees of the company were aware
there was something wrong with the
accounts Several Of them went 50 far
as to leave checks with their fellow
employees when they went on vaca-
ton, for immediate withdrawal Of their
deposits. if their suspicious were con-
fir.ned.

BODY NOT YET FOUND.
Sheriff Believes Stolen Rem aims TO Be
Hidden in keokuk.

Keokub Aug. 31.-If Sheriff Kessel-
ring we're given the privilege of
searching every attic and closet in the
city he feels sure that he would locate
the body of Mrs Jeremiah Forsythe,
which was stolen from grave in
Hickory Grove cemetery sometime
during the hours of last Sunday morn
ing.
This theory of the disposition Of
the. body has been advanced after
long deliberaaon and careful investi
cation on the part of those who have
interested themselves in the search.
The officials have made inquiries at
the depots in an endeavor to learn
whether the corpse has been shipped
out Of town, they have searched the
medical colleges from cellar to dome,
and have made inquiries concerning
every college student who is in the
city, with the result that they are
clearly convinced that the body is
secreted somewhere within the con-
fines of the city.

SOLDIERS PROTEST BAD MEAT.

Regulars at Camp Benjamin Harrison
Refuse to Accept Tainted Beef.
indianapolis, Aug. 31.-The regulars
in camp at Fort Benjamin Harrison
made it plain yesterday that they
would not accept as rations tainted
meat, and for an hour or more there
were indications of rebellion against
the ration.
The beef had been taken to the camp
in a refrigerator car and had changed
color after being exposed to the air for
several hours.
The protests of the soldiers caused a
board of inspection to be appointed,
which reported that the beef was faint
ed in spots, but recommended that the
untaiated parts be used. General Car
ter, however, ordered all the beef de-
stroyed and new ration issued.
