Ike, who is believed to be on the verge
of a collapse, caused people in the vi

something terrible was happening
there last evening.
Hearing that the body of Frank K.

the girl plead for an opportunity to
take a.look at her dead lover. She was
taken to the undertaker's room where
she threw herself upon the mans
form and cried while her whole body
shook with emotion. Finally she had
to be removed' by force. On the re-
to the Jail she did not create any
scene, but the moment she was again
within the walls she began Shrek
ing: 20, Frank, why did you kill
yourself?' 20, Frank, I want to go

The girl declared repeatedly that she
could not believe her lover to be dead
and there was no mistaking the deep
grief she is experiencing.

Nevada. Oct. 20.-A sensation was
sprung In Nevada this morning when
papers were filed in the clerks office,
in which Mrs. Annie Gilmore, wife of
William j. Gilmore, one of The county's
most prominent citizers. asks for a di-
vorce and alimony. 1T had been known
for some time that there was an oc-
casional difference between Mr.. and
Mrs. Gilmore, but it was o thought
that 1t would end in a divorce petit
ton.
Mrs. Gilmore Is the defendants sec
ond wife, he having a large family of
grown children by his former wife,
and at the time Of the marriage there
were some objections raised by MEM
bers of the family. A few years g
Mr.. and Mrs. Gilmore moved to this
city and he purchased a feed store.
About a year ago Mrs. Gilmore re-
turned to the farm and made her home
with one of the sons. Later Mr.. Gill
more sold out his business and ret,rn-
ed to the farm. For the past several
weeks Mrs. Gilmore has beer again
staying in Nevada.

greeable temper, which at times be-
comes violent. and that his, treatment
Of her is exceedingly unkind. Both
are very active in church affairs, being
members of Central Presbyterian

tate is quite a large one, and there will
probably be considerable litigation over
