electrician of the Pass City, and a member of the Fl Paso Woman's Club, skipping by the light of the moon with the handsome leading man Of the Washington Park Stock Company, MT Raymond Whitaker.
 Last Friday night Raymond Whita- ker. the handsome leading man at Washington park left the city. He showed a telegram calling him 10 Cali fcrnia to attend the bedside of his father. who was said to be fatally iii. The same night Mrs. Jennie Car roll, wife Of w. B. Carroll, left and the next day rumors were rife to the effect that she had eloped with Whita- ke~ and that the latter had not been called home 70 see his father but that the telegram which he showed Man. ager Leake of the Washington Park Stock company was bogus. The rumors also reached Mir. Carroll's ears and he could not give them credence. His wife had made her arrangements to go east Saturday night to visit her parents and her leaving a night earlier than she had planned, although 1t looked suspicious, did not convince him. Sat u-day afternoon he received a te!e- gran from his wife dated Albuquerque in which she said she had arrived there safely. ard would write when she reached her destination. Ihls disarmed M-. Carroll.
 Friday night after the Santa Fe train had left, Manager Leake sent telegram to Whitaker which was de- livered 10 him at San Marcial. He had heard the rumors that Whitaker had not gone to see his father, but had eloped with Mrs. Carroll. and asked him if this was so. Whitaker wired hack: You are crazy: will write Monday"
 Monday came ard Manager Leake did not receive a letter.
 Wife AIIays Suspicious.
 On Monday Mir. Carroll, who in the meantime had heard all sorts ot sto- ries concerning his wife and Wnlta- ker. received a letter from her wr,t- fen on letter paper of the Alvaraao hotel in Albuquerque, which said: Forgive me for leaving you So nli- rie1ly. l could not bear to tell you Lcod bye" She also assured her husband that she would write every day after she had reached the home of her parents.
 Thus MT. Carroll was kept guess ing between the stories that he was hearing from all sides concerning his wife's intimacy with Whitaker and her telegram and letter which seemed in contradict the story that she hao eloped. However. the evidence ac- cumulated so rapidly and convincing. Iv that he decided that his wife had n,ayed him false. and he decided to hiring suit for divorce. which was filed yesterday afternoon through Z' l.. Cobb.
 Convincing Letters.
 The riece of evidence that con vinced Carroll of his wife's perhdy was A letter which was found among scme of Whitaker's belongings that he had hastily left behind at Wash ineton Park. The letter was on note paner bearing the monogram M. V. c" It is as follows:

We are all coming to see you rehearse in the morning. We shall be there by lo o'clock. so I guess you must rehearse whether the company needs 1t or not. 'I just don't know what shall do, but I am positive may get through without d scratch on the honor Of the household.
