KILLING TRIP BY SUNNY Jim
Taft's Running Mate Kills Chickens,
Knocks Down Horses and Does
Other Stunts.

With the close of a 40-mile au-
tomobile ride from Hornell to Cuba,
N. Y, during which the car killed
several chickens, knocked down a
horse and blew out tire, James E.
Sherman, republican Vice-presidential
candidate, stepped upon the hotel
veranda and remarked: well, that
was going some"
Although today was supposed to
be a quiet one for the candidate to
afford his throat a much-needed rest
before the party reached Cuba, N. Y,
for the last meeting there were a
number Of thrills not down on the
programme.
The first speech of the day was
made at Hornell where the candi-
date addressed large MONDAY audi
ence of workingmen anu their wives.
Following the Hornell meeting, au-
tomobiles conveyed Mr.. Sherman and
his party to Cuba.
Before the party reached Wells
Vile a rear tire on one of the cars
blew out, delaying the party about
fifteen minutes. To catch up with
the schedule very fast time was made,
and the flying automobiles sped
through f1ocks of fowls, killing sew
eral. Later a horse was knocked
down by the second car, one of the
occupants Of which was thrown to
the ground, but not injured.

saying a family of the name of Asch-
er had fallen heir to a large fortune,
and that the names of members of
the family were wanted by London
law firm. Mrs. Ascher had little idea
that her husband was among those
to become beneficiaries.
She wrote back, however, to a
cousin in Berlin asking him to look
into the report. She received a let
ter in which it was stated that her
husband was certain to share to the
extent of at least a million in the
Joseph Ascher estate.
Falling heir to a million, however.
did not seem to produce the thrill in
Mrs. Ascher or her family that might
be expected in these commercial
times. She found cause for displeas-
ure instead of joy and feared that
so much money in her family might
disrupt the prevailing general happi-
ness around her little freside.

BROOKLYN WIFE'S DECEPTION
Lived With Two Husbands Daily.
One Worked in Daytime, and
the Other at Night.

A New York dispatch to The Phil
adelphia Inquirer says: Instances of
man maintaining two wives in diff
ferent parts of the city are not rare,
but it is not often that a woman
slides into the limelight as the pos
SCISSOR of two husbands with whom
she lived every day in the year. Mrs.
Catherine Stroebel was such a YER
satile helpmeet, according to undis-
puted evidence furnished before JUS
tice Aspinnall in the Brooklyn su-
preme court, where Philip Stroebel
was awarded a decree of divorce from
her
Catherine lived with Stroebel as
his wife at 247 Stanhope street, and
with one Jacob Valusse as his wife
at Atlantic and Grant avenues, Rich
mOnd Hill. She was aided in her
dual household accomplishments by
the fact that Stroebel, whom she
married in 1899, is an engineer and
works nights. Valusse is a clerk
anu WI MS III the udy llulC.
Stroebel's employment forced him
to leave his home at o'clock in the
evening. AS soon as he was out of
sight Mrs. Stroebel would put on her
wraps, close up the house and hasten
to Richmond Hill, where she would
assume her position of Mrs. Valusse.
The clerking Valusse wound up his
labor at o'clock in the evening.
BY the time he got out to Richmond
Hill his apparent wife would have
dinner on the table for him. She
would spend the night at Valusse's
home and get up at $50 in the morn
ing and prepare his breakfast.
VaIusse left the house about $50.
Mrs. Valusse would then close up the
domicile and hasten down to her
home in Stanhope street to begin the
day as Mrs. Stroebel Stroebel would
get home about 1880. If Mrs. Stree
bel needed any sleep she could take
it while her husband slept through
the day.

Alone, and Screamed When an En-
trance to Room Was Forced.
After a dramatic scene on the
Union Pacific train in Omaha, Neb..
at midnight, in which the door of
his stateroom was burst open by a
deputy sheriff, William Randolph
Hearst, the millionaire editor, was
served with papers notifying him that
a suit for 100000 had been brought
against him for Islander and libel by
Governor Charles ~ Haskell of Okla
homa, in Douglas county, Nebraska,
district court.
The suit was filed in the district
court, after which the papers were
Immediately drawn. The train did
not arrive until 11:25. The deputy
sheriff was on hand with orders to
serve the summons on Hearst.
A knock on the door of Hearsts
state room elected Information from
the editors wife that he was not in
the room, but had gone to the sta
ton to send a telegram. The deputy
Isheriff demanded admittance in the
name of the law, saying if not admit
ted he would break down the door
Then ensued a dramatic scene. Mrs.
Hearst, on the inside, screamed out
she was alone and would admit no
man, and the deputy sheriff proceed
ed to carry out his threat. Using his
shoulders as a battering ram he
crashed through the door and was
met by Mrs. Hearst, partially dis
rObed and apparently on the verge
of hysteria Nothing daunted, al
though Mrs. Hearst rushed scream
ing through the door out in the aisle,
the deputy sheriff started to kick in
the door of the toilet room adjoining
the state room Then Hearst
emerged and accepted the papers.
To reporter Hearst said the sum-
mons was unexpected, and he had not
the least suspicion that anything of
the kind was to occur in Omaha.
why did you refuse admittance to
the OffiCers?" he was asked.
Because myself and wife were re-
firing for the night" explained
Hearst Il have no objection to be-
ing served with these papers here in
Omaha or anywhere else"
Governor Haskell bases his claim
for damages on the report published
by the Chicago Examiner, a Hearst
newspaper, of the speech made by
Hearst at Memphis September, 10Th.
The governors complaint recites that
in that speech Hearst libeled and de-
famed the governor by asserting 1.-The
democratic party allowed it's platform
to suit the Standard Oil, and Haskell,
who was an agent of the Standard
Oil, was chairman of their committee
on platform"
