HANGED HIMSELF
Leroy Hazen, Of Swanton Center
Evidently Demented.

Swanton, May 14.-Leroy Hazen of
Swanton Center, committed suicide
by hanging early this morning. He
had been acting somewhat strangely
all winter and his mental trouble of
late had become marked. This morn
ing he went out to his work, as usual
and not returning at the accustomed
time, Mrs. HaZen went to look for him
and found that he had hanged himself
with a rope in the barn. When found
the body was cold
A peculiar circumstance, showing
the condition of Mr.. Hazen's mind,
was the fact that he killed his COW,
and the body of the animal was found
dead in the barn with him.
DR.. G. h. Allen of this village and
the town authorities were notified and
examined the body.
Mr.. Hazen was about 35 years old
and is survived by a wife and foul
small children.
The family came from North Hero
last fall and were living on what II
known as the old Burnell farm.

THE MCKEE DIVORCE
Woman Gets Decree-Both Parties
Scored by Judge

Paris, May 15.--The court has grant
ed the Mckee divorce, finding that
Mr.. and Mrs. Mckee had each con-
tributed to the unhappiness of their
household. Mrs. Mckee is given the
custody Of their child with the pro-
vision that Mr. Mckee be allowed to
have the child one month yearly as
well as being permitted TO see the
child twice week If living in the
same city or town. The court also
found that Mr.. McKee's charges that
Colonel Baxter and Mrs. Mckee, his
daughter, had inspired libellous ar
ticles against him in the American
newspapers were not proved and dis
missed the case. Mr. Mckee was Or
dered to contribute 1000 francs month
ly for the support of his child.
The divorce suit was brought I'M
this city by Mrs. A. Hart Mckee, for
merly Mrs. Hugh Tevis. The court
was of the opinion that reconcilia-
ton between the McKees was impos-
sible so separation was the wisest
thing. It found the husband guilty
OF violence and OF having committed
biuNV WIoHbo toWdIu HIS VIE, Say X
he had yielded on the slightest prov.
ocation to the impulses of his vicious
nature. He had aggravated these
wrongs by bringing charges against
his wife which he could not prove as
well as by having read in court his
wife's love letters. which elementary
decency' should have prevented him
from making public.
The court found that the wife on
her side unwarrantedly attacked her
husband by making charges in con.
nection with the disappearance of her
jewels and other property, charges
which were entirely disproved The
tribunal referred TO the notariaI
court all financial questions pending
between Mr. and Mrs. Mckee. The
court divided the costs between the
plaintiff and the defendant. The for
NAL decision reads as follows: "The
court grants the divorce at the re
quest of and in the interest of botf
parties"

The seven to eight mile journey
was made in seven minutes and forty
seconds. Orville Wright was the nav
igator and steered a northerly direc

machine gliding high over the small
sand hills. Then 1t circled around
another HILL 100 feet high and made

over the second lap the machine wa.
seen TO wabble, and was safely land
