| Miss Grace Lusk, who shot and
killed Mrs. David Roberts, at Wau-
kesha. Wis, last week, and then tried
to kill herself by firing two bullets
into her cwn breast, is improving and
will probably live. At the inquest
she was held for trial by the Jury
DR.. Roberts will probably have "a
hard time explaining his relations
with the school teacher. He had
promised to make statement to his
wife to the effect that he did not love
her and that he loved Miss Lusk
Instead, the testimony is that he told
his wife that Miss Lusk was a fool
and was chasing him." 1t is but an
other case of a man Turing a young
girl to her ruin and men of DR.
Roberts stripe should be given the
full penalty of the law.
