DEAD IN EACH OTHERS ARMS
Secretly Married Couple Victims Of
Suicide Agreement Near
Milwaukee.

Milwaukee, Wis.-Frozen, covered
with snow, the girls head resting on
the mans breast, while his arm en-
circled her shoulders, the bodies Of
Alvina Leup and David Bersensky
were found, each with bullet hole
in the temple, in an automobile parked
under sheltering underbrush on little
used road ten miles north of the city
at ten o'clock this morning. Bersen-
sky had shot the girl as she lay in
his arms and then ended his own life.
Secretly married month ago, they
never had lived together. Bersensky
told the friend from whom he bor-
rowed the car: 'I don't know what
to do. Alvina must have home soon,
but / cannot support her the way the
girl deserves of me-"

to glance up at an eagle soaring into

Cleveland.-Twenty years ago Mary

factories here, and had been tOiling
there until a few days ago. She always
seemed TO he poor, and as old age crept
up she grew more needy. At last she
was committed to the Warrensville in

Mary wept when they took away her
old ragged dress and offered her a

The woodsmen who crowded about

the sky was paling with the light pre-

and set off at trot. They went on at

marshes, the most famous wild-fowling
region in the United States.
An ardent sportsman, Haertl was
glad of the opportunity to transform
his favorite pastime into the business
of living. Hunters who make flying
trips of one or two days duration to
the duck grounds do not experience
the utter sense of loneliness and iso-
lation which comes with day I'm and
day out existence in such a manner.
To communicate with the outer
world, young Haertl was obliged TO
paddle several miles to the nearest
farmhouse and telephone. Often, Of
course, he came in contact with hunt

most part the sensation is one of soli-

staring portrait Of the statesman,
was grandly called. They talked in
low tones, and David. on the edge of
the crowd, could not distinguish their
words. He knew, however, that most
of the leaders of the town were there:
Wash Johnson, the old postmaster,
with his deep voice booming out at
intervals; Henry Hurst and Henry
Van der Burgh, the judges; Benjamin
Parke, more recently appointed to the
bench; old John Small, who had been
sheriff twenty years before and
scalped with his own hand marauding
Indians whom his posse had pursued
and captured; Peter Jones, who had
seen the error of his ways as tav-
ern keeper and had reformed and be-
come the territorial auditor and the
custodian of the infant public library ;

when he overheard Governor Harrison
address a square-jawed young man in
the uniform of a captain in the Unit

had just written to Eustis, the sec

had commended to the department the
work of the young captain in trans

David Laurence, who had enlisted as
soon as he reached Vincennes, drilled

'To the north" gasped Ike. "There

Frenchman, Pierre Devan, followed
