(From Saturdays Daily.)

A number of Prescott people ar, wondering who Gene Harris can be and what there is about the rcputedly beautiful Prescott girl that charmed Charles McKinstry of Los Angelo: out of the usual caution a man exer- cises about love letters s- especially when he happens to have wife Al any rate, Gene Harris is involved ir the case, which is being tried in a di. vorce court in Los Angeles.
 Nothing can be learned here of a Miss Gene Harris, however.
 Regarding the trial the Los An. gcles Herald has this to say:

 Extracts From Letter.
 "'You say it is pretty lonesome back there and everything about the same. Perhaps you do not think someone else is not lonesome to see the sweetest and dearest one that ever lived
 Another passage in the letter read as follows:
 Sweetheart II am awful, awful lonesome. l would like very much to sec someone right soon. don't know how you will like Tonopah, but I do know that somebody would like to see somebody in Tonopah. It is not always the location but how the loca- ton IS completed. We may have beautiful surroundings to ones hearts desire, where flowers and roses bloom with their fragrant perfume, but some thing is missing. Something is long ed for 10 complete the garden of roses. So you sec location is nothing until the right rose is placed in the garden. I believe every being should strive to seek for the object their dc sire and love calls for
 This is our full happiness, con tcntmcnt and pleasure We should love one another, especially the ono we arc longing for We should be good, kind and faithful to the one we love and make life happy, contented and encouraging. No other one will ever fill the place but the one we dearly love. You, dear. perhaps could guess that someone is living in hopes to see the day not far away when two souls will be happier than ever before. |
 Something Missing.
 Honey, l am getting along fine and dandy. But there seems to be I missing. Can you guess: Just now an going to make my comfortable and cozy. ItI is a little hard to tell you may be l able to suggest some little plan that would just suit.
 I will make some plan to sec you just as soon as possible: wherever may be you must come. l an not do- | ing all of this planning for myself It is for Us both. 4 little time and space; things make change. This change, I hope, will continue our life time in happiness, love and health
 "A postal card also addressed toI Miss Harris and signed, Be good, love, Charles was exhibited. It read: T have struck a bonanza in Stanis- | law county, California, on a very beautiful place where the flowers and roses grow.
 "'I have brilliant future approach | ing me; wish you were here. Will write you soon.'
 "Thc decree was granted.
