Love FOR MOTHER
Sabetha Young Man Takes Own
Life To Join Her.
A. w. Lehnherr Found Dead in
Lonely Spot Near Here.

Wealth and position spelled nothing
to Alfred w. Lehnherr, 81. wealthy
sabetha young man, who shot and
killed himself Friday at noon at a
lonely spot on the Lake street road.
near Fifteenth street. His invalid
mother, whom he had cared for for
years was dead upon his return from
France. The youth grieVed for two
months and then put a bullet thru his
head in order to search for his mother
in another world.
Grief over the death of his mother
is given as cause for Lehnherr's deed
by his uncle, Henry Feldman of Sa-
betha, and E. Atkinson, a Sabetha
minister, in Topeka today arranging
for shipment of the body to Sabetha.
Lehnherr's father died nine years ago,
leaving much money and property.
His mother was an invalid and the
lads every moment was spent in look
ing after the comfort and happiness
of his mother.
The draft called him to the colors
and he went to France. While away
his mother died. Upon his return,
June 2, he found the big house with
out a soul in it. He spent days by his
mothers grave. Then he endeavored
to regain the happiness he had lost
thru love with the fortune he had lett
to him.
He AOulunU fOFSOt.
Young Lehnherr purchased an auto
mobile. He drove it over the coun-
tryside, most generally taking the min
lister with him. Always on his return
home the big empty house would bring
back memories of the little, gray
haired woman he had left when he
started for war. His brooding con-
tinued. The uncle endsavored to per-
suade him to go to Colorado with
him. The lad refused.
About a week ago he left Sabetha.
That was the last seen of him so far
as is known until 1850 o'clock Fri
day morning, when two negro women
living near Fifteenth and Lake streets
saw a handsome, we'll dressed youth
plodding up the Lake street road. Fiji
adjoining the road heard a shot Al
IL o'clock one of the boys working
in the field started home.
Under a big tree, in a lonely spot
on the road he found the body of the
rich young man, a big gaping hole
thru his right. temple and a new 20
caliber revolver by his side.
Writing almost illegible in a new
notebook in his pocket asked the
finder OF the body to notify his uncle.

that the body be shipped to Sabetha
for burial. The book also bore his
name. In his pockets were found
more than $500 in cash and currency
and travellers checks. The body was
shipped to Sabetha today for burial.

FIRST SIGHT OF CHILD
Topekan in Divorce Case Sees Baby
in Wife's Arms.

Acie Brown, a machinists helper at
the Santa Fe, never saw his own child
until he appeared at the court house
today to fight for a divorce from his
wife, Audrey c. Brown The father
couldn't keep his eyes off the little
bundle of humanity in his wife's arms
but never once did he go over and ask
for a real look at the baby.
The baby was born several months
after Brown and his wife separated.
Brown claims his wife was insanely
jealous of his mother and other rela-
tives who loved with them at diff
ferent times. Mrs. Brown didn't wish
to be divorced and told the court they
could get along together If the rela-
tives didn't make a nuisance of them
selves She claimed that she had to
sleep with her mother-in-law and her
husband at times Judge George H.
Whitcomb granted Brown a divorce.
The Browns formerly lived on Chand-
Ter street.
