Father Finds Son Lost At Age Of 2,
 After 20 Years
(By Associated Press.)

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Dec. 25. N A son who lost his father
 twenty years ago and a father who searched as long for his son and wrote 'finis" to a Christmas drama of real life today with proposal and an impending wedding to add romance to the closing chapter.
 The son is Arthur Swanson, taken from his home when he was two years old, brought up among strangers un- der the name of Arthur Peterson, who thought for twenty years that his father was dead. The father is Ed ward Swanson.
 Mir. Swanson, a stationary engineer, went to Green Bay, Wis, then to Chicago, then to Sisters Bay, Wis.,, seeking his son. At last he came to Minneapolis. Arthur Peterson, sit ting in a local theater, with "the girl' was called to the telephone by an usher, told to call his own home. He met a man who called himself MT. Hanson" They talked minute then the man said: I'm not Hanson. I'm Edward Swanson, your father"
 The new found father bought new suit and a diamond ring for Arthur. Today, at their first Christmas tree together in two decades, father and son shook hands-and the son pro- posed to "the girl" And everyone was happy.

SECRET WEDDING
 BACK OF TRAGEDY
Shattered Romance Leads Man To Kill Wife
 And Himself

RANDOLPH, N. Y, Dec. 25.-Two l elopments, a divorce and an abduction in all of which the same girl figured, were disclosed today in connection with domestic tragedy here yesterday. Pe- ter McLarney killed his young wife, shot her mother and brother, then killed himself.
 Mrs. Grace Anderson, mother-in-Iaw of the slayer, and her son, John, are expected to recover from bullet wounds inflicted by McLarney while he had them locked in a bathroom after he had taken the life of his wife, Dorothy An derson McLarney.
 McLarney and the girl were sweet hearts five years ago. She was the IT, year-old daughter of the late Clarence A. Anderson, then president of the Ran dolph Furniture company. He was the son of Owen McLarney, superintendent in the furniture works.
 In September, 1920, they eloped and kept it a secret. The girl wife went to Dana Hall, a Massachusetts school, to prepare for Wellesley college and her 21-year-old husband remained in Randolph.
 But the secret leaked out. Mrs. An derson had the marriage annulled be- cause her daughter was under age. By the time of the Christmas school holi- days, however, the girl was of age, so she and McLarney again eloped to Jamestown and again were married by the same clergyman who performed the first ceremony.
 Within q year the romance faded. They separated, their baby boy was placed in the care of its grandmother. When a divorce was granted Mrs. Me Larney last fall entered Pratt insti- ute as a student.
 McLarney found her in New York several weeks ago. He urged her to remarry him. When she refused, ac- cording to authorities, he forcibly re- moved her to a hotel in New Jersey, kept her there all night and left her the next day prisoner in the hotel. He was charged with Mann act viola tion for that episode and was out on $2,000 bail
 The former Mrs. McLarney came from New York to spend Christmas with her mother. While the young woman was calling at the home of Mrs. Will liam Atchison, McLarney entered and shot his former wife to death with five pistol bullets.
 Then he went to the home of his mother-in-law and shot her and her son after locking himself in the bathroom with them.
 Deputy Sheriff Bragg appeared and ordered McLarney to surrender. A shot through the bathroom door was the answer. It started a duel which ended when Bragg crashed the door and found McLarney dead with a bullet through his head, a pistol in one hand and stiletto in the other. The coroner filed a certificate of suicide.
