Father With Motherless Children Returms From West.

M. D. Donohue and his two little daughters, the oldest not yet three and the baby a year old the 14th of this month arrived here this morning from Winona, Minn., and at once procured an automobile and drove to Remington, his former home. Mr. Donohue explained that his wife had died on Jan. 6th, leaving him with the two children. He has since taken care of them but is unable to give them the attention they" need and brought them back to relatives in Remington. Mr. Donohue lived in Minnesota for some time and -was married there but came back to Indiana and for some time prior to last June lived in Lafayette. His wife’s health began to fail and he moved back to Minnesota but it did not improve and she gradually failed until the end came. He had several physifcians see her, including the Mayo brothers in Rochester, Minn., but none could help her and there was considerable diversity of opinion as to what the trouble was.-
