(Palladium Special)

Connersville, Ind., Sept SO. Thomas Lantz of Milton came to this city yesterday morning after his son Ralph, who a few days ago was married to

Miss Minnie Bruebach of Grand Rapid 3

Mich., and who arrived here Monday morning, and have been staying at the McFarlan hotel. As has been stated before, Lantz has suffered with some sort of mental derangement for several years. His condition at times is perfectly rational, while at other times he is sadly "off his trolley." A week or two ago Lantz made several attempts to get married in Chicago and even went so far as to procure two or three marriage licenses without consulting his prospective brides and in each case the "bride" turned him down without consideration. He Was Determined.

Lantz was determined to get married, however, and his failure with th Chicago girls seemed not to wound his feelings, for his affections were quickly turned towards Grand Rapids, where he met Miss Bruebach and whom hi married, according to her own story.

after an acquaintance of twenty-four

hours. Mrs. Lantz told that she is seventeen years old and that her parents gave their consent to her marriage. Miss Bruebach formerly was a telephone operator in Grand Rapids, but was employed in a store in that city when she met Lantz a few days ago. Lantz seemed to make a specialty of telephone operators. The Chicago girls he attempted to make share his lot in life were also telephone operators. Bride Ic Very Young. The bride is very young .and seemed not to have noticed any of the peculiarities of her husband. He is a rather good looking chap and the girl's short opportunity for observation did not give her any chance for much acquaintance. Yesterday morning, however, the young wife seemed to have "tumbled" to the fact that sonietMng was wrong

with her husband. To a party she j

met at the hotel she said: "What's the matter with my husband anyway?" The young woman seemed to be suffering considerably with nervousness. Lantz made no resistance or objection to accompanying his father home. It wa3 thought he miht resist and an officer was on hand, prepared to take a hand in the event the young man started anything. . He readily agreed to his father's request and accompanied by his bride, left for Milton at 11 o'clock. Sympathy Expressed. Much sympathy is expressed for Lantz's family and especially for his young wife, who has evidently made a mistake. His father said this morning that his son at times is as sane hs any one and when rational is a good business man and can earn a good salary. A few months ago he was employed as , salesman by an embalming fluid manufacturer and made several hundred dollars in the two months he was employed by this firm. The young man spent all this money in getting a wife in Chicago and Grand Rapids. Lantz's father is an undertaker at Milton.

Anty Drudge Telb How to Prevent Laundry Mistakes. Jones 'Heavens, Jemina! Look what came back from the laundry! Three pairs of women's stockings and five petticoats.
