OMAHA, Aug. 11.—A special from Arapahoe gives a brief outline of a terrible tragedy there. A young man and his sweetheart went into the High School building during the night evidently determined to die in one another's arms. Workmen, who were repairing the building, on go- ing to work about 7 o’clock found the lifeless body of James Bloodworth, aged 21, with a bullet hole in his right temple, in the east doorway of the building. In his clenched hand he still held the revolver with which the deed was done. With her arms about Bloodworth lay the body of Miss Grace Cooper with a bullet wound in her temple. She was still breathing, but died about four hours later. Each left a statement that it was a case of sui- cide with each. Objections had been made to their keeping company. and this is supposed to be the cause. Miss Cooper was about 15 years of age. Both are families. The tragedy has caused a local sensation.
