Special’ Dispatch to The Call EL PASO, Tex., March A romantic | story of a little girl knidnaped eleven | vears ago from this city and found re-| at Potter College, Bowling Green, , has just come.to light here. The { girl, now grown to womanhood, is 1S | years of age and exceptionally pretty. The story reads like a chapter from a French novel. Ip 1891, after a brief mar- | ried life, Mrs. Blanche Wade, one of the belles of the Southw: obtained a di- | vorce from her husband, Samuel Wade, jand the custody of their two children. { The divorce suit engendered much bitter- ness among the relatives of the husband and wife, and the court's decree greatly angered the kinfolk of her husband. few weeks later Samuel Wade disappear- ed and with him eldest _child, Lucille. The case created a great deal of excite- ment at the time. The mother was heart-broken and spent a small fortune in a fruitless endeavor to trace her miss- ing daughter. Once she learned from American_tourists that the little girl in rags had®been seen begging upon the streets of Chihuahua, Mexico. The Mexi- can Governor issued an order for the restoration of the child to her mother, but before its execution the girl was spirited away. Subsequently it was impossible to discover her hiding place. Two vears ago Samuel Wade died in Mexico, and, be- lieving the secret of her daughter’s where- | abouts locked in the bosom of the dead man, the mother lost hope. Now comes the strangest part of the story. The dead sister recently quarreled with her and about an estate. Much bitter- ness resulted. While their divorce suit was pending and while the rancor be- tween them was at its height, she sought out the mother of the missing girl and revealed the entire story of the kidnap- ing to her. She said the child was at the Potter Institute, Bowling Green, Ky., where she had beer a student for three years., A communication from the mother to the college authorities brought a long letter from Lucille Wade and the phot. graph of ‘an exquisitely lovely young girl.

March —Deputy Coroner erts, returned yesterday from Copper King, twenty-seven miles from this city, where. they had been to conduct an in- quest upon the bodies of Matthias and Antonio Kirch, who were killed there on | Saturday The particulars brought out at the in- quest were somewhat different from the dirst reports. It appears that on Friday night Antonio and Louis Kirch, with an- other young fellow, went with their two iting them'to a dance at Copper King. The boys commenced to drink and re- turned home in the morning drunk. An- toni6, Louis, Matthias and the hired man went into the sitting-room and began to wrestle in a good-natured way. About 5 o'clock - Mrs. Kirch, mother, got up to prepare breakfast. She noticed that the boys, while appar ently scufiling good-naturedly, were be- coming angry, and she asked them to quit. The four men then went into the yard A wrestling match commenced be- iween Antonlo and ‘the, hired man and the latter threw him. Then all com- menced to taunt Antonio about it, and finally he jumped up and said: “You may be able to throw me, but you can’t lick me,” and he struck the bired man with his f dtafely ‘intervened, saying such an ault was not fair. Antonio replied in & haughty manner and his brother cursed t. Matthias imme- him. Antonio replied in kind. Then they went at each other with their fis Louls tried to stop the right. Matthi struck Antonio, who drew his pocket-knife and inflicted a vertical cut about three inches long in Matthias’ abdomen. Matthias then turned and started to the house, saying: Il kill you all.” He went in at the front of the house ran around the house and going into Matthias’ bedroom got his shotgun. The latter had gone into the girls' bedroom and secured a rifle. In the meantime the women in the house had'been aroused and were in the yard clinging to Matthias and begging him not to shoot his brother. | Their entreatfes seemed only to enrage the man further and he swore at them violently and threatened to kill his mother. Mrs. Kirch turned to Louis and implored him to save his brother. Louls started to step between Antonio and Matthias, but the latter struck him with the barrel of his rifle, and then, raising the weapon, ired point blank at Antonio. He turned immediately with the gun still leveled with the intention of shooting Louis, but before he could work the lever for dis- arging the empty shell Louis fired at Tim with the shotgun, the load entering the right temple and killing him. Antonio lived about twenty ‘minutes. v shot in the right side. The were well known In this county and Matt had the reputation of being iarrelsome.
