Mrs. Ranter had filed divorce proceedings three weeks ago, following iiu estrangement of six months, standing, and members of the family say Ranter had threatened to kill his wife about three weeks ago when she visited him in Fremont.

He had been ompioved in a restaurant at Fremont, for the past two years, and induced his wife to come therq by telling her be bad some money (or her On her return to Lincoln Mrs. Katner told her he had threatened ber with a revolver and that she bad snatched it from him and thrown it out a window. Ranter left Fremont Thursday, telling his employer he would be away two or three days. He stayed at the Schaffer home with his wife that night, relatives say, and they were heard quarreling on Friday. Katner went to the home of his slater, Mrs.

Aleth Philpot, adjacent to the Schaffer residence, and was there until 3:30, when he returned and asked to see Mrs. Ranter, and was told that was not at home. He went back to the Philpot home and again sought his wife at 3:15, finding her at home i his time. They went into a northwest bedroom and were heard quarrel- and twenty minutes later the hots were fired.

Three bullets had entered Mrs. breast, one grazing her cheek and another fracturing the collarbone, and Ranter had shot himself thru the right temple. Death was almost instantaneous. The couple had been married six years, according to Mrs. and formerly lived in Omaha.

A noticeable change is the transfer of the house from the southwtvtt corner of the square to near the north corner. For many years the aio house was a landmark when it stood at the corner of the at Ninth and streets.

Haymarket -quare was the camping place for gypsies for some time, but few of the wanderers are ever found oa the square now because the police frown upon their visits. It has long been a Mecca for horse traders, and thro there is not as nuich room available as formerly for horses, traders may still occasionally be found there. The square was once one of the big markets for hay. An old trader said that as many as 200 loads of hay a day were handled and it was the immense hay traffic that fixed the name by which the square has long been known. There is a tradition that gyp-ties stopped long enough on Haymarket square to hold wedding festivities and the story goes that it was from the square and from a covered wagon that the daughter of a horse trader of long ago eloped with the son of another horse trader.

The city is fast encroaching on the space of the square. The trucks of the street department are now quar- erod in a building at the northwest of the square. Soihe day the city is expected to build a handsome modem fire, police and health building replacing the present oki structure. Steps were taken some years ago to make the square more attractive by parking a strip of it along the edge of Tenth The makeshift buildings and the piles of surplus material give the square the appearance disorder.

He takes as sparring partner a man who is nearly his equal in weight and wallop. A better simile may be found on the football field. An eleven composed of eleven best football players in America is not a football team until It has played together. Team work must be built up.

The fleet worked together as a Now the big fleet is better in material than it was in 1914, but the personnel has gone off. This could not have been avoided.

For years it was divided and its energies dissipated, it did useful work, but it was no; the work of a battle fleet preparing for action. When the United States went into the war the battleship crews were give gun crews to the merchant vessels under convoy. The command had no opportunity to work the big fleet together as a team, and, in the opinion of every officer in the navy, fleet teamwork is essential to rleet value. Since the war the fleet has been divided. With half on the Pacific and half on the Atlantic coast, without manoeuvring there can be no impossible.
