Wash., Aug. 22 (U.R) The mystery surrounding the fatal beating of Mrs. Lillian Sielk, 35-year-old Spokane housewife, was solved with the discovery of the body of her husband In the Spokane river. Chief Deputy Sheriff Mons Ulvin said the body of the 50-year-old Northern Pacific store keeper was found after a week long search and confirmed the original theory that Sielk had killed his wife In jealousy and then taken his own life. Prosecuting Attorney Leslie Carroll said that finding of Sielk's body, condition of which Indicated that he took his own life, "virtually closed the case " iCE&j. the area. f ' '. i' ..TSX ,t-T X' ..... ir- , l'Miiu ,Muaaa V Wch M,b,U4, Drive in wda?

W V V Olive Barber's Letter When you read this story it may seem as unreal to you as similar stories have seemed to me when I read them. But I know one of the three people in volved and even yet, though the affair is as settled as such an affair ever can be settled, think ing of It can still make me gasp like the Madam Grundy which I am not. The couple had been married several years before war broke out. The man was soon inducted into the army and after a few months overseas was reported missing in action. More time elapsed and the government notified the woman she must consider her husband as dead. That the woman then remar ried was not because she had forgotten. Rather was it be cause she remembered; rememb ered how sweet it had been to her alone; some one to whom every thing she did mattered. Too, she was still young and the years stretched ahead. The past was past and no grieving on her part could bring it back. So, as I said, she remarried. Perhaps her first marriage had set too high a standard for marital companionship. In any case she found there was never for her the excited expectency on hearing her husband's ap proach there had been in those years she was trying so hard to forget; never the feeling of one ness she had once experienced. She regretted this more for her new husband's sake than her own for she knew she was not giving him what he deserved an undivided heart. He was a fine chap and worthy of the best; not this second best she brought him, she thought with wry bitterness at herself for her lack. Then this husband too, went to war. Some way she got the feeling he was glad to go for more than patriotic reasons: as though he realized their relation ship was not all he had hoped it would be. And then, as one raised from the dead, her first husband re turned! Instead of hitting the ceiling, as most husbands would have done under like circum stances, he was most understand ing; saw her remarriage for what it was a grasping at past happiness. So they sat down to gether and wrote the man in the South Pacific. He never replied; Just signed whatever papers were necessary. The woman told me she likes to think that in time he will find a wife who will give him what she couldn't a heart never before tenanted by an other.
