I*a Crosse.—Roland Dickson, Dres-bach, Minn., and Mrs. Hertha McGovern, th:s city, are in hospitals believed to be fatally injured as the result of the alleged attempt of Mrs. McGovern to commit suicide following a lovers’ quarrel. Dickson claims Mrs. McGovern sent word by the police that she was seriously ill, and that when he reached her home she locked the door and, backing into a corner, flashed a revolver and fired. The woman claims she shot herself twice and that Dickson was shot while trying to wrest the gun from her. Neither will throw any light upon the motive. One bullet entered Mrs. McGovern’s intestines and a second was prevented from piercing her heart by a corset stay.
