Lovesick Man a Suicide.

A. F. Rice, fireman on the Illinois Central running between Waterloo and Fort Dodge, shot and killed himself with a 32-caliber revolver. Rice was in love with Belinda Pierson, a domestic in the family of Sheriff J. F. Cadwell, and the deed was done at the corner of the sheriff’s residence in Waterloo.
