          A few weeks ago  Mrs. Lizzie Nading, now of Flatrock, brought suit against her husband, Walter Nading, for divorce and $10,000 alimony.  A restraining order was granted to prevent Nading from disposing of his property.  Soon after the suit was filed the friends of the young couple induced them to kiss and make up and live together.  This was accomplished and Nading went to Flatrock where he and his wife...

          Shelbyville, Ind., Sept, 19. --- Last week  Mrs. Walter Nading  instituted divorce proceedings against her husband, naming  Miss Ruby Clark  as correspondent, and asking $10,000 alimony.  Nading, it is said, continued visiting Miss Clark until Friday morning, when he took a train for Flat Rock, ten miles south, where his wife is staying with her parents.
          Miss Clark, learning of his action, secured a livery rig and started for Flat Rock.  On reaching there she entered the house where Nading was attempting reconciliation with his wife, and, he being small of stature and she very large and robust, she deliberately picked him up, placed him in the buggy and was starting away with him when interrupted by friends of Mrs. Nading, whose husband was torn away from the attempted abductress and returned to her.  Mrs. Nading will withdraw her suit.  Mr. Nading will not visit Shelbyville for a day or two.  Miss Clark is at her home.  The buggy she hired is in the stable.

SENSATIONAL  SUIT
----------
Mrs. Walter Nading
Wants a Divorce
From Her Husband,
Also $10,000 Alimony
----------

         Through her attorneys, John A. and Charles H. Tindall,  Elizabeth Nading  has brought suit for divorce from Walter Nading and asks for $10,000 alimony. It has been known several days that Mrs. Nading would bring the suit but it was not made public for the reason that Mrs. Nading’s attorneys wanted to secure a restraining order preventing defendant from disposing of any of his property.  This was obtained yesterday by Attorney Charles H. Tindall, who appeared before Judge Buckingham at Franklin.  Mr. Nading is a son of the late John Nading, of Flat Rock, and was married to  Miss Elizabeth Cloud,  in Topeka, Kansas, some three years ago.  About two years ago they moved to this city, he being employed in the office of Mr. William Nading, the grain merchant, as book-keeper.  Several months ago Nading deserted his wife, and it is alleged by her, has been guilty of adultery with one  Ruby Clark,  who is known as one of the “gay girls of the town” and who is Mistress of a house on East Washington street, known as the old Randall property.  Mrs. Nading is now in the city, a guest at the home of Mr. William Nading, but has been living with her parents who have become residents of Flat Rock.  They have no children and the defendant in the suit is supposed to be worth $30,000.

         Lizzie Nading, through her attorneys, Tindall & Tindall, has filed suit in the circuit court from her husband, Walter Nading, in which she asks for an absolute divorce, $7,000 alimony and a restraining order to prevent him from disposing of his property until this case can be heard. The suit is one of the most sensational that has been filed in the courts here for some time.  Nading is well known in this city and better known at Flatrock where he was raised.  His father died a number of years ago leaving a large estate, an administrator being appointed and a guardian for the children, none of them being of age, and the understanding is that no division of the estate is to be made until the youngest child becomes of age.  A stipulation of the will was that the profits of the estate were to be expended in the purchase of real estate.  Nading married three years ago an exceptionally nice looking girl named  Cloud, her parents residing near Flatrock.  They seemed to have lived happily together until a few weeks ago when there were bad stories told concerning Nading's conduct.  They were living then on West Mechanic street.  Their home was broken up, Mrs. Nading returning her to her people.  Nading reached his majority on Wednesday of this week and Mrs. Nading at once filed suit.  Her allegations are not few.  Nading is charged with consorting with a frail creature of this city and with desertion.  As stated above she asks for divorce and $7,000 alimony.  Nading is supposed to be worth about $20,000.

          A letter received at Flatrock yesterday from  Mr. John Nading  says that he barely escaped with his life from the burning sleeper in which he was riding in Texas, mention of which was made the other day.  He secured his pats, coat and vest when he started out, but was overcome by the smoke before reaching the door, and had it not been for  Dr. Connelly, his companion, who dragged him out, he would have suffocated.  A number of other passengers in the car lost all their clothes.  One man lost $900 in money.
