Developments in the unhappy household
ofV. . 0. Pryor yesterday ere matters
of common conc rn. Information given to
the public by imiembers of the family was
monger , hIlt the smldo lights thrown upon
the ( lOmestiC imbroglIo showed that It had
reached a critical stage , At 3 o'clock yesterday -
terday morning when the reporeIs cailed
at time hmomme of J. C. Pryor , father of the
30111mg man , the members of time family
were in earnest consultation and the sounds
of weeping Indicated that the young vIfe
was pleading her cause with all the do-
quenco of a lretty woman In tears , The
reporters wore then informed that It was
time intention of the family to deny everything -
thing , patch up a truce , reunite the broken
mmmmmtrimnonlal cords and raise no monumnent
to the dead hast. During time day the
stories that continued to be poured Into
the ears of time young husband and his
family , all pointing to the young wife's infidelity -
fidelity , hcok their resolution somewhat ,
and without admitting that they believed
or disbelieved the revelations that had been
made agreed to give her the chance that
she domnamidemi to prove her inmiocenco of
the serious charges that had been muado
against her. This lie said she could oimly
do by going to Minneapolis and other places
anl obtaltiiflg proofs that would completely
exonerate her. For this avowed purpose she
left on time late train last evening for time
miortil ,
W'ith a new and suspicions husband cii
her imanils and two or three other husbands
and lovers following her with threats of denouncement -
nouncement , chic succeeded In binding imer
met victim amid hml fanmily and at the same
tinie foimmid opportunity to make new con-
neetlons , ' % 'iilch woulmi ultlniateiy Imave ri-
pemied into new matrimonial adventures. The
woman Is a pronounced blond , of a type
that makes her age exceedlmigly probheniat-
ical. When she was niatried to Pryor in
April umidor thmo mmamime of Miss Ella 13.
Wheeler of Syracuse , N. Y. , she gave her
age as 21. mind told her husband and his
tdemitls that. she vou1d celebrate her 21st
blrtimday Oii the IStim 'of May , and at that
times lie was to come into a forune , which
she stated to be varIous ammiotmnts at Va-
riotis times , ranging between $25,000 and
$40,000. If she had not made the mistake
of cahllmig around her a guard of policemen
to protect her frtnm the alleged attzick of
her alleged coimsin , a mythical Wadsworth ,
the secret of her renmarkabie life would
not have been dIvulged here. The , IJee pub-
hiiied at the time an account of time semi-
sational features of the voidlng , anI It
fell Imito time hands of RclwIn P. Wheeler , a
husband she had miiarriej and left a short
timne before coining to Coumicil I3luffs. Ordi-
harily miothii.g more than time marriage II-
cense woulil have been printed and It would
have excited neither interest nor commemmt.
WHAT IS KNOWN OF HER.
The story of the woman's life can be
briefly told. 11cr maiden name was Ella
Raycroft , and she was born in a little 1cm-
her camp , CadottVIs. . Her father was
a poor lumber cutter , or logger. Her parents
still live there , the father working in the
lumber camps and the mother runnIng a
little candy amid hunch stand. When she
was 15 years old she ran away and married
a lumberman named Wihliant Petermuian , A
few months of married life satlaflod her and
she left hIm , and turned up in St. Paul.
There she learned the photographing busi-
hose in the gallery of a man named Alfred
Mller ! , with wi'om he lived for two years ,
sustaining the relations legalized between
lmusbaml and vIfe. During her life in the
northern twin cities she posed as the wife
of Z , Parley and subsequently as Mrs.
Mones Cominsky. Edwin I' . Wheeler , the
man whose persistence In vriting letters
to the police and members of time Pryor
family and finally to a local newspaper ,
whose entire reportorial and editorial torce
had spent two weeks In arranging a "great
scoop. " led to her denouncement , first met
her in Minn apohis. She was then known
as Miss Nellie Schultz. Wheeler's account
of his relations with her is contained in
one of the numnerous letters he wrote here.
lie says :
My llama Is' Wheeler and there is where
she gets that part of her name ; the lichen
Itarrctt is assumned by her.-I can only give
loll my connection vlth her In a few words.
Sympathy played a large part with me.
I found her hoar , sick , omit of work. I secured -
cured her board , doctor and clothes. Upon
liar recovery she gained rapIdly in flesh
and being becomingly clothed made her at-
tractive. She finally told me that her stories
about her being from the enst , an hielresq
and all that crc not true. For the sake of
protecting imer I timought It heat that we
got married anI thereby stop all remarks.
I imaci no intention of gettIng married , but
10 suddenly was the thought that the sudden
manage wes time result. For some months
we ilVCI ( together happy as possIble to be.
Finally , qmmetioning her too close I found
out that sime was still deceiving me. I wrote
to her sister and found out the truth. She
then left for Omaha and from Omaha to
Council flluffs. Sb you see I am not mar-
ned to her after all and her marirage to
Mr. Fryer Is null and void. She simply
is an umivemitmiress and it I had the means to
spare I vouid have been in your city long
ago. I am not her brother ( thank the Lord )
and was not in Council Bluffs since the fail
of ' 93.
. hER LIFE IN OMAHA.
11cr career In Omaha forms one little chapter -
ter In her remarkable life. She came there
during the hatter part of February wIth a
gang of traveling pimotographers , who styled
themselves time Royal Photographimmg corn-
pany , and lived with them at. a flat at 113
South Eighteenth street , It was. during this
time timat cime met yoummg i'ryor in his capacity
of salesman at tim Drexel Shoe comapaiy.
Pryor is the captain of the Dodge LIght
Guards , a dashing cavalier , with the augges-
tion of financial rcsponeblhlty in every par-
tlon of Imis make-up , They were mutually
attracted. and within a period somewhat
Immoro extended thau forty-eight imours , s'oro
engaged to be married. When Pryor introduced -
ducod time subject of ntrimnony to his t.mthm-
er's family he permitted them to conceive
Lime impreeslon that he bad known the young
woman for a period of a year or 3nare , and
timat simo was visiting weallhy friond.s in
Ommialma. To remove time parental objectiomme
Limo young woman was brought over from her
Omaha boarding hmisco and lntrohmmced into
the Pryor household at 115 South First
street , She told them somidrous stories ci
tier life and the great wealth sime was to re-
elve In a short time , Six Veek45 of close mc.
lationshlp witim her and aim lmmmpliclt faiths in
the stories woven by her fertile brain , re-
mncyved all objectior.s to the marriage , an.i
mad it not been elernnlze4 under police pro-
Leetlomi they woulmi imare been no wiser todiy.
J , 0. Pryor , time father , is well known in ml
Limis city , where he baa been in the shoe t
Lusimies9 for mummy years. Ills son grew up
Imere and received his education in the public
melmools. They arc highly rpected , and 1mm a
bis hunilhiating trouble they have the syniml
athy of numerous friends.
