WIFE 32, SHOOTS AGED NEILLSVILLE MAN IN QUARREL

Neillsville, Wis., Aug. 31 - Dr. A. Matheson, 72, was shot twice yesterday by his wife, 32, after a quarrel over their three children. The couple separated two weeks ago.

The shooting occurred at a camp near Black River Falls where Mrs. Matheson and the children had been staying.

Mrs. Matheson had left Neillsville with the children after the husband had obtained a court order making him their guardian, and ordering Mrs. Matheson to give up the children to her husband.

Sheriff Kutchera was to accompany Dr. Matheson to Black River Falls to serve the papers, but Dr. Matheson preceded the sheriff. The wounds are said to be slight.
