morning, shortly after 7 o'clock, he dis
covered young man sitting on beer

was getting soaked by the drizzling rain.

needed as the silent drizzle which fell
on the upturned face of the befuddled
traveller. The hoodlum wagon was
called and the young man and his valise
were carried to the central district sta
tion, where he was searched. While
the officers were rifiDg his coat pockets,
with drunken rams conceit
he slipped his hand into his
pants pockets and withdrew an
empty pocket book, which he attempted
to conceal. Small sums Of money were
found in every pocket Of his clothes.
He had evidently only been in the city
half an hour, but during that brief space
he had put himself outside OF enough
whisky to render him Absolutely speech
less. He could not give his name and
Sergeant Schmittgens was about to enter
him on the blotter as unknown" when
he discovered letter among the effects
which gave the desired Information.
The envelope was addressed, "To all
whom it may concern" and the contents
read as follows;
