A pair of trousers tight,

Dr.. NorthingtOn's Disappearance

On Saturday, Oct. 3lsi, Dr. c. j,
Northingtou, a leading physician and
prominent citizen of Lafayette, left
his home and came to this city. While
here he concluded TO take trip to
the northwest and left without tell
ing anyone where he was going. His
failure 10 . return home caused his
family much uneasiness and when
several days had passed without any
tydings from him the whole town of
Lafayette became greatly excited
over his mysterious disappearance.
Every effort was made to learn his
whereabouts, but not until Saturday
evening last was any news received
from him. Late Saturday telegram
came from him at Rawlins, Wyom-
ing Territory, stating that he was
with his brother and would start for
nome III lew days. The telegram
was taken to Lafayette that evening
by Mr.. Jno. w. Cooper and the whole
village was filed with joy to learn
that he was alive and safe. DIR. North
ington is gentleman of descrvedly
high standing, and all rumors that
there is anything sensational connect
ed with his departure are denied by
his friends. lie merely took a sud-
den notion to visit his brother, which
is about all there is in the case,
though 1t is little strange that he
did not notify his family.
