MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.
Rose Elliott Missing from Her Kansas Cit
Homo.
Kansas City journal

Kansas City journal.
In Kansas City one would hardly be-
lieve that person could disappear and
leave no trace Whatever of his or her
identity, but some "mysterious dlsap-
pearances" which are occurring stamp it
as a fact. In the neat two-story brick
house, No. 1888 Jefferson street, Rose
Elliott, a young girl barely sixteen years
OF age, has resided with her uncle
and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs. j. Goth
rell, since August |. She was the
idol of her aunt's affections and was sur
rounded by all the home comforts which
make home so attractive. There were no
other children in the house to annoy or
share her aunt's affections, but In mo
ment of dependency she gave up every
thing which a happy home contains and
without word OF warning she goes
quietly out and loses her identity In the
growing metropolis OF the West
The above Is brief outline OF the
story, the full particulars OF which were
told to Journal reporter by the girl's
aunt, Mrs. Cothrell, who said: Crosse
Elliott, the missing girl, is my niece and
she has been Irving with us Tor the past
year. Previous to August /, we lived in
Peoria, H., but about August we moved
to this city and have been living
here ever since. Last Friday morn

niece OF mine, who lives at 1912
Summit street, but before leaving the
house asked Rose to come over as soon
as she finished up little homework at
which she was then engaged. waited
for her for an hour and half and then

"Dld you have any trouble with your

"No, but on Tuesday morning |
scolded her about something she did, and
although she was quite huffy all day af-
forwards, she had completely recovered
her usual spirits on Friday, and ap
peared the same as usual when l left

"Yes; put on my things and said to
her, Rose, come down after me as soon
as you get through your work, and she
said, well, but did not think anything
Of that at the time.n

back door was open, which leads me to

"LET HER GO, GALLAGHER
The Alleged Origin of This Now Famous
and Common Slang Phrase.


and Common Slang Phrase.
81 find myself in the position to con
tribute something to the current litera-
ture in regard to slang phrases" says a
writer In the st. Louis Spectator. "Iu
the Sunday Sayings of last week there is
a paragraph to this effect: Il have won
dered where the new slang phrase, "Let
her 90, Gallagher and 'Chippie, get your
hair cut originated They are not par
ticularly bright or meaning on q casual
hearing, and am at a loss to account
for the universally of their usage. The
first phrase, Let her 20, Gallagher
/ first heard In Kentucky several years
ago, and have marked its gradual spread
ing. The circumstances under which it
originated were these: In Harrodsburg,
Ky, there was terrible bully and des-
perado named Bob Gallagher, who had at
different times killed some six or eight
men, but under such circumstances that
he always escaped punishment upon the
plea of self-defense. II his broils he was
usually abetted by his two sons, and the
trio were ter or in the community.
During the period of lawlessness which
succeeded the war he applied for the po-
sition of town marshal or policeman.
The authorities thought 1t might prove
good thing, as he and his sons would
be held in check, TO some extent,
and they needed just such a person to
deal with the unruly element which was
causing so much trouble, He was sworn
In, aud with good effect for time. He
inaugurated perfect reign OF terror, ana
for several years it worked like charm.
Finally one day some turbulent spirits
came in from neighboring county, and
under the influence of liquor there was
row which Gallagher and his two sons
failed to subdue with the accustomed
| liberal use of their clubs. Pulling out a
pistol he threatened to shoot. Quick as
thought the other fellow--Hanks, / be-
lleve, was his name--pulled his pistol and
snapped 1t 80 close to Gallagher that 1t
burned the button on his vest, shouting
as he did so, "Let her go, Gallagher"
Gallagher did '1et her 60" and killed
Tanks instantly; he and his sons then
fired a number OF shots into the dead
body of his victim. The murder and
trial ty which ne was acquitted created a
great sensation at the time, and the sc-
count of 1t was spreed far and wide,
coupled with the phrase, "Let her go,
Gallagher" which has since become a
| by-word.

Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1886-05-28

The East Tennessee, Virginia and Geor-
gia railroad has petitioned the City Coun-
Gil of Macon for permission to build q
passenger depot in Macon. The location
of the depot will be nearly in front
OF the city bridge, on well-drained
and level location. The plans OF the build
ing show a magnificent structure, OF mod.
ern architecture, and substantially
planned. Bids are being received for the
excavation OF the proposed site.
Concerning the lawsuit between the city
and the East Tennessee road, a Macon
special says but little can be gathered.
The city bases its claim on the fact that
the laud was granted from the city reserve
with the understanding that the shops
were to be located there permanently.
Other minor conditions of the contract. it
is averred, have been violated. and the
city will claim a forfeiture of title against
the road.
