"A female clerk in the millinery
store OF Nus. slater, In Washington,
D. c., on the evening of the It'll went
into q large safe vault In the rear Of
the store to put some articles away
and another clerk, passing by, closed
the safe door upon her without know
iBg That she was inside. The clerk
turned the knob at the same time and
thus set the combination. The young
Iady,s Spredicament was coon discov-
cred and caused great excitement
from the fact that there was no one
present who knew the combination.
The proprietor happened In the store
accide ntslly in about NJ hours time
and released the young woman
I Two months ago. q farmer living
near Cvxad, Nebraska, was murdered
while driving along the highway, and,
as ltls team could not be found. the
murder val attributed to horse thieves.
Subsequently the murdered mans hor-
SEES we. found On the farm of James
Lemons, near the scene OF the crime.
THIS gave rise to suspicion among the
neighbors, and Lemons and his wife
broOded over the matter until their
reason gave way. The husband showed
signs OF insanity ten days ago. and has
grown worse ever since. The wife
con after became insane, and is now a
maniac. Both have been placed In an
asylum.
