Mrs. Lizzie Miller, q penniless old wo-
man aged 81 years, who arrived in tha

was placed In the care of Police Mafron
Taylor. pending an investigation as to
what can be done to help her out of

formation on certain points. she said sils
would apply TO the Christian women of
this city TO help her. She says that she
lived in Buckhannon, w. Va, with her
grandson, whose name she refuses to give
for fear that he may hear of her trouble

Mrs. Mary Miller, who lives, according to
her story. about nine miles from EHens-
burg. Her ticket was over the Union
Pacific railroad to Seattle. and while on

PLANTATION why tho ticket was purchased
to this city instead of EIlensburg, which
conveys the impressions that in the place
she lived the idea of the extent of WASH
ington is very vague. She seems to
think that because her grandson is a
knight OF Pythias the Knights OF this
city VIII look after her.
About a week ago this same woman. or
one who has exactly the same name, was
at Kalama and claimed her relatives lived
in this city. She also spoke as If Lydia
