A LOST GIRL.
Elizabeth Perkins Has Besn Missing Since
Last Thursday.


On Saturday last the police OF this
city received notice. of the disappear
ance Of Elizabeth Perkins, an 1s-year-
old girl, who has not been seen since
Thursday last. The information was
made by her brother, S. f. Perkins, a
man about 80 years of age, who says
he Is from North Carolina. The pair
have been travelling about the country
for some time selling various little ar
ticles, and on Thursday last they
camped near Suburban Park, and
started out in different directions to
sell their goods. A heavy storm came
up, and Perkins. who had returned to
camp, did not worry about his sisters
non-appearance until late that night.
He made q search for her, but was un-
successful
The last place to which ne could trace
her was DOtter's, on North Canal
street, near Lees planning mill Perkins
has been there two or three times and
finds from Mr.. Dotter that the girl
came there Thursday afternoon, tried
to sell some things but failed. She sat
down during the storm and talked
awhile. Afterward, Mr.. Dotter says,
she went out, but he did not notice In
what direction.
He has kept up the search, but with
out finding any trace of her and he has
now asked the police to aid him. He
says the girl had $65 with her when
she disappeared and he fears she has
either been foully dealt with or that
she has been kidnapped or enticed
away for immoral purposes.

Boat Clubs Orgsuizing at Wilkes. Barre.

One of the results of the Lake Ariel
regatta is apparent In the formation at
Wilkes-Barre OF two rowing clubs,
which, while not yet fully completed.

selves felt In regatta events. One OF
these clubs Is being got together by
Hugh Sharps. and some OF Its members
have already done active work In the
siX-oared barge formerly owned by the
Midvale club and lately in charge OF
the Monockonocks, at Port Blanchard.

ed that there is the prospect Of in

that with Wfkes-Barre having two
clubs, Nanticoke and Pittston will sure
ly catch the fever and the result will be

Wilkes-Barre people. they will take the

ing about $50 a. m, buying tickets only
