PERKINS POSTMASTER PUGH,
Has Wandered Away and Cannot Be
Found.
He Was Short SIPS, But the Money
Was Paid by His
Brother.

Another youth has gone wrong, and as
In the case of Deputy County Clerk
Landsborough, he has brought upon
himself the stigma of official dishonesty
though the sum involved is but a trif1e.
Up to a short time ago Samuel G
Foster had been Postmaster at Perkins
for some eighteen years, and though he
vas always square with Uncle Sam he
was dropped since Cleveland's last cleo
ton and young man named Frank E.
Pugh appointed in his place. This
change was made largely through the
influence of John Rooney, the Demo
cratic warhorse Of American River
Flat
There Is not much money In the posi-
tion-not more than $40 per month-but
1t brings considerable trade to a coun-
try store when the Postoffice is located
therein
Matters went along smoothly with
young Pugh until quite recently, when
complaints began to be sent in regard
ing alleged shortcomings of the Perkins
Postmaster, and there were delays In
the receipt of statements from Pugh
at headquarters. So ON Wednesday
PoStoffice Inspector Thran dropped into
Perkins and promptly instituted am ex-
animation of Pughs accounts.
The result was that he found a short
age of $125, and he called on Pugh to
make good that sum- The latter replied
that he would do so, and excused him
self while he went to the family resi-
dence, as he said, to get the money.
But he never came back, and up to a
late hour last night neither his relatives
nor friends have been able to learn
anything as to his whereabouts. When
he went to the house he placed his pis-
tol in his pocket and started off in the
direction of the American River, which
Is but a short distance away.
A telephone message from Perkins
last night stated that friends of the un-
fortunate young man and his father
family had searched the fields and
brush along the river for miles, but
found no trace of him. There are some
who fear that, smarting under the
modification Of the affair, he may have
eLded his life, while others believe he
Will shortly be heard from alive and
well.
The amount Of the shortage was al
once paid over by s. A. Pugh, the Post
masters brother and he was placed in
charge of the office by Inspector ThraH.
Among the effects of the Postoffice was
found a letter of advice showing that a
postal order for $50 had been forward
ed from the East to Mrs. William H
Bishop of Perkins. but Mrs. Bishop
never received the order, though she
had several times inquired for It.
The exposure and flight of young
Pugh was a surprise to the people Cd
Perkins and vicinity. All the members
