Rev. G. w. PtxIey, of PrairievilIe,
Mich, Is Suspected by the Irate
Father, and There Is Likely to
Be Hot Time In That Town
When Mr.. sSmith Gets There
With His Arsenal.
Edna A. Smith, the ffteen-year-old
daughter of William F. Smith, real
estate man, at "a East Third street, is
missing and Mr.. Smith charges Rev.
G. w. Pixley, a Baptist minister, re-
siding In Prairieville, Mich, with hav-
ing either kidnapped the girl or Undue
ed her, under false pretenses, to leave
the city.
Mr.. Smith lives on Parnell avenue,
on the river bank off the West Seventh
street line, about midway between the
end of the short line and Fort Smelling.
He was seen at his home by a G | o e
reporter last night, and told the fol-
lowing story:
"Ednas mother is dead, and up to q
year ago Edna has been living with
Miss Georgia Dewolf, of Prairieville,
Mich, in whose care l left her at her
mothers death. A year ago l learned
that Miss Dewolf was neglecting the
child, that Edna had growing upon her
a complaint called curvature of the
spine, and was not receiving any medi-
cal attendance. l consulted with DR..
Gillette, of Seven corners, and asked
his advice. He told me to Immediately
have the girl placed in the hands of a
physician or she would probably be-
ccme hunchback.
81 took the first train for Prairieville,
Mich and told Miss Dewolf that she
must either have a doctor for Edna or
let her come to me. She refused to
guarantee to me that Edna would re-
ceive proper care and I made prepara-
tons to take the girl home. l want it
understood that l was not under obli-
cations to this woman, as l have re-
ceipts showing that I have paid her
amply for the care of my daughter.
Miss Dewolf and her folks at first OBJ
jccted to my taking Edna to st: Paul
and their objections were seconded by
young minister named G. w. PiXley,
who took an active voice in the matter
until I felt obliged to tell him he had
no business there at ALL PiXley has
wife and two small children. When 1
| started for the depot with Edna, Pixley
| shouted after me:
Bring her back In three months
or I'll come for her"
LAS soon as Edna and reached here
| L took her to DR.. Gillette and he pro-
ceeded to give her q course of treat
| ment. She appeared very happy here,
and after passing through the Monroe
| school she entered the Central high
school with the present year.
''In the meantime this minister, Pix
| ley, had been writing Edna letters ur-
til l put q stop to it by refusing To
allow her to receive any communities
lions from him. He constantly urged
| her to return to Prairieville. 1 had
no intimation that the child was going
to leave me and l feel sure that last
| Tuesday morning when she left fol-
school she had no such idea, either.
She started for, the high schoo

JAPANESE SCANDALS.
Alleged Crooked Management of
Railway Enterprises.

TACOMA, Wash, Sept. 29.-Japanese
advices just received state that scan
dals have developed concerning the
financial management Of two japanese
railway enterprises. Directors of the
Nishi Mari railway company have dis
covered a deficiency of 275, 900 ven in
the company's assets and have de-
manded an explanation. President
Manako has made an unsatisfactory
statement to the effect that the miss
ing money has been used for promo
ton expenses" The Nippon, a news
paper Of Toxic, makes serious charges
against the administration of the For
mosa Railway company's finances, the
management of which it pronOunces
scandalous. This company was organ
lied several years ago, with Is 900, 900
yen capital, to build a railroad from
the south to the north end of Formosa.
Actual work has never been commence
ed, and the money paid in for stock
has apparently been squandered.
