A few days later he changed his mimi
and started to work at the Nipper.
Last Monday morning he started for
work as usual. taking his lunch bucket
ana putting on his working clothes. That
was the last that was seen of him. He
roomed at the Maryland house and
boarded at the Maryland cafe, and when
he did not return that evening Mrs. Ryan
OF the Maryland cafe notified his nephew,
Lee Henslee, who drives a laundry wap-
on.
Mr.. Henslee visited Cockrum's room

ed. had several good suits Of
Clothes. but he had not touched any of
them, While trinkets of value were scat
tered around, proving that the occupant
a not contemplated taking a hasty de-
parture. Added to this was the fact that
Cockr71m was not addicted to the use Of
llQuOr and mad no reason to hurry away.
Mr.. Henslee at once began a search of
the city, but found no trace of his uncle.
He visited the railroad offices, but no
such person as he described had pur-
chased a ticket that day. Mr.. Cockrum
was an elderly man, past the frivolities
of life, who had always been considered
an exemplary citizen, and his action in
leaving in such an unceremonious way
can be accounted for only by the suppo-
sition that he has met with foul play.
So far as known, however, Mr.. Cock
rum had no enemies. His disappearance
will probably be another of the long list
in Butte.

mended the removal of three of the

these rooms be divided by partitions

be taken to the Marion and Third
