A woman drlfted into this city Mon
day night who was sorely in trouble,
She was cook. She had been cooking
in Ellinwood. She had started for her
home in Joplin, Mo- She had her pock-
'etbook in her hand just as most women
have 1t. The only difference between
her and other women was that her pock.
'etbook had something in it. She met a
fellow on the train that sat down and
talked her to sleep. Her pocketbook
didn't stay in her hand, He has forgot
ten and didn't return it. He also forgot
TO return after leaving the train at Ster-
ling. Policeman Hawley bought her a
ticket which the county paid for to get
her home. The man who got her money
was wired after, but so far has not been
found.

in St. Louis. He had gone to bathe in a

his name was II. G. Durkee under which
name he has been going in ST. Louis,
His life seems TO have been very much
