These id specialists would gradu-
ally have reduced us to penury. The
fact is, they failed to cure Kaiser Fred
erick, who also had smokers cancer.
Why should they cure me? My suffer
ings are intolerable.
"Good-by. Take what money is left.

cal treatment. His wife, who is twenty

ROMANTIC SADIE JORDAN
SHE TALKS GLowINGLY ABOUT CAS-
TIES IN SPAIN.
Her Parents Receive Two Remarka-
Bile Letters-Her Sweetheart a
Playhouse Usher.

Little Sadie Jordon, who disappeared
from her home, III Maple street, Tuesday
noon. is now believed to be in the city.
Wednesday night her parents received a
letter from the girl, who said she was mar
ried and was then on her way to Spain.
She said she was happy. The girl said it
made her happy to look out from her villa,
and the river seemed to stretch it's arms
toward her, she POLITICALLY declared. She
said when her husband stepped to her side
and she looked at the river she wondered
if 1T was thirsting for her. When she was
alone she thought of the whole family.
She said she was now a senorita, for she
had married a Spanish nobleman By the
name of Senior Alpase. The letter asked
forgiveness. The girl said she would leave
indianapolis at 4 o'clock Wednesday after
noon on her journey to her mother-in-
laws home in southern Spain. The letter
said she would never again return to In
dianapolis.
Accompanying the girls letter was a
small sheet of paper lightly written in lead
pencil supposed 10 be from the alleged
Senior Alpase. This letter asked forgive
ness for the two. The writer said they
were then on their way to Portugal,
Spain," to the writer's grand home. 1t was
signed by ''Senor Alpase."
The writing in the letter supposed TO
have been penned by the girl was in the
perpendicular style now taught in the pub
lie schools. The spelling was crude and
showed the writer not to be well versed in
photography. The letter signed by the
man was much worse in composition than
the girls. He SHOWED lack of knowledge
about his home, If he were a Spaniard, by
referring TO Portugal. Spain"
Mrs. Jordon, mother of the girl, was in a
state of collapse yesterday over the dis
appearance of her daughter. 1t was learned
that Sadie had made an engagement with
a small girl named Stella Foster to meet
her at the door of the Park Theater yester-
day afternoon. The Foster girl, when
seen, said she came down town with the in
tention of meeting Miss Jordon. 1t is
thought hat when the latter heard through
the newspapers of yesterday morning that
her absence from home had aroused such
great curiosity she decided not to appear.
The Foster girl said Miss Jordon had been
going with one of the ushers at the Park
Theater whose first name Is Frank. Bob
Campbell, special policeman, said he had
heard the girl was not staying at home and
refused her entrance to the playhouse. Ii
is the ~supposition of those who know the
girl that she is living in a block near West
and Washington streets. Sadie Jordon is a
mere child, wearing short dresses.
