telegram from the chief of police at
Kansas City, Mo-, stating that Elmer
Showalter, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Ben
iamin Showalter, who reside at 2015
Sixth avenue, had been apprehended
there and was then in charge of the
police matron. Mr.. Showalter during
The day autographed for the boy to be
sent home. trusting him to come back
without being accompanied by any
one.
1t was yesterday morning that the
family found note on the bed in Ell
mer's room stating that he had gone
west to see the country and admon-
ishinS his parents not to worry about
him, as he would come back in
couple of years with plenty of money.
The parents, however, did not take
such sanguine view of the matter,
and instructed the police to use every
effort to locate and have him arrest
ed and brought back home. The tele-
gram from Kansas City was the re
