The chorus girls who are appearing at
the Grand this week were in an awful
plight last night.
When it was time for them to make
up for their first appearance before the
footlights it was discovered that they had
no stockings. And with the abbreviated
dresses worn by the chorus, stockings
were very essential part of the make
up.
The discovery of the loss was made
known to the manager, and for time
things behind the curtain We're very much
topsy-turvy. The girls couldn't go on
without stockings and there were no stock
ings. Even the slippers which the girls
We're supposed TO wear were not to be
found in their customary places.
Everybody behind the scenes Joined in
the search. but there We're no stockings
to be found.
Finally the girls were induced to attire
themselves in their everyday hosiery, and
after some delay. the curtain was rung
up.
The stockings which are usually worn by
the chorus girls are silk and are kept in
one of the large dressing rooms down
stairs. After the show it was discovered
that two st. Paul girls, inspired by de-
sire to carry a spear in the second row.
had been admitted to the theater follow
ing the performance Monday night. and
the theft of the stockings was charged to
them.
The police were notified of the loss yes

FRIENDS FEAR HE
HAS MET FOUL PLAY
Young Restaurant Proprietor
Drew $500 a Week Ago and
Has Disappeared.

Leaving restaurant which he had
purchased six weeks ago, Rudolph B.
Vollmer, young man of steady habits,
has strangely disappeared, and after a
weeks searching on the part of his
friends and relatives and the police OF
the Twin Cities no trace of his where
abouts has been found. He left the
restaurant, 352 East Seventh street, a
week ago yesterday, saying that he IN
tended visiting his brother, L. B. Will
mer, of Minneapolis, and has not been
seen since.
AT the time of his disappearance he
is known to have had in his possession
about $500, which he drew from the
bank a few days previously. His ia
ther, r. B. Vollmer, of Lake Elmo,
came to st. Paul a few days after his
son disappeared and Immediately COM
menced search. The young man had
not been at the home of his brother in
Minneapolis, and had not been seen by
any of his friends.
Vollmer had received from his father
few months ago $500 with which to
start in the restaurant business. He
left his position as cook at the Spencer
branch restaurant and purchased the
restaurant on East Seventh street, for
which he paid 1925. His enterprise was
fairly successful and he had spoken
hopefully of the future.
May Have GambIed Away His Money.
| The only possible explanation of the

by Henry Rauber, chief cook at the
| Spencer branch restaurant, who was
an intimate friend, who suggests that
| Vollmer may be keeping out of sight
| through cha grin over loss of his money
| at gambling.
| He and I were out together the
| Sunday night before he left" said
Rauber, "and he said that some one
| had told him that there was big money
| in gambling. This person had told
| Vollmer that he just made $4,000 at
| gambling in Minneapolis, and Vollmer
| said that this was easy money. ad-
