Last night a woman took charge Of
an Illinois Central coach at the depot
and refused to leave, even after being
threatened by the depot employees, who
warned her that they would call the
police. She appeared at the depot
early in the night and one Of the de-
pot officials learned that she was not
waiting for a train, but only there TO
pass away the time. He told her that
the depot was not lodging house and
that IL she was not waiting for train
she would have to leave. When she
refused he threatened to call the po-
lice and she replied that he need not
do this as she had come TO stay and
police or any one else could not make
her go. She went into a coach that
is kept warm for the accommodation
Of passengers, the heaters being out Of
repair at the depot and remained all
night. She laid about the depot this
morning until Lieutenant Moore was
notified and sent officers there, and
when they arrived she said her name
was Mrs. Tully, and that her home

she had been living in Mayfield. She

and was to take her up the road where
he had q dairy, and employ her as

are Of the opinion that she has been
victimized and that no ticket will be
sent her. At last accounts she was
still at the depot.
