thurs pocket book containing all
the checks and drafts but minus
the $50 in cash.
Mr.. Danfofth questioned the
officer and heard a wonderful
story. The private who had
turned over the purse said he
was riding on a south bound Min
nehaha car when, happening to
feel in his pocket, he hit upon a
we'll filled purse. He told his pal
at once but net wishing to arouse
any suspicion they waited until
they had left the car and sought
a. sequestered spot before taking
an inventory The purse was
tound TO contain the papers but
no cash. The soldiers carried
their find to the post and tlrned
it over to their superior officer.
A further investigation of this
story has been made by the police
but without results.
At the final meeting of the
class, Manager Danforth was
condoled with by his fellow class
men and insistent offers of max
ing ,1p the loss out of the class
funds were made but steady re-
fused by Mr.. Danforth. He re-
ported a net surplus from the play
of nearly $500 or more than
enough to make UP the unusually
large deficiency accruing from the
senior promenade.

mystery of the lost purse OF how
the university senior class play

way into the pocket of one of
Uncle Sans fghters-is the title
of a rnelodrama, the writing of
which is seriously contemplated
by Manager Arthur Danforth
who was recently relieved of a
purse containing nearly $500 in
cash and checks.
The inspiration for what prom
ises to be monumental piece of
dramatic literature is derived
from the peculiar circumstances
surrounding the finding Of the
purse and is the sequel to the
tragedy of a week ago Suiiday.
Mr., Danforth was,on his way up
town on 4 Minnehaha car when
he discovered that his purse had
been stolen. The fecepticle held

and the manager at once left the
