LOOKING FOR
A RUNAWAY

The wild fancies of youth of Is
are the cause of much worry to Depot
Master Smith of the Great Northern.
Yesterday his son Harry, who lives
on ranch near Peone Prairie post
office, started out to make his way in
the world. With nothing to start
with but the clothes he wore and his
inseparable cornet unuer his arm, he
left home to walk 25 miles to this city.
All day long his folks have been keep
ing close lookout for the boy. All
the railway depots are being watched
and the freight yards have his dis
cription.
As near as can be learned the young
man has started for Portland, where
he is known to have several chums of
his own age, who have in the past
written letters to him and urged him
to visit them at their home on the
Columbia river. Relatives of the young
man believe it to be prearranged plan
between the young men that Harry
should join them in Portland, by some
hook or crook, and then they would all
ship on some of the boats leaving Port
land and set out to see the world
The mother of the boy is heart
broken over the affair and the father
is bending every effort to prevent his
leaving the city. Harry Smith is
described as slightly understood for his
age, of stocky build, with light brown,
hair, blue eyes and fair complexion.

Whether or not this is meant to demand
that we quit sending anybody, or that
we send representatives from other

appear, but from the nature of the case,
it must be the latter.

that is not the source) of course they
are excluded from the indictment. But
