AN OLD WoMAN's wANDERINcs.

Mrs. John Meyers Becomes Demented
and Walks 20 Miles In the coun-
8 try. s "a \
Mrs. John Meyers, aged rs, who
lives with her husband Just south Of
John Robddouis house, was brought to
the city last evening by Mrs. Andy
Peterson, Mrs. VIM. Smith and man,
Of Apple Greek, dn sad mental condd-
ton. The ladies had found her walk
ing along the road near the Peterson
home. The Wanderings of the old
lady were rather remarkable. At 8
a. m. she left Reade & Co.'S store
with a package of oranges and apples.
The next seen of her was at Menoken
and later when she was met by the
two ladies about noon, as they were
driving to a neighbors. The old lady
acted so queerly that the women
watches her. They found her pocket
book with 81 in DIT, her handkerchief
and where she had made fire by the
roadside. Broken eggs were beside
the embers and unIcooked potatoes lay
about. Her apples and oranges were
scattered along the road, where she
'had thrown them, filling her apron
With stones instead The old lady
either could or would not tell the
women who SHE was or where she
came from or where she was going,
and finally made a dash to get through
the barbeId wire fence of the Peterson
pasture, resulting in her clothes get
ting inextracably tangled in the barbs
and her face and, body badly cut I'M
her struggle. A sneak of a man driv-
ing by refused to help the women, and
went his way. &=%s st
Unable to get the old lady free with
out help, the two women drove to
Menoken, but could find no one there
that could leave, and they had their
seven-mile drive for naught, but they
learned that Mrs. Meyers had passed
through there earlier in the day, so
THE poor creature must have walked
about 20 miles to get to where SHE
WAS found. ~ $685.. ! -.
During the absence of the two
women Mr.. Peterson and another man,
returning home, found and got Mrs.
Meyers out of the fence and to the
house. She WAS very badly cut up
Her wounds were attended to as best
the women could and after much
trouble she was induced to get into
the wagon with the two women and a
man, who brought her home. Mr.,
Meyers was in the country working,
and was sent for, ARRIVING late last
night, when he found his wife in q
high fever. Mrs. Meyers was reported
much better today, both physically and
mentally.

thoroughly appreciated by the audi
