tho it was the same man in both in

him the money as of middle size, well

TRACING A NORMAL PUPIL
Missing Miss Robinson Never Re-
turned to School After the
Christmas HOLIDAYS

The police have been asked to make
search for Miss Annie Robinson. a
student in the normal school, who has
been missing since Christmas.
The girl went to her grandmother
Mrs. Mary A. Robinson, living in Kern
vile, for her holiday vacation and was
supposed TO return to school. But in
quiries at the normal school show that
Miss Robinson has not been there since
Christmas and the teachers have not
heard from their missing scholar.
Mrs. Robinson, the grandmother, is
very anxious and has written to Mrs
Gertrude Wilson of Santa Ana, telling
Of the mysterious disappearance of her
granddaughter. The letter was for
warded to Chief Auble, who has turned
the matter over to the detectives.
The girl boarded for time with Mrs
Cartright on South Hill street, but
nothing is known of her whereabouts
there.
