STRANGE WOMAN
In CLARKSBURG
HER MISSION is TO ENTIcE
YOUNG GIRLS INTO A LIFE
OF SHAME.

CLARKSBURG, Sept. l. One of
the worst women in the country is
now in Clarksburg and it is reasona-
bly, sure that she is here engaged in
a work the most dastardly known =
that of decoying attractive and virtu-
Gus young girls away to a life OF
shame.
The woman came here several days
ago and secured lodging with the story
that she was here to sell goods. In
fact she has been making BLUM at
dfsposing OF some articles, but this Is
believed to be for the matter Of having
an excuse for canvassing the city and
thereby finding prospective victims.
The womans mission here came to
light when 1t was found that she has
succeeded in running one young wo-
man. The Innocent young woman was
here shopping and fell into the clutch
es of the attractive strange woman.
AS result the young woman did not
return TO her home that evening. Her
father came the next day to find her,
but failed and on the following day
the mother came and with tho aid of
the authorities located the fallen
daughter and induced her to go home.
It Is said that at the time the
strange woman was arranging to take
the young woman from here to large
eastern city /,
1t has not been positi lively ass ertain
ed whether OF not this woman is here
