MRS. MGINNIS is MISSING.
Likewise Securities Amounting tO
S1S7,OOO.

From the Boise Capital News is
taken the following:
Daniel McGinnis, a prominent
stockmar, whose home was near
Glenns Ferry, it will be remembered,
died a few months ago, leaving an es-
tate valued at over S25O,000. The
heirs are the widow, Mrs. Kate Nc
Ginnis, and several nephews of the
deceased. The heirs are already in
court. but the latest feature is the
alleged disappearance of Mrs. Nc
cuIities. Speaking of the matter the
Mountainhome Bulletin says:
Mrs. Kate McGinnis, widow of the
late Daniel McGnnis. is said to have
left the state, carrying with her secur-
tiles belonging to the estate, the esti-
mated value of which is S1SI,00O,
which she had been ordered to turn
into the probate court of this county.
on this showing, Judge Stimson is
sued a subpoena, ordering her to APP
pear in his court April 4. and deliver
the securities specified in the COM
plant. Thes subpoena was served on
the defendant in Boise March 90, by
the sheriff of Ada county and duly
returned.
Mrs. McGinnis ignored the service
of this summons and failed to appear
April 4. as ordered. Last Saturday
Judge Stimson placed in the hands of
Sheriff Ross an attachment for her
person. ordering the officer to bring
her into his honor's presence that she
might he punished for contempt of
court and forced to give up the secur-
/ itieG which she is alleged to hold con-
cealed. Sheriff Ross returned Mon
( day and reports that he could not find
| Mrs. McGinnis and had been informel /
and believed that she had left the
state.
The securities which are said to be
missing consist of $4,000 in notes
over $4,000 in certificates of deposit
in various banks, numerouse mort
cages, the aggregate value of which
is not accurately known, deeds to rea'
estate held in her name, together with
written evidence that the property
really belonged to deceased.
Some people hereabouts claim Il
have more or less definite knowledg,
as to where Mrs. McGinnis is. bu
they are not talking for publication.

With its doors all painted red:
A whiff came through the open door,
Was sleeping or awake?
The smell was that OF doughnuts,
Like my mother used to make.
