their way home from their honey
moon with the honey missing
The agile detective from some sleepy
eyed Pittsburg outfit had ascertained
that they were in the Capital City and
Rhad issued phone messages for their
larrest.
Rather against the advice of Mr.
iThornley, who is one Of the members
of the rich Pittsburg firm employing
the late Pauline, the detective got a
liwarrant here for the latter and even
latter the firm chief has said that If
Pauline would come back he would EN-
,ploy him right away in his old job.
There are several bitches in the sto-
fry One is that all that the firm paid
Pauline for buying here and for hand
Ming credit that was often $4,000,
was only $50 per month and expenses,
|and the second is that the firm claim
|ed they picked him up ON the road
where he was drug drummer and
sthey had him only six months. In
the first place if they only paid him
that pitiful salary for his responsible
sty and what he did, then Pauline was
wrong for he said he got heap more
and he spent it like it. In the second
place an expense account is liberal
TEN and If he got only few humid
reds, as now thought, they cannot ham
die him. Besides all that Pauline dis
played familiarity with the business
I hat indicated much more than any
six months experience. He was both
apt, business shrewd and good apple
Judge.
Apple King Snively says: The only
trouble l had with Pauline was a
wrangle from time to time as to his
always being so sharp after the best
Fruit. He had little chance to get
away with large money. He paid for
things as they came and went.
The detective who has been snoop-
lng around the City hotel quizzing
every onef rom the bootblack down
to the second cook and who did not
leave until he was invited to go out
md get some fresh air, said that he
understood the way the lad got his last
wad was this: He made out a check
as il for apples to another duck and
the latter went to the Hagerstown
bank, got the dough, handed it over,
Pauline 'phoned for his fairy and the
last grand scoop down the line that
runs from junkets into jugs was on
Mr.. Prices relatives are respectable
and well-to-do (they always are when
ia lad goes to the bowwows) and live
in Corpus Christi, Texas, whence his
mother wrote him often.
So, hot
much. 1t is one of the richest in Pitts
burg and quoted at 100000 rating
A friend of Price says it is all stuff
about his being caught in Washing
ton. That Price and his lady fair with
the bronze hair went down on the
early Baltimore G Ohio and made di-
rect connections south and are now
in some southern city.
His baggage was gotten out of the
| City hotel very cutely. A cabman
came Friday night and carried away
nearly all his outfit and it was taken
to the girls home and packed in her
trunk. Saturday morning Price took
what was left and went to the train
and the cab raced out and got Miss
Girl.
Pauline saved some money by the
Honesty of man who keepe a cafe.
ME was sitting at a table and did not
notice his wad had slipped out and big
juicy yellow bills rolled on the floor.
The assistant rubbed his show with
molasses and started to stroll out by
the table. but the proprietor saw the
money first and handed it to Pauline.
The barkeep kicked himself After
that Pauline went into barber shop
