NO CLUE FOUND
OF MISSING BOY

The whereabouts of the little
Shepard boy, who disappeared
from his home near Solway last
Friday, still remains a mystery,
and the parents of the child and
those who have aided in the
search for the body have about
given up hope of ever finding
any solution of the mystery.
Yesterday afternoon, Peter
Doussaint, the clairvoyant, was
at the Shepard place and made
another attempt to locate the
child by means of his so called
powers.
Doussaint took the searchers
to the spot where he quit pro-
ceedings the previous day and
told the men that an angel had
come down from above and taken
the child from that point.
Upon returning to the house,

Whiting Has a Dou.


A. b. Whiting spent yesterday
in the city. When the time came
for him to return to the scene of
his labors at Blackduck, be ap-
preached the M. & I. depot from
an alley, being attached to dog,
the exact specie Of which is as
yet undetermined and is mat.
ter for argument. The dog is
white, but A. O'Kelliher insists
that the breed which the dogs
printed pedigree calls for is a
liver hue. Anyway, A. E. finally
induces the baggageman to take
the canine aboard, but cautioned
him to treat him kindly and talk
to him gently, as be was subject
to fits of temper in which he
recognized neither friends or
companions and was liable to do
the trainman grevious bodily
harm. The dog will guard the
camp of the handcar.. club until
the next meeting, in 1908.

Doussaint was, at his own re-
quest, blindfolded. He asked if
there was not a high sandy ridge
beyond the swamp, and being
answered in the affirmative, said
that the child s clothes would be
found on that ridge; not today,
or tomorrow, but some day with
in the next week; that the body
would not be found then; that
the clothes would be found by a
dark complicated man-and Dous.

in getting~a trail. .

John Shepherd, the father OF
the boy, is firm in his belief that
the child has been taken away by
some interested parties and will
be heard from (alive and welD in
the near future.
The people of Solway have
about given up all hopes of ever
recovering the body of the little
one and ascertaining IN what
matter he disappeared.
However, they have decided to
make one more concerted effort,
on Sunday, when search will be
commenced at 8 a. m. and cor.
tinued all day. They have issued
a call to all residents of towns IN
this vicinity to join in the search.
AS a reward of 500 has been
offered for the child, dead or
alive, there should be liberal re-
sponses to the call.
