AUSTIN LADY
LOST AND FOUND
Mrs. Mary DeIO Temporarily Loses
Her Mind and Wdnders Away.
Returns as MysteriousIy.

The people of Austin and those living
in the Immediate vicinity were thrown
into state of excitement last Monday
by the announcement that Mrs. Mary
Delo had disappeared during the pre-
vious night. The lady had been seri'
ously sick and under the care of ply.
sician and trained nurse. She had dis.
missed the nurse without consulting
the physician and had acted in strange
manner. 1t was known that she had
been very Respondent and the announce
ment of her disappearance led to much
speculation as to the cause, many ex-
pressing the belief that she had become
temporarily insane and taken her own
life.
A searching party was organized and
carefully scured the country all day
Monday, but the missing lady could
not be found. 1t was decided to blow
up the river at point near the railroad
bridge on Tuesday and preparations
were made to carry out this plan, as it
was believed that the body of the miss.
ing woman would be found in the river.
On going to his room in the upstairs
of their home about 10 O'Clock Monday
night Mrs. Delo's son found his mother
in his bed. She disclaimed all know
ledge of having been away from the
premises or of any search being made
for her. Her clothing was wet, how
ever. and she bore every evidence of
having been out in the heavy rain Of
Monday afternoon. The family physi-
clan was called, who in turn reinstated
the nurse and the afflicted lady is being
given every attention and care.
Her friends hope she will fully re-
cover in time, but they realize that her
present condition is critical.

excellent character. He graduated
from the Kansas City Veterinary Col
lege early this spring and Immediately

structing a new residence at the present
time. His professional future is un-
doubtedly bright and as citizen he
stands high in the estimation of our

Delta To Have Juvenile Band.

MIR. Ashley Forrest has announced
his purpose to organize a juvenile band,
taking boys from ten to sixteen years
of age. Such a plan will undoubtedly
prove popular with the youngsters and
also with the public. A Juvenile band
always attracts wide attention and deep
local interest and we trust Mr.. Forrest
will receive proper encouragement in
his efforts. All such things add to the
life and progress Of u community.
