were on hand with attachment pap

sheep stepped on their land. so that
they might secure damages for tres

Three theories are advanced to ac-
count for her disappearance-that she
met with oul play-either murder or
kldnapping-that she eloped, or that
fo rsome unknown reason. she made
away with her young life.
AS soon as it was discovered that
the young lady was missing searching

her she was at a dance at Sparks on
last Friday evening while he matrOn
at the university understood her to
say she was going to spend the inter

At the same time the latter thought
she was at the institution.
The idea Of her committing suicide
or being kidnapped is given little
thought, the general belief being thai
she has either met with foul play or
has eloped. The latter theory being

pretty brunette and was very popular
