their mother was at home Monday
night at 10 o'clock, when they re-
tired. She had eaten her supper and
was apparently in normal condition
mentally. Mrs. Sandy had not been

A peculiar circumstance connect
ed with her disappearance is that
two dresses disappeared with her.
One a brown and the other a black,

lieved that she wore both dresses, but
has not the slightest idea which one
she is wearing on the outside.
Mrs. Sandy Is AZ years old, small
In stature, dark brown eyes and hair,
and of a nervous temperament. Chief
of Police McMillin this morning had
cards giving a description of her sent
to various parts OF the southwest

Mr.. Sandy said that he had faint
hopes that his wife had gone to some
private house in the city and engaged
as a domestic. II such should be the
case she would sooner or later be re-
turned to him safely. Mr.. and Mrs.
Sandy have been married twenty
years.
