Use DYNAMINE

Phipps To Give Up
$4,000

DENVER, Colo. Nov. .. -- After
haunting the residence of her intend
ed victim for two days and making
efforts to get into communication
with her. an unknown woman who
threatened Mrs. Genevieve Chandler
Phipps. divorced wife of Lawrence
Phipps, the Pittsburg millionaire,
with death unless she was given s2O,-
900 In money. was foiled in her de-
signs by the clever work of bank and
city detectives.
When she discovered that she was
beaten, the woman cast dynamite
sticks intended for Mrs. Phipps at
the detectives, but fortunately they
fell against the upholstered side of
an automobile. which prevented them
from exploding. The woman was
quickly placed arrest and efforts are
being made to find some clew to her
identity. She persistently refuses 10
give her name, but insists that she
is under the influence OF a hypnotist,
and that this explains her attempt
at Matchmaking Mrs. Phipps.
The woman had been watching
Mrs. Phipps. and when she went au-
tomobiling in City Park the mystic
rious stranger took her position be-
hind tree. As the machine passed
the tree the woman ran and jumped
into II. ...
She quickly engaged Mrs. phipps
in conversation. assuring her that
her apparent fears were entirely un-
necessary: that she was magazine
writer and had no desire 10 do in
jury to Mrs. Phipps. She talked so
kindly that Mrs. Phipps became reas-
sured and they rode together for If
teen or twenty minutes.
Suddenly the woman produced two
sticks of dynamite and commanded
that Mrs. Phipps give her 100000
within an hour or she would be de-
stroyed. She directed that the auto
mobile be driven to the Wblcott
School and Mrs. Phipps' daughter be
taken along, evidently for the pur-,
pose of having hostage. Mrs.
Phipps agreed to go to her bank and
get the money, whence the party
headed after stopping at the school
to get the little daughter of Mrs
Phipps. Arriving at the bank, all
but the strange Woman left the ma
chine, but she made no protest.
Once inside the building Mrs.
Phipps hurriedly related her expert
ence to bank official and police
headquarters was communicated
with. Two detectives hastened to
the bank. In the meantime. special
bank detective had engaged the wo-
man in conversation from the win
dow of the enclosed machine next to
the sidewalk. The two city detect
ives quietly walked around the rear
of the machine and slipped open the
door on the street side. The woman
saw tudt Slt was thiihppSu anu uaoh

ficers. They struck against the ma
chine and fell to the floor intact.
The police have Investigated every
source of information at hand In an
effort to ascertain the identity of the
mysterious woman. Tonight they

initials. "F. c. r." The woman her
self refuses to give her name. She
does say, however, that she had re-
Gently undergone a siege OF brain fe-
yer, and her appearance would bear
out this claim. Her hair is prema-
turely gray In spots, and her thin
face and body might easily have been
rendered so by fever. Her memory
appears to be clouded, and when
asked as to the place whence she
came to Denver, she replied that she
thought II was Boston. She was sure
that she had been in New York in
recent months. The woman has ev-
cry appearance Of refinement, and
her clothing is of rich material. The
toilet set found in her room is silver
mounted and of costly design.
