MONEYLESS WOMAN SPENT THOUSANDS

Kansas City, April PA woman OF
refined appearance, apparently about
20 years of age, who gave her name
as Mrs. Mary Louise Henry of Los
Angeles, but who also went under
several other names, was held by the
police yesterday, but today was re-
leased because the prosecutors of
flee was unable to find that she had
done anything criminal.
Mrs. Henry's case is peculiar. She
came here over a month ago and
opened negotiations with local bank
ers to buy securities to the amount OF
close TO $25O.OO0 and dealt with
others for valuable realty and furni-
ture.
No Money Put Up.
None of the deals was closed, for
after working them up Mrs. Henry
invariably told those with whom she
was dealing that her money had not
yet arrived. She bargained for a
$4,000 house and gave It to newly
found friends, because they had been
kind to her" as she said. She also
purchased furniture for the house,
and on Saturday last, when 1t did
not arrive, went down town to ascer-
tain the cause. She did not return,
and yesterday the police took her in

her.

Today, after questioning the wo-
man, Jay M. Lee. the assistant pros
ecutor, said:
"She has defrauded no one and has
not benefit herself penny in her
transactions. Efforts were made to
learn from Mrs. Henry names and ad-
dresses of some of her relatives and
friends. She declared George Ar
mold, her cousin, is in New York, with
about 100000 OF her money"

NO MORE JAPS EMPLOYED.
Marion County Berry Growers Il
Employ White People.

White women and children are to
be given work picking loganberries
the ensuing summer in preference to
japanese by A, NJ. Aspinwall, an ex-
tensive grower of these berries, at
Brooks, Marion county, says the Sa-
lem Statesman.
Mr.. Aspinwall has written to G. w.
Parsons, president of the Federated
Trades Council at Portland, asking
him to use his influence in procuring
help in Portland, and Mr.. Parsons
will do what he can in the matter,
although the work being peculiarly
adapted for women and children
does not come under the head of oc-
cupations covered by organized labor.
Mr.. Aspinwall says in his letter
that he has been approached by per-
sons in the interest of Japanese labor,
offering to engage as many of the
orientals as he desires, but he prefers
giving employment to people of his
own race, If they can be procured.
The berries will be ripe enough to
pick about June Is, and the picking
will furnish work to 1875 persons for
about six weeks. The pickers will
camp out in their own tents, in a
fine oak grove, where they can get
all the wood and water they want for
cooking purposes.
The picking will therefore resem-
BILE an outing in the hopfields, though
much earlier in the season, hops not
being ready to pick until September

LA TOILETTE LEADS IN IDAHO.
Wisconsin Senator Is Favorite for the
Presidency.

Owyhee and Twin Falls are in line
for La Toilette, according to reports
which have been received in Boise
the past few days from both these
sections Of the state by S. e. Annas
assistant secretary Of the La Toilette
club, says the Boise Capital News
The missionary work which has been
done by the boosters Of the Wiscon-
sin senator during the past three
months is having its effect and many
converts have been made for the "fa-
vorite SON."
S. E. Blaine returned recently from
a business trip to Silver City, where
he had occasion to do a little sound
ing along political lines. He was
more than satisfied with what he
learned and succeeded In adding a
few stages to the political fence of
La Toilette.
He states that with but a few ex-
ceptions all the people that he saw
in Silver City believe that La Toilette
is the leading presidential candidate
today and would be solIdly support
ed by all republicans for the nomina-
tion to succeed Roosevelt. Mr.. Blaine

Oregon will make a collective ex-

attle in 1909. This will be the first
time an exhibit of this kind has ever
been given in this state.

of the commissioners this is the best
way to exhibit the resources of the
state.
Every portion of the state will be
represented, and it is the desire of
the commission to cooperate with
those who wish to assist in bringing
together a representative exhibit OF
the states resources.

ATWOOD PROPERTY
HAS The GOODS
BEAUTIFUL SAMPLES FROM THE
GOLD CROWN BROUGHT TO
TONOPAH.

The Atwood district will in all
probability furnish the next sensa-
ton in mining circles. The men who
have stood faithfully by the camp
are on the eve of receiving their re-
ward. Work is being prosecuted on
every property in the camp and
leasers are getting good returns.
Frank Everett, of the Gold Crown
Mining company, arrived in this city
yesterday, bringing several chunks
of ore from vein from twelve to
twenty-four inches wide on that prop
erty. The find was made at depth
of 140 feet and they are drifting,
sinking and raising to determine the
extent of the ledge. Water has been
encountered on the lower levels bit
the installation of a large Cameccn
pump with capacity of 100 gallons
per minute will unwater the m .e
in from seven to ten days. The ore
in the vein encountered will run from
$275 to $500 and is composed of
values in gold, silver and copper, the
ratio being one-third gold. The ore
is of the same character as that found
in the Tonopah mines as is the geo.
logical formation of the country. The
property has gasoline hoist and a
force Of twelve men is at work in the
mine.
The Butler mine, in the same Vi
cinity, has magnificent showing.
They are employing six men and arc
hosting ore to the surface, putting
it in canvas sacks and haye big
amount for shipment.

JURY'S VERDICT
FOR BLOOMGREN
MAN WHO ABSTRACTED MONEY
FROM ENVELOPES FOUND
NOT GUILTY.

The case of Ole Bloomgren, charg-
ed with petit larceny, was heard yes
terday in Judge Brissell's court, AMI
the jury after being out but five min
utes returned verdict of not guilty.
Bloomgren was charged with opening
a sealed envelope containg $15,
which he distracted for his own use
and admitted the same when und ar
oath on the stand and in the face IF
his own admission the jury acquitted
him.
Miss Dotty Bartlett of Round
Mountain testified to giving Bloom
gren letter containing SIS in cash
to take in his motor car from Round
Mountain to Tonopah and deliver 10
McCarty. Bloomgren admitted tax
ing the money and spending it, 1ut
said that it was not in a letter, that
he had told McCarty what he hal
done and the latter said it would be
all right if he made it good.
Upon the defendant leaving town
for Utah McCarty got a warrant nut
for his arrest and he was nabbed at
Hazen. Evidence showed that
Bloomgren left because of sickness
in his Utah home. He said McCarty
owed him $40. statement that Nc
Carly denied.
The following were the jury:
Thos. H. Teal. r. S. Gordon, Frank
Hackley, A. w. Briggs, Frank Smith

OUT
FOR Commissioner
FRIENDS PREVAIL UPON LEAD.
ING MERCHANT TO MAKE
THE RACE.

j. A. Falkenstein, of the firm Of
Falkenstein and Trabert of this city,
has been prevailed upon by many If
the leading citizens to become a
candidate for the Office of county
commissioner. No more fitting Sc
lection could be made by the Repubii-
cans and his nomination is certainly
equivalent to an election. The mar.
who can successfully conduct his
own business can generally be relied
upon to look after the peoples bust
ness satisfactorily. No man stands
higher in the commercial life of Ne
vada than Mr.. Falkenstein. He ha.
been resident of Nye county :or
eight years, knows every section of
it and is known by all its residen 5.
For five years he was fiscal agent for
the Nevada company at Berlin and
the Austin Mining company at Aus
tin. He has been a mining operator
in the Smoky and Reese river val
leys. For the past three years he has
been in the mercantile business ~
this city. The Republican count,
convention will be comforting al
honor upon itself by selecting Mr.
Falkenstein as one of its stand lrd
bearers in the coming election.
