LARGE GIFTS OF MONEY
IN ANONYMOUS LETTERS

DEs MONIES. May 2s.-The town OF
Panora Iowa, is destined TO become
one of the most popular places in the
United states II the epidemic of mys-
terious letters containing money for
residents Of the little city continues
Within the last few months three per-
sons In Panora have received anony-
nous letters containing an aggregate Of
$1,000 and In every case the sender
Of the money IS unknown Neither does
any Of the three fortunate recipients
know to what they are indebted for the
windfall.
DR. Amelia Pigner IS the latest bene-
nciary. Last week a bank draft for
5000 came TO her in a plain envelope
postmarked Des Moines There was
no writing inside TO indicate who the
sender might be or for what purpose
it was sent DR. Pigner is as much
puzzled over the affair as the other
two
Joseph Roberts retired farmer, was
the first to benefit from the mysterious
distribution Of cash. He received a let
ter from the state Of Oregon containing
$3.50 i'm greenbacks unaccompanied by
a single scrap OF writing TO identify H.
This was about two months ago. but
AIr. Roberts knows no more about where
the money came from now than he did
then
The second gift was sent from Des
Moines. One day Mrs Viola Lapegitt
widow. received a letter which she
opened and was astounded 10 find Il
contained 1925 in bills wrapped in a
piece of white paper. on the paper
was written the two words, your
friend
The lucky widow says she has never
seen the handwriting before or since
but she is willing to believe the writer
a friend"
Not one OF the three persons SO
strangely enriched has been able TO ad-
vance a theory FOR the good fortune.
" II is conscience money they can
not understand the cause OF such trou-
bled consciences. They also point out
that If the letters were prompted by
desire TO make restitution the sender
would have taken more pains to make
his identity known. II is generally be-
leved that all. three letters were sent
+ by the same person.
The postofiice inspectors I'm Des
Moines have been notified OF the strange
affair. but are making no effort &c
unravel the mystery. They say II Is M
crime to send anonymous letters con-
tanning money through the mails. anC
they win not make an investigation
until the statutes of the United States
are violated.
