White Slave
Agent FoiIed
Reynoldsville Girl Exposed A
Dastardly Attempt to Lure
Girls to Fort Wayne.

Chief-of- Police f. p, Adelsperger, of
Reynoldsville, was Instrumental In saw
ing four girls, two from Reynoldsvlle
aud two from Dubois from being lured
to Fort Wayne Indiana. to enter houses
Of prostitution. The latter part Of last
week woman from that city supposed
to have been Myrtle Boring, former
resident Of Dubois, came to Reynolds
Vile to act as a procuress for evil re-
sorts In her city. She was richly dressed
and by promises OF life OF luxury and
Incidence succeeded In getting two
ReynOldsville girls to agree to accom-
pany her back to Fort Wayne. Leav-
ing Reynoldsville the woman went to
Dubois and started her Infamous cam
paign for recruits among her former
friends. Two girls had promised to
leave their homes when the Dubois
Dolice received warning from Chief
Adelsperger to look out for her. They
located the Boring woman promptly
and placed her under surveillance.
When ready to leave, her victims were
prevented from accompanying her.
One Of the girls was placed under ar
rest and after a severe sweating" pro-
cess made complete confession not only
of all that Myrtle Boring had promised
but OF her own life in Dubois revealing
moral conditions In the city said to be
startling In the extreme. Nearly a
score Of young men and women are In
criminated by her tale and there may
be unsavory later developments. The
girl was sent to Clearfeld and placed In
charge of Sheriff Allen, the probability
being that she will eventually be sent
to House OF Refuge.
Chief Adelsperger became aware Of
the neiarious work going on through
the bold action Of one Of Myrtle Boring's
victims In this place. This girl went
to Punxsutawney on the trolley with
Che intention Of joining the procuress
at Dubois and escaping pursuit, but at
Punxsutawney her better nature re-
yolted at the thought OF the shameful
career she was entering upon. She
. made quick resolve to return to her
Reynoldsville home and prevent II pos
.ible the other girls from being led into
the trap. Hunting up Chief Adelsper.
ger she revealed the whole story so far
as she knew 1t. Adelsperger got into
communication with the Dubois police,
with the result that the Fort Wayne
woman was foiled In her plans at both
places. Singularly, though knowing
the enormity Of the woman's crime, the
Dubois police allowed her to leave un-
molested.

Is Announced
Franklin & CIearfie1d To Use
Penns'y and B., R. & P.
Tracks.

The Franklin & Cleatfeld railroad is
going TO use the tracks OF the b., II. &
p. from Reynoldsville to Cleardeld Is
the announcement, coming from an Of
fetal source following an inspection
trip over the G & M. and r. & F. G.
branches made by Lake Shore officials
last Tuesday.
1t was stated to-day that all the pa
pers necessary to give the western
people trackage rights have been signed
and that the agreement becomes effec-
tive on the first day OF next August,
The Lake Shore will use their own
rails to Brookville and the Pennsyl-
vania to keynoldsville. From there
the B.. r. & P. (R. & F. C.) will be
used to Dubois and the G. & M. from
Dubois to Clearfield, where connection
is made with the New York Central.
Preparations are already being made
by the B., II. & p. to begin the work OF
strengthening the line, rebuildieg the
bridges and culverts and replacing the
iron with heavy steel to accommodate
the increased traffic that is coming.
Several months will be needed in which
to do this aud some changes will have
to be made on the Clearfeld branch.
What volume Of traffic will be car
ried over the Franklin e. CearfeId at
first Is matter for conjecture, but 1t Is
reasonable to suppose that 1t will not
be OF large proportions so long as the
single tracks of two other systems are
used-the Low Grade and B., II. & p.

not be done until the gap between
