d. B. Wilson, who is in the city tenn
porarily as the representative. of the
General Electric company of New
Y ork city, met one of Topeka's charm
ing young ladies some days ago and
Sunday the two sought the country
for horseback ride. Time must have
passed pleasantly and nothing of an
embarrassing nature occurred until
the New York gentleman attempted
to settle with the liveryman for the
steeds. Then trouble picked up for
him and to his great embarrassment
he discovered that he had but twenty
cents, two thin dimes to his name. He
had not intended to beat anyone. but
the roadside and worst of all it con-
tanned three yellow back ten dollar
bills, all of his available cash, barring
the two slick dimes. He explained
and rushed to the newspapers and
spent his dimes for lost advertise
mentS and then waited. Future de-
velopments proved that the advertise
ments were worthless for before the
papers were issued County Clerk Zim-
norman, who had found the lost
pocketbook, had located the owner.
The money has been returned and the
New Yorker is in no immediate need
of funds and the denouement of his
acquaintanceship in Topeka is yet to
be made public:
