FEAR GIRL WAS KIDNAPPED.
Miss in Custody of Court Mysteriously
Disappears.

MISS IN custody OF Court MySteriously
Disappears.
Des Moines, Jan. 5.-Mystery sur
rounds the disappearance yesterday of
lola Tutwlller, a 17-year- od girl, from
the Polk county farm where she was
placed by the Juvenile court under the
guardianship of Mrs. Mary Miller, an
aunt of the girl who Is employed at
the farm. Police and county authorities
are looking for her and 1t is feared that
the second attempt to kidnap the girl
from Mrs. Miller has been successful.
According to Probation Officer
Charles Young, who is working on the
case, the life of the girl, who is under
the protection of the court, has been
full of some of the bitterts experiences
that ever were recorded in the annals
of the court. 1t is stated that from the
age of 4 years nameless indignities
were practiced upon her. These con-
tinued till she was IL years old when
the matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the juvenile court by neighbors
who lived near the Tutwiller home on
East Twenty ninth street.
About two weeks ago, Mrs. Tutwiller
appeared at the office of Probation Of
ficer Young with the request that she
be given permission to visit her daugh-
ter at the county farm. The permission
was granted and a few days after, Mrs.
Tutwiller again appeared at the county
farm. Monday, without warning, lola
disappeared and in spite of the efforts
put forth by the police and county Of
ticres she has not been found 1t is
feared by the officers of the juvenile
court that the girl has been kidnapped
altho they are not willing to fasten the
blame on any one person.

Chicago, Jan. 5.-The Rev. Edwin A.
Schell, president of Iowa Wesleyan
University, has made a final refusal to
reveal the confession of Ray Lam
phere, holding the trust reposed in him
as a Methodist clergyman to be invio-
liable. He is unmoved by nation wide
desire to know the secrets of the Gun
ness murder farm and to be certain
of the fate of Mrs. Belle Guinness, who,
it is believed, lured more than a score
of victims to her death trap at La
Porte, Ind.
Before he reached his conclusion Dr.
Schell consulted with three ministers
and a bishop of his church, and with
Judge w. S. Withrow of the Third jul
dicial district of Iowa, it was stated
yesterday. DR.. Schell admitted that
Lamphere had made statement to
him while confined in the Jail at La
porte awaiting trial which shed light
upon the mysteries of the murder farm
and on the fate of Mrs. Guinness. He

county attorney of Laporte, he said.
Would Spare Lamphere's Sisters.
The college president gave as a Sec
ond reason for refusing to divulge the
confession, that it might bring sorrow
to the two sisters of Lamphere who
live at Laporte.
To the question "Have the brother
and sister of Jennie Olson a right to
know whether the penalty has been
paid for the murder, have the sons of
Ole Budzberg right to know whether
the woman who killed their father is
still at large?" DR.. Schell replied:
Il did not know there was any doubt
that it was Mrs. Guinness who persisted
in the fire which burned her residence
at Laporte. l thought that was settled
when Lamphere said publicly after his
conviction he was certain the body
found in the ruins was hers"
He continued
1T is the minister's duty to hear the
confession and to plead with the GRIM
inal to make restitution, or to urge him
to make his statement to the courts

Perhaps she feels more like pitching in

But that's no reason why she should
boil her clothes and wash them in hot water.
No reason why she should fill her house

catching bad cold
No reason for reddening hands and
face by hot water and steam
No reason for breaking her back over

No indeed. Washing with Fels-Naptha
