without the aid of this fertilizer. 1t

Girl Who Robs Mrs.
Armour Must Return
Money or Go to Jail
Dream She Sees $4,000 Worth Of
Bonds Hidden in Dog Kennel
Comes True.

KANSAS CITY, April SO-Following the
announcement today that unless the young
woman who recently stole $4,000 worth Of
securities from Mrs. S. B. Armour made
good an existing shortage of $4,000 her ar
rest would follow, Attorney Joseph G.
Stacey. representing the accused girl, be-
gan a vigorous search for enough money
to square the account. He has found his
clients affairs to be badly muddled. he
says. He is hopeful. however, that no
legal steps will be necessary.
Attorney Stacey is emphatic in the as
sertion that his client is not DESTROYS OF
retaining any of the filched stocks or
bonds. Stacey says his client does not
know positively now that she ever took
any Of Mrs. Armour's property. The young
woman. he says, is suffering from an ex-
IRENE case of lack OF memory.
She told me-" said Mr. Stacey. that
one night she dreamed that she saw $32,
900 worth OF bonds hidden in a dog kennel
near the Armour home. So greatly was
she exercised by this dream that she arose
in her night clothes and, without waiting
to Dress went to the kennel The bonds
were there, just as she had dreamed they
were. She does not remember having taken
them from the safety deposit vault"
Shortly after the thefts were discovered
the young woman told attorneys for Mrs
Armour that there was a bundle OF bonds
in the kennel. They were found there and
restored to their owner.
