meantime struck up friendship with Mr.
Johnston and his family. which consisted
Of a wife and one daughter, Miss Bertha
Later, Mr.. Cleaver secured position with
a chemical company in one Of the southern
steates and left Washington II was an
nounced about that time that the young
people were engaged. but the statement
was denied by the family Of the young
woman. short time ago, Mr.. Cleaver
resigned his pioce with the chemical COM
pany and returned to his home in Council
Bluffs but last Sunday he arrived In
Washington on visit and at once renewed
his acquaintance with the attractive Miss
Bertha.
The day before yesterday they met and
took car ride to Rockville, which is
about five or six miles from the capital.
Yesterday Mrs. Johnston received tele-
