tempt to get him to interfere and Sc

Mrs MCGUIRE Is a peculiar charac-

lifting seems to be merely an outcrop-
ping OF an abnormal mind. While she
was serving In the Lansing jail after
the shoplifting escapade, she myster-
iously escaped, and Ii was thought
that she had q gang of accomplices.
Since going to the Detroit institution
the instinct has apparently taken q
different turn, and she has feigned
sickness and injury, going about on
.crutches and sometimes refusing te
leave her cell. Physicians have ex
amined her and say that she Is ply
sically in good health.

he had every confidence in Supt. Nc,
Donell. The women offered to give a

this was not acceptable. Finally, they
mentioned the names OF friends In
Milwaukee OF whose integrity Gov
Osborn was satisfied, and ne promised
that when the woman's minimum sen

strictly to understand, however, that
this would be only on condition OF
bonds being given to keep her out OF
