ped up and told Miss Horton she
must go 10 the store office. The young
lady vas dumbfounded and could not

The officer, it developed, thought
that she was a colleague of the woman
who he knew had stolen the goods
and he took her in charge until an
Investigation was made. When Miss
Horton told her story she was de-
tanned no longer, the officers making
an apology for their actions. The
real sh1plifter had made good her
escape and was beyond the reach OF
the detectives when il was earned
that Miss Horton was not implicated

her 10 the home Of her friends.
Miss Horton brought home with her

stating that her detention by the de-

Miss Horton makes her home with her
mother and sister, is employed here

States Attorney Floyd L. Thompson,
the charges against them were dismiss

the seriousness Of the offense, for
which the penalty is a $500 fine to-
gether with one years Imprisonment,
and warned them against a repetition
of their depredations.
The other two lads are believed to be
