WOMAN SEARCHES
RUINS OF BUILDING
FOR FORTUNE-S2OO

Mrs. j, p. Ramsey. who lost 5000
when the walls of the building at
Whitehall and Trinity avenue collapsed
on Wednesday, stood today by the spot
where she believed the money to be
buried and urged the worl1men taking
away the debris to greater speed. be-
lieving each shovelful of dirt and crum-
bled cement might uncover her little
fortune-all the money she possessed in
the world.
Even the clothes have on are Dor
rowed," she said today and this 5000
means much to me. l am willing to
give the man who unearths 1t a re-
ward"
Mrs. Ramsey may have to wait
week before workers even strike the
place where she thinks her money is
buried. as the inspectors have torn
down a portion of another wall at the
spot and the debris is some ten feet
deep at that point.

as quick tempered as could be. He
would fly off at the slightest provoca o.

any man l ever knew.
But when it comes to standing by
my mother in this, that's another thing.

for him altogether"

mother mad he'd considerable money
when she first met Appelbaum. He
said he did not know how much. but
he said time and time again she had
provided him with money to go to

near as much money now as she had
when she married Appelbaum. l doubt
If she has got any Appelbaum went

said his mother had requested that two

which Jerry Appelbaum lost his life.
Mrs. Appelbaum today arose, appar-

This witness proves that mother ran

Henderson declared today that he
would stay right in Atlanta until his

Strange Trunks Found.
An important development was I'M

detectives found in the warehouse of
the Morrow Storage Company, I'm Ma

large wooden boxes all consigned 10 the
storage house in the name OF u. A.
Appelbaum."
What these boxes contain is as vet
conjecture. Why Appelbaum a sup

himself with such an accumulation of
baggage puzzles the police
The Atlanta authorities today began
an investigation into Appellants fam
lily record and If they fail to locate the
dead mans people they will break open
these trunks and boxes and through
them attempt to trace the mans con-
nections. 1t is limited that valuable
clews as to Appellants former heart
affairs may be forthcoming when the
storage goods are searched.
1t was also learned by the detectives
that Appelbaum, Just before he met his
sudden death, shipped three large
wooden boxes from the storage house
to an outside point. just where is not
known. What these cases contained
has not been revealed.

Keep Girls from
Dances.

0. ]. Bell, the new Probate
Judge of Bannock County pro.
poses to take advantage of the
state law prohibiting the eercour.
agement Of delinquency of minors
by ordering that no girls under
eighteen years of age shall attend
public dances unless chaperoned
He says he intends to enforce
this rigidly and has instructed
probation officers of the county
to enforce the law against both
the girls who break the law. and
also the managers of the hall
where delinquencies occur. He
states that the downfall ofmany
girls is the natural outcome OF
the practice ofyoung girls going
10 the dances unaccompanied by
their parents,
We wish to commend the act
ion taken by this worthy Judge.
He should have the hearty CO op-
Grafton of every public official
and of every parent in the coun-
ty.
We think such an order would
be an excellent thing for Oakley
and the county generally. We
know that the public dance is
very often source OF evil to the
young girls and boys. The free
dom and pernitious associations
OF the average dance have injuri-
Gus effects upon the immature
character of the boys and girls.
Let the parents or some suitable
chaperon accompany every young
lady, and we believe that the
dance can be made a proper pas
time and social pleasure, as the
evil associations are thereby
eliminated.
We cannot be too careful Of
our boys and girls at their most
critlcalage.
They are never safer than when
under the watchful loving eyes OF
their parents and natural guard
ians.
