walk in life. but particularly IN crime.
At least FIVE doubles OF Mrs Guinness
have been discovered and followed
with suspicion.
Leon Ling. the murderer OF Elsie
Siegel, has had so many doubles that
il is hard TO number them all. partly
for the reason that all Chinese look
alike 10 the Occidental police. Dorothy
Arnold, the female Charley Ross. has
turned up simultaneously in different

on May Ga woman believed to be Mrs.
Guinness was arrested on a New York
Central train. She was identified by
a man who Said that he had known
her for years. He came on with her
in the same train from the West and
alighted at Rochester, where he mott
fed the police They telegraphed TO
Syracuse. and the arrest was made.
The woman and her companion were
roughly awakened by the police and
told to dress and accompany them.
When they demurred they were told
that # they did not hurry they would
be taken as they were. They proved
to be Mrs. Cora Belle Heron, sister
Of Mrs. Charles F. Rockefeller, and her
mother, Mrs. Lucy Burton.
THE MYSTERIOUS WOMAN LIVES
UP TO HER ROLE.
Three weeks later word was received
that Mrs Guinness could be found at
No. 323 18th street, Brooklyn. Lodgers
said that a mysterious woman had
taken a room at that address, that she
was stout and had gold in her teeth;
that she gave her name as Mrs. lie
Garde. and later as Mrs. Ames. When
the police reached the scene the rnys-
FERROUS woman had disappeared and
the utmost effort failed to locate her.
Three weeks later the Governor Of
Chlapas, Mexico telcgraphed to the
American Embassy at Mexico City
asking if he should arrest as Mrs.
Guinness an old and stout woman
dressed in mans clothing who had
made inquiries concerning the country
and had plunged into the interior with
out regard to the dangers Of which she
had been warned.
Arrest was again urged in Grand
Rapids. Mich. on March Q, 1910 Louis
Richmond, who had formerly known
Mrs. Guinness, claimed that ne had dis
covered her.
She was believed TO have been dis
covered shortly before in Minnesota,
when a farmer named Kirby thought
that he had identified her in the per
son Of his brothers housekeeper The
Kirby farm was closely watched, and
indianapolis newspapers even tele-
graphcd offers 10 finance her case If
she would confess that she had been
connected with the Guinness farm. The
inducement was I'm vain. however, for
the woman was not the right one.
