DISAPPEARS ON EVE
OF HIS WEDDING

Somerviile, Mass, Nov. 2.--The police
OF Boston and other cities have been
asked to look for Horace s. Bickford
managing clerk for prominent law firm
or Somervllle, who disappeared on the
eve of the day set for his wedding. two
weeks ago. and from whom no word has
since been heard nor any trace found. He
was to have been married to Miss Maud
Allen of No. 20 Main street. Norwich,
Conn.
Miss Allen had been visiting Bickford' 8
parents here and left two weeks ago Sat-
urday for her home in Norwich, where
Bickford was to have followed the next
night, with the wedding scheduled for the
day following. He accompanied her to
the railroad station and babe her an af-
fectionate farewell
Miss Allen is loath to believe, she says,
that Bickford is voluntarily absenting'
himself. Nor do his parents think co.
Bickfords business affairs were pros
porous, it is stated The day before his
disappearance he complained of attacks
of dizziness. but he did not consult a
physician.
The theory of his friends is that the
dizzy spells were the forerunner of an
attack of aphasia.

was to make impressions of each side

the two sides. An opening was left

CANADIANS NOT
HAPPY ON PLA AIMS
OF SALISBURY

Salisbury, Eng, Oct. 23.-(Corre-
The members of the Canadian contin-
gent are anything but happy in their
camps on the lonely plains of Sails
bury They find the distances to the
inhabited part of the country as great
as at the Valcartier camp.
The English born members of the
contingent are especially anxious to
visit relatives and friends, but few
of them have yet been granted leave.
The men also have missed the glor-
ious reception promised them on their
arrival here. At Plymouth they were
enthusiastically received, but this was
only a f1eeting view of England, for
on disembarking they were hurried
by night to Salisbury Plains.
Arriving in camp they found the
dry regulation prevailing at Valeartier
was still the rule in the new encamp-
ment.
The feeding of the Canadian army
also proved a prolific source of COM
plant. The soldiers assert that the
stewards on the transports were al
lowed to hoard all the dainties OF
board and sell them at exorbitant
prices. The same complaint is being
made against the mess contractors at
the Salisbury Plains camps.
No huts have yet been prepared for
the Canadians and the small tents in
which from six to eight men are
crowded are not proving weather
proof. The men resent the idea of
spending the winter on the plains and
are clamoring to be taken to the front.
