dence in her son that she did not re-
port the case to the police until yes
terday. Then the strain became too
great, and she consented to appeal to
them. The police net was spread as
far west as ST. Louis last night, and
several hundred miles in all directions
around Washington. But Mrs. Malone
does not believe that her son could
have had time to reach ST. Louis, beat
ing his way.
She has left no stone unturned to get
information. She has been among the
trainmen at the railroad yards. and
there was informed that in the middle
west free rides on freiShts are uncer.
tain. Information left gerly behind
by the boy was that he would stop at
Richmond. Norfolk and Portsmouth en-
route. There was even the suggestion
that he might go to the boom town
in Virginia, Vet unnamed. but Whlch
is the site of large powder factories
recently tablished. Credence is given
to this. for he went to look for better
work than he had.
When he left home in the driving
rainstorm Louis had on a blue suit
with tinge of red in it. a pink shirt.
a green felt hat. red and green tie
and gray cloth-top shoes. He is de-
scribed as being tall and slender, of
fair complexion, with light hair and
blue eyes.
If this young man returns now he
will find only forgiveness. but delay
will bring nothing for a. greeting but
a broken heart.
