FUGITIVE FROM CLEVELAND,
Thirteen-year- John Ochvat, Tired of Buckeye State, Slips Out ard Comes to Putnam.

John Ochvat, age F. is in town. In fact, John has been in town for the past two weeks without materially throwing the regular routine of things here out of adjustment But things have been different hack home where John came from. For in stance, his mother has been weeping and his father has been Wondering just what had become of his off spring and, incidentally, $2S in coin of the realm that he. the father, had safely slowed away in the family stocking. This Is back in Cleveland. O.. where John D. Rockefeller spends some of the small change he makes out of the oil business.
 John Ochvat didn't see much com .ng to him though through the resi- dence in his home toWn of the other John, so he got peeved about the mat ter and beat it out, leaving old Clave- land to the oil king to do with it as he saw fit.
 There used to be a boarder-Andrew R. Zepa-in the OchVat home out in Cleveland and he also got tired of the town and came eaSt-tO Putnam. Af- ter time Zepa began to write let ters back home to Johns fatlier and the youngster, knowing of this. de- cided that Putnam would be a good place to go out and do as John D. has been reported to have done-make money.

He has been as gay and care free as the larks. and when shy of the little silver coins that been at all bashfui about going out and asking whomsoever he met to contribute to his needs. thus showing some of the distinguished John D's business acumen.
 But things took bad turn for John Labor day. Captain Ryan got a mes sage from the probation officer at Cleveland asking him to look John up. The captain did. The result of the interview will be more clearly de-
 fined after further exchange of tele- grams with Cleveland.
 Monday night the prospects were ex- ceedingly. strong that John Is due for standing the fact that he hasn't held out the price of a return ticket.
 But that isn't worrying John either. There's a railroad to Cleveland. isn't there? And trains run over it. And
 
 Sure, John thinks. if they want me back in Cleveland. let them go to 1t. The riding's fine!
