he could put Callahan away in any kind

WIFE DISAPPEARS;
| FOOTPRINTS BY RIVER

.Morganton, March 5.--The nlysterl~
Gus disappearance from her nome
here of Mrs ]. j. Anderson has stirred
Morganton very greatly today ana
searching parties have been gong In
all directions all day for trace OF her.
The finding of tracks of a womans
shoe at what is known as the lower
bridge, led to the dragging OF the riv-
err at that point. This afternoon ths
use of dynamite in the river was re-
sorted to in the hope of recovering
the BODY in case 1t should be IN the
water.
The tracks compared in sized to the
shoes Mrs. Anderson Is known to have
worn and the searchers who reached
the river first traced these tracks TO
the rivers edge and for hundreds or
yards along the river could find no
returning tracks. The fact led to the
theory that the unfortunate woman
had drowned herself.
Her husband, J. l.. Anderson, who
is a prominent citizen OF Morganton.
missed his wife early this morning
and at once instituted search. She
has been In very poor health for some
time and dependency because of this
is thought to have been the cause OF
her rash act. Up to late hour to-
night no trace further than the tracks
on the river bank have been found OF
the missing woman.

follows:
Whereas, farm laborers have been
taken away from the rural districts

''Secondly-That this body ia con-
WINGED that unless this Ia accom- plish-
ed that 1t will be utterly impossible
for Virginia to produce even a nor

further recommends that all Iahorers
