STRANGE WOMEN
HAVE LEFT HERE
Dropped Into Town and Made Many
Acquaintance and Left as
Mysteriously as They
Came; Many Wonder

The equanimity of this prosaic
little city was rudely disturbed
this week by two swashbuckling
womenfolk who gave the names,
Mrs. l.. Connolly and Miss B. Con-
molly. They came from seeming
nowhere and have gone thence
with never a word of their inten-
tions, honorable or otherwise. Dur
ing their sojourn of eight days in
this community, Mrs. Connolly man.
aged to trip and fall down a stair
way in local hotel, and the two
ate literally from the stock of
viands in local cafe. When they
made their getaway yesterday they
forgot to pay their bills for their
found and the county officers are
engaged today in a still hunt for
the pair. Representing themselves
as mother and daughter they proved
up as two of two things-frauds
or unfortunates with the odds in
favor of the fraud category.
The older woman called on var
ious business men of this city fol-
lowing her fall down a stairway
and sought sympathy on account
of her injury. To several she told
narrowing tale of being bound from
Cofax, Calf, where she buried a
relative, with Elko as home town
destination and that the two women
had lost their tickets and suffered
ejectment from the passenger coach
in which they were travelling.
Asked whom she knew in Elko,
she replied, everybody" and in
terrogated further for specific
names, could recall none.
The strange phase surrounding
the two has to do with the fact
that although they approached
many people with conflicting hard
luck stories, they sought to victim
ize none safe the cafe proprietor
and the inn keeper. In the mean
time warrants are out for their
arrest on the score of beating board
bills.

Priest Radio Fan

PrIest Radio Fan
Father Husgo Meisekothen has
had a radio set installed at the
Catholic parsonage in this city and
takes considerable diversion in listen
ing to the talk and music that floats
through the air. He has already
picked up stations from as far
away as Los Angeles and the radius
of his receiving equipment is to be
materially added to by additional
equipment which Father Meiskothen
viii have installed within the
next few weeks.

Looking Over Route

H. F. Holley, state engineer, in
this city for conferences with local
authorities, inspected the projected
Victory highway route running
south of the railroad track, in com
pany with County Surveyor r. K.
Tilden today. He expressed no
opinion as to the probable final de-
cision of the state and federal au-
thorities relative to the Victory
highway route through this city.

Fewer Transients-
Fewer transients are passing
through this city during the last
week, according to local peace Of
fcers, who assert that the migra-
tions of the unemployed are grad
ually lessening. 1t has been four
days according to Under Sheriff C.
w. Muller, since any one appeared
at the county Jail in quest for
Red Cross meal ticket. Seem
ingly, mounting demand for labor
is operating to restrict the freight
train travel to those who are "See-
ing America first" by inviting
themselves to ride free over the

FREIGHT SHIPMENTS
INCREASE RAPIDLY

Inquiry at local railroad freight
depots brings the knowledge that
incoming and outgoing freight ship
ments are more general and in
larger volume than for long time.
Local freight is reaching the trades
men of this city and others through
out the county in almost normal
volume and a fairly accurate in
dication of prosperity's return is
thus available.
