RUNAWAY BRIDE DOUBTS DEATH
 OF HUSBAND

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 10.- Despite the fact that Mrs. Richard B. Runyon, pretty 17-year-old bride and erstwhile high school student, has received a suicide note from her husband and that nothing has been heard of him since his sudden de- parture from his home here more than a month ago, she vehemently insists that her "Dickie Boy' is still alive. Her missing 20-year-old hus- hand was a former student at Beloit College, Beloit, Wis. The youthful wife halls from Sunny Tennessee. In a two-page farewell letter, which Mrs. Runyon received from her hus- band shortly after his disappearance, he wrote: q have perpetually de- ceived you since our marriage. l have been gambling, and I have lost all my money-and my overcoat and hat to boot And to think l was eau euou5H to lSll Sou h''o oSNii winning!" the girl bride quoted her husband as saying.
 Made Death Threat Continuing, she said, the letter read: q am tired of it all and l am going to tie a weight around my body and jump into the river. By the time you get this I will be dead. Good bye:
 "'Your Worthless Husband"
 This letter, which blasted the short romance of the youthful couple, was postmarked Kansas City" and was received at the home of one of Run- yons friends, where the pair had rented rooms. Runyon eloped with his sweetheart from her home at Nashville, Tennessee, to Henderson, Kentucky From there they came to this city, where the young bride groom secured a position. He re- signed this however, after short time.
 "'Dickie Boy was always so good to me- Mrs. Runyon explained to inquiries between sobs. ''He treated me wonderfully kind. He told me 1 before our marriage that he had had a nervous breakdown while attending college two years ago. l feel posi- tive that he has suffered a relapse due to his former illness and has wandered off in a mental aberra- ton.
 Believes He Lives
 q know that my husband is not dead He will return to me as soon as his mental fog clears
 The child wife has abandoned her search for "Dickie Boy for the pres 1 ent and has announced her intention of returning "home to mother in the near fut''re. Her father, E. c. Wright, is a well-known merchant at Nashville and is said to be rich. The daughters elopement had been forgiven, and the new son-in-law had been graciously accepted as mem Der of the family, according to Mrs. Wright, who rushed here to assist her when she learned of Runyon's disappearance.
 Felt Incompetence Runyon is understood to have felt keenly his inability to provide his wife with a home which would equal in comfort the one she had fled.
 Neither the Missouri nor the "Kaw' river has been dragged for the miss ing body, and it is pointed out that the wife and her family place slight credence in the husbands suicide threat. On the other hand, it is believed they are of the opinion that the youth had merely shouldered too much responsibility and after the realization struck him had decided to bury his identity for a time. Police stated they would continue 1 the search with unabated vigor. l

 Sunday Leonard Brenewick had an accident that could easily have been fatal. Leonard, like most country and Alaska children has been raised around horses, and in consequence thought all horses would act the same as the stock that is used by his father. So when Leonard was in Lenien's stable Sunday he started pet. ting the horses and in passing behind a horse was kicked in the face. One of the corks entered the right cheek passing through the flesh and knocked a tooth out. The blow was very SC, were and if it had been struck two inches higher it would have proved fatal. Dr. Mohr, who is in attendance states the patient doing as well as can be expected.

In the career of Calvin Coolidge are
three outstanding characteristics
thrift, silence and shrewd political
sense. 1t is natural in New Eng
land town. where thrift is an unques-
toned virtue, that the fact that the
President of the United States pays
s32 month for his home-his land
lord raised him S. when he became
Vice President-would not seem re-
markable, nor would any other evil
dences of personal economy.
But Northampton people resent the
suggestion that he is stingy. James
Lucey tells this story to confound the
imputation:
Gal has never been a free spendin
man." the old shoemaker says, but
he's the most generous man for a
thrifty man 1 ever knew. He's thrifty
meanin' that he pays well for what's
good andsnothin' for what's bad. But
