trated Friday on an effort to find

his description tailed in some re-
spects with one of the three men de-
scribed to the Springfield police by
Mrs. Blacklidge before her return
Thursday night to Chicago. She said
she lost paper winnings OF $207 900
as we'll as the $50 900 cash.
One Of the men who said his name

had lent Mrs. Blacklidge the money
to help her obtain $4,000 which. she
claimed was due her from acquain-
tances Of her late husband.

WINDSOR, England, April T.
King George is i'll again, and the
thoughts of England turned with
anxiety today to the teraced park
and great pile of Windsor castle,
where the royal family is in
residence.
1t officially was announced that the
king is suffering from subacute
bronchitis. While his condition is
not serious and he merely is con-
fined to his room, the weakness Of
his majesty's respiratory organs is
too well known to premit such an
infection to be regarded without
concern.
The weather has been variable
lately, and the king suffered a chill
while walking in the park. The ma
tllre of the infection was not known
until today, when the following
bulletin was issued:
His majesty the king is suffering
from an attack of sub-acute bron-
chitis. His majesty is making slow
but satisfactory progress"
