permitted to go to their homes.
This afternoon Ciipt. Perkins
assembled his men and gave all
those who reside in or near

days.

I to those who had to reach home
’ bv rail, in order that they might
■ avail themselves of the reduced
’ rates granted troops.
> Capt. Perkins’ instructions
were most explicit. He stated
L Inal iuen WHO I aura vu lopunvu

quarters in this city, would be
arrested and courtmartialed as
deserters.
Not only this, but every man

THIS KLONDIKE
Has Trouble To Toll To The
Police
HUNTING ft LOST WIFE
Who Carried Away $40,000 In
Kold Klondike Kash.
San Francisco, Oct. s.—George
World was a successful miner 10
months ago. Now he is wandering
about the East looking for the
wife of his choice, who is thought
to have left for Europe with s4o,*
000 of his money .
In addition to deserting him.
Mrs, World had her husband ar-
FHstad in Denver, Colo., on the
charge of threats to kill. It took
the former Klondixer several days
to clear himself, and the 11,000
that he started East with, which
was all that remained of bis for
une, was soon expended in trying
to free himself from the clutchei
of the law.
The jury decided that World
bad been a much persecuted man,
but this decision was poor oalm
for his bruised soul.
1 World left Juieau for Puget
1 Sound about a year ago. He cami
1 to San Francisco, and from here
I went to Seattle, where he had de
cided to go into business.
i He leased a hotel and aunounc
| ed that it would be headquarters
■ r iL - nonr
fields. His venture paid, and he
would have probably remained in
’ Seattle for the balance of his life
9 had not a pretty young maid come
into his view and staked out a
1 claim ou his heart
t Their wedding was celebratec
1 with considerabfe ceremony. Mrs.
e World was pr<seub‘d with jewele
by her hushed, and, to prove his
n confidence * her, be made her
j custodian f ‘ aH the gold and bonds
0 be posses 3 ”-
The c^P le happily to-
5 gother or about three weeks,
d Worlc* his bride visited the
6 thea' f oue eve °i*jg- During the
9ecr d act, Mrs. World excused
ly and left the box to speak
ie p friend in the audience. She
ig wer returned. World waited for
jjome time, and finally started out
on a search that did not end for
30 days.
Through private detectives H
was learned that the young woman
was in Denver, cutting a conspic
uous figure in certain circles. She
had taken all her husband’s money
except SI,OOO, which he had in
his office.
World gave up his business and
left for Denver. Hs searched high
and low for his wife, and finally
mother in the street. She turned
toward a nsar-by doorway, and
bolted into it. World followed and
a struggle ensued in the hallway,
which ended by Mrs. World calling
loudly for help Policemen appear
ed and the woman declared that a
man, who pretended to be he
busband, had tried to kill Lar.
World was arrested,and had
great difficulty in proving his in
nocence. When h« was released h >
tried to have bis wife arrested for
theft, but the woman had disap
peared, and it was learned that
she had gone to New York.

We have never sold out at cost nor faked u the
people in any way, and therefore we think our adver
tisements are more worthy of consideration by the
trading public than if we made promises that we did
not live up to. We have always made it a rule to state
the exact facts and perform all we promise in our ad
vertisement, and we are not going to begin a crusade
of fakeism this late day.
