Little Girls Tired of Picking Berries, Run Away. a TREAXNE WIFE SURPIRSES HER HUSBAND, AND HE SURPRISES HER-WIFE - AND MISTRESS, WILL LIVE TOGETHER WHILE HUBBY 18 IN JAIL FOR NON-SUP- PORT. About two weeks ago a man and woman registered at the Farmers' Ho- tel at Mt. Morris, under the name of Frank Berts and wife. He said that he was about to open a music store in town and that he was waiting .for the return f the proprietor of a vacant storé in town which he was going to lease. In the meantime he went to liv- eryman. McNeilly daily and got a rig uud drove around the country tuning pianos and trying to make sales of in- struments, paying the liveryman each night for his rig. On Monday night he told the livery- man that he was going to take a long drive, and, of course, had no trouble in getting the best horse and buggy on account of his promptness in paying. He and his wife started early Tuesday morning and they have not been heard from since, leaving Mr. Leddick, pro- prictor of the Farmers' Hotel, in the hole for a $7 board bill and also stealing a silk dress from Leddick's wife. Thursday morning word was receiv- ed from Cuba that the stolen property had been recovered, that the horse was dead, and that the parties had disap- peared toward the Pennsylvania line. It has been learned that this is his sécond offense, as he stole a horse about a year ago in Allegany County and that time was traveling under the name of Frank Berch. Wednesday night as Frank - Storms and George Knoll, two employees of the Canning Company, were returning home from work at about 12 o'clock they stumbled over the unconscious form of Everett Rathbone, a canmaker employed by the same company, lying beside the railroad tracks. - He had been struck by a freight train that had passed some time before and received Injuries that may prove fatal. He was carried to the home of his brother-in- lrw, Herbert Belknap, and attended by Dr. Armstrong of this place, who found several fractured ribs. Complaint was made at the police station at Medina Wednesday that two tittle girls, Allie Bates of North Ridge- way, aged 18, years, and Nellie Grapes of Ridgeway, aged 11, had disappeared and were thought to have run away. They were traced as far as Medina and queries at the railroad station showed that they had bought tickets for Ni- agara Falls. Officer Henri Fuller went in pursuit and found the little ones at the Falls and brought them back. They had determined to run away and their objective point was Canada, where the father of one of the-girls lives,. 'They had only $1 in money and their fund was about exhausted when they reach- ed Niagara. They had packed up bag- gage enough for an emigrant and their luggage consisted of two baskets, a pail and a lot of bundles tied up in sheets and pillow cases. They: had walked most of the way to Medina, staying wit ha farmer at night. Justice Buainard gave them a good lecture and m charge of the place. The girl was on the back porch bending over the wash- tub when she heard a slight noise which she supposed was made by the house dog trotting about. The next instant the leering face of an ugly tramp was thrust over her shoulder and a gruff voice demanded food. Hoping she might get into the house and escape him, shetold him she would get him something, but he looked around and asked if she was alone. This increased her fright and she man- aged to gasp out \No but her evident terror probably emboldened him for he struck her across the back as she re- treated, with an ugly stick he carried, and grasping her throat he choked and struck her again and again, till she fainted. ' . She lay unconscious for a longe time and when she recovered she was alone, but unable to move, On the return of her family she was found in a dazed condition, not able to give even a vague discription of her assailant. B Miss Lily is a pretty, modest appear- ing girl, slender and delicate in physi- que, and though able to move about to- day is in a pitiable state from the shock she has sustained. She is terribly bruised about ler throat, face, back and limbs, but the full extent of her injuries can only be determined by a physician. She was pale to the lips as she told her story to a Courier correspondent and could only speak in a trembling voice with quivering face. She is thrown into nervous tremors at the least sound, though she made pathetic efforts to control herself. A neighbor saw a- rough looking tramp a half mile below the cemetery and believes he was the brute who later assaulted Miss Lily, but he did not notice him particularly and can give no discription which is satisfactory. A bad accident happened on the Grand Trunk Railroad near Chatham, Ont., at 9 o'clock Friday night. A switch engine was standing on the main track when the express train dashed round the curve and struck it. The engineer of the express train, whose name was Gonzales and whose home was in Chicago was killed. The others on the train were badly shaken up, but none was hurt. A Some time ago.a correspondent as- serted that so far as the Raines law was concerned it was a failure as a temperance measure in the village of Perry. The Perry papers hastened to assure their readers that it was untrue and, the correspondent a general all- round prevaricator. Under date of July 16 the Perry Record publishes the - following: > \'One price to all is the motto of Jus- tite Roup and those who indulge too freely of the flowing bowl are obliged to pay $10 each for their fun. Harry Anderson, Harry Scott, J. V.' Fox, Ora Calligan, and Warren Allen have: been before the Judge during the past week and will be obliged to meet the require- ments.\ *~ . 'The records of Justice Roup: show. that since the licenses were taken out there have been 10 persons fined for in- toxication. But Castile village shows a different result. There have been no arrests for intoxication with two li- censes. 'The only explanation that can be given is the liquor sellers in Perry are all Republicans, while the two in Castile are Democrats and observe the law carefully. - A man who gave his name as James White was arrested early Thursday evening by Officer H.

' A few weeks ago it was announced that Mrs. Frank Hoffman had left her home in North Tonawanda and in com- pany with Ezra Osborne, had departed for parts unknown. She had run away with Osborne once before, but her hus- band forgave her, and took her back again. She left a home and a family without any apparent just cause. She bas been away about a month and re- turned Wednesday. She arrived in 'Tonawsanda and went directly to the: home of her husband. He was at work at the time and she opened a window and entered the house. As soon as she was at home she decided to prepare for the home coming of the husband that she had deserted. She kindled a fire and prepared supper. Mr. Hoffman ar- vived at 6 o'clock and was surprised to find a supper and a wife awaiting him. J' However, he was uot agreeably sur- prised, and in spite of arguments he drove the woman from the house. The actions of Mrs. Hoffman have incited the ungavorable comments of the neighbors and they approved of her husband's course.
