"One of the source- of unxietv ami

The tin. m I waters rot I along sand, grav

These flood entering the artificial re

quickly lay down their load, forming
a coating or layer of mud iu the reser

Instead of Mitchell turning over the 1
money to lodge Cameron and the mon
. . nut in Die city funds, he remained
silent and it was not until this morn
ing that the facts became known.
When the woman was released, Judgv
Cameron saw her upon the streets and

woman had been dangerously ill aud
that the county physician hail advised i
him t let her go.

on a charge of vagrancy. When ques
tinned by Acting Judge MoDevitt a to
why she was at liberty, the woman
told the story about the fJ and as

tion, lust what took place at that
