In the office, on my latter visit, I spent one of the most profitable hours of my life, for although he would not tell me Where Miss .Woodside was a that moment, he did tell me things which set my brain to Working in double quick time. All-the next day I spent in investigating the clues which he had given me, and that night I Went, to headquarters and told them my story. Miss Sandusky and Miss Trilinsky were the police reporters. The next day there was an extra out, and I thrilled with pride to see my name displayed in large type. - ' MISS, WOODSIDE ELOPES WITH . ' . ' S. TISDALE, POPULAR CAFE SINGER - . -. Mr. +1 Greatly Aided the Police in Solving the Mystery ' , New York-Mr. i--, one of the foremost citizens of this city has greatly helped in solving the mysterious dis- ,appearance of Miss Woodside, about Whom New York has beengagog for many days. I - -Miss Woodside, it appears met Mr. Tisdale, a popular cafe singer, at the Williams and Friede Cafe, and it happened to be one of those cases of love at first sight. ' Miss Woodside planned a secret elopement to escape the very thing she promoted-publicity. - Immediately after the Wedding rehearsal, Miss Woodside slipped around to the rear of the house Where Miss Andrewing Was Waiting With her car. In stepping to the running board, she unfortunately pulled the French heel from her slipper, the same being found later by Mr. Pierce. I The car Was driven to the Williams and Friede Cafe, a small, rural inn. Justice O'Brien, Who performed the cere- mony, was sworn to secrecy, for at least two days after the Wedding. ' The famous Syncopation Sisters CMisses Wolfe, Liepp- man, Fishman, Wienshank and RutherfordJ, who are popular entertainers at the-cafe, were the only Wedding attendants. The bride Wore a stunning outfit which was designed by the Lux, Schemelebeck Modiste Shop. The bride and groom left immediately after the Wedding for an isolated village, Where Miss Schnaitman, leader of Washington's younger set, has placed her villa at their dis- ' posal. The disappearance leaves many people Wondering how the bride could have been satisfied having the Wedding march played by a cracked Victrola record instead of by the leading musician in the country, and having the room scented with onions and beefsteak instead of by the choicest roses, carna- tions and lilacs. But-as the old adage says- Curiosity killed the cat. Class Prophecy- 4 1 P an un an ---- - - -Y -une-ua -fse u- -arm -nJ---uu'- u-- H-f-uk-Quit su'--nu--I -' ar in' A ' Ill' --uu+u 1 4

New York-Miss Atkins, Miss Cameron and Miss Gardner, interviewers for The Gossipy Gossip, were unable to gain an interview with the dancer, Miss Dorothyus Andrewing, who r was mentioned in 'last night's issued as connected with Miss Woodside's vanishing. The Woodside's chauzeur, James Grindstaff, has given some information to headquarters which they refuse to dis-f close at present. r Now right here is where I took it into my head to become more than an interested onlooker, and do a little detecting myself. The best place to start, I decided-, would be at the Woodside home, so thence I turned my steps. The home was surrounded by people, most of them being there out of curiosity.. The 'main magnet to the home, however, was a 215500 reward which had been offered to- any person who solved the mysterious case. The reward was offered by the Woman's Suffrage Club, of which the most important leaders are: Eugenia Goldman, Florencing Cicewski and Minnehaha Fine. Three young ladies, in severely tailored clothes, mannish hats and shoes were closely scrutenizing the garage floor with an immense magnifying glass. Luck seemed to smile upon me, for I spied a small white card at the extreme interior of the garage. My heart turned with a thrilly ker-flop. Needless to say Miss Everingham, Miss Breck- enridge and Miss Scheckler were as excited as I. Perhaps it was :1 hastily scrawled note which Miss Woodside had thrown from the car as the daring, blood thirsty kidnappers had made off with her. After this fond hope, you can imagine my discouragement when upon close inspection that little tantalizing bit of white proved to be only an ordinary calling card. But at least it had a name on it: MR. E. O'BRIEN Justice of the Peace Justice of the Peace! Ummm-now that was usually connected with marriages instead of kidnappers. Evidently the first thing to do would be to interview Mr. O'Brien, so the three Botanical young women and I started off. Mr. O'Brien's office was on the ninety-fifth floor and was one of the largest and most imposing office rooms I had even seen. At a large mahogany desk sat his stenographer, Miss Wilson. I recovered my composure, and calmly asked if We could see the Justice. She motioned us to seats and then touched a small buzzer on her desk. The door opened almost immediately and a fine, ,young fellow came out. Surely this wasn't the Justice. No-Miss Wilson was ordering him to find out if the Justice would receive us. She evidently saw our amazement that such a young man as had left the room would be a common office boy, and so she obligingly explained that as Mr. Mason's fthe office boyj highest ambition was to be a great Justice like the illustrous O'Brien, he had accepted the position with the idea of learning details about he business before he opened up an office of his own. , We were finally ushered into Mr. O'Brien's office but we gained absolutely nothing from our visit except the idea that he knew much about the affair and was telling nothing. I escorted the greatly dis- Class Prophecy 3 . I Il 1 Ir- 'I' il-'lI lh1lh1Q: Alu' H5081-ll'-ll'-il'lt-I4.Y1 ,l . I ll L ll
