I Beautiful Girl Tires of Rural Life and
Tries Smart Chicago Hotels—
Now Eats Porridge Instead
of Artichokes.
Chicago.—Two thousand dollars in
two months ought to buy a fairly good
living, even in these times.
But it seemed small to Margaret
Lamb, a beautiful girl from South Da
kota, who in that two months lived at
six of the smart hotels in Chicago, and
Intended to visit them all, signing
meantime nice green checks on her
father’s bank account.
Margaret also bought a dress and
paid $135 for it, and she bought sill;
stockings for $12.50, and yellow silk
ones for $8 and corsets for $20, and
French hats, and in Minneapolis on
her father’s checking account she
bought another gown for $150, order
ing by mail.
And violet ray baths?
Margaret had two a day and a hair
dress and manicure every time she
ventured out into the broad light.
It wasn’t easy for Assistant State’s
Attorney Hogan to decide what to do
with Margaret, because she is a very
upright person, with nothing against
her but the floating of father’s fat
checks.
Margaret’s mother died when she
was four. Her father, who is wealthy,
has had a housekeeper on his farm
in South Dakota for the past many
years, and she cared for the younger
sister and the little brother.
Margaret suddenly got ambitious
and came to Chicago to study music,
promising to live with her mother’s
brother and his wife in Oak Park.
Oak Park bored Margaret. She hit
the trail for the loop. She decided ho
tels would suit her. She went shop
ping and bought $1,000 worth of
.ill! IIHill,h. . in nr
Scrubbing Floors at 6 a. m.
clothes. Then she hit the Cooper Carl
ton, the La Salle, the Surf, the Hyde
Park—and so on. She signed checks
liberally and tipped like a loop hound.
The aunt and uncle notified the fa
ther in South Dakota that Margaret
had disappeared. Detectives found tier,
comfortably located at the Edgewater
Beach. She told every one she was
twenty-three. She’s barely seventeen.
Likes Her Chickens Fried.
Mrs. Anna L. Davern of the Juvenile
court was sent to talk to Margaret and '
for days she and Mr. Hogan have tried
to convince the girl that the cows and
chickens weren’t so bad when you had
a fine and adoring father. Margaret
trowned on the chickens.
Officer Fred Becker and Mrs. Da
vern took Mai’garet in a cab to the
Chicago Home for Girls, with the con
sent of both her uncle and her fa
ther, and there she will be locked up
till she awakens.
BOY HIS OWN DETECTIVE
Penneylvania Lad Shows That He
Needs No Help From the City
Police Force.
Chester, Pa.—Rhoades Heald, 15, of
1102 Price Place, has the distinction
of being the best juvenile detective in
the state. A few days ago he left liis
bicycle In front of a barber shop while
he was getting his hair cut.
When he came out his wheel had
disappeared and he notified the police.
He also started to do some detective
work himself. He learned that two
boys had torn apart a 'wheel and had
thrown the frame into an old quarry
hole where the wheel was taken. The
lad fished it out and found it was the
frame of his wheel. In the meantime
the boys had taken the good parts of
Heakl’s wheel and attached them to
an ©Id frame. Young Heald leai*ned
this and the boys promised to pay
him $15 rather than be arrested.
Tfce police called off matters ow
ing to the age and respectability of j
the b»ys under promise that in the fu
ture they will not tamper with other
people's property.
LONG SEPARATION
IS HAPPILY ENDED
Pittsburgh.—After a separation of
13 years, a Pittsburgh mother and her
daughter have been happily reunited,
climaxing an unrelenting search by
John Englert of 341S Gleason street,
McKeesport, a tipstaff in the Alle
gheny county courthouse.
Thirteen years ago Mr. Englert took
Jane Elizabeth Graham, then a girl
aged 12, from an asylum. Several years
before, Nathaniel Graham, the girl’s
father, a veteran riverinan, died, and
the girl and brother were placed in
St. Paul’s asylum. Two years later
I
“That's My Baby!" txc (aimed Mrs.
Graham.
they were transferred to another asy
lum and mother and daughter lost
trace of each other.
The girl grew to womanhood and is
happily married, being the wife of T.
A. Collins of 2622 Bedford avenue,
and mother of a 14-month-old daugh
ter. She believed her mother was liv
ing, and Mr. Englert, since the mar
riage, never ceased his efforts to find
his former ward's maternal parent. Ha
enlisted the aid of rivermeil friends
of the father, and the other night,
through Joseph Itice, Fourth avenue
plumber, the mother was located liv
ing near Second avenue. Mr. Bice tele
phoned the word to- Mr. Englert, and
the latter arranged for mother and
daughter to meet. The reunion was
pathetic.
“That’s my baby,” exclaimed Mrs.
Margaret Graham, aged 01, the in
stant they met.
It developed that Mrs. Graham nev
er gave up hope of finding her daugh
ter, and when on the street always
scanned faces in hope of recognizing
her. Mrs. Collins has arranged for her
mother to share her home during the
balance of the mother’s life. Mrs. Col
lins has seen her brother only once
since the separation at the asylum.
