Thelma. The girl is the one who left her home yesterday, leaving a note saying that she had no friends here, and who later was found by Sheriff Gehrett and the mother at the Cortland hotel in Fort Wayne. The unfortunate girl was brought home and told har mother of her alleged relations with Lydy, and the case was taken up by Juvenile Officer W. A. Lipkey before Judge Gordon last night. According to friends of Miss Klop- > fenstine. the girl became despondent t some time ago and attempted her life. Lydy made no comment upon the warrant, merely saying, “I expected it.” s He was placed under SSOO bond and t bound over to circuit court. The Klopfenstine girl was register- • ed at the Cortland hotel at Fort I Wayne as Mrs. Cecil Ljely. Sheriff Gehrett and a plain clothes man from the Fort Wayne police department went to the hotel and found the girl waiting in the parlor. She pleaded with the sheriff not tn take back to Bluffton but gave up when the officers told her, her mother was waiting in a machine below. Registered as Man and W : fe The girl was taken to police headquarters in Fort Wayne and there punctuated by sobs, told the story of her wrong doing with Lydy. Promised to Marry Her She stated that Lydy had made promises of marriage to her, saying “we’ll go away oft somewhere and be married." She said that she went to Fort Wayne yesterday and.was waiting sot Lydy to join,, her and that they had planned to leave last night, Lydy promising to marry her.

Mr. Hammell was elected clerk In 1914 but did not assume his office until January 1916, serving until last July when, by agreement with his bonding company who made up a shortage in the office, he retired except as to name. The action today will prevent the bending c< mpany drawing any of the salary of the clerk from this date on. Mr. Hammell'a removal was upon the first three counts of the action, to which lie plead guilty, the most important being the third which charged abandonment of his office on July Ist.
