When Miss Harriet Boyd, bookkeeper at the Owl Drug store, quit her day’s work about 7 o'clock Tuesday evening she walked to the Raymond hotel, at Fifth and Main, to await the street car to take her home in Clarkston. As she stood for 2 minute at the corner, she noted a folded and tied handkerchief on the sidewalk and picked it up. There was no apparent owner near. so she took the handker- chief toher home. Upon reach- ing there, she was startled upon unfolding it to find a certified check on the First National bank for $500 and $500 in currency enclosed. It was a kind of sleepless night with Miss Boyd and so she was happy when yesterday morning she reached the store to report the find, and later the money was deposited in the First Na- tional bank. The owner was Hazel Jahn, a Nez Perce Indian woman of Lap- wai. She had reported her loss to the police late Tuesday night and Officer Skeels and Chief of Police Gasser immediately began an ivestigation. The woman was satisfied that the money had been stolen and so_ the officers found it necessary to make in- quiry of several persons, pursu- ing the investigation with vigor when word came as to the find- ing of the money. When Chief of Police Gasser advised the wo- man of the recovery and took her to the bank, her delight and appreciation were shown in a gift of $100.—Tribune.
