Mrs. Albri was given in charge of per got his men to work with the re- sult that he soon had the local end of the affair. If the facts had been as the girl described, some arrests might have followed. Policeman Henderson was sent out on a still hunt by the chief, and he cured much information and hlm-ll had some facts, ag he was at the sta- tion at the time, and recalled when the couple left here for Providence. The girl was not anxious to see & po- liceman then and apparently had no complaint to malke.

During the day a brother of the man called at the house, also look- ing for work, and, like the others, he was glven something to eat, and it was there the thres met. They stayed at the house that night, the brothers llee‘plng together, and the girl occupy- ing another room. Her story of the assault was emphatically denied, as nothing of the kind took place there. It was also that she well knew the house where she stayed, in con- tradiction to the tale told in Provi- dence that she dldn’t know where it was, or whose house it was. They left the day following for Provideno Mrs. Danahey, probation officer for women. A déspatch from Newmarket, N. H., confirmed Mrs. Albri’s statement of abduction. Her husband, Lorenzo Albri, a mill employe there, on hear- ing that his girl Pwiis bas sought po- lice protection in Providence, declared it was true, that another man, whose name as he understood it, was Ares- tildes Deveaus, had compslled his wife by threats and display of a revol- ver to leave her home. Albri says he wants his wife to come back, and she is being held for him in Providence. They have not been in this country very long and went to Newmarket from Lowell, Mass. a year ago.

Mrs. Albri objected that she had no brother-in-law and that she had never seen the man before, whereupon Albri declares the stranger drew a revolver and threatened to use it unless the woman went away with him. The wo- man_became frightened, according to her husband, and finally was forced to consent to the arrangemen Albri left the house when forced to do so by the stranger. When he re- turned, fearfully, he found his wife missing. He had h 'd nothing fur- ther from her until he was told she had applied to the Providence police for protection, and that the man with her hed been’ taken into custody.

Pleasures, diversions, flirt- ations that for a young gir! are per- fectly legitimate, appeal to me, also, yet if I should rush into those gay- etles as a girl does my behavior would be characterized as foolishness.
