FLORENCE BARTLETT, RETTA DOOLITTLE They Are Only Sixteen, but Seem to Have Serfous Love Affairs— Mother is Injured While Prosecuting Search. The police force of this city {s actively engaged searching for two young girls who bave disappeared from thelr homes and whose anxious parents have sought the as- sistance of the authorities In trylng to find them. The missing girls are Floreuce Bartlett, who lived with her parents on Little Benton street, and Retta Doolittle, daughter of J. A. Doolittle, a farmer of Carson, this county. The Bartlett girl Jeft her home Sunday and although she has been seen several times since the police yester- day were unable to place their hands on her. Miss Doolittle is supposed to have eloped Wednesday from the parental roof with a youth named Trice and was thought | to be in this city yesterday, but the police were unable to find any trace of her. Both of the young women are only 16 years of age. Young Trice, who Is sald to have Doolittle, is under 20 years. The Bartlett betore, girl has run away from It !s only about two years young Worlde took it and drove off toward Omaha. At Thirty-fourth street and Ave. nue A he drove on the motor tracks In front of an approaching car. The motor- man called to him to get off the track, but the boy became frightened and was un- able to turn the horse. As the motor slackened up the boy jumped from the | buggy and ran toward the pumping station. Passengers on the car supposed he had become suddenly deranged by the heat and two men started after him. Just as the boy reached the pumping station the en- gineer caught him and the lad collapsed. He appeared to be entirely unconsclous and lay as if dead. Water was thrown in his face and sympathetic bystanders fanned him with their hats, but gave no sign of lite, The police were telephoned to and the | ambulance was sent to the scene. It was thought that the bay was a carrier for one of the local papers. He never gave a slgn of lite until the police station was | reached, when he was instantly identified ae an inmate of the Christian home, who had been in trouble before for atealing | the boy things. It then developed that the boy | had played “possum’ and that there was | nothing the matter with him. The horse | | and buggy were later identified by Morse. | George Morrison Discharged. | George Morrison, charged with tractur- ing Delbert Carver's jaw during an alter- cation over the possession of accreted lana near Crescent City, bad his preliminary hearing before Judge Aylesworth in the superfor court yesterday and way charged. During the hearive it developed that Carver and Morrison had a fight and that there was no premeditated assault on | the part of Morrison. It appeared that Morrison, who was car- rying a shotgun, went into the fleld where Carver was and was drinking at the wat- ering trough when Carver went up to him and sald: “Guess you will have to take #go that she left with a young fellow, but | that gun to the table with you when you was arrested at Glenwood and returned to her parents. She left her home last Sun- day and is supposed to be fn company with | & young man employed in a local restau- rant, but whose name is not known to her parents. It is reported that she has been seen several times in Fairmount park and was ordered away from there late at night a couple of days ago by Park Patrolman Murphy. A thorough search of the park was made yesterday, but no trace of the sirl could be found. It Is thought, how- ever, by the officers that the couple are hiding either in the park. or in the vicinity. Parents Vietimas of Runaway, The parents assisted in the search In the afternoon and when returning from the park were the victims of a runaway accl- dent. They were driving in a light spring wagon and at the corner of Fourth street and Broadway the horse took fright at a passing motor and started to run away. The wagon was overturned and Mr. and Mrs. Bartlett and their little baby were thrown out. Mrs. Bartlett suffered a dis- location of the right kuee, while the baby recelved a severe bruise on its head. Bart- lett, who hung to the reins, managed to stop the horse and escaped with a few bruises. Mre. Bartlett and the baby after recelving medical attendance were removed to their home on Little Benton street. Retta Doolittle, the 16-year-old daughter of J. A. Doolittle of Carson, left her home Wednesday, driving across country to this city with a young man named Trice, son of & well-to-do farmer in the same neigh- borhood. The marriage record In the office of the clerk of the district court fails to show that they secured a license here, and it is thought that if they are married they secured the license across the river. Doolittle wus In the city Thursday night searching for his daughter, and from in- formation ho recelved he believed that young Trice had gone to the home of rela- tives in Hancock, but he was unable to se- cure any trace of the girl. The police re. celved word yesterday from Carson that the young woman was probably at the home of a friend on South Seventh street In this | city, but nothing had been heard of her there. Deatha tn Council Bluffa, David Tostevin, a ploneer resident of this clty, died yesterday morning at St. Ber- nard's hospital, of which he had been an inmate for the last three years.
