She was Margaret Travis, 19 vears old, an employe of St. Luke's Protest- ant Episcopal Home at One Hun- dred and Fourteenth street way, and the man with whom she went to the hotel was Ciarence N.

On_ Saturday night the couple started out for a walk, saying to a sister of Miss be back in a half-hour. It was 11 o'clock when the couple appeared at Trabold’s Hotel. Tra- bold, the proprietor, who was in the of- ice when the couple came In, said they Y | did not seem to have been drinking. Davis registered as “A. L. Smith and wife, Troy, N. Y.” The room they were shown to was a small one, with scarcely more than enough room for a double bed in it. After they got to the room they called for a walter and ordered two glasses of sherry. Toward midnight on Sunday Trabold made up his mind something was wrong, as the couple had been without anything to eat all d he called in Policeman Fox. The door was forced open.

All | show cases, both for liquors and cigar: |as well as the plate-glass windows and | doors, were broken to pleces. With light- ning speed they ran to John Herrig's sa- loon and had everything in the front of the room, including the plate-glass win- | | dows, broken when he appeared with a revolver, placed it at Mrs. Nation's head | and said that he would blow out her | brains if she did not desist.

Shaking her fist at the crowd, she said: “*Men of Wichita, this is the right arm of God and is destined to wreck every saloon In your city.” The women procured a wagon and rode through the streets in it, singing ‘‘Nearer, w1y God, to Thee” and kindred hymns in front of the saloons they held prayer me: y the th between $1000 ewed the wreckage, Mrs caused a new sensation to- night b g Sheriff Simmons on the face, taking hold of his ears and giving him a rough handling gener: Mr3.
