A young woman who is a domestic at one of the frat houses was out walking with a young man Sunday night. During the time they were together they drank some whiskey from a bottle which the man had in his possession with the result that both of them became intoxicated. They wandered down S. Main st., and finally arrived in front of a house where the young woman said some friends of hers lived and she was going to stay the night with them. She had evidently got off in her hearings for when she applied for admission it was refused her and a second attempt later on also met with a refusal. In her befuddled condition the young woman imagined she was at home and having wandered into the woodshed she took off her hat, cape, belt and shoes and laid down to sleep. About 3 a. m. she was awakened by the cold and having become somewhat sobered by that time, after some difficulty, found her way out of the woodshed and went home in her stockinged feet, leaving her clothing where she had taken it off. The finding of it in the morning, when it was handed over to the police, gave rise to many sensational imaginings on the part of the Detroit newspaper correspondents. On Tuesday morning the young woman called at police headquarters and got her clothing, at the same time admitting that she was intoxicated when it happened and the sensation was "busted."
