TJpon arriving there he found the muff and the woman, and ered she had been here telling pitiful Btories of having been put off the train witli no money. She begged a considerable amount to go to Monroe, whre shesaidher husband was siok. When brought here she plead not gnilty, demanded a jury trial and employed counsel. As the jury began to assemble she became uneasy, and as she remarked to save time, she chariged her plea to gnilty, paying a fine and costs to the amount of nearly thirty dollars, and had considerable money left. The sirangest part is she is the individual owner of a good farm near Marshall, and has inoney at interest. She leaves her farm and is continually travelling, begging, always taking ladies for victima, appealing to their sytnpathy with her stories. She goes by the name of McCoferty.
