Mrs. Anna O'Neill, was in Kansas. . Mr. Pearson is employed on a ranch near Ca-per, Wyo., but rents a house that city. He dropped his job and went out to search for his sister. He followed her from place to place in Kansas, at Columbus and Fort Scott, traced her to Grand Island and Seneca, thence to Mullen and Alliance. He found at Alliance that his Bister was at Hemingford, working in a potato field. ' He followed her there and there was a regular family reunion. Mr. Pearson s travels, however, had exhausted his store of cash. He had only five dollars left.
