CHICAGO. Aug. 14.—<*>>—'The
most astute minds of the town hall
police station are agog over the
great Vella Schauffer Jewel mys
tery.
Vella, who will be 10 years old
pretty soon, made it plain it would
be just too bad for the entire force
if her gems were not found right
away. She pushed her way up to
the sergeant’s desk yesterday and
demanded to see the “head man.”
The sergeant intimated he was it.
“What kind of jewelry was it
you lost?” he asked. Vella said it
was a necklace.
“And what was ita approximate
value?” continued the sergeant He
had to translate. “What was the
necklace worth?”
“Oh. a thousand hundred dollars."
exclaimed Vella.
‘My. my!” said the sergeant. “And
where did you get it?”
“Mama bought it for me.” piped
Vella, “in one of thoes stores with
the red front. Either Kresge's or
Wool worth’s I don’t remember. And
it’s worth a thousand hundred dol
lars. And you’d better find it right
away, ’cause I don’t believe you're
the head man anyhow."
The sergeant was impressed. He
assigned his best men to the case.
It was hinted early today they had
found a clue. They had not. how
ever. found the jewels.

16th day of September. 1929. in a
suit numbered on the Docket of
said Court No. 8664. wherein Lin
coln Adams. Jr., is plaintiff and
Grace Ferguson Adams is defend
ant. the nature of plaintiffs de
mand being substantially as follows,
to-wlt:
That on September 15, 1823. plain
tiff and defendant were lawfully
married and thereafter continued
to live together until about the mid
del of the year 1927. when defend
ant without just cause refused to
further live with plaintiff: that!
plaintiff, during the time of Ihing
with defendant was at all times
considerate of defendant, and con
ducted himself with propriety,
treating defendant with kindness
and forbearance, but that, on the
other hard, dc<^ndant was contin
uously captious with plaintiff,
..ought to humiliate him by up
braiding him and bemg captious
toward him in public, commenced
and conducted a policy of going
from town to town establishing
herself at pleasure resorts, refusing
to live with plaintiff, insisting that
plaintiff turn down employment
offered him. and refused to allow
plaintiff to keep their minor child
in the presence or the two of them,
all of which injured his feelings and
sensibilities, he being a member of
a socially prominent family, all of
which excesses, cruel treatment, and
outrages, and iniurics to plaintiff’s <
feeling and sensibilities are of such j
a nature as to render their further
living together insupportable.
Plaintiff prays judgment of the
court dissolving the bonds of matri
mony now existing between them,
that he have the care and custody
of the minor child, that it be found
and decreed by the court that there
is no community property between
plaintiff and defendant and that
the title in plaintiff to all property
now standing in his name be ad

separate property, that he have all
costs in this behalf expended and
