expedient of forged checks then ar

pal features in the case of Mrs. Clara
Walters, pretty young stenographer
under arrest here, and therefrcm

Mrs. Walters was staying at the
apartment of Mrs. Maude Goodhue
when she was accused ot stealing a
diamond ring. She admitted the theft
but between tears averred that she
had stolen the jewel to buy clothes
for her baby.
"Mrs. Goodhue told me that she
would keep my baby until I reim
bursed her for the ring, valued at
$200 and gave me a paper to sign,
which I did," she told the police.
Then followed the struggle to ob
tain money for the veritable ran
som. Driven to desparaltion, she
finally passed several forged checks
at local department stores. Her ar
rest followed.
Mrs. Gcodhue has already Hied a
legal petition for the adoption of the
baby, but civic organizations are ex

have the child returned to Its mother
