A Big Loss.
Monday morning a young lady started from home for the purpose of doing some shopping, having in her possession a purse containing $50, but when she went to make a purchase the pocket book was gone. Whether she lost it or some one picked her pocket she is unable to say, but if she accidentally dropped it, it is to be hoped that the finder will return it to her. The purse was lost on Market street between Fourth and Sixth. The lady also entered the stores of Miss Rose Feeney and Wm. B. Sharp. A reward is offered for the lost money.
