A dispatch from Heaver, Col., says
Miss Vivian George, daughter of F
George, a wealthy Loo Angelas mer
chant, and Ralph Lougbbrough, an
artist art cartoonist, of Salami
H’ci., are believed to have perished
in tha mountains near Arapahoe
Pjak, fifty miles northwest Of Danver.
They were members of a bunting par
ty, and left Down’s mining camp on
Saturday morning, Deo. 16. They
have been missing since teat after-
noon-
Hunting parties have bean touring
the mountains slooe their disappear
ance, but the only trace found was
Mr. Loughbrougb’s rifle. The s
still continues, and tha searohars
being added to by new feciu
George’s father hat offered Mirge re
ward for tbe return of hv daughter,
dead or alive. —
Miss George is wplT known in D ,n
ver, where she has often bren tbe
guest of frjpn^s. She is an heiress
and when/pressnt«d at tee E n
court last year was dr dared by King
Eiw*fd to be one cf the most beauti
of America's beautiful women.
She Is an enthusiastic hunter, and
when a bunting party was proposed
last Saturday she entered Into it with
eagerness.
Mr. and Miss George, acoompanltd
by George Bellldgton, a prominent
Salt Lake City attorney, and Ralph
Loughbrougb, followed a guide from
Down’a camp to Windy Point, near
Arapahoe Ptek. There they found a
line, despite a heavy snowstorm, and
started, about fifty yards apart, to
stalk what was believed to be an t Ik.
When Mlsa Gsorge and tbe artist
failed to return it was thought at first
they had taken refuge In some shel
tered spot and would return as soon
as tbe fury of the storm abated, but
they were not seen afterward. -
