LOOKING FOR A LOST MAN.
Hundreds of People Scouring Trevor
ton .Mountains.
Sh'amokln, Aug. 6 Hundreds of men,
women and children are scouring the
mountains surrounding this place, try
ing to determine the fate of Ueorge W.
Tillet, son of David Tlllet, former pro
prietor of the Royal Oak colliery. He
mysteriously disappeared Wednesday
morning. His sister last saw him dis
appearing over the brow of a hill close
to the homestead.
During the past year Mr. Tlllet com
plained of headaches and nervousness,
nnd, contracting n heavy cold, lapsed
Into such nn invalid state that since
March 4 he has not been able to trans
act business. Miss Tlllet wishWl to ac
company the Invalid, but he said it was
not necessary; that he would soon re
turn to take his medicine. That was
the last seen of him and a search was
started when he did not return. The
Trevortnn mountain has been scoured
and twenty-six airholes explored in
vain. It Is thought that Mr. Tlllet
might havo been affected with' the In
tense heat, and, losing his bearings,
wandered aimlessly into the mountains.
