In the liver which made him straighten
out his legs spasmodcally, barking one

rosker which hung in the air, and getting

quired him 10 proceed any further in the
affair, when Mrs. McStinger suddenly be-
gan screaming all the names in the crimes
act, under the impression that the Charley
Ross abductors were trying 10 commit a
burglary, bigamy, robbery, and everything
else on her. Up TO this time she had been
speechless With terror, and had lain there
trembling, shedding perspiration, and ac-
cumulatlng shrieking power, until she had
gained the screaming capacity OF camel

third sforrdndo Jortlssip,o dccelerdndo,
when old McSlinger succeeded in getting
TO his feet once more and became dimly
visible to Mrs. McStinger. With one last
wild parting shrek she sprang from the
bed and made a dash for the door, near
which the rocking-chair still stood menac-
ing the whole universe with butting mo-
ton. Mrs. McStingor had no time for in
vestigation just then, and she pitched into
and over the rocking chair and clear on
down stairs, the chair after her, turning
over and over, and kicking Mrs. Nesting
er every bump until they both landed in
the hall below, where the chair broke all
to atoms. This ended the fight.

One result Of the long search for the
missing Ross child has been the discovery
Of an unexpectedly large number of stolen
children. For example, dispatch from
the interior of this State tells of a stolen
boy in an asylum at Cooperstown, taken
from circus company, and at first sup
posed to be Charlie Ross. It is amazing
how many friendIess. stray children have
been found since the search began. 1t
should be remembered, too, that only boys
somewhat resembling the Ross child have
been produced. How many children OF
different descriptions, boys and girls, are
not heard OF at all, we can only guess. The
business of kidnapping children is by 10
means confined to to those who carry it on
for the sake OF gaining a ransom.-N. Y.
