A dispute, which is likely to result in
yexations litigation, has been brought into
court within the past few days. A young
woman named Adeline S. Thayer claims
the adopted child of Mr.. and Mrs. ID. 5.
johnson, a respectable married couple re-
siding OF boarding on Walnut street. Miss
Thayer is good looking girl OF perhaps
twenty or twenty-five wears Of age, and has
been employed for the past two years as
house servant in some OF the best families
in this city. But it appeared that AIDE
line had been unfortunate in her maiden
loving, and to hide her shame and save
her parents from disgrace, started to
Wamego. Kansas, TO visit her mothers
sister, a Mrs. :. S. Townsend, the
wife Of a worthy farmer in that VI
cinity. But instead Of going TO Wamego,
Miss Thayer stopped in Kansas City, and
changing her name and identity, became
lost TO her home and friends in private
boarding house in Kansas City. In 1874
she left a little founding, only few days
old, well supplied with clothing ard ink
cts, upon the doorstep Of gentlenian'-
residence on Locust street Before leaving
her child it was marked upon the shoulder
| in India ink with a small ctoss. The moth
er states that she did this in the hope oi
some day being able to claim her own. The
child was sent to the Woman's Home and
from thence TO the City Hospital, from
thence it was taken by Mrs. johnson and
adopted as her own. A few days ago Mis-
| Thayer received a notice from Packard a
Welsh, attorneys at law, Albany, \. v
that by the death of her father she had
fallen heiress TO good home and consider
able money, and that she was notified &c
appear, &c, &c. Now, she wants
her child. She SAYS she has known
| where it has been all this time
and has kept watch over its welfare ever
since its birth. Her oply reason for Its
abandonment is her inability TO take care
of 1t. The father of hei child is well &c
do merchant of Albany, and recently mar.
ried. Miss Thayer seems determined to
have her child back again, and its adopted
parents are as determined 10 retain posses
sion of child they love as their own. Thus
far, all attempts made by Miss Thayer to
recover possession OF her child have proved
futile. She is unable to prove the positive
identity OF the little innocent, and Vt is
more than probable that she viii have to
go East, and share her new found wealth
with other relations than this infant son
without name. Her attorneys are pre-
pairing TO make an effort in her behalf,
which will be stoutly resisted by those who
have 4 better right to its possession.-k. C.

Synopsis of The Condition Of Certain Crops

Synopsis Of he Condition Of Certain Crop!
from the Department of Agriculture.
WASHINGTON, June 2i-The following
synopsis OF the condition of certain crops
has been received from J. Il. Dodge, Stats.
tician OF the Department OF Ayr iculture
The condition OF Winter wheat generally
is still reported comparatively low. A
marked improvement is observed since the
April and May returns in the Winter wheat
prospects of the West, especially in Kansas.
The State averages of the condition of Win.
ter Wheat in the district beyond the Allie
ghanies are as follows West Virginia, 60
Kentucky, 81 Ohio, 81 /; Michigan, 50; In
diana, Il; Illinois, "a; Missouri, Is; Kan
sas, 81. The fly and chinch-bug have
wrought some injury in the Western States,
and drouth has been locally injurious. The
condition OF Spring wheat is much better,
though not generally a full average. The
State averages are as follows: Illinois, 81 +;
Wisconsin, "a; Minnesota, SO; Iowa, 81;
Missouri, SO; Kansa 81; Nebraska, 1O5.
The present indica ion of the condition If
winter and spring wheat points TO four
fifths of full crop.
Rye promises better than wheat yet it
will not mature full crop. 1t is best in
Northern New England in most of the Gulf
States.
There is small increase in the breadth
of the oats crop, caused in part by the aban-
donment of winter wheat areas Its condi-
ton is generally good, almost full average
in the States of largest production, but bet
ter in central districts than on the Atlantic
coast ar in California
