A Kidnapped Child Recovered.

Last Saturday morning detective A. c.
Burdick, of the central station Chicago
arrived in the city in search of a couple
who are travelling together as man and
wife and who had in their possession a
bright-eyed little girl of six years, the
daughter OF the man, but who was stolen
by her father from her mother, who
some time since secured a divorce from
her husband at Picatonica, ILL.,, their
former home. The detective has follow
| ed the couple through several states, To-
eating them once in Chicago, where they
gave him the slip; next hearing of their
whereabouts at Brunswick, Mo. On GO
ing t tina point he learned just a little toe
late that the parties whom he wanted had
flown. He then came here, found the in
dividuals he sought registered as man ant
wife and daughter at the Ringo house
Burdick at once applied to Judge S. NJ
Edwards for an order, giving him pos
session of the child, which was granted
and the detective, in company with hi
charge, departed at once for the home O
the little ones mother, much elated a
the success of his capture. The littl'
girl danced with delight at the prespec
of being freed from her captors, for whom
she seemed to have great aversion. TIL

How to Spend Sunday Afternoons.

from IeckS sun.
An exchange has a long article headed
"How to Spend Sunday Afternoons" AS
the season is fast approaching when this
subject is frequently discussed, it is we'll
to have such items gong the rounds.
Come to think of it., there are a great
many ways of spending Sunday afternoon,
and though we did not read the article re-
ferred to above, Wen bet it did not ad-
wise people to take cans of angle worms
under their arms, and poles over their
shoulders, and 60 away for a quiet after
noon's-fshing. There are as many diff
ferent ways of spending Sundays as there
are different people in the world, as al
most every person will put in the day diff
~ferently from what another would. To
be sure there are cases of men who go to
church in the forenoon persueing the
scriptures or the daily papers. Another
man may put in the forenoon of Sunday
cleaning and wiping a double barreled
shotgun and loading cartridges, and short
ly after dinner he will be seen meander-
ing along the back streets on his way te
some duck pasture to while away a quiz
ct Sunday afternoon knocking the stuff
ing out of duck. A family may put il
their time with a croquet set in the after
noon of Sunday, while their next dool
neighbors will be performing their accus'
toned Sunday devotions. 1t will be pref
ty hard work for the writer of the article
on elbow to Spend Sunday Afternoons
to reform the whole world or that sub
ject and make people all think alike.

ATrne Ghost story.

London letter 10 the Liverpool Mercury.
When hardly more than a lad, at Ian
caster, the future defender Of vivisection
was studying for the medical profession
he was collecting skulls. He made q fine
set, but for a long time he could not get
an Ethiopian skull. At last a negro died
in Lancaster castle and the young doctor
got PERMISSION to have his head. 1t was
again a windy night when the operation
of moving the head was determined upon.
But habited in his long cloak, then the
fashion, and provided with blue bag,
the comparative anatomist soon had the
head slowed away. As he left the room
in which the coffin lay, however, the
wind slammed the door, caught the cloak
and nearly threw him upon his face. At
tempting to recover himself, he lost
his hold of the bag, the head few
out and rolled with increasing velocity
down q flight of steps, across a court
yard, and settled itself upon the neck,
with one eye open and the other shut, in
a room where two women shrieked. The
professor rushed wildly after it, took nc
notice of the women, seized the skull, put
it in his bag again, and ran from the cas-
tie. Four or five years afterward he wa
