PHILADELPHIA. July 13.-While nine
year-old boy was wheeling his baby sister
in a coach at Eighth and Catherine streets
yesterday a woman dressed i'm white skirt
and black bodice her face covered with a
green veil, stopped him. took the baby out of
the coach and told the little boy to take the
coach back home. saying she would give
him fifteen cents when he returned. The
child started home with the coach. then
getting frightened at seeing the woman
walking swiftly away, he ran to the station
house on Lombard street, after which
he returned TO his mother, Mrs.
John ClaXtOn, with the sad story.
She summoned her friends . and
neighbOrs, who searched the neighb0rhOOd.
but could not find the child. The little
boy could not give an exact description of
the kidnapper, but this was subsequently
furnished by some older children who had
noticed the woman following the coach. The
baby, a little girl about a year old, was
dressed in a flannel skirt and calico dress.
She is still nursing, which aggTayates the
mothers grief. About o'clock yesterday
afternoon colOred woman called at Mrs.
ClaxtOn'S residence and told her that if she
would consult a medium at Thirteenth and
Market streets the latter could tell her
where her child was for 30 cents. In her
distracted condition the unhappy mother
paid no attention To this. as
She had no faith in midwives, but the
crowd that surrounded her door took
up the idea that the child was
stolen for the purpose of getting
reward for its return. Both ClaxtOn and
his wife say they had not an enemy in the
world that they know of. They think that
the woman who took the baby was attracted
by its beauty, and cannot bring themselves
to believe that it was done for revenge.

The semi-weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1882-1886, 1885-11-07

The relations OF the mining interests OF
the West to the general prosperity Of the
country are not sufficiently understood. If
they were, there would be less OF this sense
less cry against the continued coinage. The
Leadville Herald, whose editor has given
the subject serious consideration, says there
are nearly 1900 large manufacturing es-
Establishments in this country engaged in
producing mining machinery of different
kinds. Aside from those employed in the
mines, there are many thousands OF men
wholly employed as mechanics in the pro-
duction OF mining machinery. When w
add thereto those who are engaged in the
transportation OF the supplies and the ma
chinery used in mining operations, it can
be readily perceived that our mining inter-
ests are second to none of our various
branches of industry, except that of agri-
culture. In fact, mining has induced the
development of our vast domains in the
Territories and their cultivation under the
axe and pillow. Thousands OF miles of rail-
way have been built solely for the benefit
OF mining and it's agricultural allies. The
farmer or artisan who favors a suspension
of silver coinage simply strikes an indirect
blow at his own interests. The men in the
iron mills and coal mines Of Pennsylvania
are largely dependent for their prosperity
upon the activity in the mining regions of
the West, which consume large quantities of
iron in the shape ofmachinery and stimulate
the building of railroads.

THERE have been several cases of woman
beating in Butte recently, and when the
offenders have been punished at all they
have been let off with comparatively light
fines. Through evidently unwise action on
the part OF the Montana Legislature,
rigid bills providing for the adequate pun
ishment Of this oifense has, on two oc-
c%asions, failed to go through, and woman
beating is regarded by the statutes OF
Montana simply as ordinary assault and
battery. Such offenses as that committed
at the Toledo by the man Foley call for a
severer penalty than any laid down by the
laws Of Montana.
So says the Inter Mountain. Surely
there is ample law on which to punish this
brute. He assaulted the woman with a
deadly weapon, after having previously
threatened her life. This cannot be con-
strusd az Ordinary assault and battery"
md no "indooence" should be allowed to in
tsrfsre between the prisoner and justice.

The most important business lone at the
recent session of the New Mexico Terrific
rial Stockgrowers' Association was the ref
erence to the Committee on Resolutions Of
the subject Of National Range Association
to embrace all OF the cattle growers west OF
the Mississippi River, exclusively western
in character. This is a movement looking
to secession from the National Drovers' A :
ISOLATION, whose interests are totally apart
from those of the range cattlemen. 1t is
proposed to make this entirely a Western
association, with headquarters at some
prominent place in the West; the range cat
tie interests being totally different from the
agricultural and dairy interest, which con-
trolls the Horse and Cattle Breeders Asso-
citation, which is Don to meet in St. Louis.
This action has resulted in q call for a con-
vention to be composed Of purely Western
men at Denver, on January 20. No East
ern spectators or drovers are to be toler-
atsd or heard in this convention, only those
who are actually interested on the ranges
are to participate. 1t would seem as though
the meeting should commend itself to
actual cattle raisers.
