New HAVEN, Conn. Nov. H.
Carl Tiernan aud his wife, Bertha,
live in tenement house on Oak
street, this city. They have been
married some years and have three
children. The youngest was born
on September LIST. The next day the
child was taken from them, and
they have since been unable to find
out anything about its whit ieaoonts.
Just opposite the Tiernan house
lives Mrs. Creegan. professional
nurse. Tiernan is wood worker,
but is frequently out of employment,
and the family is anything but we'll
to-do. Mrs. Creegan frequently vis-
its her neighbors, and Mrs. Tlernan
says that some days ago the nurse
entered the house, thrust a bank
note in her hand, and carried off the
baby, saying that rich woman In
New York wished to adopt the child.
A day or two later Tiernan demand
ed to know where his child was. He
called upon Mrs. Creegan, and ac-
cording to her story received from
her $50 as price for the infant.
Yesterday a paper was shown on
which Carl Tiernan and his wife
agree for the consideration OF $50 TO
give up all claims to their child in
favor of Mrs. Joseph Green, who
agrees on her part to suitably care
for the child. The Tlernans also
agree not to give Mrs. Green any
trouble on account of her possession
of the child. The document is evil
IDENTIFY drawn up by lawyer and is
duly signed by Tiernan and his wife.
1t is dated September IA The par
ents of the child seem hardly to
know Whist the agreement means.
They assert that they never expect
ed to give up their baby so COM
pletely Mrs. Tiernan at the time
the child was taken was hardly in
her right mind.

are keeping it The woman has
been separated from her husband

daughter are going on visit to
Leetonia. Ohio They left this city
on the / o'clock train for that place.

the animal would also get the better

THE new tax law passed by the
Legislature at the last session is Gre
ating much dissatisfaction through
out the State. In Berks county its
copstitutionality is questioned, and
measures have been taken to test il
in the courts. Tax laws are never
popular and always create more or
less grumbling, but when to this is
added the inquisitorial nature Of the
act, which requires that a sworn in
ventory of each citizens entire per-
sonal estate shall be laid open for
public inspection, its unpopularity
is intensified. Apart from this un-
pleasant feature, however, is the fact
tina. there is not much chance for
thrifty taxpayers to get in any crook
ed work, and as all property must
be returned for assessment under
oath, not much will escape taxation.
as it did under the old law, and the
rate per cent. can be made proper
tionately lower. We are not dis
posed, however, as are some of our
contemporaries, TO utterly condemn
this law. 1t is crude and needs
amendment in many OF its features,
but taxpayers should remember that
the State deals very gently with
them in the exercise of It's taxing
powers. Farms and other real es-
tate are exempt from taxation, and
the growing expenses of the State
required that additional revenue be
raised by this or by some other
means. But this necessity for in
creased revenues arises largely from
the lavish iiberality with which the
peoples money has been voted to
this, that, and other public institu-
tions and to themselves, by our leg
islators. IL this reckless expendi-
ture Of pbblic meaey was stopped,
and a generous but wise enonomy
exercised in making appropriations,
there would be no necessity for in
creased taxation, and if the last Leg
islature had complied with the gen.
eral demand for higher licenses the
additional revenue expected to be
raised by this law could haze been
collected from that source. Ii should
BE remembered. however, that while
this new law acts as drag net.
bringing tothe surface unpleasantly
the private affairs Of the citizen. it
at the same time compels al honest
return from all taxpayers. and thSt
the tax or personal property has
been lowered ere-fourth, in antiei-
patton that a full return from all
alike viii also bring to the surface
largely increased amount of proper,
ty for taxatioI.
