successful.
To-day about2 o'clock Mrs. Anderson
drove up to the school which her oldest
child attended aad sent message to the
teacher requesting her to send the child
out. The teacher did SO. AS soon as the
child reached the sidewalk she was
seized by the mother, who placed her In the
waiting carriage ard drove off. A young
woman noticed the strange proceedings.
and not knowing that the stranger was
the child's mother, FASTENED to Mr.. An
derson's store aud told him what she had
seen. Mr.. Anderson and Constable Wal
ling instantly set out to find the child.
After nasty drive of several miles the
carriage containing the fleeing woman
with the child was discovered, making
tor the railroad station. Before the
mother could get aboard the constable
overlook her and succeeded in taking the
child from her. Quite scene eneued.
Mrs. Anderson is very pretty woman,
of medium height and about 90 years Of
age. Before her marriage abe was the
leader Of society at KeypUrt and the in
cident has caused q deal OF talk.
