JOLIET, ILL.,, May 2s.-Joliet is greatly
exercised over the alleged kidnapping to-
lay of little Maudie Weast. aged 4 years,
daughter of Peter Weast, a convict.
Weast is a man of property, worth some
$50, 600 made in the saloon and restaurant
business. His wife aided in the business
by playing a piano TO draw trade. 1t is
claimed she formed a liaison with a man
named Pack, which ended in her husband
shooting her paramour and being sen
fenced a few months back to five years
imprisonment for m~anslaughter. Consid-
ering that his wife was not a proper per-
son to bring up their little daughter, he
gave the child to the %penitentiary chap
lain, the Rev. j. }. " alker, and wife.
who grew much attached to the little one.
This morning a Joliet lawyer named Elan
ders and Mrs. Weast drove to the Walt
ers' household, secured the child, and
made off with her. When Weast entered
upon his sentence he had two daughters,
his wife taking one, Birdie, and Weast
little Maudie. Birdie died under her
mothers care. 1t is claimed that Mrs.
Weast is making her home in Chicago,
amid surroundings not conducive to the
welfare of a child

ley, father of the girl, greatly exasperated
