Two Children kidnapped.

TERRE HAUTE. March 20-[Specisll. -
Much excitement has been created here by
the spiriting away, yesterday, of two
children from the Second ward school. A
stylishly dressed woman came up to the
s;hool-yard during the afternoon, and,
calling Charley and Eddie Gerstmeyer,
aged eight and six, over to the fence, asked
them to go with her. They began to cry,
and the woman thereupon left. An hour
or so afterward the same woman drove up
in an omnibus to the school and demanded
the children, declaring she was their STEP
mother. Miss Paige. the teacher, started
to see the principal, but no sooner had she
left than the woman seized the children,
and despite their cries forcibly carried
them out to the omnibus. In this she was
assisted by a man, who afterward proved
to be her husband. The party then drove
away. The occurrence left the school In q
ferment of excitement.
The mystery was not long in coming out.
The woman was Mrs. Gerstmeyer, second
wife of DR.. julius Gerstmeyer of Brazil,
Ind. The man with her, who did not come
on the scene until her second visit, was her
husband and the father of the child en-.
They were in the keeping of DR.. Charles
Gerstmeyer Of this city, their uncle, who
was given possession of them soon after the
death of the first Mrs. Gerstmeyer. The
man and the woman drove to the depot
with the children and left for the west.
