TWICE KIDNAPPED.

A Four-Year- Old Boy Captured and Resp.
tured-An Arrest.
Yesterday Mr. Samuel Sawyers, Of
9cundsville, came up 20 the city, and 60
ing before Justice Davis, after a cOnsulta-
ton with the police, he swOre cut a war
rant for Albert Wayman, q resident Of the
South Si6e, charging MIN with having kid
mapped his fOur-ysar.Old grandson. The
arrest vas made, AID the defendant was
released on FIVE hundred dollars bail, for a
hearing early in the coming week. Mr..
Sawyers communicated with Judge G. L.
Cranmsr and made preparations to apply
for writ of habsas corpus, to determine
the proper possession of the child in the
case.
The cause of this very interesting sit
uaiion was stated as follows
Some time ago Mr.. James E. Wsyman
a1d bis wife, the daughter of Mr.. Sawyers,
above mentioned, sgreed to separate, from
some cause not made public, and the

while the wife remained in MOundsville,
where the family had resided, she retain
| ing the custody Of the child. Friday Mr.
Wayman, accompanied by his brother
/ Albert went down TO EOundsville, and
Albert went to the house, and obtained per-
mission to take the little boy out to buy
some candy. Having tina boy in their
possession, the two men lest no time in
boarding a train for this city. This was
the situation up to yesterday morning,
and The proceedings referred to at the out
set grew out OF this move by the father to
obtain control and possession of his son.
But an interesting feature Of the story
remains to be told.
During the afternoon, while the attOr-
neys were talking over the case, and mat
/ tiers were generally unsettled, the mother
came up from Moundsville, went to the
residence Of the husband, watched around
until she saw her son, and getting hold Of
him, she made her way rapidly to the de
pot and took a train in triumph for
/ Mou0dsville, With her child by her side.
What the next movement viii be is IN
certain.

COPYRIGHT 1889.

Over new York there is passing just now
wild wave of excitement. Upper Ten
dom is sgitated beyond expression, and
the maidens and NATIONS of Murray Hill
and the Avenue are in a condition verging
on hysteris. There are thousands Of 9TH
ers, too, who can hardly tell whether they
are on their heads or their heels, nor will
they be able to say exactly which, until
after next Thursday evening. 1t is all on
account Of the New Years ball, which
takes place on that eventual night, at the
Metropolitan Opera House.
When Ward McAllister, in whose active
brain this New Years pantomine and
transformation scene fret originated, men
toned it to some of the leaders of the Four
Hundred, it was secuted as impracticable
at the outset. But it did not require a
prophet to fOresee that, sooner or later,
it must come about just as he
