for the mind. And | notice that in
these days they get II. Some parents
are so strict, or so preiudiced on this
point that they will not let their children
read anything but the papers and
church works. Such parents may be
sure, II their children are intelligent and
inclined for study, that these very child
rem will by some means or other get
light literature, and II not read openly,
II will be read Just the same. Is II not
better therefore for parents to give such
light food as the mental system Graves,
and control the food supply in this wayl
Then the next question Is, what books
shall we buy for our young sons and
daughters growing up around usp Again
comes this terrible prejudice, which now
takes another form. Says the too.con-
servaiive parent, dull book must be a
moral book. II sermons are moral, are
| they necessarily dulll Again we find
another sort OF parent, who reads a
book himself and II the heroine is made

up honor, wealth, a decent life and even
lite for worthless child, this one grain
OF truth is deemed sufficient TO leaven
the whole tissue of false sentiment and
the book is handed to the glrls and boys
to read. The truth is, that the whole
tone OF a book must be moral and
yirtuous, must be so faithful picture OF
lie that the reader arises with sense
of his own duty stronger within him, or
i Is false. A book that makes girls
think love is worthless unless gilded
by title, or unless that love is proved
by the sacrifice Of honor or life, such a
book is false ut lis core and is n poison
Gus weed 10 plant in the minds Of our
youth. Some of our good parents will
be wanting to get presents for the holt
days !or their girls. Let me offer few
suggestions as TO the selection OF books.
II YOU will buy the books written by
Louisa NJ. Alcott, Miss Mulock, George
Eliot, Walter Scott, Dickens, and Lew
Wallace, you need not fear to see your
children read and re-read them. OF
course these are not the only good
writer's, but, If you must have fiction,
they are OF the best and safest.

WARD WATERBURY FOUND.
THE KIDNAPPED BOY RETURNED BY
HIS ABDUCTORS.

Two Men Arrested on Suspicion-A Rela-
tive of the Lads Father to Be Appre-
hended-The Little Fellows Story of
His Absence From Home.
GREENWICH VILLAGE, CONN, Feb. s.
Especial About 5 o'clock this afternoon
Sheriff Dayton brought two men to the
lookup in this place, accused of the
KIDNAPPING of little Ward Water
bury. They were Samuel Sutherland
and John McCann. A short time
afterward Sheriff Dayton took McCann to
his office and had long talk with him.
THE DISPATCH correspondent had an in
terview with the Sheriff, but he refused
to deny or affirm that McCann turned
States evidence, and said that he
might say something, but would violate
confidence in so doing. But he intimated
that there might be some truth in the state
ment. He said, however, that c. E. Water
bury would be captured before long and
that there was evidence, he thought, enough
to convict McCann and c. E. Waterbury.
THE DISPATCH correspondent, by means
of boy, had an interview with Sutherland
through the Jail grating, in which Suther-
land said that McCann had turned States
evidence and would probably reveal what
he knew. Sutherland said he is innocent
and had nothing whatever to do with the
affair.
The boy was brought home at o'clock
this morning by John Close, of Stanwich,
Conn.,, to whose house he had been brought
at o'clock and left by man to knock in
the door.
The little fellow told how he had been
approached by two tail, plainly-dressed
men about o'clock Monday afternoon, as
he was playing near the schoolhouse They
asked him to show them the way to near
by place, and he consented. After he had
gone short distance, and as soon as they
were out of sight of the school, they told
him roughly he must go with them, and
picked him up and started to the woods.
He did not know where or how far he
went, but only that long after dark that
night he was taken to small house, where
he was kept until last night, when he was
taken to the gate at Mr.. Closes place and
left as already described

HOEY WINS ONE OF HIS SUITS.
A New York Judge Decides a Case in Favor
of the Ex-Express President,

VI tAAo AsA-A4APrOoS fSsiuoHts
NEW YORK, Feb. 3-[Special 1.-The
complaint in the suit of Henry G. Sher-
burne against John Hoey. Clapp Spooner
and Edward E. Taft was dismissed to-day
by Justice Ingraham, of the Supreme Court.
The action was brought to recover about
$780, claimed to be due as plaintiffs
share of scheme by which certain New
England express companies were to be
bought by the Adams Express Company.
Justice Ingraham decides that the alleged
agreement sued on is invalid, as Hoey and
Spooner were trustees of the Adams Ex-
press Company. The Justice says that Hoey
was guilty OF breach of trust, and that
Sherburne has right of action aga inst Taft
for money he advanced to him. Through
this action the disclosures we're made in
volving Hoey.
The decision states:
1t appearing that the agreement under
which the money was paid to Hoey was an
illegal agreement and that the profits which
were realized from the sale of the property
were the results of breach of trust on the
part of Hoey and Spooner, to induce which
they were given an interest, the law will not
aid any parties in the distribution of any of
the proceeds of n fund created by such an
agreement, but leave the parties as it finds
them.

EXPERT NAIL ROBBERY.
POUCHES STOLEN FROM WAGONS ON
HOBOKEN FERRY BOAT.

A Mysterious Rig That Recalls a Similar
ExpIoit-No Clew to the Thieves-An
Organized Gang Believed to Be at
Work
NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-[Special. Seven
pouches of first-class mail matter were
stolen from mail wagons on the Hoboken
ferryboat Orange on Tuesday evening under
circumstances which have led the postofice
authorities to suspect an organized gang
of mail thieves. The investigations
of the inspectors have served to
connect the theft, so far at least as methods
are concerned, with the robbery of last De-
cember, known to the postofice officials as
the Hubbard case. A mysterious express
wagon was one of its features. An equally
mysterious express wagon is one of the
features of Tuesday nights robbery.
A little before o'clock on Tuesday night
two mail wagons left the postofice for the
Hoboken ferry at the foot of Barclay street.
John ]. O'Keefe drove Sc, which was the
smaller, and John Walker drove s. The
mail wagons stood, one behind the other, at
the tail of the boat. There was no wagon
behind them, but a one-horse express wagon
WIlCu IOllO"cu lncHl lUluleUldBelF, OrOV6
alongside. 1t was also the last wagon on its
side of the boat. 1t was driven by two un-
known men.
Arriving at Hoboken, O'Keefe drove to
the Hoboken postoffice and Walker to the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western station.
No one saw the express wagon again.
O'Keefe reported to the Hoboken post
master a pouch of local mail containing
more than 1000 letters and bag of news
papers. But when he unlocked his wagon
be found only the bag of newspapers.
Agent Thatcher, who received the railroad
mail, hastily looked them over, and said:
There are some packages missing here, but
I can't stop now to verify the list"
The train left and Walker hurried back
to New York to report the affair. The
train was reached by telegraph at Dover,
and Thatcher wired back that six pouches
had not been delivered. Four of them were
for Mt. Morris, Elnira, Waverley and
Scranton, respectively. The other two were
for Buffalo, to be there opened and their
contents distributed along the routes to
Scranton and to Emporium.

ACTOR CURTIS ON TRIAL.
THE FIRST TESTIMONY FOR THE
PROSECUTION Is WEAK.

An Italian Saw Officer Grant and His Pris
Saw i Third Party-The Attorneys
Opening speech.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2.-The trial of
Maurice B. Curtis. know on the theatrical
stage as SAINT Of Posen, for the murder of
Police Officer Alexander Grant, began to-
day. The courtroom was crowded with spec
,tators District Attorney Barnes opened
the case by stating that about 1 o'clock on
the morning of September II Officer Grant
was seen to turn into Folsom street from
Fifth street. He had a prisoner under ar
rest, and took the south side of the street.
When near the middle of the block there
was scutfle, followed by three shots. Off
Ger Grant fell to the sidewalk and the pris-
oner escaped and ran to Fifth street and
turned south. He was followed by another
officer and arrested. Upon his wrist were
Offlcer Grants nippers. The prisoner
answered the description of the man who
had done the shooting. During the address
OF Barnes Curtis apparently paid little at
tention to what was being said but his wife,
who sat near him, turned somewhat paler.
Officer Russell was the first witness. After
explaining the diagram locating the scene OF
the shooting, he was followed by Officer
Jaynes, who testified to seeing Grants dead
body on Folsom street shortly after the
tragedy. Augustine Marcoval, an Italian
vendor of tamales, was considered by the
prosecution as one of their most important
witnesses. AS Marcoval did not understand
English well, an interpreter was necessary.
He testified as follows:
I saw Officer Grant on Sixth street at 1910
o'clock on the morning of September IL.
Grant was coming along Sixth street with
man. Two men were going along side by
side. The officer was on the outside. As
they passed me they were talking. They
were not quareling. After they turned the
corner l, of course, lost sight of them and
thought no more of it. There was one other
man on the street corner.
Marcoval admitted he had signed paper
at the request of the police, but he was con-
fused as to his knowledge of its contents.
Curtis was then shown the pistol with
which the killing was done, but denied it
was his. Curtis denied all knowledge of
the shooting, and said he had not been
drinking. He said he had some trouble
with toughs on Fourth street,

The Citizens Intend to Pipe the Fluid Into
New CastIe-The Concern Has Plenty
of Gas and a Good Field in Which to
Operate.
1t is great pity that all the available
Pittsburg that were drilled in last summer
and capped are not connected in one line
and utilized in this city on cold days. There
is still plenty of gas, according to the state
ments of men in the business, b,.s
the new fields have not been developed.
About year ago party of Pittsburg and
New Castle people leased 1 900 acres of land
about five miles from New Castle to drill
for lubricating OIL They put down two
wells, and struck heavy gassers. The wells
have a pressure of 500 pounds and
were capped. Yesterday the own
ers of the gas met in William
Zahn's office, on Fourth avenue, and or
ganized the Citizens Oil and Gas Company

the town with gas for domestic purposes,
and some time ago they had to cut off the
mills, owing to a scarcity of the fuel. They
get some of their gas from the Wildwood
field The New Castle manufacturers are
anxious to return to the use of gas. and will
cooperate with the new company In the
meantime an ordinance has been introduced
in the New Castle Councils for the right of
way in the streets.
The officers of the Citizens Company, as
elected yesterday, are William Smith,
President; William Zahn, Secretary; Robert
Frew, Treasurer, and E. A. McMillen, of
New Castle, Vice President. The other
officers are from Pittsburg, The capital
stock was fixed at $4,000, and an applica-

that the cost of laying the pipes from the
wells to New Castle will range from $25, 900.
