lTwo ORPHANS FIND A GooD>HoME.
Br other and Sister Formally Adopted by
Well Known Family La Derby.

| Well known Family Ia Derby.
1t is often asserted that the world is
growing worse by day and gets no better
by night; that when our parents were
children the milk of human kindness
flowed more freely than now; that deeds OF
humanity were more frequent. and the
care and attention which neighbor be.
slowed upon neighb0r were matters of
everyday occurrence. Butwho ever hears
of any such acts of kindness in these pip
ing times of selfishuess? These cynics
harbor these thoughts. aud revolye them
over in their minds so often, and with
such relish, that they come to
! believe they are true.
People are just as true to each other,
! just as true to their friends. just as true to
themselves today as at any age of the
world.
! The following incident occurred in the
| probate court, and is only one of those
which are brought to light frequently in
the search for news for the daily paper.
A lady living in the town of Derby.
never having been blessed with children of
her own, anu having plenty Of this worlds
goods, decided that she must use what God
others. So she adopted a boy sey-
eral years ago, ard ne has been
reared in charmed circle. All that
a home could b, has fallen to the
lot of this child. The natural mother of
boy mated to a creature in the form of a
man, who was so worthless, that he was
an object of pity to his neighbors. When
the mother died short time ago this
noble-bearted woman took the little girl
also. Then, to be free from annoyance by
the father, she set about to adopt the
child, and wrote letter to the probate
judge explaining the matter to him and
asking his advice and consent in the mat
ter. She followed this up by appearing
personally in court. and with the
consent of her husband adopting
the child and complying with all the
forms of law in such cases. She had had
the little girl in her care for some weeks,
had provided it with good, warm clothing
and made her comfortable in all respects.
Do you think this little 3-year-old was a
charming creature with fair skin, curly
hair, perfect features and well developed
form? On the her hand. it was anything
but prepossessing, being blind in one eve
and almost lncurably lame. There
was nothing whatever attractive about
the child, which brings out
the love of the woman still
more beautifully. The grandfather's
consen: to the adoption OF the child was
given cheerfully, the old gentleman being
apparently glad that she had been received
into such good company
After the papers had been nroDerIy
sigued and the child was formally adopted
the lady made inquiries in regard to an
oculist, with view to having the ci. Ids
eyes treated, and restoring her eyesight if
possible. The good woman and her hus-
band seemed much pleased with their good
fortune in securing the two children.
This worthy couple are residents of
Derby, where the husband is well known
merchant, and leading citizen. Mr.. and
Mrs A. J. Swisher.

known personally to the police of this city
and three of them are now doing time here.
The professionals have an association,
or rather an order, to which they belong,
which is termed "Yegdom."
When a stranger comes up to group of
professionals, they say to him: "Are you a
'Yegdom' p If he says Yes" they will
say, "Who do you know 81 If he does not
show a knowledge OF the professionals,
and prove an acquaintance with reason
able number of the most noted of them
he is regarded at once as a dispised scat
ter" and given the cold shoulder at once
If. on the other hand, he proves himself
all right, the right hand of fellowship is
extended towards him, and he is made at
home.
'TheTe is honor among thieves" This
is a true as well rs an old saying. They
have separate specialties, each class, and
they confne themselves to them most
religiously. Postoffice robbers are per-
fectly reliable outside Of postoffce work,
and nothing can tempt him to interfere
with the business of a booster gopher
or crib worker Boosters follow cir
cuses, and it WAS one of that class that
robbed Finley Ross money drawer last
summer while the staller bad the clerk in
a rear room showing him bedstead.
There are many other classes OF men who
come within the lettering and vagrancy
ordinances, but space does not permit of
longer list at present.
If Governor dwellings, order is obeyed,
it will be heard Of by the professionals
all over the country, and the state will be
deluged with criminals inside of six
months.
