DR.. TALMAN'S KIDNAPPING.
The Case as Stated by the Wife of Mr. Byers,
the Millionaire Said TO Have Been Kidnapped.

An associate press dispatch from
Pittsburg, Pa, gives the Substance
of the kidnapping case in which DR..
Talman, late of this city, is mixed
up. Mrs. Byers, wife Of the million
aire manufacturer, of that city, takes
legal steps to recover custody of her
husband, and in her petition tells
sensational story. She says that
she has been married to Byers
twenty-five years. About year ago
B. Shields, an employe of Byers,
kidnapped her husband and took
him TO Chicago, where he was plac-
ed in the custody of Dir. w. L. Tai
man. Later he took Byers to Du-
luth and then st. Paul, where he
was placed in hotel under the
charge of Eva Dilty,a trained nurse.
Mrs. Byers located her husband Au-
gust goth, 1898. The party, includ-
ing Mrs. Byers, then returned to
Chicago. Here she alleges, NOR
phine was surreptiously administer
ed by DR.. Talman, and while she
was unconscious her husband was
again carried off. Byers was then
taken from place to place, generally
outside Of the United States, cover
ing altogether about 10000 miles.
Mrs. Byers spent thousands of dol
lars searching for her husband, and
finally located him in Japan. She
sent her agent, Samuel Boyd, for her
husband, and they returned TO San
Francisco. Here they were met by DR..
Talman, who endeavored to regain
possession of Byers. Finally, on
July 80, 1894, an agreement was
signed by all interested parties to
the effect that Byers should return n
to Pittsburg without any interfer-
ence, in the custody of Boyd. AT
st. Joseph Byers was taken from
the train on a writ of habeas corpus,
but at the hearing was remanded in
to Boyd's custody. A few hours
later, Mrs. Byers alleges, II. B.
Shields, Peter l.. Kennedy, John
Davis and DR.. Talman again kid.
mapped Byers aud took him to Chi.
cago, where trace of him was lost.
A few days ago Mrs. Byers found
her husband in the Pennsylvania
hospital for the insane at Philadel.
phia, and he is now under her care.

The handsome premium awarded
on the blind pig exhibited by those

bring it TO the fair, as she is sure the
sightless swine from Darlington is
not finer than Samnfy's.

The Sunday Closing Law.

In view of the recent agitation in
favor of stricter Sunday observance,
it seems timely to publish the law
of this state upon the subject.
There are comparatively few people
who are aware Of the stringency of
our Sunday laws. Section 1896, re-
vised statutes, reads as follows:
"Any person who shall keep open his shop,
warehouse or workhouse, or shall do any
manner of labor, business or work, except
only works of necessity or charity, or be pres
ent at any dancing or public diversion, show
or entertainment, or take any part in any
sport, game or play on the first day Of the
week, shalt be punished by fine not exceed
ing ten dollars and such day shall be under
stood to include the time between the mid
night preceding and the midnight following
the said day. and no civil process will be
served or executed on said day.

Mr.. Woo related it-how they were
subsequently accused of cutting off
their queues and becoming denational-
led, how, in consequence, they were
recalled to their native land, and de-
graded rather than elevated, both by
the people and the government. be-
cause they were foreign in their senti-
ments and habits; and how, at last,
they gradually began to force recogni-
ton through the power of merit alone.
He had now been sent out by the gov

the telegraph ke from Su-chou to

eminent that the employment Of for
eigner in this capacity would only in
crease the power for evil which the ma
tives already attributed to this foreign
innovation. The similarity in the
phrases telegraph pole and dry heaven
had inspired the common belief that
the line of poles then stretching across
the country was responsible for the
longeXisting drought. In one night
several miles of poles were sawed short
of, by the secret order of a banded
conspiracy. After several decapita-
tons. the poles Were now being re-

An American Flag HISS Always Waved
Over It.
"While in Paris a short while ago"
said traveller recently, according to
the Washington Post, EFT occurred to
me that 1t was fitting act to make a
pilgrimage to the tomb of that mustri-
? Gus Frenchman dear to the hearts Of
all American patriots, Marquis de
La Fayette. asked number of peo-
pie before I could find anyone to en-
tighten me as to the spot, but after re-
peated inquiry ascertained its location.
The grave is situated in old Paris,
within the grounds Of convent that
the ancestors Of La Fayette founded,
and where repose the remains Of many
of the French nobility.
1.-The first thing that attracted my
attention IN connection with the hero's
tomb was that above it fioated silken
flag, bearing the Stars and Stripes. 1t
seems that good many years ago an
American gentleman left in his will a
sum of money to be used for the special
purpose of keeping an American flag
forever Hying ABOVE the grave OK La
Fayette. It has done so without inter
mission from the day the will went
into effect, and whenever through the
wear of the elements one flag becomes
unserviceable. a new one straightway
takes its place Through untold cen
turtles the emblem of the country
which in its early struggles for liberty
had his benefcent aid will wave above
his ashes"
