BOY ABDUCTED.
His Father Came to This City and
Recovered the Child.

Several months ago Mabel Saunders
Farewell came TO this city from Fitch
burg, Mass, and located at a cheap lodg-
ing house on South Main street. The fact
that Mrs. Farwell came To town Is not OF
any great Importance but the pretty lit
tie boy, about four years old, who accom-
panied her Is the center OF the great in
terest.
A year or more ago the Massachusetts,
coutr gave the father custody OF the
child and since that time the woman had
made every effort to get possession of
him.
On June she was seen In the vicinity
OF her husbands house at Fitchbugh, and
in the afternoon the child and woman
left for parts unknown. Mrs. Farwell
has made this city her home for the past
two years, and Chief OF Police Tarbox of
Fitchburg wrote to he detectives here,
locate her. This they succeeded i'm doing
and the early morning train today
brought Mr.. Farwell and his wife's
mother accompanied by an officer. They
went to South Main street, and succeeded
In finding the child. There was big
scrimmage," but the father VISA sue
cessful and took his little one to the city
hall, where he showed the proper docu-
ments TO the officials To prove that he
ought to have the child. Mrs. FarweIl is
said to be well connected and her mother
has done all that she could for her and
told her that il she did not desire to live
with her husband she would give her a
home. Her mother, however, wants the
child TO remain in the custody OF the
father,

The Convention Opened.
CLEVELAND, o., June 19.-The Eighth
National Convention Of the League of
Republican CLUBS convened in Music Hall
today, with 2OO0 delegates in the audito-
rum, and the galleries filled with visitors.
The hall was elaborately decorated, +,
as is the Arcade, where the ban
quet is to be given tomorrow night.
After prayer by Rev. s. l.. Darsie, secre-
tsry Humphrey read the call, and ad-
dresses OF welcome were made by Mayor
Robert f. McKisson and President ID. ID.
Woodmanse OF the Ohio League OF Re-
publican clubs. President Tracy OF
Chicago delivered the annual address. IIe
A. ID. Humphrey, VINO has been secre-
tary eight years, ever since the National
League of Republican Clubs was organ
ized, today announces positively he will
not be a candidate for reelection. This
withdrawal is in the interest of General
McAlpin for president, McAlpin and
Humphrey both being from New York.
The silver men had ano her con ference
today and decided to wait until after
the appointment OF the commit
tee on resolutions before taking
any action. IL that committee
is organized against free coinage, they
will insist on the consideration of their
10 to ratio in the con-
vention. Their glittering silver
badges are the most brilliant
paraphernalia in the hall or about the
place and they are still confident
that the party must concede to
their demands to hold the West
ern states. When Secretary Humph-
rey called the states TO ascertain the num-
ber of delegates and slternstes, he found
five states could only report those present
and not the number 10 which they are
entitled. This is against the silver men,
whose delegations were not az full as
those Of the other states.

Not What He Came For.

An Albanian told good story at the
South Carolina clubrooms the other night.
There is, in the former state genial and
popular major, a lawyer of prominence and
great public spirit.
Some years ago a delegation went from
certain city to Washington to work a
great appropriation for the benefit Of Mo.
bile's harbor. The genial major was along,
and he was well PINNED with facts. He
was, moreover full of the belief that what
he did not know about the noble national
game of draw poker was not to be learned
by man.
His social prominence aided his personal
magnetism and his untiring conversation
al powers. Very soon the genial major
was prime favorite In society, as he had
long been In the congressional circle. But
he longed to see the inside Of senatorial
poker. Even as the Scriptural hart Is said
to pant after the water brooks, so did the
majors artistic soul yearn to sit between a
senator and judge with an aceful OH a
jack pot and Gift em going and coming. u
Soon occasion presented itself. The aceful
did not. The genial man dropped his even
ing's pile and smiled himself out.
Next night, like Colonel Ben Adhem's
angel, she came again" Tickle fortune
still frowned, and still the expected acefu
did not come. Once more the genial Ala
bamian's pile grew small rapidly and hide
ously less. Finally pat flush swept his
last dollar, and he rose from the table a
trife hastily.
Don't co." cried the winning senator
chirpily. "Sit in again and try it over"
Gentlemen, you mistake my mission
entirely" retorted the Albanian, back
ing to the door. II wish you to under
stand that came to Washington to get al
appropriation not to make onel"-Atlan

AN OPEN SECRET.


How = Burgomaster Was Fooled by
Smart Tramp.
Eusebius Dollburn, the burgomaster,
had mislaid his spectacles. He had hunted
everywhere for them, but in vain, and now
he sat down at his desk and looked help
lessly at a letter which he had just re-
ceived.
1t was an official communication, he
knew, but he could not make out q single
word of it without his glasses. The par
ish clerk had just gone to the city, and
there was absolutely no one within call to
help the mayor. 1t was very annoying.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door,
and shabby looking man appeared.
Please, penny to buy bread, whined
the stranger.
'To buy schnapps, you mean, F." was the
quick retort Then an idea dawned upon
the speaker. "Come here" he added.
"Can you read writing? Yes? Then will
give you 10 pence for reading this docu-
ment have lost my spectacles and can
not see word"
The beggar took the paper from the bur-
gomaster, looked at the contents, started
with surprise and exclaimed:
"What does your worship think this
says?"
II am waiting for you to tell me what 1t
says" returned the mayor impatiently.
''It comes from the imperial cabinet,
your worship" said the stranger in sol
emn tone, land informs you that, in rec
ognition of your long and faithful service,
you are about to receive patent Of nobil-
ity. And you are commanded to post this
writing, at once, in conspicuous place, SO
that every one may see it.
Eusebius Dollburn was for moment
dumb with amazement. Then he handed
20 pence to the beggar, took the letter,
and rushing to the market place fastened
up the precious document with his own
hands. There he left it, and before many
minutes had passed gaping crowd had
gathered before It, This is what the peo-
pie read:
PRIvATE-OFFICIAL BUSINESS.
