ADOprED THEIR OWN son.

A dispatch from Akron La, says in
1876 a careless nurse deserted the per
arnbulator in which she was wheeling
the 2-year-old son of NJ. F. Britton, at
Montreal, Canada, while she went for
a short walk with soldier sweetheart
from The local English garrison. When
she returned her charge was gone. The
Britton family made every effort to re-
cover the little one but without avail.
As has recently developed, 1t was
stolen by man named Myers IN the
hope of securing reward. After the
crime was committed he became so
much alarmed that he never dared &c
claim money from the infants family
and the child reached the age OF years
under his care.
In 1888 Myers died, and for year
his wife kept the boy with her. Sin.
was greatly troubled in her conscience,
and finally resolved to devise some
plan of returning the lad to his family
She feared to GO directly to them with
Ter story, and by way of reaching them
ecured employ mept as domestic II.
tltir household.
Tue BrittopS were without q child OF
their own, and when Mrs. Myers sug
gested that they adopt her SOD, a
bright lad of ten at the time, they read
" fell in with the plan. Mrs. Myers
soon afterward left their employ. She
kept up desultory correspondence
with them for several years and finally
dropped entirely out of sight.
In the meantime the Brittons and
their supposedly adopted son removed
to farm in northern New York and
afterwards to another near Akron. a
few days ago they received letter from
Mrs. Myers, in England. giving full
particulars of the abduction of their
child q years ago and the method she
adopted 70 return him to his own father
and mother.

The lower branch of the Connecticut
legislature passed bill OF Saturday
ms king February u legal holida.,
and to be known as Lincolu Day. A
spirited discussion preceded the adop-
ton of the BILL Mr. Frisbe said if they
continued making holidays there would
not be enough days in the calendar fol-
the observance of all the days. The
people OF Connecticut, he continued,
have not been staying awake nights
looking for legal holidays or any other
kind OF holidays. The only man who
should be honored with holiday was
Washington. Somebody would want
a Grant holiday next.
"And Grover Cleveland holiday,
