Brooklyn, on their way to Tampa, Fla.
passed through this city to-day. Con-

out Of the window. She was all impa-
thence for the train to come TO a stand

We'll embrace and a small basket full
of things such as a mother alone knows

The train, instead of stopping how
ever seemed to get up extra speed and

her boy carried from her, and ran after
the train trying to get the basket tohim.
She failed in her purpose and became
hysterlcal and was carried fainting into
the station-master's office by her hus-

she was revived a cab was called and
