MRS. LOW NDES.
Wife of Maryland's Governor, Engag-
ed in a Pleasing Bit of Philan-
thropy.

Special to the Register.
CUMBERLAND, June 15.-Mrs. Lloyd
Lowndes, wife of the Governor of this
State, whose home is in this city, is
engaged in the beneficial work of cur
ing the whooping cough in a peculiar
way 1t is gravely asserted that If the
mother of twin children will butter a
piece for bread for a patient suffering
with whooping cough the little one will
be speedily relieved upon eating it.
Two of Mrs. Lowndes' sons are twins.
One is prominent business man at
Clarksburg, w. Va. and the other a
lawyer in this city. The whooping
cough is quite prevalent at Annapolis,
hence Mrs Lowndes' troubles. The
door guardian at the mansion is kept
constantly answering to the calls for
pieces of bread and butter. Mrs.
Lowndes is too kind-hearted to refuse
to respond to this curious superstition,
and has used in this way many pounds
of delicious butter made on the Gov
ernor's fine farm near this city. II the
remedy does not cure the disease it at
least affords few pleasant moments
to the unfortunate children Governor
Lowndes, when asked about the eff
cacy of the treatment. laughingly re-
piled: 1--WE are curing all comers.'

THE KIDNAPPING CASE.
Bella Anderson Testifies Against George
Barrow-Barrow In His Own Defense.

Bella Anderson Testifies Against George
Barrow-Barrow In His Own Defense.
NEW YORK, June 15.-Bella Ander-
son, alias Carrie Jones, the nurse girl,
was called to the witness stand to-day
in The trial OF George Barrow for the
kidnapping of Marion Clark. The girl
told of the trip from Brooklyn to
Sloatsburg with the baby. The Bar
rows were in the same car with her, she
said, but they did not sit with her In
other respects she testified to the facts
of the abduction and fight as she had
confessed them after her arrest.
George Barrow went on the stand in
his own behalf. The first he saw of
the Clark baby, he said. was on Mon
day afternoon, May %. when he met his
wife at Jersey City. She had Carrie
Jones and the baby with her. He had
arranged to go to Sloatsburg with his
wife. His wife told him that the baby
was baby that Carrie Jones folks
had sent down from the country. The
three went to Sloatsburg.
When he read about the kidnapping
of Baby Clark he became suspicious
and charged his wife and Carrie Jones
with the crime They broke down, he
said, and confessed. Then he was con-
fused as to what to do. Carrie Jones
refused to take the baby back then, and
he could not call the police in, as he
did not want his wife to be arrested
The direct and cross-examination of
Barrow was finished when court adj
journed. The case will continue to-
morrow.
