Thomas A. Edison, ir.. is again at
tracting the attention of the New York
papers. Young Edison has been the
central figure in several incidents that
bordered on the scandalous. He has
Kept his father busy getting him out
of the numerous scrapes into which
he has fallen. Edison, ST., Is just now
trying to locate his wandering boy for
the purpose of taking him under his
care again. The young man is well
known in Akron. He is the step-son
of Hon. Lewis Millers daughter, the
present wife of the great inventor.
The New York Morning Telegraph
contains the following in reference to
Young Edison.
Thomas e. Edison, ir., is to be given
a chance to reform. He who took unto
wife one flaxen haired Marie I'uohey
from the coy chorus of the Casino,
spent upon her his patrimony and the
proceeds of the sale of his name and
his fathers, and who was finally left
by her so penniless in Lake George he
was compelled to walk back to New
York, is being sought by his father,
who wishes him to accept the role of
the returned prodigal.
There is one obstacle in the way.
Young Edison cannot be found. For
six weeks his old baunts have. not
known him, for full that long he has
negotiated no loans upon the corners
of the Rialto, the proceeds of which

after the dusty return from the noun

HE HAS DISAPPEARED.
TO be lucid, Edison, jr, has dlsap-
peared, and mis- family is making dcvi-
Gus search for him. His younger broth
er, Williamb L., received yesterday
from their father a telegram saying
to spare neither time nor funds IN
locating the missing one. When caught,
the Wizard would have him led to the
laboratory in Ilewellyn Park, N. j.,
where he will try IL he has the power
to bride his offspring as he has done

consulted Capt. McClusky and subse
ouently Mr.. Pinkerton, giving to both
details and to the last money. Several

"There is only one condition to this

Thomas Edison bitterly opposed the
marriage of his son to Marie Tuohey.
After the deed, he announced for dis
inheritance and refused to receive his
daughter-in-law. Young Edison ap'
pcared not to mind. At that time he
gave promise of being an electrical
genius like his father. He had patent
ed several splendid devices for the
control of the subtle ethereal power,
and had reapcd reward enough there,
from to make him cast no longing eyes
OH the paternal purse. He had 100000
in the bank as royalties from these,
but soon the young inventor was sell
ing his patents themselves for tenth
their real value to meet immediate
expenditures for wine and jewels.
When all rights in his inventions were
gone there remained TO him only the
good name Edison. That, too, he put
upon the market TO the highest bidder.
Purchasers were shrewd and offered
but n 1.-THE of what ii was worth. The
youth was hard pressed and sold. For
patents and name he received 100000.
