GRANDMOTHER ARRESTED
Charged With kidnapping Ter Daueh-
ter's Children.

washington, D. C., June s.-Mrs.
Catherine Lennon. 81 years Of age, wife
Of George Lennon of GAINESVILLE, Ohio,
has been arrested here upon her arrival
from Philadelphia on the request Of the
superintendent Of police of that city,
who asked that she be held on the charge
Of kidnapping Mrs. Lennon had with her
two grandchildren, Bessie Doughertv
and Violet Collevan, the latter three
years old. She was alleged to have kid
naped Violet. She says her daughter,
who was the wife of George Collevan,
the proprietor Of a hotel in Philadelphia
died little more than a year ago The
child was given her by her daughter
on her deathbed, with the request that
she care for and keep her. The hus-
band she added, made no objections
and she took the baby with her to Ohio.
Since the mothers death she has de-
voted her time between GAINESVILLE and
Philadelphia in order that the little girl
might be with her father part of the
time Her plan was to return to Ohio
about this time, and when she left Phil
adelphia she says she thought it strange
that Collevan did not appear to say good
bye. She did not seen him and was not
aware that any trouble awaited her un-
til the officers approached her at the
train. While loath to give up the little
girl, Mrs. Lennon said she wished to
abide by the law. She returned to Phil
adelphia with two officers

our policy to employ only the most
efficient. regardless of social or other
considerations OF course, when two
teachers are believed to the equally eff
hclent, we would give preference to the
ones who are in financial need TIC
question of hiring married women teach
ers has been before the board for some
time, and we had to deal with It the
best we could. 1t seems no more than
right that married women whose hus-
bands are amply able to support them
should give way to girls who have their
own livelihood to look after.
IN explaining why these persons were
not depOsed, like the rest because they
are married, the members of the board
ofTer weak explanations Of their star
chamber acts When asked why Mrs.
NJ. W. Miller Of Quincy school il North
Topeka. who is the wife OF ex-CounciI-
man Miller, was not deposed because
she was married, Mr.. p. L Bonebrake
said. Because it is different in her
case. Her husband is employed in North
Topeka at a salary Of $50 month. She
IS trying to educate her son out of the
money she makes as a teacher
The members offer in explanation for
the retention of Mrs. Matte Page, col
ored, that her husband who at present.
IS teacher in the city schools, is going
10 attend a medical college and that
she needs the position Perhaps some of
the other married women who were de-
posed need their positions as much as
Mrs Page Mr.. Matthews and Mr.. Rodg-
ers opposed the dismissal of a few Of
the married women unless ali were dis
missed.
The excuse of the members Of the
board that some teachers were dropped
because they do not need the positions
from a financial standpoint is weak as
the board has turned right round and
employed at least two teachers for the
coming year who come from wealthy
families and do not need the positions.
