Margaret Taylor, of the finding in Italy Of
her sister Clara and her little niece. she
was greatly affected and impulsiVely told
the story Of the causes which led up to the
abduction. Between sobs she said that there
was no plan to abduct the little one, but
that her taking away was the result Of
the mother having taught little Margaret
impure practices. The two sisters, with
their mother, had taken the child out for

oNAwA, Ia, May T-(speciaI Telegram,)
Roy Mcnamara. the Grinnell student who
disappeared March IT. accompanied by his
father, Rev. J. E. Mcnamara, arrived home
at 4 o'clock this afternoon on the Des
Moines passenger. All reports that he had
arrived before are erroneous.
Roy said that he was feeling better and
gradually getting stronger. but was yet
far from we'll. His appearance denotes that
he has suffered considerably and instead Of
being fifteen pounds heavier than when he
started away, he Is lighter.
He says that he had no recollection Of
leaving Grinnell, his mind being a blank
for many days. All that he can remember
Is that he thought he must press on and
keep going on and on. He did not recover
his senses until he arrived at Indianapolis,
when he applied for work.
He had been studying very hard for some
time before going away and not feeling
we'll. and his condition Is plainly the re-
suit Of oyerstudy. He will take a Ions
rest at home and with careful nursing
hopes TO regain his health.

and coffee growers are complaining of hard

and branch railroads running right from
the coffee houses on the large plantations

tnaugurated a movement looking to the or
gantzation of a state association Of park COM
missioners. With this end in view Secre-
tary Schmidt has written to practically all
the park boards in the state and the answers
so far received show that the proposition ia
not only endorsed, but has been received
enthusiastically and the prospects for the or
Banization OF such an association In the
near future are OF the brightest.
As soon as answers are received from
the other boards written to steps will be
taken to form the association at a meeting
to be held In one Of the larger cities, prob
ably Des Moines.

the park finances which proved most dis
appointing to the board and will prevent

Decedent as strong

NEW YORK. May THE arrangements

what was left him by his family, and he
spent a lot in charity and for other pur-
poses. The chapel he gave the Dunwoodie
seminary cost him SEC, 900. All the general
property, such as the cathedral, the rec
tory, the archepiscopal residence and other

gram was then sent to Archbishop Ryan at

champions Of the militant church claimed
by death. Archbishop Corrigan was very
affectionste to US. We esteemed and loved
him greatly"
The pope then retired to his private
