thousand dollars from two banks and he has
not been heard from since. He was in business
as a house painter and was prosperous. He

wife and boy Centre Square He had
been in Waterbury twenty years and was re-
lated to many families. Many years ago he
married Miss z. French. Of New-Yor City.
The fact that the boy had been abandoned only
adds mystery to his fathers absence. He told
a close friend that he going to Pasadena
and would take Harold with him.
There is some mystery about Harold, the
name of whom the abandoned wife speaks with
caution. Those who know Reed here say the
lad must be telling the truth about the kid

ever the duty Of the good citizens of

actment of legislation inimical to the
state university, and the democratic

they be elected, would be most likely
to vote with him. No republican can

eminent statlsticians, who estimate
that the United Kingdom uses SOC, 000,-

account for this great number. About
