Down In the garden beside the wall,

we must wake to- morrow, be dressed

For blithe and merry and bold, this way,
With music and marching and mirth, they
say,
The Fourth Of July Is comingr
The Trumpet-vine, In the early morn,
Blew q jubilant blast on her shining horn,
The Bluebells soft were ringing.
And pop! pop pop! the paths beside,
Went a hundred buds. a they opened
wide,
Their sweets to the breezes f~inging.
The Makweed's silvery bombshells burst,
And the Thistle her feathery fireworks
FIRST
Sent out to the sunshine dancing.
The gay little Snap-Dragon snapped
away.
And the Flags by the brookside waved all
day,
Where the E~wordgrass bright wa
glancing.
The Scarlet Geranium burned red are:
The Saliva famed in a splendid spirs
AT eve in the dusk uprising;
Thu Sunfower shot out his golden rays,
And the crimson H~ollyhocks stood ablase.
And the Bluebells loud were ringing.
The Firefies, fitting the leaves among.
4. million lamps in the bushes hung:
The crystal dews were beaming:
.nd the tall white Lilies held arrow
Their shining candles, where below
The Myrtle stars were cleaning.

STEALS AWAY HIS LADY LOVE
BOLD GRITTI CARRIES OFF FAIR
ANGELINA AND WEEDS HER.
Coach and Fiery Black Horses Re-
ceive the Captive-Her Rela-
tives Objected.

NEW YORK, August Ga young Loch-
invar. well named Stefano Gritti. came
out Of the east side yesterday. Boldly, In
broad daylight. he abducted his lady love-
Angelina Scheppi.
Ably assisted by three friends, Gritti
seized Angelina on the street, tore her
from her companions, tossed her in a
coach drawn by two fiery black horses
and was away with her.
Far be it from any one to suggest that
the then Miss Angelina. pretty brunette
was a willing victim She tainted most
realistically when her lover and his allies
grabbed her.
But 2 few hours later her brother. Jo-
seph Scheppi. who had opposed the
match, got a postal card from Mrs. Gritti
mailed in New York:
I'VE are married; we'll be home in a
few days.
Angelina lived with her brother Joseph
and their sister at 1913 East SD street
counting Angelina for some months. When
Gritti asked his sisters hand OF Joseph
Scheppi he answered always:
You are just of age, she is only nine
teen. You are too young. Wait a few
years.
After the bold abduction, whose scene
was East End avenue near S1st street,
Angelinas friends hurried to her broth her
Joseph, who excitedly reported her alb.
ton. Detectives were hurried out after
the daring kidnapers: police headquar-
tiers sent out detectives, too.
They are young. so they are fools.
said Brother Joseph last night, display
ing the postal card.

LOCATES LONG MISSING BOY
MOTHER FINDS SON FATHER
STOLE IA YEARS AGO.
Her Baby Is Indentured, But She
May Get His Custody
Through Courts.

NEW YORK, August Elm an interest
ing decision handed down yesterday
Judge Greenbaum, in the supreme court,
ruled in favor Of a mother who sought to
recover her child. said to have been left
with the New York Founding Hospital
fourteen years ago.
The relator, Mrs. Anna Klugman
through her counsel. declared that her
husband. Samuel Okstein. three weeks
after the birth Of their son Joseph. stole
the child from her and left him at the
hospital.
Mrs. Klugman. in her application for a
writ of habeas corpus to compel Sister
Terese Vincent, directress of the asylum,
to produce her child, said that she is a
woman of wealth and has spent large
sums In searching for her boy in the
large cities of the country. She did not
explain why her name is Klugman and
that of her husband Okstein.
She says that she first got trace Of
the child through meeting Okstein. who
she says deserted her shortly after their
marriage. In Brooklyn short time ago.
Judge Greenbaum ruled that the inves-
tigation may go on before a notary pub
lie to be agreed upon by the interested
parties or before a referee whom he will
appoint. Sister Terese. through her coun-
sci. said that the child had been in
dentured when three and half years old,
and that she had lost the records in the
case: In his ruling Judge Greenbaum
said in part:
The statute undoubtedly confers upon
the rounding Hospital the power when
children In Its care shall respectively at
tain proper age. to place them at suit
able employment, and at discretion to bind
out or indenture such children
1T Is rather extraordinary that a child
three and half years old when in
dentured should have been regarded as
at proper age to be bound out or in
dentured as a clerk, apprentice or serv-
ant or to a profession, trade or employ
ment'
w. f. J. Collins. Mrs. Klugman's attor-
ney. refused to divulge his clients ad-
dress. but said that she had remarked
and that her husband is man Of wealth
Through private detectives. he said, they
learned that the child had been bound
out to one u. Blondin," but had been
unable to trace his abode

Maitland pell NELL into the room. As he
recovered he saw Hickey hurting him

too late. True to his pledge never to be
taken alive. Anisty had sent his last bull
let crashing through his own skull.
A cry or horror and CONSERVATION
forced itself from Maitland's throat. The

trace Of pride in his pose. smiled horribly.

And died.
Hickey caught him as he fell. but Matt
land. unheeding. leaped over the body
that had In life resembled him SO fatally,
and entered Bannermans private office.
The gray girl lay at length in corner
of the room. shielded from observation by
one of the desks. Her eyes were closed.
her cheeks were the hue Of death; the
fair. young head was pillowed on one
white and rounded forearm. in an atti-
tude Of natural rest. and the FURNISHED
hair. its heavy coils slipping from their
fastenings. tumbled over Ter head and
shoulders in shimmering glory, like a
splash of living flame.
With a low and bitter cry the young
man dropped to his knees by her side.
In the outer Office the police were as
sembled in excited conclave. blind to all
save the momentous fact Of Anisty's last.
supremely consistent act. For the time
Maitland was utterly alone with his great
and aching loneliness.
After little while timidly he touched
her hand. 1t lay upturned, white slender
fingers like exotic petals curling In upon
the rosy hollow of her palm. And 1t was
soft and warm.
He lifted 1t tenderly in both his own,
and SO held it for a space. brooding. mar
Yelling at its perfection. And inevitably
he bent and touched 1t with his lips. as II
their ardent contact would warm 1t to

The fingers frightened upon his own

that moment he was made conscious OF
the ineffable sweetness Of opening, Won

WEST VIRGINIA,
Lightship Blown to Sea,

Some idea of the force of the recent
West Indian hurricane, which swept the
Atlantic coast last week can be gained
from the fact that the Diamond shoal
lightship. stationed on the coast OF North
Carolina, off Cape Hatteras. was driven
three miles from her station by the fury
of the gale. The lightship Is moored by
heavy anchors and the ship dragged them
as she was forced along by the wind

ceived at the office of the lighthouse in

MEND BONES WITH NAIL.
Unique Operation Is Performed on
Broken Arm by Surgeons.

Broken Arm by Surgeons.
NEW YORK. August 6-Mending a
broken arm with a nail is the extraordi-
sary feat in surgery which has just been
performed successfully by Harlem Hos
pital surgeons. 1t was a plan resorted
to after usual methods had failed and
when the case seemed to be hopeless
Now the limb operated upon is as sound
as ever 1t was.
Charles Nelson, fifteen years old. of No
2614 9Th avenue. was injured in alighting
from a car on July r. The wrist of his
right arm broke with such a severe frac-
ture that one bone Tapped over another.
Nelson was taken Immediately to the
Harlem Hospital and the arm was placed
in a splint. but the bones did not set
When he went back next day, however,
DR.. H. A. HaubOld Of No. 10 West SSth
street and DR.. John F. Connors Of No. pa
West 10Th street, visiting surgeons, ex-
amined the boy and resolved upon the
novel method of treatment. DR.. Charles
Ross. the house Surgeon, aided In the
operation. The lad was put under the
influence Of ether and an incisiOn was
made in the injured arm above the
wrist joint.
What is called the shaft of the bone
was then pried open. and the two over
tapping bones were set together Mean
time a steel nail about one and half
inches long had been carefully sterilized
and medicated. A wise Of cotton and
other material was made for the arm.
and with an ordinary hammer the nail
was driven into the head. piercing both
bones in much the same fashion as two
boards would be fastened together. The
splints were then replaced.
Nelson returned to the hospital yester
day, and 1t was found that his arm was
as strong as 1t had been before the acct
dent A few minutes later the boy was
playing ball in the street.
There is no record Of a similar case,
and forthcoming Issues Of the surgical
journals will contain full accounts Of the
operation and its result.

River View Closes.

River View. which was operated this
summer by the receivers of the Wash
ington and Potomac Steamboat Company,
will be closed for the season with the
excursion of the National Union Club to-
day. Some few additional trips will be
made to the resort during August to take
care Of chartered excursions. but the
steamer Queen Anne will not make daily
trips. This does not mean that the prop
erty is to be sold to the government as
has been reported, but is a business move
of the receivers When the resorts and
boat lines OF the Washington and Poto-
mac Steamboat Company are sold River
View will be transferred with the other
property and probably will be reopened
next year.
