The Child Recovered

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 21-Marian Bleakley, who was kidnapped at To- peka, today was recovered by officers here tonight who arrested three of the alleged kidnapers with the child in their possession. The fugitives were taken from a passenger train upon its arrival here.
 The child was taken to police head quarters and will be returned to her home as soon as possible. Mrs. Edith Barclay and John Gentry were ar rested at the Burlington railroad bridge in this city late tonight. The man, woman and child were passen- gers on a Chicago, Burlington X Quincy train which they had boarded at Atchison, Kansas. The train was stopped at the bridge in accordance with telegraphic orders sent from At chisOn.
 Gentry is an alleged gambler of Kansas City and Mrs. Barclay, until 1907 was the legal foster mother of the child. Her claim that the enfield cannot be taken from her in Mis- souri is based upon the contention that the adoption papers drawn in this state in 1904 have never been annulled by a Missouri court.

THAW IS TREATED
 AS OTHER INMATES STATEMENT BY THE SUPERIN- PENDENT OF WATERMAN. His Mother Has Been Accorded Ex-
 traordinary Privileges.

Matteawan, Aug. 21.-Superintend- ent Lamb of Matteawan asylum said tod6y concerning Mrs. Thaw's treat ment at the hospital: When all the arguments are made. the question re- maining for final settlement is shall Harry k. Thaw submit to the same treatment and accept the same priv ileges as are accorded all other pa tients at the Matteawan state hospital, or shall he have all changed so as to suit his peculiar wishes? At ng time during his residence in the hospital has he suffered any priYatiOn whatever. In fact, every time Thaw left this insti- tuition to take up temporary jail resi- dences, and there, in d measure follow his own rules and inclinations, he has lost weight, only to regain it directly on his return to our care.
 ''The visiting privileges of Mrs. Thaw have been more liberal than she could gain in any other state institution that l Fnow of. It is to be regretted that differences have arisen, but medical officers here can scarcely concede to any patient the sole right of prescrib- ing for himself his own medicine, diet, and rules of conduct.
 It is for lack of reason and judg- ment that Thaw is here It is for lack of reason and judgment that he makes no effort to adjust himself to condi- tions that are by no means unfair or unjust"

Three men who could not satisfactorily ex- plain their presence in McKees Rocks were bodily hurled through a car win dow. When the men fell from the car members of the mob on the street attacked them. The men were dragged to the edge of the viaduct fifty feet below which lay the tracks of the railroad and only escaped being thrown over by the arrival of troopers.

MT and Mrs. Bullard went to New York, Boston and other places along the Atlantic It was a sort of pill grimage for MT Bullard, who wanted to see Birmingham, Mass, where he lived until he was If years of age. He had not been there since and on his return he could not observe that the town had been changed for the better or the worse.
 The journey home was enlivened by one exciting incident. but MT Bullard was the only victim of the excitement. Mrs Bullard was mercifully asleep. After the train left Denver, MT. Bull lard went into the smoker and gave himself up to solid enjoyment. He was still in the smoker when the train arrived at Cheyenne. It was then some time after midnight and he sought the sleeper, but found that it was not there. He made some inquiry and learned that he had not been taken into the confidence of the management of the Union Pacific system. Mir. Bull lard manifested agitation. He found himself separated not only from his wife but also from his pocketbook and even his hat.
 A trainman told him that the sleeper was probably somewhere in the yards and he set out to find it and after a feverish search he discovered it at ? o'clock in the morning and was ad- mitted
