FEAR OF KIDNAPPING

Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson Lawson, 1880
Oak St, were thrown into a panic

year-old son Edward, mysteriously dis
appeared. Police, neighbors and rel

late in the afternoon the boy was
found several blocks from his home
wandering along the sidewalk.

which had been seen near the Lawson
home earlier in the morning had stolen
the child and police took steps to find
them. 1t was learned that they left
the city and word was sent to sur
rounding towns to stop them. The child
evidently wandered away while his
mother was busy with her washing

peared today to be the rock upon
which peace negotiations between the
United States and Mexico were DOOM
ed to split.
Carrying out his announced de-
termination CarranZa has replied TO
the "A. b. c." mediation commission
declaring his refusal to cOuntenance
any overtures TO which Dictator
Huerta is recognized as party. Nor
will Carranza join in any diplomatic
dealings designed to curtail the free
dom of the northern rebels in making

II was admitted here today that
Pancho Villa, military leader OF the
rebels. is. more emphatically than
ever, the man OF the hour in northern
Mexico.
That Pres. Wilson never will recOg-

great display of the military and
naval strength of the United States
throughout Mexico. if necessary in
an effort TO break the dictator's power
and force him TO retire, was asserted
today by a high naval officer in the
confidence Of the administration.
The peace program of the pres

for obvious reasons would not per
nit the use of his name. is about a
follows:
Won't Recognize Huerta.

velop new Industries is afforded by
tin. The benefit which the United
States may obtain from the present
situation is the establishment OF n tin
smelter in this country in which to
smelt Bolivian tin ores and such small
output OF American ore as is produced.
The tin concentrates reduced last year
in the United States were all shipped
TO British shelters.
At the present time between 10000
and 10000 tons OF tin concentrates,
carrying more than 10000 tons of me-
tallic tin, are shipped each year from
Bolivia to Europe for smelling. The
United tSates imported several times
that amount of metallic tin last year
and would easily absorb all the tin
smelted from the Bolivian ore. The
smelling OF Bolivian ores presents no
difficulties that American metallur-
gists cannot readily overcome, and Bo-
livian ores will now be easier to buy.
II ships can be found to carry the ore
an opportunity seems to be presented
FOR Americans to begin purchasing
ores that have hitherto gone to Eu-

We're connected with the asylum when
was sent there and had advertised for
| several of them. An elderly woman
living in the country not far from Har-
risburg answered the advertisement.
Mr.. Sawyer learned from her that she
was at the asylum from 1862 to 1864
that during that time a girl baby was
brought in by a Union soldier. That
was all she could remember. for she
had left the institution soon after the
child was received.
l think Mr.. Sawyer took more inter-
est in the matter than l. Perhaps it
was n detective instinct in him that
led him to busy himself about it. At
any rate. his curiosity was aroused,
and he kept thinking about it much of
the time.
You're war baby, Bet" he would
say TO me. ~ have an idea that you
got lost somehow during the war.
Maybe your father was Il soldier and
got killed and a comrade took his lit
tie girl and not being in position to
care for her left her. at the asylum.
This theory is supported by the fact
that about the time you We're taken

will establish your identity and don't
you forget it"

About fifteen years after its close
those who were interested in it began

struggle, they had nothing 70 say and

the brunt of plumbers committed by
those who had lived to tell their stories.
1t was about this time. believe, that
people began to take an interest in the
battletields which now are made ma

years old there was gathering or vsT-

they make an excursion and visit the
