Garland decided to send her little boy to the sidewalk to get the fresh air. She put on his over- coat and his toque and his gloves end took him out on to the stoop. Then, giving him a kiss, she told him to run efout for awhile. Jimmie was six vears old, and his mother, who was a selif-reliant woman, had discharged his nurse Jimmie did not return, and his moth- er went out to look:for him. He was not on ths stoop or on the sidewali. Indeed. he was not in sight. His raoti- er wallied hurriedly up and down the street expecting every moment to catch sight of him, but she dld not. Finally she aslked sume children play- ing near by, and they told her that they had seen z little boy—describing Jimmie—3o0 off with a man. Then Mrs. Garland knew that her boy had been kidnapped. By a strong effort of tho will she kept her head and questioned the children closely as to the appearance of the man. They described a small. poorly dressed per- his trousers paiched and his el- in rags. His hair was what they called brown. This is all they could remempber. Mrs. Garland, though in ageny about her boy being an unusually self con- tained woman, very soon brought her- self into 2 condition to think what she should do.

At or neer 11 o'clock a certain In:!hi Mrs. Garland wase to leave the money in a cracker box she would find in a corner farthest from the street. Within two days after the receipt of the money the boy would be pl the street near his home. Mrs, Gar- land wrote back that the conditjons were accepted, except that her boy was to be returned within twelve hours after the depositing of the funds. A l:ltfl' came agreeing to this stipula- tion. Now, on this last letter Mrs. tand noticed a stamp that had e Gar- ident- 1y been placed on another envelope and removed. The stamp was soiled, dicating that some one hands had endeavored in with dirty to make it up a mag- red thumbd Thus far no notice of the kidnap- ping had appeared in any newspaper, and the police were ignorant of Mrs Garfond’s toss. On the appointed night she went to the vacant lot and de- posited Dills to the amount of $3000. The next morning at dawn there was 2 sharp ring at the doorboll. Mrs. Garland ran downstairs and opened the door, and there stood Jimmie. He said he had been left there by a girl. Having got her child back safe ani well, Mrs. Garland went to the office of the police and informed them of the cass, Stating that she had obtained from United States troasury officers $3000 in captured counterfeit $10 and $20 bills. Since they had been paid an ignorant Italian he would not like- 1y know that they were counterfejt and he might be caught trying to pass them. Instructions bearing on the case wers gent out, and a girl was spotted offering one of the bills. She was fol- lowed to a squalid room in a temement uildirs, and every one found there was arrested. All but a few of the counterfeit bills were taken, and a man arrested was found to be the kidnap- per. The children who had seen him take Jimmle away were not able to siate positively that he was the person they had seen coramitting the act, but his thumb marks corresponded with those on the stamp of the letter sent Mrs, Garland, and he received e long prison term.—Boston Record, OTHER VIEW POINTS There w 1l be the usual attempt to tinker h our automobile law-——that itable as the reconvening of the legislature.
