BERKELE’ May 11.—Two strange and conflicting stories are told regarding the disappearance of seven-year-old Harry Bird from his home in South Berkeley on Tuesday. One is a story of motherly protection for an flly treated child, the ler a story of threatened kidnaping. The child was this morning taken from the hcme of J. J. Rose, 2027 Lorena street, by Mrs. L. A. Prescott, president of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to n in this county. Bird, the father of the child, i Ros: home at He said g y enticed from home. I don’t know why, but he was, and he was M. kept in confinement by Mrs. J. J. Rose right across the street from us all the while we were hunting for him, from ‘fuesday afternoon till this morning. This is the ¥y we found him after keeping the police ail around the bay stirred up 2nd going nearly crazy ourselves: Miss Lombard, the principal of the school where Harry attended, told my wife yes- terday that Rose knew where the child was. My wife went there, but they would not let her in. Then she came over to San Francisco and told me what she had heard. rattan rockers, $350 up- aas, 408 1ith st., Oakland. * Demands His Boy. “I immediately left my place of business and the citizen escort will Vernon avenue to Bay Webster street, south Nineteenth or Durant Nineteenth to Jackson Jackson to Thirteenth Thirteenth to Harrison move down place, thence to on Webster to street, east on street, south on street, west on street, morth on and came over. I went to the house and demanded the boy. Theys denfed all knowledge of his whereabouts, though he was there at that very time. Mrs. Rose ran screaming across the street to Dr. Allen’s house. I followed her, and she finally told me that Mrs. M. J. White at the Parrott building in San Franclsco knew where the boy was. I immediately recrcssed to San Francisco and the police helped me find Mrs. White, wife of the secretary of the Children’s Aid Soclety, though the hour was then very late. Mrs. ‘White told me that a womon, apparently fnsane, came into the office, and, glving the name of Rose, sald shé had a boy concealed in her house. “T came back and this morning went with Marshal Kerns to Dr. Allen’s house, He denied all knowledge of the affair, as did the Roses. Then I went to Oakland and got Mrs, Prescott. She came out and in twenty minutes found my child in Rose’'s house.” Mrs. Rose told a different story. She sald: *‘Last Tuesday morning when my husband got up at 5 o'clock to go to the city he found Harry shivering on the peich. The child was cold and hungry. He sald he had slept in the Ashby-avenue railroad station-house all night. This we can prove, for we have witnesses who saw him. Child Leaves Home. “I gave the child breakfast and then sent him to school. When he returned hcme his mother locked him up and went away. At 5 o'clock his elder brother let him out and he came to me. Knowing how cruelly he was treated at home, I kept him and\was working with the So- ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children of San Francisco to have him taken from his parents, when Mrs, Pres- cott came. His father has threatened me with_San Quentin for keeping the child, but I could not bear the thought of let- ting them beat him.” Mrs. Rose declared that the cruel treat- ment of the child was a matter of noto- riety about the neighborhood. She 'said that on one occasion he had been forced to sleep out in the open all night in a rainstorm.

Two Happy Couples Depart for Tennessee After / Double Wedding. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 11 Comrades in the Philippines, two Ten- nessee Volunteers, Willis G. Jones and James E. Fathera, after meéeting and van- quishing the grim sisters war and disease in the tropics, met and were taken captive by the sweet sisters Marfe and Mary Cripps of ' San Francisco. To-night the soldier boys left for their sunny homes in Nashville, taking the sisters as their brides back to the old folks, who are pre- paring for them a Southern welcome by the banks of the Cumberland. Their romance began one day when the Misses Cripps, with bevies of other charming maidens, were visiting the camp of the Tennesseeans at the Presidio be- fore the command was taken to the is ands. A mutual friend introduced them and the acquaintance ripened rapidly into love, and love to plighted troth. The sis- ters vowed to remain true to their soldier lovers, who swore in turn to come back to them if spared by storm and fever and bullets. They passed through the campaign in safety and have just been mustered out of the service. True to their promise, they no sooner arrived in San Francisco than they sought out the waiting maidens and found that they, too, had remained unchanged. So when the two campaigners had settled with Uncle Sam they lost no time in getting tickets for four on_to- night's east-bound overland. Then they crossed the bay, Private Jones with Mary and Private Fathera with Marle, and had a double wedding performed by Justice Quinn. After the two knots were tied the happy couples went to the pler and start- ed on the long trip half-way across the continent to Nashville. — NATIONAL LBAGUE.
