The story of the kidnapping of the

How the Child Was Stolen.
Mr. and Mrs. Guthrle had boon di
vorced , she to have the daughter and
lie to pay $20 per month alimony for
the support of the child. It was
agreed , however , that the father waste
to see the child when ho desired.
During the holidays last year Mrs
Guthrie was in Chicago , where her
daughter was in a convent . The father
thor desired to sec the little girl and
she was brought to him by Mrs. Guth
rie. While they were talking , the
father picked up the child In his arms
and walked to the door. The mother
believed he was leaving and Intended
to carry the little girl only to the door
way. Instead , however , he walked
out of doors and quickly broke into
a run.
The mother followed when she real
ized what had happened. But the
man was quicker on his feet. He ran
to the corner of the block , turned Into
a side street , jumped into a 'waiting
cab and was gone when Mrs. Guthrie
arrived. Prom that moment until Sat
urday not a word was learned of the
father or child.
Mr. Gull1 rie had married after the
divorce. lie was finally located at
Guthrle , Pa. , and the child given up
Mrs. Guthrie had sold nearly every
thing she owned for the purpose of
continuing the search for her stolen
child.

NORFOLK MAY BE IN LEAGUE.
State Baseball Association Is to be
Formed Five Now In.
Lincoln News : A partial canvass
: > f the baseball situation In various
Nebraska cities as a preliminary to
ho formation of a state league la 1907
nducos the prediction that such an
organization will soon make Its bow.
C. S. Sherman , a newspaper man In
this city , has just returned from a ten
lays' tour of various cities and towns
and reports a healthy Interest In the
state league project. The five cities
reasonably certain of being Included
In the circuit are Beatrice , Hastings ,
Grand Island , Kearney and Fremont.
For the sixth city , South Omaha , Falls
City , Falrbury , Columbus , York , Nor
folk and Superior have been suggested
as possibilities , and the town offering
the host Inducements as to financial
support will likely be chosen to complete
pleto the circuit. Council Bluffs , Iowa ,
Is also a possibility.
The present plans provide for a sal
ary limit of $800 or $900 n month , each
of the clubs to deposit a sum of mon
ey as a guarantee to finish the season
the deposit also serving as a forfell
In case any of the clubs exceed the
limit of salaries fixed by the league
A meeting to perfect a preliminary
organization is to be called In Lincoln
within the next two weeks. At this
meeting officers for the league are to
be chosen and necessary action taken
to apply for admission to the nationa
association of baseball leagues. This
latter step will permit the various
cities to begin the work of securing
managers and signing players , full tl
tie to the services of the latter being
fixed by the protection afforded by the
agreement governing the national as
soclatlon.
Practically all of the five cities o
Beatrice , Hastings , Grand Island
Kearney and Fremont have had their
fill of Independent ball. No sooner is
a strong club organized than it is raid
ed by the leagues , which hire the more
capable players and leave the Indepen
dents to whistle for their trouble am
also the money spent In assembling
their teams. Operating under a mod
est salary limit , under the national
agreement and with a compact circuit
the chief objections to independent
ball would be overcome. Meanwhile
the rivalry engendered by a state
league would attract crowds to the
games and work for the general betterment
torment of baseball in all of the towns
Included in the circuit.
THE MATING INSTINCT.
Not a Proof of Imbecility for an Old
Man to Take a Bride.
Sioux City , Iowa , Oct. 1. "Yielding
to the mating Instinct , " even at the
age of 77 years with one's first wife ,
with whom ono had lived 52 years ,
cannot be accepted as proof of Imbe
cility , declares the Iowa supreme
court.
By this decision Charity Dean of
Corro Gordo county , retains posses
sion of a $30,000 Iowa /arm bequeathed
her a year after her marriage to
George Dean , the before mentioned
septuagenarian. The latter's two sons ,
Frank and Arthur Dean , tried to break
the will .leaving the 50-year-old bride
without a home. Judge Ladd in writIng -
Ing the decision saysT
"His hasty marriage should not
stamp him ns peculiarly weak-minded.
Undoubtedly it was in bad taste and
might well have been criticised by
the sons of his former wife , with whom
ho had lived fifty-two years , and by
his neighbors. But yielding to the
mating instinct , even under such cir
cumstances , cannot be regarded ns
conclusive proof of Imbecility. "

Rev. Charles E. Dcuel , Known In Nor

well known In Norfolk , who riitod
for some time last HUIIIIIUM nt Iho
homo of his father-in-law , Rov. .1. C.
S. Wellls of this city. The dispatch
says :
IH'causo the coHtumo of Miss Linn ,
Mao I ( nines fell several degrees below
that Ktandard of completeness set by
the cations of the Episcopal church ,
the union of two loving souls was
nearly stopped at Edgowator on
Wednesday evening.
Miss I { allies was not herself one of
the loving souls ; at least , she was not
one of the contracting parties to the
Impending marriage.
She Is the organist In the Presbyte
rian church In the north shore suburb
and had consented to act In the Epis
copal church at the special request of
Miss Margaret Hurr , daughter of Dr.
Burr , and Alfred Johnson , who had
arranged to be married on that even
ing.
Roili Miss Hurr and Mr. Benson are
Presbyterians , but , owing to the fact
that the Presbyterian church Is under
going repairs , it was impossible to use
It for the ceremony , and rather than
delay the Interesting event It was
agreed to use the Episcopal edifice in
Kdgewater.
Everything went smoothly up to the
point where it became incumbent upon
Miss Unities to take her place at the
organ.
The bride , In the custody of her fa
ther , had arrive' ) on the scene. The
groom stood nt thnltur , supported by
the best man.
AH that wns noccary was a llttlo
music to start the bridal party on its
journey to the altar.
The Rev. Richard Rowley of Rogers
Park was waiting at the church and
Miss Halnes shulllod her music , dis
carded her wrap , and prepared to
leave the study for the choir loft.
The young woman was prettily clad
In a decollette gown and was without
a hat. She was about to leave the
study when Rev , Charles E. Deuel.
the rector of the Episcopal church ,
cleared his throat and said :
"My dear young lady , where are the
rest of your clothes ? "
Miss Httlnes paused aghast , and hur
ried to a , ilrror. She carefully In
spected ho . . . . . - found It all pres
ent , and stated ns muci. ' - the clergy

Mr. Deuel wns visibly embarrassed ,
but quite firm ,
"You must not enter the church ,
nor the choir loft like that , " ho snld.
"It Is contrary to the rules of the
church. "
Miss Halnes. knowing that all things
were ready for the marriage and feel
ing within herself that all was well
with her , made a quick sidestep and
endeavored to reach the door of the
stairs.
Gently but firmly , Mr. Deuel re
strained her , and In spite of her In-
dlguntlon succeeded In explaining that ,
while it might be perfectly right and
eminently proper for n woman to ap-
