band with which he carried it would serve tbe
Me purpose, and said thumb he was Just
about In sorting when a policeman approached.
A way from Ms troubles the Mayor soon saw,
anil.calllDS the officer, relinquished bis Infantile
chsree. lie nave orders to have Is conveyed to
the Central Station, there cared for, and with a
It-ehng of relief- jumped Into a Fifth streetcar.
Bat be conldn't keep quiet. A passenger la the
ar, a gentlemen whom be rccognlzod, was soon
made acquainted with the disoovery
and Us circnnistanoes, and the two
ondoltd together. A well-dressed lady sat
opposite them flanked by two chubby boys.
She wss a Camdenltess so she said and volun
teered tbe iuf-jr inution that she was happy la
bavlng given birth to live healthy sons.
A little blusb, a little congh, a little
hesitation, and then fclie added,
"Is the child you found, yonr Honor,
boy or girl ? It it Is tbe latter, from henoefori h
Itls mine!'' Uls Honor was nonplused. "He
ouuldn't tell." I5y t his time t bo car bad reached
tbe corner of Filth and Chesnat streets; but
Jst as his Honor was about Issuing to eo up
aialrs into bis office, the lady asked, "Where
can I mid the babyT" Tragically his Honor
responded, "Follow me, and you shall be satis
fied." Tbey left the car Arm-in-arm, the two little
hobby boys bring np the rear, and descended
iato the "Central Htatlon." Though we did not
loilow them, we have no doubt that tbe little
at ranger was found all right, and tnat tt is now

UDder the trunk of an ash tree, eighteen Indies
In diameter, luc poor man could hmaiy
articulate. One tilgh was terribly brokau, ttia
bone protruding and the wound bleediug. Tae
other letr was crossed ovir tne broken one, a:id
badly bruised. Other p;irts of his boJy were
also injured. In bis despair the poor man hd

Immediately io work to rescue the poor mm,
