There was mete excitement In this city
en Friday ever tbe ebseces of little Berth
Meek, the child who se mysteriously dis
appeared from the plcnle grounds at Pen
ryn en Thursday, then anything that
hit occurred In long time. It far.
nlshed the principal tople of conver
sation cm the streets nil day, end
the people were heppy at bavlng aeme
thing new te talk about. The mystery
wasaolvedln the evening, however, and
everybody seemed pleated when the newe
eimetbat tba child bad been found" alive
and well and waa restored te Its mother.
When It waa learned that the child had
tunn kidnareed by an old vllllan, the
wrath of the people knew no beunda and
everywhere large crewda were gathered
dlaeuulng the occurrence.
A STBANOB STOnV.
The atery of the little gtrl'a recovery la
one filled with lntorest and romance, and
It will be a long time before tbe occurrence
la erased from the memory of the public.
Early en Friday morning, a epeelal train,
bringing twenty men from Lebanen,rrlvcd
at the park. Tula was a prty of searchers
that had been erganlxad by the manage
ment of the r ark and railroad oempany,acd
they were at once put te work en a search
that oentloned throughout the whole day.
Between 12 end 2 o'e'.ook p m. an me
beats en the lske were manned and men,
with rakes In their band, nuking searcbea
In the water, kept rowing about. This waa
II te no purpose, however, and thp child
was still undiscovered.
The first person te make hla appear appear
anee en the plcnle grounds en Friday
morning was Kev. Themas Thompson,
of the Preabytcrtan Memerial chureb,
of this city. He had attended the
plcnle of the day berere, ana be inter
eeted did he become la the search for the
ebltd that he temslned in the weeds until
a late hour at night He slept at a farm
house near the park and was up early In
the morning ready te de all In hla power
te solve the mystery of the child's dliap dliap
pearance. When he went te the grounds
everything was qalet, no ene being astir.
While the reverend gentleman was
walking) arennd the park he came
across a atrange old man, whom he
afterwards learned te be William Smith, a
resident of the neighborhood, and the man
who It has Blnee been found eiused the
little child's disappearance. The old fellow
Is rather srasll of stature, but well built
He has a hitch In one of his legs and walks
with a peculiar gait He la ever CO years of
age and has a shrunken faea with bristly
whiskers en his chin.
SMITH, THE VILLAIN'.
When Mr. Thompson met Smith he was
wearing a bread-brimmed blaek alench
hat and In his hand carried a basket the con
tents of which was oevored with ahandker
chlef.Smlth seemed te be wandering arennd
the grounds, but he appeared very gar.
raleus and anxious te talk and he and Mr.
Thompson seen became engaged In a con
versation. Quite naturally their talk
drifted upon the disappearance of the little
girl en the night before. Smith said he
knew where the child waa and could
find her. Mr. Thompson asked blm
why he did net de se at ence
and atop any further trouble or
annoyanen. Smith said he needed help
and Mr. Thompson asked him what kind.
The old man, In a business llke way, said
that Mr. Jacksen, the superintendent of the
park, would pay a large sum of money
for the return of the lest child and he de
aired te get some of it Mr. Thompson cut
the old fellow rather short during that con.
venation, yet he had a belief that the man
knew mucn mero than he was willing te
tell.
KUSVICI0N9 AROUSED,
Soen afterwards tbe special train came In
from Lano'aater bringing a large crowd of
people te attend the picnic of the .Reformed
Sunday school?. The grounds were seen
tilled with a lively orewd of pleasure
seekers, and the principal subject of talk
among them wits the lest child. Old Smith
bung around and during the morning
he approaehed Mr. Thompson sev
eral times and always referred
In his conversation te tbe missing
girt He spoke of tbe case of Charlie Ress,
the missing Philadelphia boy, and seemed
te be familiar with It This Increased the
suspicion of Mr. Thompson. Later Smith
poke te a number of people about the
missing girl. He said he had a magle
glass In bis basket by tbe aid of which he
could locate tbe ehild. He exhibited this
glass, which was a Bmall, old-fashioned
mirror, te quite a number of people. At
last everybody began te mistrust blm, and
the msj ilty of the peeple en tbe grounds
thought he was either a crank or he knew
ometbieg of the missing girl. He was
surrounded by crowds wherever he went,
and he always produeed his mtgle glaaf.
T00B1NO INTO THE MAO.IO MIRROR,
He spoke te se many people en the sub sub sub
Jeotef the girl that finally bouie became
interested in his talk. He said that If he
could find any one in the weeds who oeuld
leek Inte his glass and see the lest child be
would be able te find her.but he must have
dark place te de his work. About four
o'elook In the afternoon a pirty went Inte
a passenger car whieh was standing en tbe
aiding, along with the old man, te tee what
hs would de. Thsy were Mrs. Beek, tbe
missing ehlld's mother, Harry 0. Moere,
Jeseph Shirk and Emanuel Wolf, of this
elty. Tbe old man lifted tbe oleth etfthe
basket and drew therefrem a black shawl
and the magic mirror. The car was made
quite dark and Smith then said that
he wanted aeme one who could leek In tbe
glass and see the lest eblid and then every
thing would be light.
These present were each taken away and
In private were given a leek at the glass,
hut none were able te see the vision. Fi
nally Hsrry W. Bucklu, of the Jixamintr,
who was en the ground, was Cilled into
he car. The old man took him aside and
BuckMHB upon looking In the glass told him
that he saw" the outlines of a child sleeping
in the weeds. Of course the reporter saw
nothing of the kind, but It is net always
necessary te tell the exaet truth in
cases of this kind. The old roan asked
Bucklus In which dlrectl in Irem the lake the
child was lying and whether he eauld lead
him te her, but ttiese questions btaggered
the reporter. Superintendent Neil, of the
railroad, next took a peep at Ibe glass and
also said that he could bee the child, but
he could net lead tbe way te It.
Smith then said that he mint find some
ene who was familiar with the mountains,
but such a man was net te be bad. He
aald lurtber that the men who leek la
gUsses snd find things are new all dead.
Several -ether part.'ei then looked In the
glass, but sta tbey could see nothing and
finally Smith lett the cat carrying hla
buket
THE OLD MAN STILT. RESTLESS,
he old man seemed restless and very
Anxious te tell something. He spoke te
several parties about a reward that would
beeHercd for the child and seemed very
aislena te procure It, Superintendent
Men, after a time, want te blm and aeked
If tut would aeeept $500 te bring back tba
child. This seemed te please Smith, who
aid that be would find tbe girl but would
net take any money until be bad re
stored her. He told Mr. Net! In a confi
dential way that alter he had recovered the
girl they (ha and Ntfl) would divide the
amount of reward.
The old man still continued te talk about
the reward and by this time everybody
waa watehlng him. At about 0 o'clock
In the evening, Btnlth met Jeseph Shlik,
of this city, and Geerge Hauer, of Leba
non, who la telegraph operator at the park,
near the lake, He at once took them Inte
hla confidence, saying that he wenld find
tbe girl and they would eiptnre and di
vide the reward, Tbe three then started
and walked down the railroad towards Mt,
Hepe, the old man leading the way.
TUB LOST CHILD 1'OUND.
When they had reached a paint about a
quarter efa mile from tbe lake the telegraph
operator noticed aeme whlte object In tbe
bushes. Seme distance ahead of the party
were several railroad men, and they were
attracted by cries whleb sounded te them
like that of a child In distress. William
DKzlcr and GOergs Malllnger ran te the
spot where the operator had seen the
object, and there, lying In a de
pression In tbe gieund, they found
the lest little girl under some brush,
which had been placed ever her. Old
Smith seemed greatly annoyed at the
dlsoevory, and he made an effort t) get
away. Streng hands were laid upon him,
however, and although be ploaJed hard te
get off, and declared that he was Inno
cent of any wrong, he was given Inte the
'eharge of Special Oflleer Simuel 8 wank, of
the park grounds.
DEMONSTRATIONS OF JOT,
The long-lest girl wasearrled In triumph
te tbe park, and aoenthe crowd .was cry
ing, "She Is found," "she Is found," The
people seemed almost wild with delight,
and tbe mother or tbe little one oeuld
scarcely control herself, se filled was she
with emotion. Everybody rejoleed, and
the little child waa kissed, hugged and pet
ted by all. She was taken te the
danelng pavilion, where the people formed
In line and ahoek her by tbe band. A
thanksgiving meeting was organized and
Rev. Mr. Thompson made a very affeetlng
prayer. It was a remarkable acene and
one that will never be effaced from the
memory of these who witnessed It. Dar
ing tbe excitement some thoughtful person
took advantage of the orewd and passed
around a hat. In It no less than $54 was
dropped for the benefit of the ehlld's faml
ly. This fund was afterwards Increased
te 157 51 and It still continues te grew at
the Lancaster County bank, where con
tributions continue te pour In.
When the little girl was recovered her
banda were marked from the pricks of
briars In tbe bushes where she had lain.
Her lips were blue, and altogether she
seemed mere dead than alive for a time.
She recovered greatly, however, In the
company of her mother and kind friends,
although greatly excited.
TIIB CHILD IDENTIFIES SMITH.
When old Smith was brought before the
child she said that he was tbe man who bad
stolen her, Mrs. Beck and her little daugh
ter left the park en the special train at 7
o'clock. On the way te town tbe eblld
eemed te forget her trouble and waa in a
geed humor. She was quite talkative and
lnbercbild-llke way told tbe atery of her
absence.
She said she was standing by a tree at tbe
lake en the day or the plcnle, waiting for
Ed lth Moere and ether little friends te re
join her. There was no one near her and
suddenly old Smith came upon her from
the weeds. He placed his band ever her
mouth and carried her away. He told her
that they were going te gather ujwers and
warned her net te cry. He then took her
away seme dlstance and placed her in a
small hole, oeverlng her with leaves and
buBbea. She remalned at that place all
night in the soaking rain. She saw the
train bearing her mother and ether folks
going te Lancaster and beard the sheeting
of the dynamtte while tbe lake was being
Bearched, She oenoluded that they were
having Fourth or J uly ever again. When
asked by aeme one why she did net run
away Irem the plce where old Smith left
her yesterday the Uttle girl In a very lnne
cent way Bald " Why 1 was afraid 1 would
get lest mere." It is generally thought
that tbe child was net kept at tbe place
where she waa found during tbe whole of
Thursday night, but was carried some dis
tance away by Smith te avoid tbe searchers.
Wblle In tbe weeds little Bertha received
neither feed nor drink, and It was well she
was rescued en Friday, for when found It
was apparent that the tortures of extreme
hunger oeuld net bave been much longer
endured.
A 0 II EAT CROWD -WAITING; IN LANCASTER.
The newa that tbe child had been found
resehed Lancaster long before tbe little
heroine and when the special train reached
tbe upper Reading depot there was a tre
mendous crowd of men women and child
ren who almost fought each ether In order
te get a placa where they esuld see the little
girl. Mrs. Beck and her eblld were
quickly taken from tbe train and placed In
a cab by H. C. Moere, who had them driven
te their home.
TALK OF LYNCHING. SMITH.
After his arrest old man Smith was taken
te the station at the park. In e few mo me
menta be was surrounded by a very large
and Indignant crowd of people. The men
Beemed very bitter towards him. Atene
time tbere were threats of a "necktie"
party, and one het-headed man procured a
rope, whieh was net used, however. Smith
was struck a heavy blew In tbe faee by
one man who oeuld net restrain himself
Smith did nothing but declare that be was
Innocent of any crime. At 0:30 o'elook tbe
prisoner was taken te Lebanon by Superin
tendent Nell and placed In jail.
Smith's home la at Whlte Oak, a Btatlen
en tbe Lebanon read between Manhelm
and Mt. Hepe and a few miles from Pen
ryn. Here be lives with his family and
his a little home. He works at odd jobs
and cultivates a small pitch of ground.
NOT OF OOOD REPUTE.
His reputation is net of tbe best and he Is
known among his neighbors as an astrologer
or ehsrm worker. He often attends market
In this city where he Is known by many
people. A gentleman who Is well ac
quainted wlta him aays that be dees net
think be would deliberately steal a child,
but It he found one, he would be about
dumb enengh te hide It and try te get a
reward.
Smith Is the man who had sdaae trouble
with his son about n year age when
the young man shot him, wound.
Ing blm severely. He spsaks broken
English and secms te bsvery Ignorant The
offense with whieh an new stands charged
was oemmltted In Lebanon county, just
across tbe line, and he will be tried there.
It la believed that Smith's sole motive In
taking tbe eblld wa te get money whieh he
thought tbe owner of tbq park would give
for ita reesvery la order that their retort
might net sutler. He was very successful
in keeping tbe child away as long as be did,
but he told en himself In a very bungling
manner.
Manager Jaoksen, of the park, and Super
intendent Nell, of the railroad, deserve the
greatest credit for tbe deep Interest they
took In the recovery of the little one and
their untiring and unceasing efforts te
bring It back. Mr. Ntff waa In tbta city
lat evening and bad with blm tbe basket,
blaek shawl, Ae , of old Btnith. Tba good geed
humored ycung superintendent seemed aa
nappy ever the finding of tbe eblld aa Ita
mother, and everybody else waa,
When tba eab containing Mrr, Beck and
ber eblld arrived home there waa a large
orewd watting te receive them, lira, Beek
received tbe congratulations of ber numer
ous friends en tbe recovery of ber child. If
Smith bad been in tbe clutches of this gath
ering bis Ufa would have been la danger.
As seen aa the crowd oeuld be dispersed ll!
tie Bertha waa put te bed, bat the strain en
her was ae great that she did net fall asleep
for hour. This morning ahe bad Improved
and did net seem te be Buffeting any 111
effects from her adventure and waa In geed
health and spirit All day the beuse waa
crowded with people, where curiosity drew
them.
ABRAHAM BECK TALKS.
A representative of the Jntbllieemckr

ure of the mother and child for Lebanon.
The child waa taken there te-day against

ing heavy article', weighing from 140 te
170 pounds, and te that work he
attributes bis spinal trouble. After be

be was translerred te the yard and re
malned there until be secured a position

nere he worked until his Illness compelled
him te cease labor and take hla bed. Hla

ing. One boy earns $2 per week and a girl

thankful that tbe child faal been restored
te Ita parents, and hoped that the villain

Mr. Beck Is lavish In bis praise of tbe
railroad men for their efforts te recover his
child. He Is net vindictive In this utter
ances against Smith and sajs that all he
wants la that Justice shall be meted out te
the accused. He also expressed hla thanka
te the newspapers for their efforts In help
leg te Und his child and te the citizens of
Lincaster for the sympathy exteuded te

waa tba let en tbe rear end et the Atlee,
Fordney, Rohrer, and Haaa properties,

among parlies Interested and the public In

But Ktng and Chestnut seemed te be de

In general, while being divided In senti
ment as te the wisdom et the cholee,
seemed te be glad that the agony was evear
and hoped that a contract ler the weii

The government pays but $13,000 the ad

A representative of the Intellioenebr
bad a brief chat this morning with Dr. O,
R. Rohrer and Mr, J. Q. Haas, The dec dec
ter seemed te be rather pleased with tbe
selection made, though It cuts oft tbe
greater part of hla pretty garden, He esti
mates the less te his front property at
about $2,000. Mr. Haas seemed te be very
Indifferent about tbe matler. He did net
think he lest or gained imytblng by tbe
taking of his property. The land selected
deea net include anv of the old Dltmar I
Lw A?it !Si-? rt tnI I

west about halt way through tbe let en I
which Mr. Haas' building stands. New that I
the site of the building has been fixed, Mr,
Haas tblnka tbat the elty should de some

should be opened from the public building
te North Queen street
Cel. Wm. B. Fordney, It he bad been
governed by his Individual feellng, would

In deferenoe te the wishes of some geed

Ne buildings of any value will have te be
destroyed, and a handseme building that
will be an ornament te the neighborhood
will take tbe place of vacant leta and wooden

moderate, nnd aa te convenience the site Is
as geed if net better than any etber effered.
It Mr. Alice had laid out hla land en Duke

through the rear end of the Fordney and

they would have brought mero than $15,000.
Mr. Atlee was well pleased that tbe
