A Singular Case
t-'apt. A. C. Vnog, living in Uie Dublin);
I f on hb, West ami Chambers, street New
York, on Sunday evonltig rnslied Into the
polios IjouiI ijti :ii torn of that city, and in
formed Capt. Bllbnrt that Annie, IiIb thir
teen ycir-old daughter had disappeared.
He Riiid that Annie and her younger brolli
or and sister were vrulltitifr nlonjj West
Htreet nbout Ave o'clock on that nfternoou
when they were mot by a short, thick-act
man, with black whl.skoi slightly tinged
with Ri'ay, and ubout forty-five years old.
Taking Auuie by the lniniJ be persuaded
her to accompany hiin. lie led her on
board Uie steamer Brjstol, on the Fall Hlv
er line. Her brother and sister followed.
The atrauger gave them pennies and put
them ashore, but would nut allow Annie to
land. The steamer salted, and the two
younger childicn were left crying on the
dock. After hearing this statement, Ccpt.
Silbert at once telegraphed to the Chief of
Police of Fall River, requesting him to
look out for the parties upon the arrival of
the boati When the llristol leached hor
dock in the Massachusetts town, yesterday
ruorttnii;, a detective was on hand, and suc
ceeded in arresting the man, who had the
little girl with him. They were at onoe
taken to headquarters and a telegram was
sent to Superintendent Walling, of New
York, notifying him of the arrest. Last
evening Capt. Puug aud a New York ofli
cer left on the five o'clock boat for Fall
Kivor, and will arrive there about eight
o'clock this morning. It was ascertained
that the roan arrested for the abduction is
Stephen M. Barbour.of No. 37 North 10th
street, Philadelphia. Last evening a re
porter called at his residence aud saw his
wife and daughter. They bad no knowl
edge of the circumstances, but stated that
Mr. Barbour had left on Saturday on his
vacation. It was his intention they said to
go to Boston by the Fall River route. They
were of course greatly affectod when they
informed of the sad affair, aud as Mrs.
Barbour had some doubt as to whether or
-not it was her husband, she telegraphed at
once to the chief of police of Fall River.
Several hours after she received a reply
Btatitij! that the man in custody was her
husband. Mr. Barbour is well known in
Ibis city, having lived bere nearly all his
i.h. For a number of years be was en
gaged in the clothing business on Arch and
Ninth streets, where he had two large
stores. He sold both out, aud is now en
gaged sb a salesman for Wanamaker &
Brown, at Sixth nnd Market streets. lie
ia said to bo in fair circumstances. Several
of his children are grown. It is probable
that he will be held at Fall River to await
a requisition, when he will be sent to New
York city for trial, if the facts of the case
"warrant, such a proceeding. Phila. Press.
How Thirteen Girls Were Dosed.
The Detroit Evening "News" says : A
large number of girls are employed at
Parke,Davi8 & Co.'s laboratory, foot of Mo
Dougall avenue,and some of the tnedioines
and elixirs whioh go through their hands
contain a liberal percentage of wine. The
llrra prides itself on the quality of its goods
and when they made a discovery the other
day, that a lot of medicine was below
standard, an investigation was promptly
set on foot and resulted in a suspicion that
some of the girls Were drinking the wino
and diluting the medicine.
Tho firm put their heads together and
divised a trap for those naughty girls
which worked like a charm. The wine
used for the next batch of elixirs was "doc
tored" with a liberal quantity of jalap or
ipecac, or some other lively emetic, and af
tor tho girls had been at work a little
while, thirteen of them turned pale around
the gills and declared that tbey were sick
in fact very sick and it didn't cause
them to feel any better when they learned
the trap that had been set for them, and
were informed that the firm could get along
' without their service.
Got His Hay Dried.
Many years ago there lived in Salem,
Conn., an eccentric man named Amasa
ivtlborn, about whom numberless stories
are told to this day. On one occasion in
.summer he bad a five acre lot of choice
grass cut and spread out to dry. In the
afternoon a shower came up and drenched
it. The next day the ' hay was spread out
again to dry. Another shower came up
and re-drenched it. On the third day the
same programme was ropeated. On the
fourth day, after the bay had been proper
ly dried and raked into windrows, a cloud
pillar moved up over the western horizon,
and a dibtant growl of thunder echoed
from the bills. Kilborn was mad. lie
looked at the hay and looked at the cloud.
" Run up to tho house, boy, " he said in
a voice trembling with rosentmeut, and
bring down a fire-brand ; quick, now 1"
The boy asked no questions. ' lie came
buck with a blazing torch, and Kilborn
touched off each windrow. "There,"
Mid he, " Pll see if this hay will get wet
again 1"-. . .
A Bride Locked up by Her Parents.
XJueer folks at Owonso. A rich man's
daughter went to Monroo on a visit.- There
she was joined by a young man who was in
her father's employ, and they were mar
tied. On their return the marriage certifi
cate whs shown, Fo was the old man's
boot. The youug woman, who by the way
Is old enough to defy the whole family if
bIio cares to, Is shut up at home, and the
youug man is ahout town receiving the
sympathy and congratulations of all bis
friends. lie is said to be a worthy individ
ual, but his bride's parents don't appear to
think BOi .
A Vory Narrow Guagt R. R.
One of the most curious railroads In the
world is the ton-inoh guage road running
from North Bollerioa, to New Bedford. It
was at first hooted at by the people, but the
read was completed, making a length of
about eight and a half miles. There are
eleven bridges ou tho road, one of which
is over 100 feet long. The rails weigh
twenty-five pounds to the yard. The road
is well built and equipped. One grade Is
153 feet. The cars and engiues will, at
first sight, create wonder and admiration.
Their perfect proportions give them a
handsome appearance. They are con
structed very near tho ground, giving
them great advantages for safety. The
cars have an aisle with one seat on each
side in the same manner1 as an ordinary
cars have two seats. The length of the
cars allows thirty seats, each person hav
ing a soat to himself. The cars are sup
plied with closets, water-tauks, are heated
by steam and have all the modern itn
provements. Tbey weigh but four and a
half tons, ordinary cars weighing, on an
average, eighteen tons. The trains run at
the rate of twenty miles an hour with per.
feet safety. The engine is placed behind
the tender, giviug it greater adhoslou to
the track. Tbey weigh eight tons, aud
draw two passenger and two freight oars.
The cost of the road was about 4,500 . per
mile..
