This! morning the mother of the child, |Mrs- Collins, and the grandmother ^ Mrs. Coleroin, took the cars for North Madison to intercept Patsy with the child. When the train reached North Madison, Patsy’s suspicious eye discovered the two pursuing women. With the child in his arms his legs immediately became active and fleet. He ran up an alley bnt the wife eotered in od6 direction and the allef the mother-in-law in another, and by this shrewd movement secured a corner on Patsy.
