ExrbaIsEp.-Fhs Rulo Register gives
the following explanation Of the watch
affair. which We spoke Of last week:
The Frenchman" spoken Of. desires
us to make the following explanation ;
On the night in question. his hotel was
crowded with travellers, and amons.them
were two ladies. to whom his wife very
kindly gave up her own room, and fol
herself and family made down bed on
the Office floor. near where the carpet -sacl
was lying. When she retired. she laid
down her watch in the place mentioned
in the above extract. remarking to hel
husband. at the time. that he must no
let her forget it next morning; but not
withstanding. both Of them forgot it IN
til it was discovered BY the owner OF tn
carpet. sack.
We have no doubt this explanation i
correct. and with it the Register nigh
have let the matter, rest. Oar articl
contained nothing but facts. which. with
out explans nstion. as the laudlady left it
made the affair look suspicious. Th
fact that stealing has been dons in tn
vicinity of White Cloud. or that spartie
committing robberies in N.braska soma
times retreat in the direction of Kansas
is wholly irrelevant to the question. AM
adds nothing to the explanation. Hence
