An EnOch Arden Case I'm Dubupue.


Thirty months sgo, 9 German, living
ON White street, in this city, volunteered
with the 2lst Iowa infantry, and went to
war. We shall call him Schmidt for
short. He left q wife who was rather
good: locking, quite industrious, rather
frugal and ehildless. .o n5ula odT
Time rolled on, and Scmidt went with
his regiment to Vicksburg. There he was
shot one day, and left for dead on the
field. The sad intelligence was sent 70
his wife by his captain, and she inamedia
ately obtained the ASST stance of law.
yer, secured his back pay and O widows
pension. She drew the latter regularly,
and, with what she earned, managed to
live comfortably. In few months she
attracted the attention of one Schones,
who we see IL miller BY occupation.
He wooed and won, and for him she gave
up the pensiou. They were married
last summer. The course of true love
ran smooth with them until last Saturday
morning, when, Just after they had 6n-
ished breakfast, Mr.. Schmidt, the irst
husband, opened the door and walked in
Here was q fixi Mrs.-what would
her name be IN such case2-shrieked;
Mr.. Shones turned pale and trembled,
for Schmidt looked vengeance after he
had surveyed the scene q moment and
taken all its meaning in. After several
minutes of silence, Schones revived,
and boldly asked, 4 "What 10 to be
dones" Schmidt sat down and told the
story. He was Wounded-not severely
-at Vicksbnrg, and taken prisoner,
and the rebels carried him away with
them From that time he had been IN
Southern prisons until three weeks
since, when he was exchanged. He
came to Dubuque as soon as he could,
and FASTENED % his home. He received
no iutimAtion of his Wifss marriage M
til he entered the house that morning.
Az he concluded his story, his feelings
oyercame him, and he Wept, and she
swept also. But it all ended in the sec
/ ond husbands refusal to give the wife
up. She, we are informed, refused TO

men might settle, the matter between
themselves For four days both men
kept very close to the house, and had
many ardent discussions over their diff
