Through the kindness Of Mr.. McHais
We have been made acquainted with
story Of sorrow and perplsxity which
brings home to US very forcibly tho tentn
Of the oft-repeatsd adsge that "truth is
stranger than fiction
Yesterday morning, on the short line
railroad from s.. Louis, an old man. &C.
companisd by his con, arrived In tho city.
The son 70 tall, stalwAPt man, about six
eset two inches in hight, aged perhaps
twssty-ave years. The father and son
went TO he house Of Ars. Gibson 10 secure
sccomodat's~ while in the city waiting
for steamboat ~ which 10 proceed ON
their journey down tn river. While tho
father was making the ne..sssry arrange
men.s with Mrs. Gibson, the IN walked
on. Of tho house, down tho street
and into the house Of Mr.. Cur~n
where he acted in a very strange and un'
accountable manner, knocking the chill
drcn right and left, throwing the furni'
ture into confusion, much to the alarm OF
the whole household. Officer Cain APP
peared, and secured the young man, and
in company with the father, took him to
the calaboo.c, whom jai Ter MclIalc took
him in charge and to VIII ON the father re-
lated his strange and sorrowful story
which il in substance as follows
Mr.. Boone Is . man Of respectable
Standing and comfortable circumstances,
living near the mouth of Red River. lie
had given::his son every educational adj
vantage and tho latter nd left home and
gone up the river 10 engage in school
teaching.
Mr.. Boone was satisfied with the choice
Of his son; and, resting easy in the belief
that he was pursuing his avocstion, the
grief and amaxement Of tho father can DO
better ayined than described, when he
CHANGED " rsad in California paper .
perfect description Of his son rs an In
mate Of q lunatic asylum in that far-oh
state.
The grieEssricken parent started i'm.
mcdiately to California, and on his arr
rival found his hopes dissipated, and every
sad foreboding made q reality. The son
from whom he had parted in health and
with every faculty unimpaired, W" .
| lunatic. What had been tho cause Of
his arrangement and how he had traversed
the many thousand miles from Louisiana
to California, are mysteries which cannot
be explained. All the father could do
was TO retrace his wcarisoms journey
with his lunatic son as his companion.
He chose the overland route rs tho quick.
-, and best under the circumstances.

uoon took the steamer Alaska FOR BIZ

A Happy and Unexpected Meeting
of Friends fn Church.
the Boston Travelor.l

From the Boston Iraveler.l
A few Sabbath evenings since lady,
just past the middle age, entered the yes
tibule of the Beech street Presbyterian
church, and in response to the questions
Of an usher il she would be shown to a
seat, she said she would like a seat close
by the door, and her wish was grati6ed.
A few minutes later while the congrega-
ton were singing the first hymn, another
lady, also a stranger, came in, and with
a remark that she had heard so much
about the evening services at that
church, that she wished to look in and
see the congregation, asked that she
might have a seat close to the door, as
she must leave in few minutes to take a
horse-car going some miles out Of town.
She was shown into the pew with the other
stranger, and, as they looked upon each
other, embraced in a manner not often
witnessed in church. They at once went
out and told their story, to the effect that
they were intimate friends for many
