that he could get good news item from
him, reporter accossed him and ascer-
tanned that the news vas Of IN in,erestine

not to Nj. Moore. His story was brief, but
contained considerable Information. He
said that he hailed from Boston, Ma
'achusesss, and had started on . missionary
trip across the continent, under the direc-
ton Of the Board Of Missions for the
Methodist Episcopal church. He had pro-
cceded ~ far Is Chicago, meeting with
good success. He left there for Quincy on
the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Rail-
road for Quincy. Being tired and worn
out, he fell asleep shortly after getting on
the train, but was awakened soon after BY
the conductor calling "tickeis." He reach
ed into his side coat pocket for bis pocket
book but that interesting "item" had mys-
seriously disappeared. He found his ticket
in his vest pocket and told the conductors
that his pockets had been picked while
asleep. The pocket book contained $50,
the taking Of which left him with but .
few cents in his pocket. He says that he
remembers that a gentleman whom be
would under ordinary circumstances have
taken for minister was sitting q his side
and furthermore when he awakened, be
was gone. Mr.. Moore says ths conductor
brought him through to Kansas City and
Barnard Of the Bluffs road
passed him hence to st. Joseph. He in
forms Us that he knows no one in 81. Jo-
seph and never was here before 1t Vas his
intention to return to headquarters should
he be able to procure the necessary means.
He yesterday paid . visit to the various
ministers OF his church from whom he ex-
poets assistance. This 10 his story.

There resides in Wyandotte county .
lady but lately married, Who although per-
haps meaning no harm, is fond, during the
absence Of her husband. Of receiving the at
tention Of other gentlemen; and, being
witty, good-lookine, and quite young, it is
needless 10 say she has many ardent admit
rers. But to the story. A short time since,
her husband being absent, she sent q very
tender little note to one Of her gallants,
sskine II he would escort her 10 . ball, on
acertain evening; and going then to the
post of6ce-which one it is not necessary to
state. - there are many in the county
dropped the letter in the box and hurried
home. Nov, it happened the postmaster
heard the missive fall in the box, and a. he
vas making ND the mail, took the letter out
to add to his package. He soon found out
il Va minus stamp, and went to the door
Of the Office to call hack the lady, but
seeing she was gone too far, put it one side,
intending to return it when called for.
Business Unexpectedly brought the return
Of her husband Who, after arriving and set
tling matters At home, vent to the Office for
letter.. The p. n. handed him h,s mail.
aud then the little dainty note dropped BY
his wife, saying: Mr.. X. Y. Z, your wife
poased that yesterday. without putting on
any stamp. Would you please attend to
it," He did 20 By tearing it open, and,
discovering the contents, rushed home and
confronsed his wife with her per6dy. A
scene followed which would besgar the de.
scriPtioa Of any pen or pencil. He finally
ordered her from the house. and she 10 at
