An Enoch Arden in Illinois.
Tuscota (H.) Review,

Almost another Enoch Arden affair,
which is SO pathetically described in
Tennyson's poems of that name, trans
pired in the neighborhood Of Isabel,
Edgar county last week. About twen
ty-one years ago Josiah Bouser, of that
vicinity, left his wife and son William,
then few years old, in care of her
father, William Hollis, and departed for
the far west in search Of fortune.
Nothing being heard of him in the
lapse of years, he was supposed dead,
and his wife married his twin brother,
Uriah Bouser, by whom she had two
sons, and with whom she lived until
her death, which occurred about two
years ago.
Last week Josiah, the deceased's first
husband, very unexpectedly made his
appearance in Isabel in search Of his
wife and son, whom he supposed We're
still living, and was greatly grieyed to
find that Ills wife had been married
again and was dead. His son, who was
attending school at Bloomington, was
summoned, and his surprise can better
be imagined than described on meeting
his long-lost father. Mr.. Bouser has ac-
cumulated quite an immense fortune.
The cause of his long silence and alb
senCe is not stated

A Curious Love Story.

miles east of here, in Rush county, is
just now enjoying huge sensation.
For three years past youth by the
name of John Barlow, aged 19, son OF
the postmaster and merchant of the
town, has been paying attention to Miss
Nettie Atkins, who, strange to say, is
nine years older than the young man
in question. She is the only daughter
Of widowed molher, who is in rather
good circumstances.
In this case the age of the young lady
proved no obstacle, and the pair were
looked upon as most ardent admirers.
Young Barlow was as devoted as could
be desired, and it became the general
opinion thot the couple were engaged.
However, a few days since the court:
ship was rudeiy brought to an end, and
a CONSERVATION created by Barlow sud.

. A Teacher of Pocketpicking.

Twenty years ago Chester established
Il school in Condor dedicated to the de-
votees Of St. Nicholas, and he speedily
obtained many pupils. The most we'll
known and skillful pickpockets who
have paid the penalty Of being caught
and those who were clever enough to
evade the clutches OF the law, have all
been nodded according tn the Chesterian
method And when it is stated that in
twenty years that Chester has been able
to amass fortune of $4,000, the great
importance and efficacy of his lessons
will be thoroughly appreciated. His
pupils, on leaving his institution, We're
formed into bands of ten under the
guidance Of "schoolmaster, and it
was under the aegis of this ever-watch-
full guardian that they overran the earth.
Two-thirds of the "protits were faithful
ly and punctually paid to the iilustrious
professor. Chester demeaned himself
but twice in his career by working"
personally. 1t was in Paris during the
two last exhibitions, In 1873 he was
arrested and condemned to six months
imprisonment, and he was moreover
prohibited from ever entering France
again. He has since disposed of the
good will of his business" to two of his
best pupils and retired to Birmingham,
where he has great deal of property.
Having some very urgent affairs to set
tie in Paris, he applied a few dnys ago
for permission 40 pass few days in this
capital which has been Only accorded
him. But as it was deemed unadvisable
to allow man of his capacity to roam
about the city without let or hindrance,
two police agents have been told off to
act as an escort of surveillance. Chester
is 65 years old, and is the father of ten
children, whom he has educated in a
princely manner, and he himself is the
master of several languages.

All the Year Around.

The seventeen-year locust is filling
the hills and rich bottom-lands Of West
ern Pennsylvania and Virginia with its
droning thunder, which is almost deaf
ening at noon on a sunny, day. The
farmers have plenty of reasonable
theories to account for its mysterious
appearance and long absence. 1t has,
they say, to make a journey to China
and back, which takes eight years each
way; or, it is part Of the Egyptian host,
lost in the Red sea, which still live in
some neither world, but are allowed
every seventeen years to revisit these
glimpses of the moon, and cry on Phar-
a-oh! Pharaoh! to arouse the remofse OF
their buried leader; or, it comes to fore
tell war, as may be seen by the most in
crudulous in the w on its wing. But
the sole outcome ofall these impending
disasters will be downfall of dead limbs
in August.
This locust eats neither fruit nor vege-
table, so far as can be discovered; tt sim
ply riddles the green new wood of the
tappering limbs of trees to deposit its
eggs. If these branches are burned
and the ground plowed up our visitor
will be longer in making his journey
from China or the Red Sea.

Three Children Drowned Through Reck.
Warrensburg (Mo.) Standard.


An accident through carelessness,
caused the death of three children in
the waters of the Blackwater about a
mile below the mouth Of Clear fork
Sunday afternoon, A man named Con-
ners, his wife, sister and four children,
attempted to cross to his home on the
opposite side to save a drive to bridge
four miles below. The women pleaded
earnestly against making the attempt,
as the water was running very swiftly,
and at the lowest stage there was deep
hole alongside the ford, making it un-
safe to cross at any time. Corners per-
sisted and stubbornly drove in. Almost
as soon as the wagon struck the water
it was upset, and threw the occupants
into the raging waters, carrying them
swiftly down stream. Corners seized
his wife, who had a baby in her arms,
and being an expert swimmer, succeed
ed in reaching the shore, but in a COM
pletely exhausted condition. The sister
who was buoyed up by her clothing,
was carried about mile down stream
with the next to the youngest child held
fast in her arms, when she succeeded in
clutching an overhanging limb, but
unfortunately lost her hold on the child
and it was drowned.
The body of this child has not yet
been recovered. One of the children
was caught under the wagon bed, where
its corpse was afterwards found. An
other Of the children was carried down
stream and drowned, and its dead body
was found some distance below the
scene of accident. One horse was drown
ed, but the other by frantic efforts, sue
ceeded in breaking loose from the har
ness and swan ashore
