Eleven years ago Charles r. Martin an
Martha Spencer were msrried in Give
laud. after their IA d,ot wedding the
young people, with their joint 5eyings,
bought small farm near Chcrlin and ho-
camo residents Of Lorain Comfy, where
they lived for year. Martin was then
attacked with the Western fever On iJs
most acute form, aud selling his farm,
started for the Ncosho Valley, Kan.
Mrs Martin was left in Ohin, intending TO
remain until her husband should locate
farm and serd Tor her Merlin. Nhen he
struck The boundcss West, caught the fc-
yer n dead earnest. ord for six months
was sick a, Usage City. When first pros
trated ho wrote for bis wife, bu: the let
Ter never reached her, and shortly before
his recovery he received his Own missive
through the dead letter department. Tie
wrote again, but received no response, and
when able 10 travel started for Ohio again
with much lighter purse lie went to
Oberln and found that his wife, after
waiting vainly for letter from her hus-
band, had gone TO Chester TO her aunts.
To Chester Martin proceeded al once, and
ehere wss informed that tho aunt had &C
cupied a lot in the village cemetery for
four months, aud that MIS-. Martin hat
gone TO Cleveland. The anxious husband
went to Cleveland and advertised aud
t,or I.,s -, 10 =
discouraged, Martin again departed west
ward. He lost what little money he had
remaining and roamed about for two years
aimlessly. The Black Hills excitement
caught him, and he was one Of the first
10 stake out q claim therein. He located
several in succession, selling them in turn
TO newcomers, and at the end OF three
years found himself worth In the neigh
borhood of ten thousand doilare which be
invested in stock ranch in Southern Kan
sas, and settled down to the life of cat
tie grower.
Last Monday be again appeared in Cleye-
land in response To letter sent him, and
was reunited to tho wife from whom he
had been separated for nearly ten years.
After the death of her relative, Mrs Mar
tin had not gone to Cleveland, &C was
thought, but had gone 10 Painesville.
There she remained few weeks, and,
taking what little wealth she Inherited
from her aunt, started for Kansas TO seek
her husband. She returned three months
later, and has ever since made CleYelaRd
her home, supporting herself by sewing.
She was informed Of her husbands search
for her but all efforts TO discover trace
Of him through letters to The West we're
fruitless, and she calmly waited for events
10 occur. Her patience was rewarded,
for early this month q letter was received
at Chester from the long absent Martin,
asking If anything had been heard of his
wife.
The last few days have been spent by
the long separated pair il renewing the
couriship of their youth and receiving the
congratulations of the friends gained by
the lady during her eight years separa-
ton. Next week they start for Florence,
Kansas, near which town Martins farm
lies, and where his check Is good for s25, =

Take the sunny side OF death Sooner
Or later 1t must come 70 sll, and at he Ia
Test il is only few swiftly passing days
distant. Kings and pntentates have no
refuge. from the summons OF the dread
messenger. Death is the great leveler OF
man, aud dust is the heritage of all. Why,
then, should We shrink from its contem
p.aiou ? Ii is notrational to permit death
TO shadow cur lives nor to turn in terror
from whut must as surely come as to-
morrow's sun. Those who are suddenly
chilled day after day by the thoughts of
death either shallow their lives by misdeeds
OF r. ccL the philosophy that should make
every well ordered life wait sereDeiy for
its end. The rational apprehension Of the
upright man is, not that he may fall too
soon in the race, but that he may linger
too .oug and outlive everything but hope.

Of that one great incentive to crime and
sorrow- the ix-shooter. II il seldom that a

deliberately procures a weapon Tor the pur-
pose OF killing his man; he will let slight
or supposed insult pass, when, If he was
armed, the first thing would be n shot, a
