A Case OF Mistaken Identity.
baltimore Day, July 2sth.I


Probably the most surprised man in
the city yesterday was Joseph Willen,
of No. 100 North Pine street, who,
through mistaken identity, pronounced
his wife, Mrs. Wilhelniina Wilien, dead.
Mrs. Willen had intended to 80 to Bay
Ridge on Monday, but after leaving
home met some friends who persuaded
her to accompany them to Tivoli, Her
husband learned Of this, and was waiting
at the Light street wharf for the last
boat in order TO meet her. She, how
ever, came up on an earlier trip, and
getting of at Henderson's wharf pro-
ceeded to her home. Mr.. Willen await
ed all night at Light street for the
Cockade City, which came no further
than Henderson's wharf, and upon
learning Of the accident hastily drove to
Henderson's wharf. He inquired for
his wife, but no one knew her, though
be was told that there was dead body
in the baggage-room which answered
the description he gave. He viewed the
body. In every way it resembled
Mrs. Wellen and with fearful eyes he
pronounced it to be that Of his wife.
He ordered an undertaken to remove
the body and went home completely
broken down. Upon entering the house
be told his sister that his wife was
dead, and seemed very much effected,
fYour wife isn't dead," said the lady;
ssshe is in her room" Mr.. Willen
refused to believe his wife living until
she was called down stairs, and his
feelings can be better imagined than
described.
The nows that Mrs. Willen had been
drowned had spread far and wide, htr
name having been printed among the
list Of persons lost, and all during the
afternoon many friends called to offer
their sympathy only to be assured that
she lived. So numerous did thene. visi.

A Burslar'a Clever Ruse.

morning by noise, indicating the NOV

ment, and looks out upon the back yard.
Mr.. Hinsch jumped out of bed, and with
out stopping to dress stepped into the
kitchen. A man was just about getting
out of one Of the windows into the yard.
whats the natter" said Mr.. Hinsch,
standing SO close to the strange intruder
that he could almost touch him with his
hand .Wbat are you doing here?"
The stranger, who was partly in the
open space Of the window, Turned coolly
about, 50 as to face Mr.. Hinscll, and ex-
claimed, "Why, the house is all afire,
and / came in to give the alarm. The
police are at the front door trying to get
in."
So much excited by this intelligence
that he aid not stop to weigh the
probability as to its truth, Mr..
Hinsch rushed to the front door.
He opened it, No one was there.
Neither, when he came to think Of it,
was there any indication of fire. Then
1t dawned upon him that he had been
fooled, and he started for the kitchen
again to argue the case with the stran-
ger. That individual, however, was
missing. While Mr.. Hinsch was busy
with the front door, the stranger had
improved the time by effectually getting
out Of the way, taking with him few
dollars in money and silver watch,
which Mr.. Hinsch had left lying on the
kitchen table upon retiring the night be-
fore. Mr.. Hinsch thinks he could iden-
tify his cool-headed visitor should he
see him again.
