WHAT ROSS SAYS.

A representative of the GLOBE
interviewed the prisoner, but got
very little satisfaction. He is a
well-dressed, respectable looking gentle
man, and has no appearance of being such
criminal as this charge would seem to
indicate. He said he came to st. Paul
last October, where he opened an Office as
a doctor, in the Sherman block, on Waba-
shaw street, where he has been since that
time doing business in his own name
openly and without any attempt
at concealment. Here was where the Of
ficers found him and made his arrest.
They took him away from his business and
he did not even lock his Office. If he is
not guilty and is taken back to Grand
Haven and goes through trial, he may
get through in a year, when if he is not
convicted he will return to st. Paul to
see his business DESTROYED and
all his present prospects in life ruined.
Mr.. Ross claims that he never was in
Grand Haven in his life and never was
connected in any way with any robber 7
anywhere, and asserts that he does not
understand what it ali means.

SALEM n, c., Nov. 29-James Buck, an old
white man, living near Bodkin, owns small
farm. upon which he and his only daughter
lived. She was aged twenty two, and plain.
Buck saw the chance of making a profitable
crop of tobacco if he could only get some
one to assist him and his daughter in the
field. He was very poor, and could barely
make enough to live on, and the knowledge
of this fact prevented his seeking labor.
Richard Turney, a young man, moved in
the neighborhood about fourteen months
ago, and secured a job on a neighboring
plantation. Turney became enamored of
Bucks daughter. The father determined to
turn the affection to account, and agreed, if
the young man would assist him on the
farm for one year. he would give him a
double barreed shotgun and his daughter.
Turney agreed The term of service expired
to-day, and Turney asked fulillment of
the contract on the spot. Buck gave him
the shotgun and called the daughter in and
asked her to agree to become Turney's wife.
She refused to do so, saying that she had
already given her heart to another, to whom
she was to be married tonight. Turney went
off in a terrible rage. He threatens to sue
the old man for S., 900 for breach of contract
and get an injunction restraining the >syirl
from marrying his rival.

tie boy and came to Cincinnati to enlist in
the Northern army At the battle of Chick

burned by confederate soldiers. Having an
uncle in Cincinnati, she came here, but the
uncle had moved West somewhere, and she
sought employment. After few years she
went to Covington, and there permanently
resided. The report of the husbands death
was erroneous. He went to San Francisco
and, with others, opened a banking house
One day young man entered, in reply to an
advertisement for a book-keeper. A resem-
blance between himself and the senior pro-
pretor was noticed, questions were asked
and, from the replies given, it became appar-
ent that it was the SON of the banker who
was seeking employment The Young man
said he never knew what became of his moth
er. He was made a partner in the bank
Some time afterward an old West Virginia
friend named Warren called on the banker
and told him that his wife was living in Gov
ington, KY, telegram was sent and reply
received from the widow of twenty-one
years. Then the banker went to Covington,
and the pair were reunited.
