A Modern Rip Van Wrinkle.

John Hangus, Achickle. Virginia, "
was registered on the books of the
Berks County Hotel, at Reading. Pa,
one day last week. Everybody stared
at him, for, in spite of his dark com
plexion, his long gay curls, and the gold
rings in his ears which gave him an
alien air, his face appeared familiar.
Leaving the hotel he found his way to
the house of Mr.. ROLAND and wished to
see the lady of the house. She came
down. and recognized him at once. He
was that husband of hers who had dis
appeared twenty-eight years before.
Though she greeted him cordially, there
was 20 gushing, no tears, no heart
clasps. no fond embraces, but a cool,
deliberate narrative of his and her own
past careers. Then he called on his
Youngest daughter, who was also mar
ried to another ROLAND. That lvly was
engaged at her household duties when
she was suddenly confronted by n
strange man. "Your name is Mary"
said he, breaking short silence and
advancing step or two. ''Yes, that
is my name" answered Mrs. ROLAND,
cycling her strange visitor suspiciously.
"What can / do for youP" 81 am your
father, Mary, who left you when you
were babe three months old. Am /
quite forgottenP" And tears came to
the old mans eyes as he learod against
the table and ga3ed at his daughter.
Mrs, Rolland's first impulse vas to sum-
mon assistance, for she feared the man
was demented, but he stopped her and
soon convinced her that his story was
true and then related to her his past
life. He had been in the war, was taken
prisoner by the rebels and escaped, lived
with the Indians, went to France, and
then came back 20 this country. AS his
family did not seem disposed TO take
him back, he disappeared. without bid
