A Romantic Story From Maine.


Some years before the war Otis
Burton, a former resident of Bangor,
left here to seek his fortunes in the
West. He drifted to Missouri, where
he met an accomplished young lady
with whom he fell in love. She was
pleased with him, but before he made
his passion known she moved to
distant part of the South.
About this time the war broke out,
and the two soon lost all traces OF each
other. Burton joined the Union army,
and was soon afterward wounded, and
as it was supposed he would die letter
was sent to his mother informing her
that her son could not live. He, how
ever, was blessed with a good constitu-
ton and recovered. He went back to
his regiment and was detailed with a
company to take supplies across the
plains. The party was attacked by
Indians and every man in the force
except Burton killed. He was reported
| to have been slain with the rest. The
| Indians decided to let him live and took
him prisoner to their retreat in the
| mountains Of the Southwest. He grad
| ually recovered from the wounds he
had received in the encounter, made
himself agreeable to his captors, and
| adapted himself to their ways of living.
After he had been in captivity six
| months or more he was allowed more
liberty, and now began to watch for a
| chance to escape. The Indians had
stolen number of ponies, and among
l Inh ar'1
| eye showed him was Eighty bred, swift,
| and with speed and endurance. This
pony was cared for and petted by
Burton, and he was allowed to ride him.
| O1e day he strayed away further than
usual, and though not acquainted with
tie country, made dash for liberty.
He was closely pursued, but the gallant
little pony had the bottom for win
| ming race. He rode for three days, and
| then began to see that he was getting
| out of the hostile country. In the dis
lance he saw a house which he knew
must be inhabited by whites. He
shouted with joy, feeling that he haC
| gained Freedom at last. He knocked
| at the door of the house, and surprise
awaited him. 1t was opened by the
woman whom be bad loved in lang syne
He was at once recognized and received
hearty welcome. Burton told hi
adventures and narrow escapes to q
willing listener. She, too, told hel
story She had married Confederate
officer, who was afterward killed IL
battle, and she now owned the farm she
| occupied. Is it necessary to tell tht
restp They were betrothed, there wa
merry wedding, and the happy couple
are still living in Southwest State

"Well, General Picton is just the man to keep
his word. You'd better get the ratons up in

bought at auction and brought home to his wife:

Caldwell Journal: Vim. Corzine spent
night at his ranch IN the Territory, re-
Gently, and slep- out Of doors, as is the
custom. About y o'clock he was awak-
ened by a cold wind blowing on him
from the north. He got up, and while
skirmishing around for more blankets
probably twenty minutes-the wind
changed to the southwest. This is not a
strange thing for the wind to do in this
country, but the strange part of it was
that the southwest wind was as hot as
though it came from the mouth of a fur
mace or bake oven. This wind continued
for Just half an hour. The cause of it
remainsa mystery. Hot winds sometimes
prevail in this country in the day time,
but never in the night, as this did, unless
1t had been prevailing during the day.
Arkansas City Traveller: An accident Of
the most heartrending nature, and re-
sulting in the death of two well known
residents of Bolton township transpired
last week. The facts are as follows:
farm about two miles south from Cue
da, and upon said farm was an old dis
used well some forty five feet deep, which
il was desired to have cleaned out and fit
ted for use. With this object in view Mr.
BIistOw and his nephew. G. w. Crank,
left home on Thursday last and proceed
ed to the old well, which Mr.. Crank at
once descended and proceeded to work,
but soon complained Of the gas hurting
his eyesand requested to be drawn up.
This Mr.. Bristow triedto do, but the we'll
bucket having become lodged he was IN
able to draw him up, when Crank at
tempted to climb the curbing, but be-
coming oVerpOwered by the gas, fell
back, whereupOn BristOw decended by
the rope to his assistance, his wife and
boy, in the meanwhile, raising an alarm.
1t would seem that both men were over
powered by the gas, and, notwithstund-
ing every effort, it was nearly two hours
before the bodies were brought to the
surface through the heroic efforts of
Messrs. Willard and Tompkins, but I'M
fortunately life was extinct.
