From the ST. Louis be-Democrat
When Cleveland was inaugurated old Fred
Bollinger, of Bollinger county, felt that indeed
"the scepter had returned to Judah" Those
who met the old man in that frame of mind
and heard his expressions, say that they came
away feeling that they had talked with a politi-
cal father in Israel
The months went on, and Barney Carroll, the
republican collector of internal revenue in the
swamp districts of southeast Missouri, made
one of his periodical trips back into Bollinger
to inspect old Fred's still, and see that 1t was
running straight; that the swamps were all
right, and so on.
The old man came out, looked rather sur
prised, and said:
"Howdy, Barney?"
"Good day, Mr.. Bollinger," replied the col
lector, and hitching his horse and preparing for
one of the usual official visits.
You still in service. Barney?" asked old
Fred, with increasing surprise.
"Oh, yes" said Mr.. Carroll, cheerfully, get

"Hain't our people taken the tax off whiskey,

About four years ago Stanlus Krosski came

Judge Green to-day. In 1872 Catherine
Rooney, widow, died at Shenandoah, leaving
valuable estate. She had four children, but
only two of them, both living in Shenandoah.
were known. The estate was Sold and for q
long time the two missing heirs were advertised
for throughout the country. A daughter of
Mrs. Rooney had left home when quite Young
and gone into service in Philadelphia. 1t was
known that she had there married Jas. Bowes
and lived with him for fifteen or sixteen wears
In 1868 she visited her old home at Shenan-
dOah, and that was the last heard from her. A
letter sent to the mayor of Philadelphia in $50
led to her discovery. After the death of her hus-
band she had moved to Chester county and
there married Nicholas Blank.
The other missing heir, John Rooney YVES
found through her. He had enlisted at the
breaking out of the war and afterwards served
five years in the regular service When finally

the property should be legally acquitted

Tie trial came up to-day. Mrs. Blank went on
the stand and gave an interesting account of
her twenty-five years wanderings. The Jury
without leaving the box, awarded her and
her brother one-nalf of the estate, which is
valued at several hundred thousand dollars.

don't believe there was girl in the whole
tobogganing party without yellow garter on
her left leg. That is the fashionable fetch
against bad luck. Now, don't hurry to say that
they expected to disclose them in the viciss-
tudes OF tabogganing, because they didn't in
tend TO do anything of the kind, and l will
prove their innocence. One night we had lit
tie smash-up, and friend of mine was jammed
between the sled and the post. When she got
into seclusion, and she and made an examina-
ton OF her hurt, we found a dreadful bruise
where the clasp of her yellow garter had been
gouged cruelty into the tender flesh. If she
hadn't been the soul OF modesty would she have
hobbled OFF to the house. she did, declaring
that she had been wrenched in the arm only
when she knew that a young doctor on the spot
was armed with ointments and bandages for
such wounds? Again, when the moon came out
suddenly from behind cloud, full and bright,
and just then line of six tOboggans were ready
To start down the slide, an old chap cried out:
"Oh, look at the yellow gleams.' Every girl
was alarmed by the thought that it was her tai
ismaic garter that had flashed into view and
nineteen left feet were drawn in with a violence
and precision that betrayed the reason of our
emotion.
