ROMANCE OF TRUE LOVE.
How a Young Confederate Love-
n Patriotic UniOn Maiden.

How a Young Confederate Loved
Patriotic Union Maiden.
New York Press.
A romance in real life that recalls the
battle of Gettysburg came to light in
Brooklyn yesterday. The parties con-
cerned are Mrs. Mary Moore, tall,
handsome woman, who lives at 1923 At
lantic avenue, Brooklyn, and henry G.
Willett, who died lately at New Or
leans, leaving Mrs. Moore 5000.
About twenty-five years ago Mrs.
Moore lived with her parents, whose
name was Miller, on the outskirts of
Gettysburg, Pa. Her father was a we'll
TODD farmer, and Mary received a good
education. Two of her brothers enlist
ed in the Union army. The tide of war
soon set toward the home of the Mil
lers, but the sturdy old farmer refused
to abandon his home.
When the fearful three days struggle
began at Gettysburg the Miller home
stead was turned into a hospital and
was soon filled by the wounded of the
Union army. Among the first to be
brought to the house for treatment was
a brother of Mary. Her other brother
was killed on the second day of the bat
tie. On the third and final day of the
battle a young Confederate soldier,
captured within the Union lines in a
wounded condition, was sent TO the Mil
Ter house for treatment. His name was
Heny Willett, member of wealthy
family of Memphis. He was badly
wounded in the left arm, and the sur
geOns found it necessary TO amputate
the member in order to save his life.
An attachment Sprang up between
the wounded soldier and Mary, who was
then remarkably pretty girl. After
some months an exchange of prisoners
was made, and Willett found himself
free. Before he left for his home he
avOWed his love for Mary, and found
that he was loved in return, but she
could not consent to become the wife of
a Confederate.
Some years after Mr.. Miller died and
Mary's home was broken up. She
moved to Staten Island, and took up
her residence with relatives. She be-
came engaged to William B. Allen, a
grandson of Commodore Vanderbilt,
but it was broken off, and she SUISSE
quently married Robert Moore, who
died about two years ago.
All these years she heard nothing of
here rejected lover, but on Monday she
received a letter from New Orleans
from lawyer there informing her that
by the will of Henry e. Willett, lately
deceased, she was entitled to $1,000.
With the letter was a small packet,
which the letter stated had been sent
her in accordance with the last wishes
of the dying man. On opening it Mrs.
Moore found that it contained lock of
hair which she had given her Confeder-
ate lover twenty-five years ago.

He was an old man of sixty, and haG

A Dry Goods Store to be Opened

Il. Stewards of the Northwest.
No little interest on the part of the
citizens of st. Paul has been mani
tested in the improvements that are be-
ing put in at Nos. So, 81 and SO East
Third street during the past two weeks,
and that now for the first time give evil
dence of what the outcome of it all is to
be. 1t is to be nothing less than per-
manent addition to the dry goods trade
Of st. Paul, and such one as will still
further give it the lead over all other
cities as the commercial center of the
West and Northwest. MeSsrs. Schune-
man & Evans, the gentlemen compos-
ing the new firm, are both bright, active
young men, who for number
of years have successfully. con-
Quoted an extensive dry goods
business in Leavenworth, Kansas,
but who found the rather narrow and
contracted business limits of that city
entirely inadequate to the development
of business. from the standpoint from
which they viewed it. They have en-
ergy, enterprise and thorough
knowledge Of the dry goods bust
HcSS, WHICH, Is supplemented ny
large amount Of ready capital; and
these requisites are sufficient to guaran-
tee success in any part of the world
where business can be transacted. Full
fledged as these gentlemen found them
selves, st. Paul was by no means the
first or only city visited. Indeed, it was
only after reviewing some ten or
dozen leading Western cities, and
thoroughly canvasSing the merits of
each, that st. Paul was selected as en-
bodying all the requisites of future
great commercial center. Once here,
the task of securing suitable business
location was the next question to be
solved, and it was only after months of
careful figuring that the present deSira-
bic location was secured. and the work
of remOdeling and improving COM
menced. Nearly $4,000 has been eX-
pended in the work to make the interior
of the store appear on scale equal to
the stock of goods it is TO contain. In
another column of this paper will be
found formal announcement of the in
tentionS of these gentlemen. One thing
is certain-their stock will be entirely
new, and has the benefit of careful
and experienced selection. There
ought to be no question as to what the
future of this enterprise will be. En-

"a WOMAN" of the marshalS. Sarah
got one hand free, and, before any one
could stop her, she aimed her pistol and
fired. No one was hit, but one of the
deputies had most narrow escape, and
before she could aim again the weapon
was wrenched from her and she was
handcuffed.
For the next five minutes she raved
around the rooms holding up her hand
cuffed hands, and shrieking: Give ME
back my pistol! Oh, give me back my
pistol!"
Terry, deprived of his knife, still
fought like maniac. 1t took the COM
bined efforts of the marShal'S. Office to
put the handouts on him. and then he
was put into the same room as his wife.
The pistol used by Sarah was a Brit
ish bulldog, SiX-chambered, loaded in
every chamber, and evidently bought
with the intention of using it if Justice
Fields decision was adverse. As she
faced the judge, when she made her
first speech, there was murder in her
eye. But in all her appearances
III various courts, she never looked
to so great advantage from
picturesque standpoint as she stood
up and defed the Judge. Her eyes
flashed fire, the wrinkles disappeared.
her face flushed blOOd-red over the
rouge, the veins stood out On her fore
head like whipcOTdS, and as she hurled
the words: ''H0w much were you paid
for that decisiOn?" she looked like an
Amazon defying her enemies. AS soon,
however. as the hand of the marshal
was placed upon her she collapsed. She
lost her dignity at once and became a
mere viragO.
Her first intention evidently was to
shoot Justice Field, and had she used
her pistol when she first rose in her
seat she would have done so. as she
was cool and collected. and the way
she fingered her pistol showed at
once her familiarity with the weapon.
Last month when the case was being
argued before these same judges Sarah
Althea was sitting at the reporters
table, and in conversation with one of
the Report staff she remarked:
Il have a pistol in this little bag, and
] have learned to use it. so don't you
forget it! Mark my words, if ever the
occasion should arise will use it, and
! know enough about taking aim not to
miss my mark"
She was evidently pointing at Justice
Field, and when she walked into court
this morning she had every intention
of carrying out her threat of a month
ago.

well as by her deep interest in the case,
she began, soon after the execution of
the anarchists, a "Review of the
Tumult," as it was to have been called,
in the form of book. What progress
she has made on this work is known
only to herself. Nothing has been
heard from it these many months, and
some of her closest friends believe that
she has laid the task aside for good.
She has been, until the issue was sus-
pended, a regular contributor to the
columns of the Labor Enquirer, but her
work in this line lay mostly in the way
Of translatiOns from French and German
papers.
Soon after her proxy marriage to Spies
it was reported that she had been diSin-
herlted by rich aunt residing in Pitts
burg. However this may be, reconcile
iation must have been brought about.
Whether the barrier has been removed
by the conversion of the aunt to Nina's
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1888-09-23

principles or Nina to the aunt's views is
not known, but it is not long ago that
Nina was a guest at the home of that
same aunt upon the invitation of the
latter.
Nina is a young lady of considerable
talent, and it is believed by some of her
admirers that she will yet make her
mark in literature. One of these now
connected with a labor publication eX-
pressed the belief that she had been for
months past engaged in writing story
of love and disaster, in which Spies is
the ideal hero and herself the unrequited
angel of mercy. If Nina is engaged
upon such a work and it ever comes to
the light, it will no doubt be vindica-
ton of Spies and his companions as far
as her power can go in that direction.

street the other day III a charming new
suit of white, with pretty-colored rib
bOns and a summer hat to match. She
exhibited no signs of mourning, and her
face wore bright, happy smile. She
