between Maryland and Virginia as
TO the boundary line at Hog Island,

is altogether i'll favor of the claim
of Maryland.
The difference between the two
States grew out of the leasing by

ginia had DO right to do this, as

contention, and the Governors OF
the two States referred the matter
TO Gen. Joseph B. Seth, of Mary
land and w. A. Jones, Of Virginia,
us commissioners, with MIR. Whit

referee. At a conference Mr. Seth
urged thatthe Virginia lire was at

the chart, which accompanied the
report of the arbitrators, and
which was a part off Mr.. Jones,

tended that this was not the true
line. which, in his opinion, would
throw Hog Island flats into Vir-
gina. MIR. Whiting af1irms the
correctness Of the line defined by
the Black commission. and there
tore decides in favor of Maryland.
Whether the Virginia Legislature
will abide by this decision and re-
peal the act leasing the flats to
Mr.. Lewis remains to be seen.

PROBABLY.

"The clock Of Mr.. WINDOWS earthly
greatness has probably recorded the
mark of high twelve" is the grandilo-
quent style in which the Duluth Trib-
une disposes of Mr.. WINDOWS senate
rial ambition. Fortunately for the Du-
luth editor, he qualified his classic dis
poSal of WINDOW by injecting the word
probably" into the sentence. He
leaves himself room to hedge, so to
speak. 1t was thought that the clock of
Mr.. WINDOWS earthly greatness had
recorded high noon when he was last
defeated for the senate. So firmly was
this impression fixed in the minds of
Minnesota politicians that when Mr..
WINDOW turned up in ST. Paul at the
Republican state convention in 1886 as
delegate from Winona there were none
so poor as to do him reverence. No
more attention was paid to him than il
he had never been in public life. He
sat in his seat all Gay, looking as lone
some as the new boy at the district
school. And yet there are men who sat
on the platform that day looking away
over Mr.. WINDOWS head. and apparent
~ not noticing his presence, who are to-
day making trips to Washington for the
sole purpose of currying favor with the
man who now dispenses federal patron
age in Minnesota. Circumstances alter
cases nightly. 1t is usually observed
that the man who holds the latch-key to
the postoffices. together with we'll
filled purse, will in time become the
idol of bis party.

A MODERN JAPHET.
Andrew Mcdonald in Search of a
Father and Sister.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.-To-day Andrew
Mcdonald, well-tc-do citizen of Frank
fort, Pa, and the superintendent of
the Friends asylum for the insane at
that place, called at police headQuar-
tiers. He wa Q in search of his father, a
sister aud brother. The story told by
him was of decidedly romantic nature.
In 1867 his father, Owen, his mother,
two sisters and two brothers came to
this city. Times were hard then with
the Mcdonald family, and on May 2 of
that year Andrew, who was six years
old, his brother Edward, nine, and his
sister Mary, still younger, were found
wandering on Mulberry street without
friends and home. They were picked
up by the police and sent to Ran
dall's island. Eleven days after
wards Andrew and Edward were taken
by the ChildreD's Aid society and put
on farm in Greenville, Park county, O..
There they remained until twenty-One
years of age. They had managed to
save small sum of money during their
apprenticeship, and shortly afterwards
bought farm, which is ,cared for by
Edward. A few years ago Andrew
began a search for his missing rela-
tives, and discovered one of his sis
tiers. living in Baltimore, married to
Chris Rhein. From her he learned
of the death of his mother, who had
died of a broken heart because of the
loss of her children, but that their
father was still alive in New York, as
was their brother Patrick, who had mar
ried, but she could give no clue to the
locality of their residences. The sister
said that when their mother learned
that her boys had been taken away by
the Children's Aid society, she made
every effort to find their where
abouts. but the officers of the
society declined to give any informa-
ton. When Andrew asked his sister as
to the whereabouts of their sister Mary,
she said that the little one had been
taken from Randali's Island and had
been placed with the Catholic sisters.
In 1884. according to the narrator's
story, she sent lady friend of hers to
the Home of the Good Shepherd to
learn if any trace of the lost one could
be had There she was told that Mary
was there, but could not b cen,
as she was in retirement. To-day, when
Andrew called at the institution, the
mother superior informed him that his
sister had left the institution in 1875.
This was in direct contradiction of the
story told to the lady who visited the
place in 1884. Mr.. Mcdonald Will con-
tinue the search for his relatives.
