PRESIDENT Polk is beginning TO call
things by their right names At Eliza
beth City, Va, last Thursday, he said ::
They talk about politics The alliance is

THE opinion of persons engaged in the
Gillian trade is that Chill is disposed to
fight, and this is the reasonable infer
ence from what is reported respecting
the position of the provisional govern
ment. 1t was hardly to have been ex-
pected that the junta would Immediately
acCede to the demand of the United
States. 1t is natural that it should make
SOM concession TO the popular dislike
Of this country, in which its members
presumably share, and in order to retain
public respect and confidence it was per-
haps necessary to assume a defiant atti-
tude. 1t does not follow, however, that
this means an intention to fight. Still it
would not be wise to conclude that Chill
will not fight. She has a considerable
navy, the people know little of the re-
sources of this country and are inflated
with the idea of their W military
proves, and it is quite probable that
they fancy they would have the support
Of England in case of a war with the
United States.

HAPPINESS AT LAST.

For years they have battled with diff
culties During all this time John and
Miss Craig kept up correspondence until
ia November, 1890, Miss Craig was
agreeably surprised at the sudden and
unexpected appearance in his native city
of John Wickland, who bore the joyful
intelligence that bis family, their fortune
restored, would soon be in their old home.
How was it2
This happy termination came ont in
this wise: a man named johnson located
himself at Mcconnell as "a merchant,
running a plantation and supply store.
His wealth in ready money was the talk
Of the town. He sold goods rapidly and
made money hand over fist. He took
great interest in the Wicklands and
seemed to evince especial interest in the
facts relating to their robbery and utter
ruin. 1t finally came out that johnson
had been a prison bird and the cold
shoulder was turned to him by Lucy
Wickland, to whom he was paying at
tention. This seemed to nettle him, and
he sent for the old gentleman to come to
him.
Their interview lasted two hours. At
length johnson confessed that it was he
who had robbed Wickland of his wealth,
and coming to this country had trebled
his possessions. He gave the old man
his check for $4,000. SO soon as this
happened the Wlcklands decided to re-
turn to their native land. When John
son heard Of their determination he in
SISTED on paying their passage back to
Scotland.
The strangest feature Of the affair was
that johnson Immediately sold out all
his belongings and went back to Scot
land month after the family of Wick
land had returned, and letter from him
TO friend announcing his marriage to
Miss Lucy Wickland, eldest daughter of
the man whom he had robbed, has been
received.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

RESTITUTION AT LAST.
THE RESTORATION OF A STOLEN
FORTUNE BY THE THIEF.

Ceremony That Was Delayed Many
fears-Hardships OF Family That
Had Been Robbed-The Rascal AIarries
oae Of the Daughters.
The truth of the old saying that fort
una fsvors those who wait has again
been illustrated in the case of Lal Wick
Land, an old man 60 years CT age, and an
empIoye of the Illinois Central railroad
at Mcconnell, some fifty miles north of
Milan, Tenn. The story reads like a
romance. There resided in the CITY of
Aberdeen, Scotland, seventeen years ago
a rich and prosperous jeweler, Mr.. I.al
land Wlckham, man of family, which
consisted of himself, his wife, three sons
and three daughters.
The name of the eldest son was John
and he was engaged to young LADY of
MS native city by the name of Craig, one
OF the foremost Of the beautiful Scotch
maidens Of Aberdeen. Their marriage
was only deferred on account of some
business transactions.
one day Wickland burst into his wife's
room, greatly agitated, and exclaimed.
MARY, we are ruined-utterly ruined,
The shop has been broken into and at
Ietsl 4l2,OUO worth of plate and jewelry
earned OIL. L have been with the de-
oecuVes through all the holes in the CITY.
but we found no trace of the thief or of
the goods. The detectives think the
goods will never be discovered. and we
are ruined II 1t Is So" When this rob-
berry occurred John Wickland was in
London, and he read the news in a Lon
don newspaper. He hurried home and
found the family in the greatest distress.
SEEKING A NEW FORTUNE.
For many days the Wicklands indulped
themselves in the hope that some clew
would be found to the robbers and their
precious wealth be restored to them
These hopes were never realized. The
robbery, as the police said, had been
cleVerly and cleanly done. No trace of
the perpetrators or any part of the prop
erty was ever discovered.
In the meantime Wickland had maid
all his outstanding debts, and found
himself pauper without q sixpence. He
might havo urged the robbery as a plea
for bankruptcy, but he was too conscien-
tlous ever to think of such course so
he paid his debts to the last penny. The
utter ruin which had overtaken the
Wieklsnds postponed the proposed union
between John and Miss Craig. and Mr..
Wieklaild struggled on for few years.
his son John assisting him all the while,
but they could not even make living.
1t seemed that fate was against him.
About this time thousands of people
were leaving the I'D countries of Europe

lie left New York and went to St.
Louis. When they arrived in that city,
some fifteen years ago, they had very
little left. The boys found employment
as hands on the railroad. In 1888 they
came to Cairo, Ills, and the boys stayed
there, while the old gentleman secured a
position further south, at Mcconnell, as
track walker and keeper of the tanks in
that vicinity.
