suppose the law of succession aforc-
mentioned was II necessary feature of
my mut!icr':, domestic economy, for. she
was lett widow shortly after my
birth, without an abundance with
which to support the family. Maria,
than Hannah, was very 'nuar her in
size, and seldom had to suffer the infc-
licity of wearing her out5rown or ont
worn clothes. The fact OF lIannahs
having Il new article of dress or ;llorn-
mcnt was generally considered n suiii-
cicnt reason that Maria should have it.
Tom. being the only boy. was favored;
and he WAS the only one who was per-
inittcd anything like extravaganza in
dress. Ills cast-off garments were
given to our ncighbor, Mrs. Hobbs,
still poorer than we, to be converted
into garments for "thc little Iiobbscs,"

ST. LOUIS QUEER ROBBERY.
Detectives do Not Believe Banker Cam
bells wife's Story of the Affair.

Detectives do Not Believe Banker Camp
bells wife's Story of the Affair.
The st. Louis detectives have been at work
on a mysterious robbery of the residence of
Banker James Campbell in that city, and have
made some very queer developments.
When Mr. Campbell returned home on Fri
day night he found his wife in dead faint
bound hand and foot and gagged. When re-
stored she told of the visit of pair of masked
robbers SO thoroughly disguised that she could
not even tell their color. They bound and
gagged her. and then she watched them rob
the room. The principal thing stolen was s255
in cash. On her story negro named Burrell
was arrested and is still in custody, but denies
any knowledge of the affair. Late Saturday
night Luther Johnson, for whom the police
were looking. surrendered himself and proved
u perfect ai,bi.
Then he told the police strange story TO the
effect that he was for nine months in Nh. Camp
bells employ. He intimates that Mrs. Camp
bell is at times subject to attacks OF insanity,
On the day he began service at the Campbell
mansion Mrs. Cam, bell charged John Jones
with stealing $40 and had the boy searched. At
| another time she claimed to have lost valua-
Bile diamond ring. johnson insists that Mary
ONeil. another servant, informed him that
later Mrs. Campbell had admitted to her that
| she had lost neither money or ring.
Detectives Lawler and McGrath state they do
not believe Mrs. Campbell was robbed. In sup
port Of this they make o detailed report COLI
| corning the circumstances, showing that it was
an absolute impossibility for the robbers to
have entered as described, and that the rob-
berry, if it occurred, was perpetrated by some
one in the house.
Mr.. Campbell called at police headquarters
late last night and requested that the negro,
Russell, be released, SO that now there is no
| one in custody and no clue as to who bound
and gagged the lady and robbed the house.
Mr.. Campbell insisted that some one robbed his
house, but could give the detectives nothing To
work on, and they have practically dropped the
case. Mrs. Campbell, since telling her story to
the detectives, has refused to make any further
! statement
