tive a large-hearted but diSSolute comrade
named Mcqueen kept cropping up, and the
pair were able TO render each other valuable
assistance.
For his successful carrying out of the ex-
pedition Chaplain Simmons received the

heightened by the dramatic manIer..i in which

The Husband sera Tran.

For some time past rumor has been busy
with the names of John Castle, farmer
living six miles from Cass City, Mich.. and
his neighbor's wife, Mrs. Walter Richards.
Richards heard the rumor, and ordered
Castle to stay away from his home, but
Castle paid no attention to the command.
Last night Castle started for Richards
house, but never reached there alive. As
he entered the farm gate he stepped into
trap prepared for him by Richards, and
was shot by a spring gun. The heavy
charge of buckshot with which the gun was
loaded entered his leg and severed an ar
terry, and he died in fifteen minutes. Rich
ards denies that he set the gun for Castle,
and says he set it for some horse thieves
that had been hanging around his place
lately. He told another story, however, to
the officers who arrested him, and said it
was set for an incendiary. He is now in
Jail. and his wife will not talk. The actions
of Mrs. Richards ana Castle have been the

WHAT WAS 1T 2
A Blushing Girl, wrIggIIng Bundle and

A B1ushing Girl, WriggIIng Bundle and
an UnsOlYed Secret.
A good-loOking young woman, blushinR
furiously and carrying a queer-s haped bum
die. walked along Washington street this
afternoon. The package was quite large
and was wrapped up entirely in dark
shawl. Inside was evidently some living
creature which was Objecting with all its
strength to such total eclipse. 1t made
not sound, but kept up constant lunging
and pitching about. At one moment it
would make heave to the left, the next il
would plunge wildly to the right, and then
almost in the wink Of an eye IL would throw
Itself upward.
The young woman's attention and skill
were all required TO hold on to the bundle
She was seen occasionally to furtively pat
1t, with an evident soothing design, but
whatever it was inside was not to be cajOled
by any such manifestations of affection.
The thing inside was not baby; that was
clear. 1t was too round and short for a
baby; besides. baby would have been
making the welkin ring with wailing under
such conditions. The more the object
heaved and tossed the more the people on
the street stared and grinned, and the more
they stared the redder the young woman
blushed.
Men who pride themselves on the total
absence of curiosity from their natures de-
liberately stopped and looked back after
the girl with her animated bundle. Women
smiled, or sneered, or pitied according to
their varying degrees of kindliness and
courtesy. Everybody wondered what, in
the name of sense, the young woman had in
the bundle and most everybody remarked
as much to some one else. The bearer, the
bushes, the bundle and the secret. however,
went'on westward and disappeared and the
mystery is still unexplained.
