Remarkable Adventures of James Hall,

New Years day was celebrated in a very
happy fashion at the home of James hall, q
well-tO-dO laboring man, who has recently
fitted up cosy home in this city, says
Boston special to the New York Press.
Hall and his wife Mary were married fifteen
years ago aud for five years they celebrated
every New Years day together During
this period two little ones were born to
them, and there was no more contented
family among the middle classes Of the New
England metropolis. Hall was a sailor
then. A few days after the fifth anniver-
sary OF his wedding he shipped on GlOu-
cester vessel, commanded by CAPTAIN George
Steel. for fishing trip to the Western
Banks.
During the first few days fishing the crew
was remarkably successful. Fish were
Plentiful and all looked forward to an early
return home During the third days fish
ing Hall and fellow-sailor were sent out
IN a dOry alone to trawl the travis. A
heavy fog set in, and when 1t lifted the
men could not get sight of their
vessel anywhere. Night set in with in
tense cold. Halls mate was unable to endure
the weather. and frOZe to death sitting in
the stern of the dory. Hall threw the corpse

did So he said, to resist the temptation to
drink his mates blood, for lie was intensely
thirsty ami there was no water For days
he drfted about in the dOry, living on raw
fish. Finally he was picked up by New
Bedford brig bound for whaling cruise in
the Arctic
1t was five years before he was able to re-
turn to Boston. Skipper Steel had re-
ported his loss when his boat returned from
her fishing trip, and Halls wife and his
friends had long since given him up for
dead. Three wears after his disaDDsSr-
ance Mrs. Hall married man named
Wnsor, and with ner new husband and
her children moved West to Kansas.
When Hall reached home he learned
his wife'S history. lie had 5000, his wages
received on the Arctic cruise, and at once
went West in search of his wife. He found
her living happily with her new husband.
One night he looked in at the window and
saw tile family at their evening meal. 81

muttered stoically, as he wiped a big tear
from his eye; Il will get work near by aud
wait till her husband dies"
He kept his word. For ten years he
worked within ten miles OF his wife, keep
ing his secret and watching the growth and
development of his children. II saved
money" he said, and if anything had gone
wrong with them she should have had IT,"
Last November Wnsor died. Hall at
tended the funeral, and few days later
wrote note TO his wife. AT first she did
not believe il. but when he called all doubts
! were dspelled. She welcomed him like
one given back from the grave.
On November 30th Mr.. and Mrs. Hall
were married the second time and soon
after they came East again. New Year S
day was the first New Years day of their
second honeymoon.

LITERATURE.

RoDGER LATIMER's MISTAKE By
Kathrine DOnelson. Chicago: Laird & Lee,
Cloth. 378 pp., ST. "ROdger Latimer's
Mistake" is novel of unusual force, and
Is story that is told in a manner that
makes every reader feel a deep interest in
the several characters, one that does not
wane until the last chapter is read, and it
is ascertained that the principal character
was forgiven by the woman he had cruelty
treated for the mistake he made. The
work is not one of the ordinary kind, but it
Is written with lofty purpose, and the
author while furnishing a work of fiction
presents an artistic, graphic, sparkling and
fascinating picture of social life at the pres
ent time. The scenes are laid partly in
chicago and its enVirOns, and partly in
Europe. The story shows the fOibes and
the strength of social life, the IN race for
wealth and position, as we'll as the rare and
beautiful home life, which with a modest
competence creates an earthly paradise.
The pure home life. simple and exquisite,
winch IS presented in these pages Is the re-
suit Of careful study Of the subject, and
IS a picture that is seldom given in a work
OF hctlon. The love story running through
the pages is beautiful and pat hetic, and the
plot indicates dramatic power of high or

gIet having taken up to read.

HARRISON'S DEFEAT.
The President Did Not Favor y High
Tsrin Foley.

1ariH Ioltcy.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15-Presiden,
Harrison, discussing the defeat OF the
republicans, says: at was due mainly
to the position of the party on the tariff
question. The republicans had forced
this issue 10 an extreme, which evident.
ly did not meet with the approval of the
people
There was a strong belief that the
Force bill issue kept the solid south
within the old lines, but Il did moro
than that, for il brought to the support
of the democratic ticket many votes in
the north"
What he wanted them TO do, the
president said, and what he underworld
10 impress upon them was the absolute
necessity of keeping the republican
states in line and carrying New York.
lie had realized for some time past
that the drift of public sentiment was
against him and his party, and it was
this that led him to force this advice
upon the party lenders The disregard
of this advice had much to do with the
result of last Tuesday. The presiden,
realized, before any of the election re-
turns came in Tuesday, that he was a
defeated man.
THE verdict last Tuesday, the presi'
dent says, could be construed in but
one way. IL meant a condemnation OF
the extreme high tariff policy OF the
republicans. The inevitable result. II
the party was TO hope for a renewal of
power, was modification of its posi-.
tion, but not denunciation altogether
of the protective tariff policy, which
has been the keynote of every repub-
lican campaign for many years past"
