plug off at any ports if he so desired,
and at noon to-day he sailed on the
Pacific Mail steamer Colima.
Mr.. Center. it appears, left Yoko-
hama even more suddenly than he did

Cover Robinson, in which Center
was about to play the part OF the las>
ter and Paymaster Charles NJ. Ray OF

society, as we'll as at homo. Being
bright, vivacious and entertaining,
her society was much sought after by
people OF the upper circle, where she
was queen.
Her husband is handsome, high
toned gentleman, With every oonfi-

better than to see her enjoying her
self in accordance with her owu sweet
will.
Nothing within the bounds of pro-

where they resided happily.
Mr.. Ray was soon aherward as

quaintance with the lady.

Center was seen by Post represen,
