As Though from the Grave.

Thursday there was an affecting TO
union of q mother and child after long
separation. Twenty years ago, in Buff
falo, resided Mr.. and Mrs. White and
their 5-year-old daughter. There was
trouble, and husband and wife separated.
White, retaining possession OF the child,
removed to Bedford, o. There the little
one was brought up in the belief that her
mother was dead.
Years passed away, and both White
and his wife married again. White mar
ried Bedford woman, and there was a
large family Of children. Mrs. White
became the wife of wealthy business
man. The years brought no little ones,
and the mothers heart yearned after her
daughter Lille. She once heard that
White had moved to Bedford, and after
that there were only vague and indef-
mite rumors. After while she heard
that her daughter was dead and she gave

in Kansas City, Mo.
His prospects were fattering and the
pair moved there. A short time ago q
lady artist engaged in Kansas City met
the former Mrs. White. Learning that
the artist had resided in Bedford, the
mother questioned her and found that
her former husband still lived there.
Much to her joy she learned that her
daughter was not dead, but had grown
to be a handsome young woman, had
married and lived in Cleveland. Her
husband shortly afterward was called to
the east on business, and, before going,
promised to look up the daughter.
Arriving in this city he easily found
her, and telegraphed to the anxiously
waiting mother in Kansas City, Lilly
is here" That same afternoon the moth
er started for Cleveland. She was driven
straight to the residence Of Joseph Cow

GalIantry of the Sioux.

A correspondent who has just returned
from Pine Ridge agency tells story of
the visiting Sioux Indians who are now
in Washington.
Reading of the reception the Indians
received in church Sunday, and the fact
that they attended the theatre Monday
evening, recalls funny incident that
happened when they were in Chicago en-
route to Washington. The manager who
has charge of the visiting Indians
thought he would amuse them by taking
them to the theatre in the evening. He
never for moment thought thattragedy
would rouse the warlike nature of
which the Sioux is so abundantly en-
dowed. Well, he got them into several
boxes all right, and everything went
well until the third act.
1.-THE play was q heavy tragedy. and
in this act the heroine was to be killed.
The minute the villain attempted to
strike the woman with knife three Of
the Sioux rose from their seats and act
ually prepared to leap over the boxes
onto the stage for the purpose Of rescu-
ing the heroine. The theatre was soon
in an uproar, and it was only by remov-
ing the three refractory Indians from the
theatre that the actors could proceed.
That also explains why they were taken
to see light opera in Washington. -

The well known epicurean taste of

to satisfy the appetite in an Inexpensive
manner. In 1852 Frenchman invented
and obtained a. patent on process for

ordinary still wine and pour into it a
certain quantity of Dutch bronze
powder" The waiter then is instructed
to shake the bottle violently before serv-
ing it to the customer. This, the in
ventor says, twill disturb the brilliant
particles Of powder, causing them to cir
culate through the wine, giving it the
appearance Of high grade sparkling

known as bimuriate of stannan, and is
