THE oEARMAN MYSTERY.
A Story OF Mistaken Identity THvoIvins

the Dead and the living.
IL have heard Of a great many cases
Of mistaken Identity" said an Ulster
county IN. " lawyer, but never Of
one quito rs remarkable as that of John
Dearman of Old Hurley, in my county
Ten years ago John Dear,nan married
Katherine Crispell, well co do farmers Q
daughter. Soon afterward he took to
drink and in time abused his wife
shamefully. Five years ago she deter
mined to have him arrested for i'll treat
ing her, but he disappeared before she
carried out her intention
Mrs. Dearman heard nothing Of her
husband after he went away, but n year
or so later she read in n newspaper an
account Of the discovery Of the body Of
a man in the Hudson river, near New
burg. The description of the drowned
man was so much like that Of her miss
ing husband that she went 20 Newburg
to see if the body was his It had been
buried when she gOs there. She showed
to the coroner, the physicians who had
held the post mOrtem and to others who
had seen the body photograph Of her
husband, and every one at once pro-
nounced it that of the dead man.
Mrs Dear1an had the body disin-
terred in order that she might herself
see the face and make sure that it was
her husband. She recognized the body
at once, and the further fact that the
dead man had two front teeth missing
just as her husband had, made the iden-
tification the more positive. She TO
moved the body to her home and had it
reinteEred.
"A year or so ago Mrs. Dearman
married John Branthover and removed
with him to Albany, where they now
live, prosperous and happy. One day last
week, to the amazement Of everybody
who had known him, John Dearman,
long supposed dead and buried, returned
to Old Hurley. There could be no mis-
take as to his identity. Too many cir
cumstances proved that he was the true
John Dearman. The story Of his sup
posed drowning was told to him, and
the grave where it was believed he had
been lying these four years was shown
to him. He also learned that his wife
had remarked and had moved away,
and no said:
q It's all right. 1 deserve it
''Then he walked away and hasn't
been seen since. But who was the man
who was drowned, identified and buried
as John Dearman?"

THEY WANT INFORMATION.

The ARDMoREITE has been
handed a couple of letters by
postmaster Hammer, one from
Vermont and the other from
Magnolia, Ark. The writer's de-
sire information regarding this
country with view not only to
locating themselves but colonies.
The one from arkansas is par
ticularly interesting and after
preliminaries is as follows:
''Mr. Stark, a heavy cotton
buyer will go to your city to To-
cate as 1t has been highly recon-
mended to him. There are a
good many here who want to join
him; c ,rpenters, shoemakers and
especially tailors. Will you be
so kind as to let me know by re-
turn mail with what apparent
success to US you could recon-
mend the move. In a live
town with untold future posi-
biilties, there is always room for
men who are skilled in their bus
mess or trade and we regard this
as particularly true of Ardmore.
While we would not take the res
possibility of advising our Ark
ansas and Vermont information
seekers to come along without in
vestigating, we feel confident if
they do so they will find their op-
portunities for success much bet
ter than in the country from
which they write.

Will some one please rise an d
explain why Oklahoma territory
does not produce men good
enough to fill her appointed Of
fees. The kick is not because
the ones now in office are unsat-
isfectory; as a class they are all
right, but that is a side issue.
But why does Grover in his inf
mite wisdom go to Georgia, ILL
nois, Texas, North Carolina and
any other place but Oklahoma TO
seek his favored appointees?
Talk about home rule in Oklaho-
ma! Is it to be wondered at that
If we do not have satisfactory
courts and territory government
when all the appointed officers are
imported from other states? At
present there are no more ap-
pointments that can be made for
the territory, but when there are
we need not be surprised if is
Queen Lii or John Walleror some
one else on whom this admins
tration wishes to smile. But Ok
lahoma should be patient and
take whatever she can get as
long as she has no men of her
own capable of filling these po-
sitions.-Oklahoma City Star.

LlJE'S BIBLE GLASS.
&c Has Become Ono OF the Religious In
stitutions OF Omaha

&c Has Become Ono OF the Religious In
stitutions OF Omaha
Speaking of churches reminds me
that Elijah Halford's Bible class has
become one of the great institutions of
the town. When he lived in Indinnapo-
lis and edited Tho Journal for the Hon
John c. New, Lie had Bible class in
the Methodist church that was almost as
large as the average attendance at morn
ing service. On rainy Sundays, or dur
ing the hot weather. when the brethren
didn't feel we'll enough TO 90 to church,
they could always be depended upon to
turn up after the benediction for Sun
day school and listen to Lie HalfOrd ex.
pound the Scriptures, as no could do
better than any preacher or layman
south of the Wabash river.
When he went to Washington, that
Bible class disinteRrated, and Lilo didn't
start one there because he was 50 bur
dened with the cares Of state. But when
he went to Omaha as brand new major
and paymaster in the army the first
thing he did after getting measured for
his uniform and unpacking his trunk
was to organize q class in the First
Methodist church that isn't equaled for
numbers and general intelligence-ex-
cept perhaps by the one Mr.. Wanamaker
conducts in Philadelphia-in the whole
land. There are 235 members-all men
and some Of the wisest and the most
learned of the population answer there"
as Lie calls the roll every Sunday
morning. No fatigue or business en-
gagements, no storm or cold or heat, can
kecn them away, for when Lie Halford
commences to expound Scripture it is
worth COINS long journey to hear him
talk.-Omaha Cur. Chicago Record.
