She Has An Affecting Meeting With Her
Husband.
CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-Very affecting was
the meeting in Chicago yesterday be-
tween Mrs Annie III. Gardner. of Area
dia, Neb., and her husband The woman
has become known during the past
month on account of her mysterious dis
appearance from the Christian Endeavor
convention in Boston. She was found
by ]. w. Lauders, a friend OF the
family, while she was serving as a do
mestic at Norwich, Conn.
Mr.. Landers telegraphed to Mr.. Gard
ner and the latter reached Chicago
short time before Mrs. Gardner and
Landers came from the east After an
affecting meeting, the husband and wife
went to the Palmer house, at which hotel
they will stay while Mrs. Gardner is IN
der medical treatment
Mrs. Gardner shows the effect of the
illness which resulted in her disappear
ance. She is wan and pale but is con-
valescing. She talks but little and sees
no visitors. The welfare of her children
worries her greatly.
Mrs. Gardner's erratic actions are said
to be due to a chronic ailment which the
long rail journey to Boston aggravated.
She says an uncomfortable desire seized
her during the convention to seek an
asylum away from her friends. She
never intended to return to Arcadia and
wished to take up her residence at san
itarium in which she could receive treat
ment.
With this idea in view she sought
Norwiehtown Green, suburb of Nor
witch, and took service as a domestic IN
der the name of Dorothy Mansfield,
How she was discovered by Mr.. Landers
has already been told in these dis

Which Charles Robinson, His Bitter Enc
my, COncurred In.
A bundle containing some interesting
papers has been received by Secretary
Adams of the State Historical society.
They are from Charles A. Foster, one of
the founders of Osawatomie and one of
the friends of Jim Lane.
Among them is an interesting letter
from Lane in which the plan to defeat
the Lecompton constitution is unfolded.
Strange to say Governor Robinson en-
dorsed the plan as outlined by Lane,
though they were bitter enemies.
Following is copy of the letter, which
is in Lanes handwriting, and with the
endorsement of Governor Robinson:
LAWRENCE, Dec. 81, 1857.
Gents-We have concluded to 60 into
the election on Monday. 1t is confident
~ expected that you will nominate good
and true men as candidates for the leg
islature and elect them-men that will
never qualify under the Lecompton
swiudle
By pursuing this course we can stran-
gle the internal thing if a corrupt con-
gress should accept it
1t is hoped that not single vote will
be lost against the constitution.
Yours, ]. Fl. LANE.
To o. c. Brown. Charles A Foster, Col
Williams.

every voter will be on hand and seize the

stroying it. G. ROBINSON.

ST JOINS, N. F. Aug. 9-The fs hery
news from Labrador where the Cod fish

encouraging, and prospects are excellent
for the largest fishery in many years.
Many large dealers have twice as much
fish as last year. The shore dealers as
we'll as the green fish catchers, are Sc
curing good fares and many have used
all their salt so that shipments are being
made from here, fearing that the fish
may be ruined. The shore fishery along
the western coast is nearly over, and was
much above the aveeage. The Lobster
fishing was also successful

This would not suffice, continues the
consul, unless the center of gravity was

Not Liberal Enough.

been in New York for week trying TO
adjust the contract with the American Re-
duction Company. came homo yesterday.
Mr.. Holton will arrive to-day. While In
New York the indianapolis officials had
long interview with samuel I. Roosevelt.
president of the reduction company Both
Mayor Denny and Mr.. Holton asked the
president 10 sign the garbage contract as
made by the company's representative. j.
p. Campbell. Mr. Roosevelt contended that
the company should receive more than xl2.-
90 year for the collection OF the city
garbage. He admitted that Mr. Campbell
had broad power i'm negotiating for BUSH
ness, but he thought he hal male too
great concession when he agreed TO cell
lect indianapolis garbage for $1,000 year.
Mr.. Roosevelt was in Europe when the
contract made. He said his company
would be willing TO lose $500 5000
feared they could not collect the garbage
here for less than $4,000 or 5000. Mr.
Roosevelt based his opinion on the state
ment of a Pittsburg hauling contractor.
who was about TO furnish the garbage for
one of the company's plants in that city.
Mayor Denny thought that the calculations
OF the Pittsburg contractor should not apply
to Indianapolis. On the way home the Off
Gals had a consultation with the Pittsburg
man. and arranged for him TO visit Indian
apolis soon and look over the city.
