Van Wrinkle, for fifteen years supposed to
be dead, to-day ate Thanksgiving dinner
with his mother and sister here. Eighteen
years ago the Van Wrinkles lived in Blu
cyrus, O., where the father was a news
paper man. One day William, aged fifteen,
left home and the only word heard from
him since was about fifteen years ago, when
word came that he had been killed by In
dams. Five years later, the father having
died, Mrs. Van Wrinkle and daughter came
to Fort Wayne. Two days ago the son re-
turned to his mother and to-day there was
happy Thanksgiving in the Van Wrinkle
family. The son had grown wealthy in Mon
tana, but decided to go to Klondike and in
October started East to visit his relatives
and only after several weeks did he locate
them. He left tonight to visit brothers in
Columbus, o., and Louisville before going

to a deadlock, the Cortes is to be the arbiter
of the question at issue.
Prime Minister SagaSta received over one
hundred dispatches from persons and or

the scheme must soon cease. Naturally

TUBE OF DYNAMITE FOUND NEAR
THE DOOR OF HIS CONSULATE.
Considered a Joke, but All the Same
the Authorities of Havana Have
Taken Precautions.

joke. The man arrested is believed to be

it was found. But, in order to guard against
any possibilities, the Spanish officials are
taking precautions to guard the consulate
